The defense is much improved this year because of their 1st year DC, former Mizzou assistant (and Gary Pinkel's nephew) Alex Grinch.

Would love to see Leach bring Air Raid to Columbia along with Grinch. I know some folks that are pretty good friends with the family, and in talking with them it was pretty funny how Leach has handled the defense. As some have said, he is completely hands off and wants zero to do with gameplanning, scouting, etc. His whole focus is on the offense. Basically his goals for the defense are:

Phase 1: Get me the damn ball.
Phase 2:
Phase 3: Profit!

If they hadn't choked away their first game to an FCS team, they'd be 9-3. Lost by 6 at Cal and 2 vs Stanford and won on the road at UCLA. They're legit.

that games still pisses me off. kicker makes FIVE field goals in the game and misses the game winning one at the end that would have won it by one.

it's truly AMAZING what leach has done at Wazzu with the players he has there. He flew down to meet with jacob eason recently. imagine if he had 4 and 5 star players in the south... he's got luke falk in the heisman discussion.

luke falk! who had all of 2 offers from schools:
LINK

2015 Season
418-591
4266 yards
70.7%
7.22 per attempt
36 TD's
8 int's

and that's playing only in 11 games. he took a NOBODY from utah and developed him into shredding the PAC 12.

ETA: Mike Leach won co-coach of the year for the pac 12
