If I were MU, I'd be the one with tears. No titles = sad pants.

Apparently it's overrated. We have no titles and were taken by a better conference. You guys are powerhouses and didn't even get a sniff. Tough sledding, there.

Taken as bait. Your soft ass "program" is gonna get eaten alive in the SEC.

Yeah, that SEC East is a real killer. And remember to put on the really red lipstick for Bevo. They like that shade down in Texas.

Oh well.

Oh believe me, as soon as Tech fired him, I wanted Bill to step down right then & there so we could grab him. I think our fanbase wouldn't be too thrilled with it, though what with the "baggage" & all...

Snyder is winning through the smartest football I think I've ever seen. Simple, effective, boring shit that just refuses to backfire. They never hurt themselves at all.

Leach, OTOH, is a mad gunslinger that sees turnovers as a fact of life. He and Snyder would have been at each other's throats. Further, I wonder if that KSU defense has enough talent to make up for the amount of time they'd be on the field and the short fields they'd have to deal with w/ fair frequency.

They just don't seem to work together.

This is true. But I honestly think Leach is perfectly fine with a bad defense that gets the offense right back on the field. Think he'd rather take his chances by scoring 50+ per game with a bad defense than score 30-40 with an average defense.

I know that doesn't really make a lot of sense, but it kinda fits Leach's style IMO.

Precisely why I wanted him as OC for a couple of years before taking over. Defense is his last concern. If he starts out with an at least average defense, think of the possibilities.....

I am not a big MU fan, but I am pretty sure they have won National Titles in other sports before..

And to most, basketball titles mean about as little as bad-mitten, they are there to bide time until football season..

Mos definitely.
