Any school will then be clear to hire him and he'll have his pick of available jobs. He might wait until a sufficently better job becomes available, which might not happen this offseason. Or he might jump to the NFL (OC, etc).

Those are the only reasons he won't be coaching D1 next season, IMO.

Is it because Leach is so damned funny looking, like Howdy Doody mated with Chuck Woolery?

Leach's circus show in the NFL? Interesting. I'd like to see him pull his lock you in a room trick with the big boys.

I also don't understand how he could have been that cramped in this shed:

You really think that is the issue?

I'd bet TT fans would wildly disagree with you at the moment. They'd much rather have Leach than the $12M. My guess is that the AD wins the battle in his view (as you described).

But if the boosters feel the same way as the fans seem to, the AD will end up losing his job over this whole thing. As the boosters will be needed to pay the next coaches salary. Of course, given that Sonny Dykes is in line for that job, and I'd bet he has a lot of boosters in his corner given his success and his name, that too might just work itself out.

How about disputing my claim, dipshit?

Oh yes, when I said TT I meant the administration not the fans. As to what the boosters want, I have no idea.

As I said, we'll see.

I think it's going to be difficult for this entire thing to be resolved in time for him to be hired AND it's going to be a difficult sell to a university president and boosters.

Having this deal splattered all over ESPN isn't going to help Leach's cause, either.

I guess it depends on how he adapts his coaching appraoch to "grown men".

He's cooked.

They claim it was "with cause". That's for a judge to rule on or for them to negotiate.

So we are protesting this heavily.. and the administration is going to feel a wrath like no other. We (students, alumni) have pretty much said that ALL financial support is gone until Myers, and Bailey, and maybe even Hance resign. This is disgraceful.. can't even make Aggy jokes because we are the true tards of Texas.

You're still better than A&M. Those folks are weird.
