Recruiting Forum Football Talk XLIX

[Orange And Garnet]

This would be a fantastic hire. Make it happen!!!

 

[drvenner]

What is great about this potential Leach hire is that we are divided. Some of us like him and some of us do not. What this actually means is that Bruin and drylo will pop a blood vessel trying to figure out which side to argue against.

 

[jordan4vols]

Gimmick offense, zero defense, running game an after thought.

Y’all thought Chaney with Dooley was bad? ... just wait

To even say that after their games against USC and Stanford shows me you know zero about what you’re talking about.

 

[BruinVol]

Absolute hate the hire. That style will not win in the SEC.


I am a true Fan and will support him with all my energy and I damn sure won't hit social media complaining about a guy that is just plain ole Wierd.

 

[jjay2518]

Yes he does. He also throws to his RBs a lot. Look at his RBs rush and Rec yards this year.

Yep. Kamara would have be nasty in his offense.

 

[Face]

Freaking hire Lane Kiffin. Its that simple

Mike is one of maybe 5 guys who beats Lane Kiffin with offensive scheme.

 

[InVOLuntary]

He keeps gillespie and gets a good d staff he will be aces.

Don't know much about that d coordinator but he seems to be highly thought of. If he gets the HC gig, obviously Leach would have to get a top notch guy for that. Maybe steel will come home?

Mike Leach tells me tonight that “I'm on my way.” Leach interviewed for the Tennessee job today.

 

[theutvolunteers]

probably next year

🤷*♂️

 

[DD4ME]

There has ever been a more perfect match for the Tennessee fanbase. He’s as bat**** crazy as we are.

General Neyland meets Captain Crazy

Leach will be entertaining at least. Really interesting to see what he does with the resources. He won at high level at two places nobody wins at, nobody wants to go to and with limited resources.....don't know how he would do in recruiting being so quirky

Isn't this the Mullen argument?

Would be an entertaining hire for sure!

*Edit* I messed up the quote. Have no idea where it went, that was response to someone asking me why I do not and have not liked Leach

Who would you hire?

If that style pounds USC and beats Stanford. I think it will be fine.

 

[theutvolunteers]

Fack Kiffin he was the genesis of the poop.

 

[crazyguy]

how long until the media brings up the James kid thing. I never though Leach was in the wrong, and craig james is a douche.

 

[CoaxialOrange]

Get behind Leach, don't show your ass. The arguments against ShiaNO and Doeren aren't there. We need someone that can do more with less, he will recruit better here, but we are at a structural disadvantage against Florida and Georgia. I think he will be able to make it work. Best hire we've made since Fulmer.

If we actually hire him I'll get behind him. My only concern is can he recruit here?

It worked for Petrino.

We dislike most in others what we see in ourselves

 

[AAVFL]

You do realize that coaches not named Butch Jones adjust based on what they have to do to succeed, right?

Leach is an X and O freak and could easily develop run schemes to suit the SEC.

The job he has done at wasu is nothing short of amazing. If people wanted Brohm, or Morris, or Frost this guy is right there with them with consistent success at doormat programs.

 

[amazingGRACE]

I don't think they've had a RB break 100 yards rushing in a game all year.

Most box scores Morrow was the leader with somewhere around 50-80 yards. Yikes.

 

[nicksjuzunk]

Consider this... Currie is still your AD. Haslam still has the University by the balls.

They desperately tried to trot out Schiano & Doeren in front of you.

No one wants to coach under Currie, and Haslam is going nowhere.

Mike Leach is a crazy bird, but he is probably the best thing you can get now

 

[BleedorangeinGA]

For some reason people like Leach... smh ridiculous

Again, anyone complaining after what we went through this morning is just not right in the head.

Football is about to be fun again.

 

[Lovesomebigorange]

I hate it- what a strange fit for Tennessee when we had far better options. Yuck.
