No. The reset button was hit on the search. Nobody told Currie to interview him. He went out to WSU in a buddys plane, not the UT plane. Hence fired.
I never thought it was even possible. No way they let that guy walk around Neyland acting like a pirate. Lol
Yes, according to an article I just read on SI.com.
I think he should be. I think his public nuttiness throws some off, but if you watch those videos of him in a locker room, he does not mince words. He is straight up and down like 6 o clock with his guys. We need that on the hill. After limp wrist Butch, these guys need some discipline and encouragement. Leach can supply both those qualities along with humor.
I sure as heck hope he's still in the running. We could (and have done) much, much worse. Leach's approach brought into our environment would be downright scary. There are few coaches who would be his equal. I wasn't a Currie fan - in fact, I thought he appeared wholly incompetent over the last week. But last night, I heard he was interviewing Leach and things were looking good and I allowed myself to get my hopes up. Why did this have to happen when Currie had (finally!) latched onto a brilliant hire?
"Now Fulmer must move forward and find the best coach. Leach still would like to be considered."
This whole article is a good read by the way, if you have a few minutes.
