Why not Mike Leach?

just read where he popped up on our radar today, but there is some complications with him. apparently he sued his former employer and that has currie worried. per CBS article.

He should have sued Texas Tech. Read up on it. They still owe him $900K and still refuse to pay

I guess the answer to the question is because he wouldn't be easily controlled by Haslam's. Some of you guys say because his teams don't play D - which is BS, #15 in Total D this year, but that's not it. He'd tell Jimmy to jump in the river.

I have searched back through various threads regarding possible replacements for CBJ. I have seen several who are very adamant about not wanting to hire Mike Leach. My question is why? He has won at high levels in the Big 12. His offenses were record breaking . His defense at Washington St. looks legit this year. He has been able to recruit to Washington St, which historically is a very hard sell. I know the circumstances behind his firing , but wasn't it proven to be basically a sham perpetrated by Craig James and his prima Dona son? Seems to me like he has served his rehabilitation stint and would at least be willing to listen to an offer from a big time SEC program.

It is threads like this.....Why NOT Mike Leach that cause you not take Message Boards serious...... :crazy:
 
I guarantee Mike Leach at UT beats Alabama, Georgia and Florida on a regular basis.

WSU beat USC and Stanford this year.

The Tennessee Football coaching search has been full of wild, unpredictable turns. And Thursday has been no different.

A source has told A to Z Sports Nashville that Tennessee Vols athletic director John Currie met with Washington State head coach Mike Leach for lunch in Los Angeles Thursday.

The meeting took place at the “Cast & Plow” restaurant in Marina Del Ray and lasted about two hours. A to Z Sports Nashville learned of the lunch as it was happening at 12:45pm PT.

Jayson Swain of the “Swain Event” tweeted about Currie being on the West Coast. And Volquest’s Brent Hubbs said he had been told the same thing by multiple sources and that Currie was scheduled to return to Knoxville soon. An independent source told me that they heard a Currie-Leach meeting had also taken place.
