Miss State isn't firing him definitely he's going to see the 3rd year I was just thinking with those TCU ADs comments and Dykes being off his tree, it made me wonder if Leach would be interested in possibly a better opportunity and chance for the playoffs compared to Miss State.
Leach left a lot of money on the table at WSU and had to pay them a severance of I think $2.25M. Who knows what his deal is at Miss. State. Other schools might be reticent to hire a guy who moves around so much (leaving after 2 years), and he did not exactly kill it at WSU (albeit one season) and it has been a slow build at Miss. State (as it should be in the SEC (and B1G)).
Great because contracts are so meaningful and binding these days!!!! 👍☺️
32-21/19-21 in conference is worthy of a 7 year extension?
I’m with you…maybe they think he’s going to be a hot commodity if he wins the B10 west. You know me and how I feel about long contracts and big buyouts lol.
Not well. It's just a different mindset in the SEC. LSU has kicked 2 coaches who actually won national championships to the curb. It's beyond all or nothing. You either win championships or you're toast.
That's about right and not just the SEC but a handful a schools. There was a thing in the Athletic about it the other day with regards to Mullen. He said he's coached in the SEC and previously at UF and knew what he was getting into and understood when he was introduced as HC but some of his comments lately sort of reveal that he really didn't.
Agreed.
Haven't seen that Al Golden news to UConn reported by footballscoop or Bruce Feldman yet. He was rumored though....could they hire him during the NFL season or would they have to wait?
I agree Tucker could be good but hard to know for sure. I like to see some consistency first. But that's my lower budget AD trying to be thrifty and efficient with money thinking. It's LSU so they can take a shot and pay him a ton and if it was a fluke, fire him and try again lol.
Tucker is already making $5.5 million/year. Orgeron is making $6 million.
Not saying he will go if offered but it’s one of the best jobs in college football like really high up. Top 2 or 3 probably. Easier to win a champ from there than MSU…see Orgeron and Miles who no one would mistake for top x/o coaches. So much talent in the area.
The Minutemen have not won more than four games in any season since moving up to FBS in 2012.
Yea why not if CP isn’t available bring back a different former coach lol.
Well...it doesn't really sound like Butch made himself available. It sounds more like FIU made him available. Nothing like seeing your job being posted online without you first knowing about it.Butch Davis just made himself available!!!
Davis out at FIU; school 'sabotaging' program
Butch Davis told The Action Network that he's out at Florida International after the season and criticized the school's administration for "sabotaging the program."www.espn.com
He has informed the coaching staff that he will not be back, sources told ESPN, although it's unclear whether he will coach FIU's final two games against North Texas and Southern Miss. Davis' contract expires Dec. 15, and FIU last month had a job posting for its head-coaching position online with the American Football Coaches Association.
