Leach to Wazzu

[VObserver]

It is being reported that Washington State has hired Mike Leach. The PAC-12 North just got a lot stronger.

Pullman Washington is somewhat close to Cody Wyoming. I guess he is going home.

Great hire for WAZZU. This is a COACH. If you are a pampered recruit go someplace else, he will demand you give your all even if your name happens to be James, and your daddy has connections.

Wait, you mean he didn't pick TULANE?!?! HOW COULD HE DO THAT TO THOSE 50* GREEN WAVE FANS!?!?

[CajunEXPRESS]

Well he would have gone, except he could only get 11 waivers of those high academic standards a year, and over a 5 year span which probably most kids do, red shirt, that is 55 players of the 85 allowed.

And if you believe Tulane fans they were offering a lot more money to him. Which should give everyone an idea of what he thought his chances of success were going to be.

You will now hear Tulane fans talking about how they will get Hudspeth like it is a done deal. They can definitely pay the higher rent if you believe the numbers being tossed around. Thing is it will be a pay day with a dead end on it.

Tulane needs to just quit...no one wants to coach there. The Big 12 will never come calling. The crowds will never show up. The stadium will never get built. The administration will never support athletics. It's just sad.

You know it is not a dead end coach university:

Mac Brown, Tommy Bowden, and others have gotten much bigger jobs while serving time in football hell.

To date I know of no UL coach that has move up from being a head coach at UL.

If I had a nickel for everytime Hud was supposed to be announced as Tulane's coach...I'd be a rich man.
