Anything is a fireable offense. Is it a with-cause offense?

This site has always been more "player friendly" than coach friendly, but I think most of the responsibility for this year's cataclysmic political tornado wrapped up with a big bow of Covid right on top lies squarely on the players. No leadership from within this year. If we don't give ML 4-5 years, we may as well put ourselves on probation.

Seriously? It's about 50/50 with the black people I work with. And it's 100% Trump voters among the 4 Spanish guys I work with.

But I doubt that has anything at all to do with the players leaving. At least I hope they're not that soft.

I would wager that a dislike of Trump has nothing to do with players or recruits thoughts about our program. But their thoughts on the man "leading" our program is and will affect their decisions.

By the way, are any of your coworkers parents to D1 football players?

4-5 years? I'm really down on leach, but I still think he deserves 3 years. If we getting shut down by Kentucky in year 3, send him to Florida

Agree. It’s just completely frustrating right now.

Thanks. It's about time for the players to shit or get off the pot.

Hint: Leach is apparently a vocal trump supporter. Maybe we'll end up with a team of mormons...white boys riding bicycles with black pants and short sleeve shirts with slim black ties.

So is Dan Mullen, and he seems to be doing fine. In fact, I'd bet the majority of college football coaches in the south voted for Trump. This is a ridiculous non-issue.

I actually read somewhere that most college football coaches are Republicans and basketball coaches Democrats.

I thought that was interesting and odd as to why.

What? Did Leach just get up in the middle of practice and start yelling Make America Great Again or something like that?**

We need a quarterback that doesn't throw pick sixes and an offensive line that is capable of blocking three guys more than the others too.

The offensive side of the ball doesn't appear to have very many of any leaders like Errol or Kobe either.

I wouldn’t include Errol. He’s had a good year but he isn’t a leader. Kobe yes

Any insight on why we’ve had more trouble than other teams?

Irrelevant. Most of the head coaches in the SEC are conservatives.

Spring practice isn't the reason, it's an excuse. Other new SEC coaches with less experience didn't have Spring practice and are progressing just fine. Truthfully, he should have adapted easily with his tenure despite no Spring practices.

Do you consider Leach as a leader?

Is he talking about Trump a lot in practice or something? Because I can't see it mattering unless he is talking about Trump at team meetings or practices, ect.
