It's 17'ing hilarious that someone says something with nothing but a "source"... someone repeats it, then another and suddenly it's the gospel. LOL.

That is not why they lost those 3 years. He inherited a disaster of a team and roster. Bad culture. The 3 seasons prior to Leach getting there were : 4-8, 2-10, 1-11Quote:

No, he started with 3 losing seasons because his predecessor literally won just 6 FBS games in 4 years. He had to build up the roster from nothing, not transform it from something. Even with that great challenge, he had them in a bowl and winning a DEFENSIVE STRUGGLE at USC in year 2.Quote:

Third, for those that weren't aware, Leach had the same record at WSU this year that Moorhead had with us, 6-7.Quote:

I never understood this. Is Nike just in in love with a MSU logo from the late 90's and won't let it go? I am sure if we wanted it would could get it and use it again.Quote:

...Oh and **** Nike
was told tonight by one of Archie's friends that Napier was his no1 and only choice to take over UM's program, but UM couldn't wait that long.....Now i really, really want Napier....i sure as hell hope it works out
It did not take Herman Edwards much time to connect with the prospects at Arizona State. Herman was nowhere to be seen in Phoenix before his hiring? In other words, connections can happen quickly if the recruits are won over? Herman can compete with Los Angeles and Dallas because he is Herman Edwards with his NFL type connections at his disposal. Prospects like that kind of stuff.Quote:

HUD sounds ahelluva lot better than Sark or leach.
I guess that decade of coaching in the Southeast (Valdosta State & UK) and the decade in Oklahoma/Texas was just good for nothing?***Quote:

He had to get any type of people on that roster. Nobody was going into WSU and winning much more than Leach did initially, no matter who they were or what they did.Quote:

I don't know if the rest of the fanbase would be willing to give him a couple of years but if the results ended up like the have at wash state I would be more than willing to give him 2 years to get things rolling as long as there were improvements in discipline and the way the program was run.Quote:

I am worried that regardless of who we hire our fans won't have enough patience with him. Next year is going to be a down year regardless. Gotta give this next guy some time to get things running his way and get the new O installed and running smoothly.
You really, really want Napier for the sole reason that Archie/OM wanted him?Quote:
