Good call. Not extending any coach to the maximum sends a terrible signal to recruits that we don't believe in him.
agreed ... It also might help keep the coach from shopping himself but is an almost absolute must for recruitingQuote:

$5.5 million
In the era of transfer portal and NIL this means nothing anymore. A coach can be fired in the middle of contracts and players leave when they want. Stupid move if you ask me.Quote:

Leach is at end of career. He got no real looks at WSU. Everyone knows he is a gemic scheme and he doesn't fit the culture today (he don't bother me but he does some).Quote:

Yep thats my opinion, you can have yours.Quote:

Leach really wants to be here and win here. He isn't just collecting a check. I believe he can have success here if we can get playersQuote:

He's not going to be at every MSU thing and be ra ra MSU like Coach O and Lane Kiffin are.

He'd rather sit down with you and talk about some obscure Supreme Court decision and how it effected avocado farming in the 1950s.Quote:

I concur. I think Leach has shown he wants to be here.Quote:

He may WANT to be in Key West - So would I .... But I assure you he also wants to succeed here in his job. To think otherwise would be lying to one's selfQuote:
