    Mike Leach Will Make History at MSU

    I think Mike Leach has found a home at MSU.

    He's going to make history here I think.

    Check out these stats and broken records in year 2 of Leach. What happens when we have a full team of his recruits?

    What I want is two blue chip WRs that can truly stretch the field and are almost impossible to cover. AJ Green, Julio Jones, Amari Cooper, AJ Brown type of guys. Give me two of them.

    I hope so but the records are something he breaks everywhere he's been and he will do the same here. I'm not so much hung up on the stats rather wins/losses.

    One of those stats is wrong. Leach has 6 wins against AP top 25. (LSU, Tulsa 2020/ NC State, Texas A&M, Kentucky, Aurburn 2021)

    This is the way you should count it. Ranked at the time of the game. But most end up counting where the team is ranked at end of the year....

    That's the way I've always counted it. At the time the game was played.

    We're still just 6-4. Let's not get carried away. Lose to OM and most everyone will lose their crap all over again.

    You're right! OM kind of scares me.

    End of the year is the only one that matters. Why should anybody get credit for beating a team that no one realized was bad? (Or not get credit for beating a team no one realized was good?)

    Thing is with this team. We lost an entire offseason with an entirely new offense. New schemes for all groups. Went through some lumps last year. We don?t play in the Big12 where new offensives have training wheels due to shit defenses.

    Leach adjusts and adapts. Add in repetition and experience and he will be fine. Leach came in to a mechanic shop that repaired Diesel engines and asked them to adjust and repair jet turbines for planes. A quick chance could not physically happen. Any change would draw mistakes but After understanding and repetition those same diesel mechanics could repair a plane

    Relax and enjoy the process. Step away from you instant browser and grits. Most things in life take time and work.

    We've got to get better players.

    We need some difference makers on defense.

    I think he can make history here, but we've got to find a pass rush & better safeties

    There are a few good in state WR's in 2023. We really need to get some of those.

    For the first time in awhile the defense is behind the offense. Our guys on defense don't really fit Arnett's scheme very well IMO besides Emerson and Forbes. We really could use 5-7 EDGE players/safeties. We have several players playing out of position.

    We're recruiting guys that fit better- but they need time to develop and probably won't really be ready by 2023 at the earliest. We need JUCO's and transfers to fill the gaps. I hope Leach takes advantage of the 32 man signing limit by getting players that profile better to allow our guys time to grow.

    The thing about our scheme and getting those players is we have to keep Arnette because who else should we replace him with. If he leaves and bring in a coach with a different scheme, we're rebuilding again.

    OM is also scared of MSU.

    I hope the team and the coaches don't have such an attitude.
