Leach has a proven track record of doing more with less. That's where we are in the SEC world. We aren't going to hire Nick Saban. We run an unconventional offense and defense that teams have to prepare for. This season sets us up quite nice with several trap games against our opponents. I'm thinking Leach steals a few wins this season because of it.

Look at the coaches that were hired the year Mullen left. Only a few are actually doing well and several are either fired or on the hot seat.

Coaching hires are a crapshoot anyway. Jimbo Fisher isn't exactly tearing it up over at TAMU. So, not sure who you think you're going to replace Leach with.

Leach is a solid head coach that will get the most out of his players. When's the last time we had 4-4 Star QBs on the roster. We currently have the best receiver room we've had since at least 2014 or a long time before then.

Leach and the staff are doing what they need to. We may not have many standout players, but our entire roster is not bad at all.
Leach is the perfect fit here but some people think if you aren't running the ball every other play you're not playing football.

Key West and his millions right now are reason enough to give it up. He's still coaching. He loves coaching and will coach several years past 65.

Fun to watch? I was having the time of my life watching us score 40 unanswered points on Auburn. There is no way in Hell we could have come back on Auburn like that with Mullen running Holloway up the middle and Fitz on 3rd and long. We've both seen that movie too many times.
