Do you believe he gets fired? I'll admit I haven't paid much attention to the fallout from the twitter post. I thought it was kind of stupid but nothing horrible but I'm not running a university. I'm sure there's somebody out there that would take him in a heartbeat though. Plenty of G5...

Riley could call his offense the pantie raid for all I care. The fact remains, what he's doing at Oklahoma is vastly different from what Leach is doing at WSU. And it's different from what Holgerson is doing at WVU and it's different from what Mike Riley is doing at Oklahoma State. Probably the...

Riley still refers to it as the "Air Raid" but it's had so many changes in personnel and formations it hardly resembles the Hal Mumme/ Mike Leach offense. We've gotten way off base anyway. The fact of the matter is, Mike Leach would not succeed as a coach here unless he made significant...

As soon as Riley got a job coaching talented players, he dumped the gimmick system and ran something that actually works against teams with a pulse. Besides, it was Ruffin McNeal's offense at ECU anyway. Mc Neal is a known Hal Mumme/ Mike Leach disciple.

Somebody is confusing the air raid and the spread. The air raid purposely avoids running the football. That's why it's called the "air raid". The air raid doesn't use a tight end or h back. Leach himself has said he doesn't bother using tight ends because there's a shortage of big guys who can...

We can't assume Leach would pull in a bunch of 4 star guys at Miami just because "it's Miami". First an foremost, you're immediately eliminating two of Miami's most productive positions RB and TE. Good luck convincing a Lorenzo Lingard to come to Miami to be a glorified 6th lineman. "Don't...

The commons misconception is that with his offense, Miami would be lighting up the scoreboard every week. Yes, they'd score 40 against the Toledos and Virginias on the schedule but what evidence is there that Leach's offense has consistent success against actual good teams? There isn't much...

He's won as many division titles as Golden and Shannon. Nevermind, Golden technically won the coastal one year.

They had a "good for Mike Leach" defense. His track record says this is more an outlier than a trend. Mark D'Onofrio has had more years with better defenses.

I've made this point on here and other message boards in the past. Leach is great if you're at some po-dunk school with no aspirations for anything more than 8 or 9 win seasons. He's proven he can take teams that are bad and make them decent. He DOES NOT have what it takes to make the jump from...
