Leach took to the airwaves Wednesday (in 2010) on ESPN radio and then sent his own message.
"I think It is a great opportunity for anybody,'' Leach said of the UM job. "They have got a great tradition and all the rest. A great recruiting base, and you could do big things at Miami.
"It'd be fun" to coach at Miami, Leach told The Associated Press.
“
“It’s a great job and I think it would be a great fit,” Leach said. “We’d have an exciting brand of football. We’ll fill the seats and we’ll win games and we’ll win ACC championships.
“If you look at the guys on NFL rosters, in the Big 12 Texas has 32, Oklahoma has 29, Nebraska has 28 and Texas Tech has nine. Still, my record against Nebraska was something like 5-1 and we beat Oklahoma three out of the last five times.
“There are lots of Hurricanes on NFL rosters. That gives you an idea of what you can draw there. If you base it on resources and production, the chances of my success along with my staff are remarkably high.”
