Revisionist history.
He hasn't turned anything around at Mississippi State. They were 79-51 in the 10 years before Leach got there. 14-12 in the two years before he got there. He is 17-16 and is a sure bet to finish 1-2 with Georgia and Ole Miss on the schedule. He's a .500 coach at a 8-5 program.
Same at Texas Tech. He had one season where everything came together. And that was in year 9. Otherwise we was a 5-loss coach, just like Spike Dykes before him.
And the exact same at Wazzu. It all came together once. In year 7. In year 8 he went 6-7.
People like to post about how many points he would score while forgetting that he gets shut down four or five times a year. Like someone else said, if you want a lot of passing and 7 wins, he's your guy.
