We let Tennessee

[dalefromspringdale]

Steal our coach. Sounds like Leach is going to Tennessee (per NBCDFW sports). Tennessee stumbled around and embarrassed themselves this week but they're going to stumble into a great hire. It was right there in front of us for the taking and we didn't even try. I really want Gus, he would be best case scenario but I highly doubt he's coming. The only way we look good after not even talking to Leach is if we get Gus and we knew it the whole time.

[searkhogfan]

If Leach will take that job after Shat Show they've had..  We don't need him....

[HogNTX]

LOL.. where on NBCDFW sports... the Cowboys game is the only thing on NBC in DFW right now.

Leach will not fare well vs the best SEC defenses. He was our 6-7 th best option. Glad he's headed east

Awesome. Now he can go top out at 7-8 wins there with a 9 win season thrown in for mere excitement. Yippy.

[HogNTX]

cool... I checked their website and am watching the Cowboys on it currently. Personally I'm glad if Leach is headed there because then he can't be headed to the hill. I honestly think that we've got a lot better options in front of us and that he wasn't top 3 or maybe even top 5.

[SooieGeneris]

The lead up to the game between Tenner and 'Bama will be more entertaining than the game with Saban lecturing against ripped jeans or talking about "rat poison" and Leach with his pirate shtick and wedding planning advice. What a contrast that will be.

[Oliver]

Great hire by Tennessee if this is true!

[DallasHogFan]

He will wreck shop in the SEC with that recruiting base. We should have hired him.

[GoHogzzGo]

That sucks they got lucky.

[buldozer]

He is a good coach and will improve their WL record if they hire him. He may have some issues but fielding a football team ain't one of them

Tennessee's too apparently.

[HOGINTENNESSEE]

I don't considering this a bad thing. Unless we end up with Morris

[PorkSoda]

after the last 5 years, that sounds pretty good.

[bphi11ips]

Tennessee going further and further away from what made them great to begin with.  Couldn't be better news than this.

[Porknoxville]

The Pitt State Gorilla is his favorite mascot! He is one of 4 power 5 coaches that never played college football. I think he will do more than fine at UT.

[rowdy1]

Are you kidding?  We don't want Leach!!!!!!!

[regi]

This Leach love on Hogville is laughable.  He is at best,  Tennessee's 10th option. He is 38-37 at WSU,  and he has filed law suits against two previous employers.  Sorry some of you are dissapointed we were not forced to hire him like Tennessee was.

[Kevin]

Lane is still available

[HawgTide]

It looks like he was the 9th option at Tenner

[hobhog]

I'm glad he is coaching in Sec as fun to watch. Even happier he's not here.

[greenie]

There's at least 2 guys on HV hiding behind faux hog handles (not talking about AllVol).  I haven't seen them on here for a few months (probably because of the state of the Tenner program).  The real question is, how long will it be before they start showing up on here if they land Leach.

Neither will Gus IMHO.

[uofajoe99]

What? You realize Gus is in the SEC Championship game this weekend right?

[KlubhouseKonnected]

That's all Gus is supposed to do at Arkansas according to this board.

That's what he would do at Arkansas in reality.

As long as Gus don't go B2B, 4-7 and 5-6, dude can retire here, so says Hogville

[presidenthog]

Lane is still available

It's who we should hire

[pig pickin]

It's who we should hire

I agree

[AFWarrior83]

Leach did a great job at Texas Tech and Washington State. I think he's gonna do really well at Tennessee if he gets the job. He will have an easier road to the SECC competing in the East.

[Bkhardicars]

I like Leach and will be glad he's not in the West.That being said, I don't think it's accurate to say we "let" TENN get him when he was clearly plan E ,F, or even G for us..For me, He was who I wanted after Gus ,NORVELL, And Kiffin.

[Pork Twain]

Overreact much?

he was never our pick if I had to guess.

What is all this Drama Queen foolishness! Tennessee didn't steal anything from us. Did we offer Leach the Job? Was he ever a serious contender even? Texas Tech & Wash st is not the SEC. You must have defense to succeed here. Jesus Christ just relax.

I know. I have other favorites.

Agreed.  I just don't see why everyone thinks he's the answer when his record at Auburn says otherwise.

[Redhogs]

Sure..HDN did that twice while here...how did that end up?  Gus= fools gold. His record at AUBURN has averaged 8-5..what do you think he will do at Ar?  No upside to this.

[Redhogs]

Agreed.  I just don't see why everyone thinks he's the answer when his record at Auburn says otherwise.

Yep...

I didn't mean literally "steal". I think we should've at least talked to him while he was available though. Since he's not from the SEC, who is your favorite candidate? I'm guessing they're in the SEC....

[jkstock04]

My hunch is Leach will win around 8-9 games/year at Tennessee. I'd take it. Be interesting to see what he does...if this comes to fruition.

[Pork Ranger]

The day is young, UT still has plenty of time to screw it up

Texas Tech for not paying him, and who is your other...  Plus where is the link to back it up?

It was proven that Adam James did that on his own, Read the Court Documents...

Lighten up, Francis. Geez.



Psss....
Don't tell me you actually read the court documents?

[Hogarusa]

Not ready to believe Tennessee has their coach until a press
Conference is had. Hogs are all in on Gus and Leach is a fine back up plan if that didnt happen, but it appears he wasnt Plans B or C either. Would be a lucky ending for Tennessee.

Gives me hope that if Hogs lose choices 1-4 that there are still opportunities out there for great hires.

[jkstock04]

This lol. I mean at this point even the Hogville kneejerk crowd oughta pump the breaks on this til he's standing at the podium wearing ugly orange. Leach is option #6 for them down the line that we know of.

[Bubba's Bruisers]

Fitting that Leach would be the one to take the UT job.  Crazy attracts crazy.
