Somewhat surprising but then again not really when considering that for some programs the objective is to excel and especially to always beat your biggest rival. Once again as has been the case so many times before it points a finger at Tech’s acceptance of mediocrity spiraling downwards.

I think there was some weird drama there last year as well with a meddling AD, right? Assistant got fired and unfired or something?

I'm not sure it was a great working relationship (even if he hadn't had a couple of down years).

Prayers for Mike Leach and his family. As I am sure most have heard it doesn’t look very promising. Hoping for a miracle.

Yeah it seems like coach and AD did not get along.

Mike Leach has passed away at 61. Good coach, great interview. RIP Pirate.

What a shame. Tough for his team, I'm sure.

That coaching tree is fantastic (including 2 of our last 3 head coaches).

Changed the game. His influence is all over at every level. Didn’t take himself or the game too seriously. He belongs in the HOF.

Leach is an all time great.

I saw somewhere that he is 2 wins shy of qualifying for the HoF. If so I imagine it is waived under the circumstances

Just announced Bobby Petrino is leaving his HC job at Missouri State (FBS) to take OC job at UNLV. There had been rumors that he was also courted for A&M OC job.

All jobs are filled. Sorry Skip.
