Mike Leach (HC Mississippi State, a National Treasure, R.I.P.)

Oregon's Nick Aliotti apologizes to Mike Leach, fined by Pac-12 anyway

Meh. Apologies are overrated. Save them for when you really mean it, or can at least defend the apology. I certainly don't buy it.

As for being fined, I don't know that the Pac-12 should have done that, unless it was only for whatever he said about officials (I didn't hear what he said). I don't think they should have fined him for being a crybaby.

Real men don't apologize via prepared statement.

EDIT: All he had to do was look at the curb stomping that Leach gave Idaho and what happened after the game, LOL

Mike Leach continues stumping for 64-team playoff

Along with eccentric, Mike Leach is nothing if not consistent.

Even before a four-team playoff was approved in June of 2012 and implemented for the 2014 season, Leach was espousing the virtues of a 64-team playoff field, labeling such a size as “ideal.” As part of the Pac-12 coaches turn through the ESPN car wash Wednesday, Leach stated, as he has one more than one occasion, that he’d like to see the playoff expanded beyond its current four teams.

And, yet again, Leach made the case for a 64-team field.

“I don’t know why you don’t have 64 teams,” the Washington State coach said according to the World Wide Leader. “The notion of pinpointing and selecting four perfectly, well that’s not going to happen. That can’t happen effectively. …

“It’s remarkably easy. If you’ve got 64, there wouldn’t be a lot of debate. … It would be indisputable that it was settled on the field and somebody that wins playoff games accordingly deserves to be champion and there’s no debate. It would be great fun to watch — just like it is at all the other levels.”

Leach must think that a 64 team playoff is the only way WSU can get in.

From the ESPN/Pac 12 car wash ...

http://espn.go.com/blog/pac12/post/...t-know-what-the-big-deal-is-about-deflategate

"It's kind of disturbing if you think about it," Leach said. "With everything that’s going on, we're worried about how much air goes into a ball when everybody uses their own ball. It's not like it's a forged football.

"We waste a lot of time with that, and then we worry about the Kardashians. How can it be that we laugh about England's obsession with the royal family? At least the royal family has college degrees and military service."

Leach is like that crazy barber you go to that just runs you through the whole gauntlet of opinions on any and every current topic and you just sit there getting your haircut like "Yeah, man."

Love the goofy bastard.

Again - if you've never read his book, you gotta pick it up. The first chapter alone is worth the read.

Any guy who exploits the weakness of a dog by luring it in to piss all over his head is someone I want on my side.
