Or Ar-Kansas if you are Les Miles.
Supposedly he was on a plane to Fayetteville. Which sounds fishy anyway, because it's hard as hell to fly to Fayetteville anyway.
Work this scenario out for me......
Say Les Miles leaves. LSU pulls the trigger and goes and gets Spurrier, which has been rumored. Try this on:
Alabama-Saban
Auburn-Tuberville
Arkansas-Leach
LSU-Spurrier
Miss State-Croom
Ole Miss-Nutt
That is not fun. If I was Sly Croom I'd be looking for an upgrade as fast as possible.

I think that TT-ARK is a lateral move.
The talent that he can get at TT is much better than than in ARK.
Maybe I am just saying that because when/if Miles goes to Michigan I want Leach at LSU!

I'm with neil .........on the go-to-LSU
I'd imagine he'd fit in a lot better in ARkansas, though.....and he wouldn't be competing as the 3rd illegitimate step-child in Texas (good luck, Sherman!) at Texas Tech.
Leach in the SEC !?!? YES!
thing is, the Tubberville rumor is that he won't be in Auburn next year, anyway.....
If they don't get Paul Johnson, Pelini is as good as being the next HC @ NU.
Where does Crowton end up is the question.....
Does Major Applewhite get any sniffs, or is it too early (did a great job with Alabama's talent this year with some gutsy calls).

Leach to Arkansas would be NUTS. I think he would get WAY better talent at Arkansas than TT. I mean, TT hasn't had anyone drafted above the 4th round since he's been there.

I love Major and thought he did a good job this year.
He was always ahead of the game, even when he was a little 10th grader, when I was Senior.
However, I am not sure that he would get HC sniffs just yet. But soon, I'm sure.

If ARkansas gets a guy like Leach...... 1) Does Mustain now regret transferring? 2) Do both RBs (McFadden / Jones) bolt for the NFL 3) Does Felix Jones stay and become the best athlete known to mankind? 4) Does Nutt leave Arkansas because without McFadden...he's pretty much sunk? PS ---- a Louisiana sports writer is hinting at TERRY BOWDEN trying to get back into the coaching ranks.........  |

Bowden has talked about coaching this year for a month or so. He said it on Rome or the Herd early on in the season. He'll definitely end up some where.
As far as Leach goes, he should hold out for something other than Arkansas. I think he would do a great job, but Arkansas seems to be one of the middle of the road SEC teams. Good, some games great, but not going to be thought of like LSU/Florida/Georgia. I guess it could be changed, but he's got a ton of history to battle against. At some point, someone at a HUGE school is going to wise up and beg Leach to come (an LSU or maybe UCLA, Florida State should immediately, Miami should have already...)

If Arkansas can be competative in every facet of the SEC in sports, yet only be a middle of the road football team, who is to say there wasn't a problem with the direction of the team? Track, Baseball, Basketball... Arkansas has cleaned up in many of those sports. |

Arkansas has cleaned up in many of those sports. football athletes come from; Texas, Louisiana, Florida, California, Georgia, Alabama, Virginia, Ohio, Mississippi.... not so much Nebraska, Kansas, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Utah.... |
