S.S. LEACH BRIEFLY DOCKS AT WASHINGTON, SAILS ON

Washington isn’t so much of a coaching job as a natural disaster. As talented as Leach may be, only the combination of Bill Paxton and Helen Hunt could save that program. Both Leach and Hill should stay where they are, until an actual better job comes about-like ND for instance! (Ok, maybe that’s not better either.)

Before I head home…

How is UDub not a good job? It looks like it could be as good as any non-Southern Cal Pac10 job to me. Certainly better than Wazzu or Stanford. Most certainly it’s not Mississippi State. MSU is a graveyard in need of an early retiree a la Rich Brooks. Any young up and comer who even looks at it isn’t an up and comer if she takes it. And, really, isn’t it about time someone started bitching about the lack of women in college football coaching???

That Buckethead shit… that’s f’d up.

UDub is a much, much better job than Miss State, no doubt. But, the Washington job is pretty challenging, since they can no longer raid SoCal for talent (USC, Ucla, the other California schools, the Arizona schools, Oregon and a handful of national programs pick the place clean these days) and their facilities are subpar, the view from Husky Stadium notwithstanding.

A high-profile hire would go a long way toward the facilities issues, in that fundraising juices would get flowing. But they are so untalented on both sides of the ball that the new guy is looking at 3-4 years to even compete in the conference.

If CFB were baseball, I could envision ND trading Pear Bryant to Washington for a bag of balls and some athletic tape. It is really the right thing to do. Sentence the arrogant bastard to follow Ty Willingham after he screws up every program he comes in contact. The hilarity would continue at Washington and ND.

man, I always get so distracted looking at the videos you post Orson

…that buckethead…. man, that is the best imitation I have ever seen of a moron making music!!!

… oh wait…. he meant to do that?….. in that case I need to find a current supplier of an equivalent to windowpane or orange barrel in order to enjoy it (geezer reference kids, go ask your dad or mom)

I still don’t understand why a head coach would leave a big conference school where they are winning 9-10 games/year to go to Washington, hoping that you can squeeze juice out of a turnip.

I think that Peterson and Hill are perfect for the job. Both are great head coaches, but at smaller conference schools where they are somewhat limited under the current system. Both are familiar with the general area and would probably bring great recruits along with them.

I’d also love to see either of these guys become an annual thorn in the side of USC.

Stoop,
Buckethead is legit, I dont know what all that was with the Pirate theme…..check this out

Ozzy said he “played too many mind games” to play in his band

ICP – Buckethead is crazy in a Mike Leach kind of way. The “bucket on his head” thing is his schtick…it’s an act, akin to Alice Cooper. Off stage (and especially in a studio) he’s a different person. Still crazy as a shithouse rat, but he can shred a guitar with the best of them. Not everything he does is a masterpiece, but a good majority of it is worth listening to at least once, at least to see what he’s gonna do next.

And I caught your geezer reference…been there, and ahem have the flashbacks to prove it. Man I miss those days…and I’m only 31…

I nominate Arizona DC Mark Stoops. We can keep bringing up the Bob Stoops coaching tree and besides, Mark will need a job after his brother gets canned for losing to ASU for a fourth straight year. At home. When favored. In Zona’s best season in a decade, natch.

(obviously in full rivalry week mode and not apologizing for it)

Damn it Orson if I want to have a nightmare I’ll pop in the Ole Miss gametape my damn self. My retinas are burned and I have the urge to just cry now…..

When I think of insanity and genius I think of this guy: http://therapup.uproxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/weezy-f-baby.jpg

Stick w/ the windopane, Insane.

There are reports that there is some bad orange acid going around.

I repeat: Don’t eat the orange acid.

And “shredding?”

I don’t think so. Wearing a jumpsuit onstage doesn’t make you Pete Townshend.

Insanecoachposse, I never thought that a 1/16×1/16 inch square of paper could change your life. My prized possession…Bose 901’s were destroyed. The expense of that episode has influenced my choice of “enlightenment.”

Just to correct southbendblarney at #1—I’m pretty sure Bill Paxton is already signed for the lead in “The Dabo Swinney Story.”

Buckethead is to music as etch-a-sketch is to art…

and how awesome would it be for Pat Hill and his wife to have a reality show? If he’s willing to simply tell a BCS school ‘you have til wednesday’… and then mean it… imagine how he must treat her…

I’ll be she ‘falls down the stairs’ alot when his Hungry Man friend chicken meal isnt on the table precisely at 5:45..

Man Louisville is getting whooped…Papa John is not happy…..

Sarkisian in Seattle, per Rece at halftime of Louisville-Rutgers.

Don’t know where Leach will wind up, but he should take Buckethead with him as his O/C and Les Claypool as he D/C. Don’t know how may games they would win, but man, what a fucked up trio that would be.

I love this site. Keeps me young.

Can’t say I’m that upset about Sark leaving. Maybe we’ll finally get an OC with a definitively clear offensive philosophy who has the guts to stick with it.

Here is the Auburn Coaches wives calling into the talk show venting and putting up slanderous accusations….Amy, Nick Saban will send his attorney to see you, whack job…

Sark is in at UW, per ESPN

Leach is going to coach Somalia.

Who cares Sark is leaving? Even I could coach USC’s offense. Play calls, standard:

Student Body Right,

Student Body Left,

Throw it to the bony tall one,

TD!

If you really want to freak out your IT people, visit Buckethead’s website.

There is no adjective that can accurately describe the feeling you get after reading his life story.

Buckethead, to me, is an acquired taste. Interesting, but not somebody I’m going to follow around the country.

However, it was one of the better costumes I saw this year on Halloween in Boston for the Mule.
