I remember N. Aliotti losing his mind and calling Leach "low class" for keeping his starters in the entire game and throwing it like 200x in a lopsided loss at Oregon and then apologizing the next day. Leach responded that he didn't criticize other teams or coaches, he just focuses on his team. Classic Leach.
Leach had a good response to Jimmy Lake trolling him after one of the apple cups. Something to the effect of "I don't actually know who Jimmy Lake is..."
Leach was a bone headed football coach who thought he was a lot smarter than he was, like most of them. He was so much more clever and entertaining than most though. He was a treasure.
Aliotti was just pissed that for once it looked like his D wasn't gonna give up 400 passing yards to Leach so he put in all backups and Leach just kept throwing the ball.
