    I'm not sure KJ knows who he is to be honest... going to Mississippi State for grad school and a super low chance at the NFL or go to UW for real grad school and about the same shot at the NFL.

    I guess that Stanford education didn't really stick.

    I know a lot of Stanford grads and none of them have finished up an undergrad at Stanford and then dropped to Tier 2 schools for grad school. It's just a weird decision that is Built for Next Season but not B4L.

    This ain’t about grad school
    that's my point. it's a terrible decision because it SHOULD be about grad school for this guy.

    he isn't going to the NFL.

    It'll be awesome when he's Owen against Ole Miss, has a winning record against LSU and takes them to the wire when he loses, and is a tough out for good Florida and Georgia teams.

    They aren’t beating LSU
    Cuog shouldn't have beaten Oregon consistently, but they did. The leech is a vicious animal.
    Did they ever beat Oregon when Oregon was good? Certainly not often.
    Only when they were rich cool and 4-0

    Its a good question - did they beat Chip? Chip only lost to Stanford and Arizona
    They had a four game streak starting in '15.

    So the bully is right

    2015. But Jack Locknie 2015, not VAJ 2015.

    Did we try to get him? Or anyone?

    It would show me that there is some realization that we really need to give a shit and do everything to win because I am pretty sure we don't care all that much

    Lake didn’t commit to saying the starting QB was on the roster. The guy that went to Georgia had some interest. It seems we are interested, but can’t convince anyone to play in a shitty offense.

    IIRC Leach had three TOTAL wins vs Texas and Oklahoma during all his years at Tech.

    Dominated by Petersen. Had the one ridiculous win vs Sark in 2012.

    Four consecutive wins while Oregon was down but lost anytime they were good.

    This is Leach: beat the bad/mediocre teams and get dominated by the top of the conference.

    You are assuming it has anything to do with grad school ... at all. It does not. Also, Stanford football players are B students. Many of them struggle to make it out of their in one piece. I know a kid who played baseball down there who, despite an Eastside Catholic edumacation, had to take one distribution requirement 3 fucking times. The football team generally represents the bottom 25th percentile of the student pop. Maybe worse. There are exceptions, but that's the rule.

    He's good enough to sign a contract and hold a clipboard, and thereby make more money in 5 years than most of his Stanford classmates will make in 15.

    The Crabtree team was his only legit good team
    Yeah, one double digit win season in ten years at TTech and one in eight at WSU.

    Both teams were exposed towards the end of the year after achieving a high ranking and having a chance to win the conference.

    Normally Leach is good for an 8-9 win season.

    LSU is primed for a big tumble. I doubt Leach pulls it off, but LSU will absorb some ugly losses in 2020.

    LSU is losing alot although they reload with the best of em and coincidentally Ms St is returning some of their best players from this past season. So Leach will have good talent and may be interesting game.

    And sounds like he’s trying to bring in good players but never heard of KJ, 3rd stringer from Stanford? From what I see on this thread he’s worthy of a look.

    So, will see how the pirate fairs against LSU et al. He will have some good skilled position players returning to Ms St and not like he’s showing up to a mass exodus i.e. LSU.

    Stanfraud's prehistoric 1960s offense is a 180 from Leach's system. That seems like an odd move.

    Unless he trusts Leach to teach him new skills.

    Leach’s offense is crazy simple. Designed to have like three basic keys and just throw to the open guy. Run the ball once a quarter just to mix things up. Costello went to Stanford, so he’s probably more than bright enough.

    I do want to know what graduate program Mississippi State has that Stanford doesn’t though (the purported rationale for grad transfers)
