Return of the Pirate

[Ficklone02]

Excited to see what Wazzu does against BYU tonite in Mike Leach's return to coaching!

 

[Bigman38]

I'm more excited for the press conference

Is this on ESPN?

I just moved so a bunch of my stuff is packed up. I need to find my pirate flag from my deck for his return tonight.

Is this on ESPN?

Yes. 9:15 Central

Obligatory

Might be fun to see what he is running for an offense these day, but Wazzu just does not have the talent to compete with BYU.

Texas Tech didn't have the shear talent to compete in the Big 12 either when they were winning 9 or more games. Mike Leach is a genius offensive mind. Between he, Rodriguez, and the established Kelly, the Pac 12 will see a huge hike in football quality. I think Wazzou will get beat but not by a lot. They had a fairly prolific passing offense last year as well. Halliday could be a monster under Leach.

Looks like Leach is pulling on some quality players. A few from last year, and more in this year's class. He had a quality 4* receiver as part of last year's class, but I just don't think they will be ready yet. It might take a few years for them to get up to speed and understand the complexities that are Mike Leach.

He has a decent QB back from injury this year, Wazzu is much further down that Tech was when he took over but I still think he'll get them competitive. The Pac-10 is nothing special as a conference, if you can score points, you can win. I always liked Leach, I really like him now that he's out of the big 12.

The press conference or the game is on ESPN? Won't BYU run all over them? Then again Leach is a great coach.
