He's a very good coach that has always been the almost great coach.
If Tech gets years in a group of 5 like Patterson did with TCU, I think we see him much differently.
Tech dominated the Border Conference, lol. They have ONE conference title since joining a real conference. And that was shared with Houston in like 1975...they lost to Houston that year.
Since 1960, Tech as been ranked 10x. 5 of those were under Leach. The last time Tech finished ranked, guess who the coach was.
Wazzu won 9 games in 4 years before Leach arrived. They hadn't been to a bowl game in a decade. Leach took them to 6 in 7 years. Wazzu has had one 11 win season in their history I believe, and that was a Leach coached team.
Miss. State has one appearance in the SEC title game and that was in 98 under cheating ass Sherill.
I'm sorry, but I'm not going to fault the guy for "never winning a conference title."
