I love Leach and I firmly believe he would have eventually plungered Sark, not just kept it close and waited for the collapse. He's the perfect coach for Pullman (Lubbock's long lost twin) and the cuogs will be respectable while he is there. Craig James really fucked Tech.
Sorry, maybe I'm shitty town superiority guy, but I hear this comparison a lot and it's not the case. Other than being boring towns, Lubbock has way more going for it resource-wise than Pullman. For one, Lubbock has around 250,00 people...a fairly decent sized city. Pullman's population goes down by 60% when school gets out. It's also much easier to win at Tech because there's so much good talent in Texas, you can pick up plenty of studs who aren't good enough for a UT or A&M offer but are pretty damn good players that want to play close to home. So besides the fact that Lubbock is close to 9 times bigger than Pullman, they're basically like twins.
