If you are asking who I would hire, I think it is pretty clear.  It would be Leavitt, and it would be much like others that have thought it through realize in terms of how that could play out over the next 3-5 years and how much it could benefit this struggling program.   There is too much positive, energy, excitement to even consider a blase Tom Herman or some other unconnected dude.  If nothing else, we've proven hiring coaches is a crapshoot (at least for us).  Why roll the dice?  Go with what you know.  They'll be detractors, as there are in anything, but no one can rev up this region, this state like Leavitt could.  It's too simple.

I'm starting to hope we hire Leavitt, see him win 4 games in 3 years and then watch you blow up this message board

If you are being robbed do you reach for the 2 barrel shotty that you've been shooting since you were 12 or the semi auto pistol you got last week?  Leavitts already gotten you into a power conference once and able to hang with anybody when healthy.  Leavitt has former players who are local HS coaches too.  USF doesn't have any strikes left and no more at bats. technically we may be already out and we don't even know it.  Not sure how many metaphors needed but we  gotta stop hiring based on who interviews the best or fits PC culture the best.

I’m all for this, but my questions are:

1. Can USF legally hire him back even if they wanted to?

2. Would MK even entertain this? 

3. Has anyone in the Selmon center legitimately dropped his name like they did Gruden?

Whew, glad I didn't hear about that back then ...... looks like we dodged that bullet, though.

More fuel to the fire? Jim is starting his recruiting already.

We need Leavitt to bring back energy and excitement to the program. I’m hoping for Leavitt or Sanders.
