Very hard to say. I think it’s much easier to predict how Leach will do at state, we have examples of him being in very similar situations (being at one of the non traditional powers in a P5 conference). Freshwater is way more of a boom or bust. So I would bet Kiffin but also think Kiffin is more likely to be very successful

[/quote]Well, until the scandal, I'd have said Leach was safe as long as he wants. Probably gonna put up crazy numbers, win 7-8 games a year.

I don't know why anyone would say

People have been saying that for a decade now. Everyone talks him up before he lands a gig.

Look what he's done- Raiders, Tennessee, USC. Went in spawning high hopes; at each place, by the time he was gone, the people over him hated his fricking guts.

Saban tried to rehabilitate him, but that's kinda a fail too- he couldn't get along there either, and I think Saban probably hates him too.

The biggest thing seems to be that you just can't rely on him, and the longer he's in one place the more you realize what a frickup he is. He makes Bobby Petrino look like a professional.
