West Virginia's football coach

So, all the hoo-ha going on at West Virginia is pretty interesting:

"He tried to flame-throw the guy in December by calling me and at least one other reporter because the other reporter and I discussed it. [Stewart] said, can you get the word, I think it was scumbag or something, tattooed on the front of the sports page? You need to dig up this dirt; you need to get it out on this guy. And I said, 'Hey man, I'm not a part of some witch hunt.' But I understood the guy was like backed in a corner and was in a tight spot."

Well. One of the CBS CFB blogger guys satirically recommends firing the current guys (recall that WVa coach-in-waiting Dana Holgorsen seems to have something of a drinking problem) and hiring a fresh old face

Now, now, Mr. Luck: hear us out. Please put the phone down. We don't need to bring security guards into this matter and make it weird. Mr. Rich Rodriguez is the rare coach who has significant and successful BCS-level head coaching experience, is under 50 years old, and is available immediately for employment. Why, he even has seven years of experience coaching your very own West Virginia Mountaineers! Seven! Had he not made the fatal error of trusting Greg Robinson, Mr. Rodriguez would undoubtedly still be coaching the Michigan Wolverines today. If he's good enough for Michigan, my goodness, he must be good enough for West Virginia again!

But that's silly because RichRod is terrible. I do have a serious suggestion, if West Virginia wants to start anew: 3E favorite Mike Leach. While incompetents like Lane Kiffin continue to fail upward, one of America's most interesting and innovative football coaches is wasting away in sunny south Florida. It seems to me like a match made in heaven: He obviously wants something to do, and if he was willing to work in Lubbock, he will gladly work in West Virginia. And while Leach is kind of controversial, and the West Virginia administration is probably trying to avoid controversy, I think that's a good thing. It gets the tone away from, hey our coaches hate each other and one got kicked out of some casinos, and and toward, that wacky Mike Leach did the weather report again! What a character. It's called controlling the narrative, West Virginia administration. Do it.
