Nobody said he wasnt a brilliant coach. But for whatever reasons State fans didn't show in big numbers during his time here.
Whatever that reason is, can be wildly debated. However I remember even Robbie Faulk mentioned the novelty(maybe he used a different word) of Leach had worn. It could be seen in the empty seats. Or opposing fans.
Fan enthusiasm or not, he finished his last 2 yrs ,500 when we were prolly expecting much less since all the pre-season rags were predicting just that. Leach's career wins over teams with much more on paper talent is off the charts good. With Will's limitations we sucked hard against quality D's which took the wind out of the fans' sails. It was indeed putrid. But would not have been had we had a QB with at least SOME semblance of physicality. He NEVER could get outta trouble and extend plays. But when had an extra 2 secs in the pocket he would dissect opposing D's like like a master surgeon.Nobody said he wasnt a brilliant coach.
