Here's the literal deal. I, at one point in my life, lived and breathed USF.  Dave (Glaser) and I started usfbulls.com and I totally loved the climb to the Big East and real football.  It was ama

Again, I'll toss it out - Brad?  Dave?  Even McMurphy?

The Leavitt oust was a hit-job pure and simple. Most that have any tentacles in it know that.  I realize that it would, from Day 1, be a repair job but look at all the second chances out there. Countless examples and a total precedent.

I get Leavitt to the same school is a massive stretch, but the bottom line is 100% he'd be the best guy for the job.  You want to win games and fill the stadium and climb the conference ladder.  That's your guy.

Anybody else you are slapping your beans on the wall.

Listen, I know everybody is going to say no way in hell...

But honestly, isn't it the best outcome?  I'm not sure that goofball frame-job can be swept under the rug, but when I saw Petrino returned to Louisville I thought anything was possible. Absolutely anything. Roll Tide!   Are we clear that basically he was run out of town by Genshaft/Woolard for saying "he was the most powerful man in the building?"  

Here's the thing - college football is an UGLY business.  Leavitt is probably the only one that gives two violation about his program and would stay (unlike Taggart, etc) at any level of success.  He's probably the guy that lands you in the Big 12.  I know the egos at 4202 E. Fowler won't like it and there would be an ass-ton of backpedaling, but it pretty much needs to happen.

Dave?  Brad?

No way as long as Judy is at USF will Leavitt be back.   Move on

Your assumption is the president is the most powerful person at the school.  Let's see.

It is pretty obvious that Leavitt is going to get back into head-coaching.  So your answer is "anywhere but here"?

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.
