RUMOR: JIM LEAVITT IN TALKS WITH COLORADO, TEXAS TECH (11/28: 1:23 P.M. CT)

247Sports Take: Steve Wiltfong of 247Sports is hearing that Oregon defensive coordinator Jim Leavitt has had conversations with representatives from Colorado and Texas Tech about their openings. Leavitt is lining up potential staff moves should he leave Eugene, where he's been DC for two seasons.

The 61-year-old Leavitt was South Florida's head coach from the football program's inception in 1997 through 2009. He has ties to both programs. Leavitt coached Texas Tech AD Kirby Hocutt when the two were at Kansas State and was extremely successful in two seasons as Colorado's defensive coordinator. 

Keep an eye on whether Kansas State comes open, as well.

Yeah, I would say bad sources but I honestly believe that he had planned on leaving when he walked out of the UL AD's office but changed his mind when Purdue came back with a can't turn down offer of 6 million per year.
