Is there a risk Leavitt wouldn't be the same? Sure, but having Stoops with him would make it worth that risk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe 3 to 4 seasons and everyone rides off into the sunset happy This was my original thought right after Scott was fired... Make it a longer term deal on paper, but have an agreement with Leavitt to retire if things don't go well. The reality is that anyone we hire is likely a short term thing, either they are great and get poached, or they are terrible and we have to fire them... I guess conceivably, there is a coach out there that could be middling that we would hang on to, but in this conference, with the talent in this state, there is no reason we should settle for less than double digit wins every other year at least. If I am VPMK, I am doing some back door deal with CJL, 2 years, come back, help raise money for the stadium, then... if you're not successful (bowl in year 2), retire and get a huge ceremony when the stadium opens.

XFL 2.0 May fold again. Who knows. The Rock may be able to keep it going. XFL did fold years ago, XFL 2.0 folded mid season due to the pandemic, XFL 3.0 is the charm and starts this spring, buckle up, it will be exciting!!!

Or, candidates like Mullen flying off the board elsewhere will leave me nervous incase we strike out on Prime and Chadwell. I could stomach a Mullen/Herman consolation. A WIllie Simmons consolation and I'll need a break 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one in the mainstream press is even talking about Leavitt. The only people bringing up his name are clowns on this message board and five people surveyed at the game, and those are probably people on this message board. No serious person would consider bringing him back. If you want nostalgia, go watch some old clips on YouTube. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
