[/highlight]What a stupid thing to say.  Leavitt was 39 when he started USF's program from scratch.  Who is the more focused coach???????Thank goodness we have the coach we have.  Levitt not only built up the program, he "invented" it.  Love Coach Leavitt.GO BULLS.

Ron Zook has always recruited well as he is doing well recruiting at frigin Illinois right now. I would say Ron Zook is a program builder also, but he just cant really coach.

Guest JulmisteForPrez Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 Yeah, I don't know how Zook does it. Eventually his horrible coaching and consistently bad records will catch up with him and he won't be able to convince these kids that they should come play for him.Zook was born to be a recruiting coordinator, not a head coach.

The problem is he's had problems coaching. I met Zook at a football camp when I was a kid and he was the nicest coach I have met, completely unorthodox. I hope he works out at Illinois.He's a great recruiter who if he changes a few things could be a good coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
