Interesting that Texas Tech coach Mike Leach during the week of the biggest game of his career hasn't officially said No to the Tennessee job. He said he wasn't looking at any job openings now which translates to leave me alone so I can get my team ready for Oklahoma. The Vols have a ways to go to be an SEC contender but Leach is such a unique coach that he would be able to impose his style on the SEC almost immediately.
He might want to wait and see though. One more great year at Tech and he could find himself the head coach at Notre Dame if Charlie Weis ends up getting the boot after the 2009 season. Difficult choice for any coach looking to move up the coaching ladder.
