Mike Leach To Paul Petrino After Beating Him 42-0: "Fu*k You"

Washington State thumped Idaho 42-0 last night in what was yet another pointless NCAA football blowout, but the game in Pullman at least had some postgame fireworks—thanks to the head coaches, who had to be separated.

Cougars head coach Mike Leach put his starters back in near the end of the game when the Vandals threatened to score in an attempt to preserve the shutout; Idaho skipper Paul Petrino presumably said something to Leach about this during the handshake, which prompted Leach to reply with a "fu*k you." That Cougars-Vandals rivalry is getting intense.

nothing more over-rated than preserving a shut out. Leach is a turd.

No doubt he's an arse, just like Patterson but you know what, they can coach. They have their players prepared and they can recruit. If JJ had left for ASU, I think we could've got the Pirate. We'd see a much more competitive team after two recruiting class out of Leach.

No doubt he can coach. And if he were OUR a-hole, I'd support him to the bitter end, but since he's not, screw him...

Idaho may be the worst job in college football right now - no conference, no history, no money, and their instate sister school has become a nationally recognized top 25 contender.

Beating the Vandals 42-0 is like pinning a mentally handicapped child in a wrestling match and then kicking them when they try to get up. To hell with Leach.

WSU went 2-10 in 2010, including a 35-21 loss to SMU.
WSU went 4-8 in 2011.
WSU went 3-9 in 2012.
WSU is 3-1 thus far in 2013 under Leach's regime, including a W over USC. Leach is a proven winner in football.

How classy is being a football joke and a non-entity? That is the place SMU is fast approaching, if it has not already arrived?

At least Leach appears to give a damn (which is more than I can say for some coaches), even if his way of expressing it might offend some HP hyper-sensitivities.

Isn't this literally the EXACT same thing that happened when Phil Bennett was here? Something like TTU wasn't going to win by enough, so Leach threw all his starters in and was desperately trying to pad his lead, which led to fisticuffs at midfield?

Yep. Not a Leach fan, but I'd take him and winning over losing any day. TCU fans will say the same about [Patterson].

Leach is no different from that classless act Paul Bryant. In 1976, with a 56-3 lead, late in the fourth quarter when the lowly Mustangs mounted a drive that threatened to get within field goal range, Paul Bryant sent back his 1st team defense to shut the Mustangs down and preserve the 53 point margin of victory.

The only difference is Meyer didn’t say anything about it to Bryant and Bryant didn’t resort to foul language to express his feelings. Both men seem to consider it nothing more than a football game.

Deadspin might say that Leach said that but it doesn't look like it on the video.

If ya'll think that RGT would've hired Leach after the Craig James fiasco you're on something I need to get a hit of ASAP
