Remember, this guy went to law school. Can you imagine this guy in a courtroom?
MIKE LEACH ALERT
- Thread starter ruxCYtable

That's it. Some weird humorous guys know that they are odd and funny, so they play that. It is some of my favorite humor. It's like Zach Galifinakis in some ways.
It's not so much that he goes on the rants, it's that he puts so much effort and thought into such ridiculous topics and as it goes on it gets better and better.
Well the other thing is that most coaches don't enjoy answering questions. He seems to enjoy it and I think people like to see that once in awhile.
On this week's episode of Mike Leach's "As the World Turns":
He references Spicoli. Solid work out of coach.
You KNOW that the local sports media spitballs questions to ask him every week, just to see what would get the most bizairre response. It would be pure gold to be a sports reporter in Pullman right now.
That is so brilliantly awkward.
P.S. Did you see the player give Leach the rabbit ears during the interview? Can you imagine someone doing that to Campbell? Maybe only JaQuan Bailey!
The one about Oregon being the loudest stadium is a classic!

Or this NSFW locker room speech with 37 f-bombs in 6 minutes. I'd love for @ChrisMWilliams to ask him if we was putting on a show for the camera.
That’s him normally. He rarely talks about football, but ask him anything else and it a 30 minute conversation. We were talking about some of the people we both knew from Tech and it ended up being a 30 minute conversation much of it spent on how to dig fence posts and the different methods you can use. I’m not making this **** up. Neither of us are fans of fence pole digging. He wasn’t trying to be funny, that’s really him. Everyone in the Atheletic Dept. has an impression of him or story.
I watched the Alamo Bowl presser and all I can say is people expect him to say something zany and he tries. It's apparent that he tries. And that's what gets tiresome for me - trying to be funny because other people think you should be funny.
I guess the crazy stuff he says , forced or not, is still more interesting than 99%of the coaches intrrvinte where they spew the same boring cliches.
