Mack should hire Jim Leavitt! Just wanted to make sure you folks weren't missing me.

Yeah, but Jim Leavitt is living in Tampa and the Miami AD, Kirby Hocutt played for Leavitt at Kansas State. Interesting, huh?

Then what are they waiting for? Go back and listen to RV's podcast. He said he wanted a coach and coaching staff in place by the end of the season with the exception of maybe a couple of assistance that still have bowl games. The end of the season is in 6 days.

I simply disagree. UNT cannot afford $2,000,000.00 a year caliber coaches nor would they normally consider UNT.

First of all, they ain't facts. Second of all, who did I call a liar?

So if you were the K-Mart or Home Depot CEO you wouldn't hire Martha Stewart?

Which is more important for UNT's current situation, perceived baggage or proven head coaching experience?

Who doesn't know that? The question is can Canales deliver?

I don't think UNT is ever going to find any better coaches than Mike Leach, Dennis Franchione and Jim Leavitt. I'm pretty confident Mike Leach is not interested in the job and I don't know if Franchione is, but it is known Leavitt is definitely interested. Should Leavitt be given the benefit of the doubt balanced against what he could do for the program in the next 4 years? Even if RV has a problem with the allegations against Leavitt, why are they not offering the job to Fran? Why waste time looking any further?

Are you or are you related to Doug Woolard? Which large number? Do you mean all the ones that say it didn't happen or didn't happen as alleged by two disgruntled players that were 50 feet across the room? You really need to do some Googling and get the facts straight rather than continue to just make shit up.

Where do you get all this misinformation? 10%??? What are you talking about? He still has 5 years on his contract of $1.8 million per year. I tried to simplify the math for you as much as I could and you just don't get it.

His full salary/compensation was $1.8 million per year. The $66,666 per month was just his base salary from USF.

Don't be so sure it won't go to court. Doug Woolard is now trying to CYA with Florida Taxpayer money. He had his chance to settle, but refused. Not only is Wil Florin taking Leavitt's case on a contingency, but he is taking it at half the usual percentage. Leavitt's contract calls for a pre-termination hearing which USF denied him claiming it was an emergency situation because January 8th was getting close to signing day.

Let me see if I can help you with simple math... 1,800,000.00 - $750,000.00 = $1,050,000.00 X 5 years = $5,250,000.00. And in the process of winning this lawsuit it proves Doug Woolard had an agenda and smeared Leavitt to get out of paying his contract.

There was no investigation, so there was no cover up of something that never happened. Why do you insist on repeating the lie?

It's pointless to open a closed mind.

How could it be worse than the bad publicity UNT has generated for the last umpteen years? Winning will generate good publicity. You do want to win, don't you? You do want your program to be respected and not the butt of jokes, don't you? Hiring Leavitt will generate a few headlines and then be forgotten in a few weeks. What will be remembered will be his domination of the Sun Belt Conference.

Dude...I was responding in kind to your lack of manners and civil discourse. You went into a Roseanne Rosannadana rant with the fictional numbers mixed with a big dose of ignorance and then declared Leavitt an idiot. You are simply wrong, have no idea what you are talking about and don't understand the very basis of a lawsuit. USF trumped up some allegations, kicked Leavitt to the curb and then declared he was fired for cause. Leavitt filed a lawsuit for breach of contract disputing the "cause" AND he has a very strong case. Your declarations are not just based upon ignorance, they are based upon willful ignorance.

I own a condo in Broward County, so guess what? You simply have no clue what you're talking about and I believe it is you that should use Google and educate yourself and stop making a fool of yourself.

You just can't fix stupid... Fired South Florida football coach Jim Leavitt filed suit against his former school Monday and is seeking to recoup the more than $7 million left on his contract. Leavitt seeks millions It says Leavitt's firing will cost him $9.5 million, the value of his contract through 2014. Even if it is determined he was fired "with cause," his contract says that he is due $375,000, not the $66,000 USF gave him the day he was fired, the suit says. http://www2.tbo.com/content/2010/mar/15/151954/leavitt-files-lawsuit-against-usf-foundation/

It's complete misinformation like this rcade is putting out that keep people from knowing about the railroad cluster**** Doug Woolard has created at USF.

Cerebus has asked us to be civil so I won't call you the ignernt idiot you are. It takes two to come to a settlement and USF has absolutely refused to settle. They have even refused to pay him the one month severence called for in his contract if he is fired for cause. His unfulfilled contract does in fact come to $7.1 million dollars. I don't know where you came up with your figures, but they have absolutely no basis whatsoever in reality.

Anonymity causes people to be Sybil.

His attorneys are taking this on a contingency, so it's costing Leavitt nothing but time.

You would walk away from a contract that still owed you $7,100,000.00? Yeah...right.
