HA HA HA, the Raiders continue to entertain in a “rubberneck at a car accident as your drive by” kind of way.

If Leach’s solution to college kids with bad attitudes is to lock them in a shed, how’s he going to handle overpaid prima donna pro athletes?

Imho Leach would fit into the zaniness in Oakland.

But he would need experienced coordinators, and Oakland has become a career killer, even talented coaches such as Rob Ryan could not hack it in the Asylum and wound up in Cleveland were he is about to be fired...along with “mangenious”.

He wouldn’t have to put up with enabling fathers who lobby for playing time for Jr.

Well, he's already had the right eye patch thing going, and a pirate shtick, which are like raiders, right?

Leach might be successful there if he could lock Al Davis in a broom closet while personnel decisions are being made.

He also attended Cal Poly SLO, so this is kind of his neck of the woods...

Thanks for the ping. This is so crazy it’s crazy or so crazy it’s brilliant. Leach has a gift with getting quarterbacks to perform and he moves the ball around well. Also, in Oakland, he could keep using “Guns Up!” as his motto.
