JL's energy and passion are great. I wonder if the Mac haters on this board will give him the credit he deserves for this hire...I don't think it can be overstated how good a job he did hiring Leavitt.
:nod:So much this.

People knew MM was a good coach, but many wondered if he could get it done at this level. I feel people seeing him make the move to improve the staff with such a legitimate and huge upgrade there has added a huge amount of credibility to his vision.
And the facilities are no longer a joke, even though more will happen in the near future.
I like Mac a lot. But he really lucked out with Leavitt, from what I've read about it. Just one of those things.
:lol:
They knew each other a little big because they lived in the same neighborhood when HCMM was at SJSU and Leavitt was with the 49ers. I believe that Patrick Willis made the connect since he was playing for Leavitt and had been recruited to Ole Miss by HCMM.
Weren't they going to the same church out in Cal? Jesus brought them together.
I guess the lord DOES work in mysterious ways.
Mac has said that at least twice in interviews (Church).
In fact, Mac was hired 1/15/2003 by Bill Parcells of the Cowboys, from Ole Miss.
Willis committed to Ole Miss, only 3 days earlier on 1/12/03 (over Memphis).
It's well known that Mac was close to Willis et. al. and encouraged him to stick with Ole Miss, essentially continuing to recruit him after he left for the NFL. They remain close to this day although Mac never coached Willis.
Leavitt is also close to Willis.

We have a LONG way to go to catch up to the top 7 in conference.
Yep. Me too. The next 4 months will be key. I think we all believe that.

Smart kid, knows what he wants to do in life. Looks like he is going to be a kinesiology major.

I Phy is the current term, I believe.
Integrative, I think?
Huntley says he can get both Watts and Julmisse to commit to the Buffs.

Very tough and time consuming major, kudos to him if he can handle the workload and football

Rob seemed bound and determined not to accept that Huntley is a CU solid commit. Just what we have to deal with until the country finds out what those close to things know about the current state and future of the football program here (along with the competition, academic and community opportunities this place affords).
Yeah he seemed almost in disbelief. You got to love that Huntley says he can get both Watts and Julmisse to commit to the Buffs though.
Covers southeast region for Rivals.
Gotcha. Thanks.
