I graduated from Texas Tech in 1991 and follow the athletic/football program closely. Yesterday, they beat Virginia in the Gator Bowl. They were behind 14 points in the 4th quarter and somehow managed to win on a field goal with two seconds remaining 31-28. Mike Leach-Head Coach has always run an explosive and cartoonish offense but has absolutely no regard for his own teams' defense. They cannot protect any lead and will let inferior offensive talent dominate their defense at the line. They cannot tackle or make a stop whenever needed. Their defense cost them at least two games this year against Oklahoma State and Colorado. I begged Mike Leach via email to hire Phil Bennett as his defensive coordinator next year to replace their current "interim" defensive coordinator Ruffin McNeil. Please, heed my call to hire a professional defensive minded coach to run a defense in Lubbock, Texas next year!!! I'm just a fan, but one who cares!
