He's a raving lunatic....I've seen grown men tear their own heads off rather than have to work for him....

What a hypocrite! He sniffed the Bama job twice. Maybe he should demote himself.

Well, this is the beginning of the end. This jerk will run off any good coaching talent. Soon after that, the playing talent will follow suit. I hope you USF fans enjoyed your 15 minutes of fame. Thanks JL!

it was only a matter of time...

This is what happens when you turn a small program... Into a respectable one coach... Other schools will want people on your staff.... Looks like the nose of the ship is heading towards the water

i hate people with egos and r control freaks. He reminds me of a woman going nuts when her bf looks at another woman. its just stupid and will be his down fall at UCF.

He needs to be on medication. I know a good doctor who won't ask any questions "wink-wink"

He can hire Ty Losingham as DC and watch that 15 minutes turn into 5 minutes.

Yeah, you all know everything. Relax candy-asses. It's gonna be okay at USF.

my bad USF

Woolard (The AD) needs to cut "the Jim" off at the knees and take charge of the program. If he doesn't Woolard needs to be fired along with Leavitt.

This is a shame. What Jim Leavitt has done at USF is remarkable. 15 years ago, USF was the largest university in the country without a football team. Now they are a formidable D-1 program. You should expect, and encourage, your assistants to get offers of job promotions from other schools. It's the mark of a good program and, IMO, the highest compliment a head coach can receive.

However, when your assistants start making LATERAL moves, that's the sign of a program that has problems. USF will be fine in the long-run though. It sits in the middle of one of the most talent-rich states in the nation for HS players.

Someone needs to give him some downers, or hide his chocolate. He might be alittle ADHD. You guys are right he is at a great school/great location, but if he can't keep an assitant his talent won't come.

When I said that USF would be fine in the long-run, I meant if they were ever to part ways with Leavitt. My point was only that selling USF to a kid shouldn't be TOO difficult. There's no reason they can't be a consistent Top 25 team.

I have talked to a few ex USF players and they love the guy, but that won't be worth much if he has no good coaches to help the kids get better. USF should still be attractive if Leavitt gets fired because of its location and playing in a BCS conference. But there is the possibility that USF's prestige goes down as he runs off his coaches and that the Big East looses it's automatic BCS bid if it keeps going the way it has been lately. Then there is no difference between USF and UCF.
