The idea of an AD eventually getting fired for hiring the wrong coach is familiar, but this case takes it up to warp speed.

Well, or the right coach. Leach is an odd bird but seems like a perfectly solid hire given Tennessee's place on the pecking order.

Rumor has it he went rogue and circumvented the boosters (or really the main one, Jimmy Haslam - owner of the Browns) to try to get this done.

Can't see why the AD would do that, Haslam is a great judge of talent.
