MSU HC Mike Leach Says It'd 'Be Brilliant' for Him to Handle SEC Realignment

Mississippi State head coach Mike Leach knows just the person to handle the SEC's realignment: Mike Leach.

"They oughta let me handle that," he said Tuesday, per the Clarion Ledger's Stefan Krajisnik. "I'll have that done by lunch. I think it would be brilliant to let me handle it."

With Texas and Oklahoma incoming, Leach proposed moving Alabama and Auburn to the SEC East division. The Longhorns and Sooners would join Mississippi State in the SEC West.

"You knock those guys off and send them to the East and we have to play Texas and OU, tell me how I've lost on that deal," he said.
