North Texas hires WSU OC Eric Morris as new head coach

On Tuesday, former Washington State head coach Mike Leach was the center of the college football world. The legendary football coach and personality died at the age of 61. The innovator of the air raid offense may be gone, but his impact on the world of college football will live on for years to come. Not just in his memorable quotes and innovative offense, but in his extensive coaching tree. Countless coaches have been touched by Leach and his air raid scheme and, on Tuesday, that sequoia-sized tree got a little bit bigger.

North Texas has named Washington State offensive coordinator Eric Morris as their new head coach.
