According to one analyst, Jim Leonhard, the respected former Wisconsin Badgers player and coach, is a name he could see as a viable option for the vacant head coaching position at a Big Ten football program.
In case you’ve been living under a rock, Alabama head coach Nick Saban announced his retirement earlier this week, setting off a chain reaction of coaching movement. With Kalen DeBoer leaving Washington to join the Crimson Tide, the Huskies are now seeking a new head coach.
Fox College Football Analyst RJ Young thinks that Coach Leonhard, who spent the past season working as an analyst for the Illinois Fighting Illini, could be a good fit and is worth exploring.
