There seems to be an increasing amount of buzz in Stillwater surrounding the possibility of Mike Leach being named the new offensive coordinator at OSU. There are rumors that Leach was in town Monday and that he attended part of the basketball game that night.  Maybe, but head coach Mike Gundy and his wife were courtside, Leach not in sight during the game.  He could have been there.  There are suites at the top of the arena. Leach said a couple of days ago he was "shocked" that he didnt get the Maryland job.  Given the lawsuits against Texas Tech and ESPN, perhaps his best way back is not as a head coach, but a coordinator. Theres been conversation of some sort between OSU and Leach.  Dont be too surprised if they talk again soon, the guess here being it isnt just Leach as the consultant helping out the Cowboys.
