Twitter goes off on Mike Leach after Washington State loses to Portland State

Washington State lost to Portland State of the FCS on Saturday and Mike Leach is not the most popular man right now

Mike Leach and Washington State opened up their 2015 college football season on Saturday with a game against Portland State of the FCS. With Leach never having lost to a team from the FCS, this seemed as if it would be a pretty easy win for the veteran, eccentric coach.

Yeah, well, that didn’t happen. When the clock hit zero in regulations, Portland State came away the winners in this one by a final score of 24-17. So, that little stat about Leach heading into this one is pretty irrelevant now.

Having not turned this Cougars program around yet the way many thought he would, Leach was already sitting on a hot seat. Well, after this embarrassing loss to Portland State, the internet acted accordingly.

I thought the Mike Leach hire was a home run. Yikes

Mike Leach was on the hot seat going into this year, not exactly the way you want to start the season. Gotta make some magic happen.

This is the first time I have ever questioned whether Mike Leach should be the head coach. That was about the worst thing to happen

I can guarantee you, WSU coach Mike Leach will be fired before the season is over.

Eh, that seems like a distinct possibility now.
