Summary of Jeff Benedict & Armen Keteyian's The System

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 In the fall of 1981, BYU was ranked #1 in the country in football. The roar of the crowd echoed across campus every time BYU scored a touchdown. Leach was a fan of BYU’s head coach, LaVell Edwards, and his innovative offensive system. #2 Mike Leach was a big fan of BYU football, and when he and Sharon married in 1982, they moved to Southern California so he could attend the U. S. Sports Academy. He never took the bar exam, and instead developed his coaching skills by working at several colleges and universities. #3 Leach was hired by Kentucky in 1997, and his offense was very successful. He then went on to become the offensive coordinator at Oklahoma in 1999, and was soon offered the head coaching position at Texas Tech. #4 When Mike Leach began recruiting Michael Crabtree in 2004, he had the most explosive offense in the country. Leach’s Air Raid offense put up 70 points against TCU in one game, and 70 points against Nebraska in another.
