Can you believe it? There’s an actual movie about former Cougars and SD Chargers QB Ryan Leaf.  If you want to see the NFL Network’s interview with the director/writer/actor of the movie, click here. The official title of the movie is call “Leaf: The Movie”. More at www.myspace.com/parkinglotfilms

I also had to attach some other funny youtube videos:  Ryan Leaf -GREAT QB, BUST, DONTTALKTOME, SIMPSONS, Leaf: An Almost True Story

Here is the most recent story about Leaf courtesy of San Diego Tribune: November 6, 2008 

“Some allegations have been made and some rumors are flying around. We’ve been asked … to look into it,” said Griffin, who declined to say why police began the investigation.

Leaf, a former Heisman Trophy finalist who led Washington State to the 1998 Rose Bowl, is the quarterbacks coach and men’s golf coach at West Texas A&M in Canyon, about 20 miles southwest of Amarillo in the Texas Panhandle.

On Wednesday, West Texas A&M athletic director Michael McBroom said he and Leaf met Sunday and agreed the ex-quarterback should take a leave of absence. McBroom declined to say why Leaf is on leave and when or whether he would return.

This is Leaf’s third season as quarterbacks coach at West Texas A&M, which is 9-1 heading into its final regular season game. Quarterback Keith Null has completed nearly 68 percent of his passes and has 36 touchdowns and 14 interceptions. The team’s passing offense ranks first in the Lone Star Conference.

Leaf was taken second in the 1998 draft by the Chargers, behind Peyton Manning. He retired after four seasons, better known for off-field outbursts than on-field play. He finished his career with 14 touchdowns and 36 interceptions.
