HBO camera tails Mike Leach

HBO WAS IN in Pullman for the second-straight day on Friday -- and this time, they were filming Washington State's practice. There has been no announcement from WSU or HBO but at the Cougs' thirteenth practice session of fall camp, there were multiple cameras and producers on the ground.

There were at least three camera men as well as a boom operator and producers on the field Friday.

The crew got some footage of the Cougars, practice but that looked to be B-roll material. The main attraction?

It was pretty much The Mike Leach Show as the HBO cameras followed the Wazzu head man around pretty much nonstop.

On Thursday, four HBO representatives were on hand for the Cougs' practice.

Multiple reports earlier this week reported HBO was in negotiations with four schools -- Washington State, Arizona State, Alabama and Penn State -- to allow cameras and filmmakers on campus this season to create a behind-the-scenes type of show similar to Hard Knocks, one that would focus on each program for one week.



Hard Knocks, in its 14th season on HBO, takes viewers behind the scenes and inside the NFL locker room for a glimpse of what goes on prior to game day.

Mike Leach said he wasn’t bothered by the camera crew at #WSU’s practice today. He also said in order for everyone — camera crew included — to get their work done, ignoring each other is important. pic.twitter.com/pXzf7jTDqr — COUGFANcom (@COUGFANcom) August 17, 2019
