Leach May Come out on top after the Lawsuit

espn is doing a piss poor job of reporting this. It's kinda pissing me off.

leach has them on the hook for firing without cause-- they can do that, but of course they have to pay out the contract when they do.

more importantly, if you look at the so-called shed and shite, its clear that they put out a story through their own agents knowing it was false. and the jury will award leach punitive damages in the defamation case.

then it gets interesting. i figure leach has 20 yrs coaching left, at 2.5million a year in 2009 dollars. I'd spend 3 years litigating that, ask for remaining contract and damages of 50 million and tribel punatives. figure 200 million.

let them settle for 35 million and in 4 years be coaching again with a tan. pirates!

i will tell you this. there is a 100% probability that everyone involved in negotiations from the AD on down is going to get sacked.

eta: oh shite did anybody read leach's statement? it's on! i think i can post it since its a press release. hold on
