re: 15+ years of TD check-in

This nostalgia thread reminds me of my short time putzing around on a now-defunct site called TigerU. During the post-Saban coaching search, I saw a new member pop up on their sports board posting day and night how stupid LSU would be if they hired anyone other than Mike Leach. A few of us engaged with him, mostly in troll form, and he started to get legitimately upset. Turns out one of the members of the site did some investigating and found out that it was Leach’s brother Tim.

He then threatened to sue everyone on the site for attempting to destroy his family’s reputation, but we were all like, dude, nobody on earth cares who you are.

Cringeworthy article that made me laugh

"It's a little-known fact," said Tim, laughing. "Who do you think trained him to be a coach? It was me." When Mike was a teen and Tim just 8, his older brother drew plays in the sand and had Tim run pass routes over and over again. Mike demanded exactness and perfection and Tim ran the slants, the outs, the post-flags. "I'm the one that had to do all of that — with my own sweat and blood, mind you," said Tim.
