If you don't know shite about a situation, you probably shouldn't comment on it.

Craig james used his connections at espn to frick leach, james also hired a pr firm.

This dude sounds like a huge bitch, he says hes doing this to help save his teammates but released this letter a few hours before kickoff.

Tech suspended him before the report came out. Leach continually tried to interview for jobs or get leverage. Go read the court documents in what Gerald Myers and President stated. He also tried to get an injunction to coach the Alamo Bowl game. He was trying to bully Tech.

As far as James, Leach over stepped his bounds of authority in trying to prescribe Rx for James, that is the ATC job not the coach's. Once he did that he opened up a case for negligence.

What got him fired at Tech was trying to sue his employer.

You really have no fricking clue what you're talking about. James faked just about everything that went on.

He was suspended not fired then he filed a case, that's what fired him.

It's not Leach's job to determine if a player is faking an injury. Never was never will be.

I've read is that he conditioned players until they puked and then made them continue to do push ups, roll around, etc in their own vomit.

He didn't you tard. He didn't do anything different with James than he did with any other player on his team. The only difference was that James was a huge gaping vagina that thought he was above being a team player. And you seem to have bought into the spin Craig James' PR firm put out there about Leach being a bad guy. Congrats on being a gullible simpleton.

Leach v Texas Tech

Go read Techs response around page 3 or so in section 2 It clearly states Tech investigated and asked Leach about it in an interview.

Leach was given a chance to respond before suspended.

I'm just going off court documents, like you should.

ESPN didn't cause this Leach did.

Sounds like one of those "you can't fire me, I quit" situations.

And if you are going to throw out abuse allegations, how about sprinkling in some specifics with it

The WAZZU WR needs to provide a specific incident. I doubt Leach or anyone on that staff physically a used them, other than make them work. The verbal abuse is no big deal, as its matter of interpretation.

Pushing your players to the limit and getting in their face is one thing, belittling them and putting them down is another. Coaches are supposed to be hard on their players, yell, push them, etc, but beating them down with insults or whatever is not what it's about, and he has a history of this. There is big difference between a coach saying" that was stupid f**king shite" or" YOU are stupid as f**king shite. Both sound similar, but they are very different. This is what happens when people that never played the game, end up coaching at a high level. Leach has no clue what it is like to be a player. Offensive genius or not, that is not the way to get it done.
