Listening to Newy Scruggs and Richie Whit(less). After he filed the injunction against the University, they fired him so that he cannot coach the Bowl game.

Talk about a BS move. Craig James, regardless of his pedigree at SMU, overstepped by using his position at BSPN to get Leach fired. Yeah, he was watching out for his son, but if it was any other parent, it would not have ended up like this.

From what has come out the last 24 hours about the "shed" and "electrical closet" being BS, I'm really surprised at this.

Guess it's true that some on the board didn't like him and were just looking for an excuse to fire him.

Their receivers coach said James thought he new more about coaching than the coaches and basically thought everything should be handed to him. Probably right but you can't put the kid in a storage building.

Heard there was an obscure clause buried in contract = if he was still coaching on the last day of the year he was due $800K bonus ...

Obviously you can. You just get fired for doing so.

He'll get another job quickly. Maybe not as a HC right away but he'll make a great OC.

I wonder if there are some "fat little girlfriends" giggling on the Tech campus today?

Man, what a drastic turn-around. Didn't he just get an extension?

Yeah, $10 million extension with an $800,000 bonus that just happened to be due the end of this week.

I would love it if Leach went back to OU. I think he's a great coach.

From everything I've seen, the James kid was a whiny little biaotch.

Leach won't have to be an OC. Someone will give him an HC job, and he'll be good at it just like he was at Tech.

Injunction that Mike.


I put this on Gerald ****ING Myers, he's an old school dictator *****!

They will rue the day they did this, Leach was perfect for Lubbock and wanted to stay there. Now it's back to the dumps and a stepping stone for future coaches to pass through on to greener pastures.

STUPID MOVE!

Man, I haven't been this pissed since Jerry fired Jimmy
