Sooooo, how about that Mike Leach. So far it's come out that a player and a parent has complained, and Sports by Brooks is reporting that the player is Adam James, Craig James' son. Wow.

And ESPN is confirming that it's James.

http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/news/story?id=4776848

And the hilarity of the Tech faithful can be found on the comments in this page of the Lubbock paper:

http://www.redraiders.com/2009/12/28/leach-suspended/

Hoob.

I'm a coach apologist in general, so I want to favor Leach. I hope it turns out he is in the right, here. Arrrrrgh.

I think we've seen the last of Leach in Lubbock. They wouldn't have suspended him from coaching in the bowl game if they are planning to ever bring him back.

I get the feeling that AD will be gone before Leach.

Man, those e-mails are some great reading. I'm on the side of Leach now and think that the James' are being helicopter parents that raised a jerk.

Many observers think that the AD has had it out for Leach for awhile and resents having to deal with him.

The Harrell email was interesting in that he said James quit the baseball team because of playing time. The kid sounds like a douchey.

I think Leach will get canned before they pay him $800K on Jan 1. I wonder if ESPN will report anything negative about Adam James.

This shit storm has already been spun up and I think all that's left is figuring out the financial. How does he come back and move on after a suspension like everything is peachy? Especially if he's not granted a restraining order to coach in the bowl game.

I think it's plausible if the AD leaves. From what I've read those 2 don't like each other very much. It will come down to who is more valuable to the school.

Per Lubbock radio and multiple twitter feeds Leach has been fired. Supposedly the hearing was cancelled.

It's really not about James. The administration has been wanting to fire Leach since contract negotiations went sour last year. They would have found something else if this never happened.

I saw this on Texags :D :
Coach Leach has been in touch with Coach Sherman about Nolan Cromwell's(OC at ATM) status for next season. He wants to get back at Gerald(Tech AD), and he has figured out a way to do it.

This is not a joke.

So much for my intuition. Texas Tech just gave themselves the death penalty. Have fun in obscurity!

From the comments on Deadspin:

"I don't know if locking James in a dark room is reasonable grounds for dismissal, but letting a white guy play receiver most definitely is."

:D

saw this on EDSBS.com-

A FEW GOOD PIRATES

Gerald Meyers (Tech AD): *Coach Leach, did you order the Code Shed?*

Kent Hance: You *don’t* have to answer that question!

Coach Leach: I’ll answer the question!

[to Meyers]

Coach Leach: You want answers?

Meyers: I think I’m entitled.

Coach Leach: *You want answers?*

Meyers: *I want the truth!*

Coach Leach: *You can’t handle the truth!*

[pauses]

Coach Leach: Son, we live in a world that has sidelines, and those sidelines have to be guarded by pirates with swords. Whose gonna do it? You? You, Meyers? I have a greater responsibility than you could possibly fathom. You weep for James, and you curse the Pirates. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know. That James’s small shed, while tragic, probably saved games. And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves games. You don’t want the truth because deep down in places you don’t talk about at parties with your fat little girlfriends, you want me on those sidelines, you need me on those sidelines. We use words like honor, code, loyalty. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punchline. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very bowl games that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said thank you, and went on your way, Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a sword, and stand a post. Either way, I don’t give a damn what you think you are entitled to.

Meyers: Did you order the Code Shed?

Coach Leach: I did the job I…

Meyers: *Did you order the Code Shed?*

Coach Leach: *You’re G**damned right I did!*

Texas Tech fans are why I hate the average college football fan. They don't deserve Leach.

Should he make it to the November ballot, I'd vote on the other side even if it was someone I hated.

Here's a quote that I've seen on several message boards, supposedly from Butch Ford, the coach at Celina HS.

“When Adam went to high school here, there were two coaches, me and Craig James, Craig James coached Adam and I coached the rest of the team. I was NEVER so happy to see one boy graduate!”

I couldn't find it on a legit website.
