CFB without the Pirate just won’t be the same. He’s also a transplanted conch. Dammit I hate this. I love watching his teams play ball. When it’s time for your switch to flip, it’s gonna flip.some not so good news about Mike Leach. He’s an interesting character, I hope he pulls through. The world needs more pirates like him.

Seriously?...a sketchy/bullshit claim by some pissed off entitled brat and his Daddy equates to this?...your fuckin' equilibrium is waaaaay outta balance...
"According to multiple sources, Leach, 61, collapsed at his home in Starkville, but did not receive medical attention for between 10 to 15 minutes. EMTs used a defibrillator machine and delivered multiple shocks to restore normal heart rhythm.
After he was stabilized at Oktibbeha County Hospital, he was transported by helicopter to UMMC.
Sources said two of four his children are already in Jackson with the other two en route.
It appears, according to sources, that Leach may have suffered seizures with the possibility of brain damage. Sources said the situation is dire, and MSU said Leach was in "critical condition" in a statement Monday."

I feel bad for his family. But I have no sympathy for bully coaches. None. A major University does not fire a successful coach off of “sketchy” claims. He did it.

Well at least you admit he did it. I don’t care who it was done to. It was wrong.

Two sad stories don't make a happy ending. I hope he recovers fully and you can give him shit for years to come. It would also give him the opportunity to atone for past mistakes.

If you think sticking a "kid", and I use the term very loosely, in time out in a shed is "bullying" then Boothy was right about where this country is headed...

He was isolating him and treating him like shit because he had a concussion. There is a huge power dynamic involved between a head coach and an athlete. If you think that isn’t bullying I don’t know what that says. The kid might have been a douchebag and his father too, doesn’t make it right.
As for what Booth thinks or doesn’t think doesn’t mean a damn thing to me.

Yup, and he paid for it, and went on to turn around two more programs and countless lives. He had one big “oh shit” and a boatload of “atta boys.” I reckon he’s on the plus side of the ledger.

Nope!...the only bully in the whole piece was that nutsack Craig James who used his pulpit at ESPN to pressure the TT Athletic Dept. to sack Mike Leach and attempt to destroy his career...his kid was an underperforming, low talent wide receiver with a major attitude/ discipline problem...and the "lockdown" was nothing more than a time out...which is pretty pathetic for someone of college age...
- Leach testified that he did not specifically instruct James to go there, but said he had no problem with it as James needed to be in a dark place because of his sensitivity to light. (The space is big enough that the offensive linemen go there during special-teams drills to eat ice.)
James said he was monitored by a trainer, went to the bathroom at one point and “thought the idea of it was funny.”
James said he went into the electrical closet for part of the Dec. 19 practice.
James said in his deposition that Texas Tech athletic trainer, Steve Pincock, took him to the media room and said, “I want you to stay here.” James testified that because Pincock was standing near the electrical closet when he said “stay here,” it was his “assumption” that he was supposed to enter the closet.
I think we all know the saying about what happens when you make assumptions.
“Nobody held my hand and put me in there, no,” James said of the electrical closet. He also added, “Nobody said, ‘Adam, stay in the media room.’”
Paul Dobrowski, one of Leach’s lawyers, said: “Mike is no saint, but he never harmed Adam James. Under his contract, Mike is responsible for team discipline. Mike properly treated Adam as a concussed player who violated team rules, had been a discipline problem, and was a distraction to the team.”
