Leach being out of a job would be a Christmas bonus on top of my euphoria from our bowl win! Woo Hoo!

Are the rest of the schools message boards in to this as much as this one is?

Went to a TT board but didn't want to pay so did not check the postings. I suspect all the Big 12, the old SWC schools are probably saying the same things. I would also suspect the USC and ASU boards are pretty busy since it takes the lights off these programs for now. Just my guess.

It looks like there is just not going to be a reconciliation at this point. The media appear to me, to have written Leach out at TT. Just too much stuff at this point.

As for AJ, per CJ, "he loves TT" and the team is supporting him, so who knows?

There is a thread about an A&M player claiming Fran was really abusive.


With all the talk about abusive coaches which coaches do you think would be the least fun to play for? As in which coaches do you feel demean their player the most. From what I have seen, I would want to play for JJ as he seems to be the most laid back coach.

My votes go to :

Rich Rod
Bo Pelini
Mark Mangino

The NCAA should set up a "whistle-blower" line for athletes and others who may be aware of physical and verbal abuse. These high and mighty coaches and their assistants should be banned and face criminal and monetary punishment. For amateur athletes who are at colleges of higher learning, this is unacceptable behavior. Of course TT set a precedent for bullies by hiring Bobby Knight. Because he was a great basketball coach, his behavior was overlooked. Terrible message sent that rude, intimidating behavior is ok. It is hard enough for student athletes without having to face this kind of behaviour and knowing you can't complain because you will be ostracized(?) The same goes for the high school ranks and below too!

student athletes have been getting the shaft from Division 1A athletics for some time now

Question: has anyone seen/heard/read Craig James giving an interview about the situation to any media outlets other than ESPN?

Question: did they drag Leach's attorney out of happy hour to do his interview?

Why would he, unless perhaps ABC.
