First, Tuberville slaps a graduate asst on national TV.
Second, Leach is accused of abuse again.

That is a well written letter. Leach is a cancer. I feel for the guys that have to play for him.

He is bat [deleted] crazy, but the coached up Tech into a fantastic program. Unfortunately, as a head coach, the crazy eventually takes over and leads to firings.

fantastic program? I don't think so. nice average big 12 program maybe, but fantastic is a pretty high bar that TT never reached.
Leach is low-end nut. notice he always goes where there is not much light being shown on anything (Lubbock/Pullman).

They were fantastic for however long it was between their win over Texas in 2008 and their loss to Oklahoma a couple weeks later. Outside of that, agree.

I don't think Leach went to Pullman because he didn't want the light of day shining on what he does. He went to Pullman because nobody else would offer him a job. That isn't being devious, that is having a lack of options.
As far as running 20 players off, I am surprised that is all he has run off. WAZOO was awful under the last staff. That would reflect in the recruits/players Wulf would bring in. Leach, on his best days could be called eccentric, knows the type of talent it takes to run his system and compete in a BCS conference. I'm sure he is not having that many good days and let's the players know what he thinks of them. Tech was never great under Leach, but they always were competitive.

New coaches always run of guys from the program (see what LB did in BB), but Leach's biggest problem is attitude. Whatever happens at Tech, it is clear that he has a problem taking any direction from management or keeping his mouth shut.
