Now maybe Leach wasn't punishing him for having a coma. Maybe he was punishing him because Craig was a prima donna and Leach had had enough of his shit. But it was pretty stupid to create the impression that he WAS punishing him for having a coma, since the team physician diagnosed it. And it was even more stupid to dig in his heals and refuse to try to defuse the situation. He had to know that the Texas Tech administration might jump at the chance to fire him, since they openly talked about firing him last year during their heated contract negotiations.

The sad thing is that everone involved is now much worse off. Leach has lost millions of dollars, the Texas Tech football team probably won't win nearly as many games the next few years, and Craig James and his son look like a couple of assholes.

Mike Leach will eventually get another head coaching job, but he won't get back all of the money he lost.

There is sometimes a price to pay for arrogance, even if you're really good at what you do.

Reading the trainer's affidavit, it appears that he was punished for showing up to practice in street clothes and wandering around instead of showing up to practice dressed and staying in the injured players area like other injured players.

Then, someday when the Raiders play here in a snow storm, we can royally **** them right out of the playoffs!

It will be funny seeing Haley with 2 former head coaches. For sure the golfer will throw a tantrum.

Yeah, like either team will be sniffing the playoffs anytime soon.

OK, valid point.

Do you have proof of that besides it just being a rumor? Thats pretty ****ing stupid of Pioli to just hire a guy for 1 year. I would have rather hired a younger guy like Boles and been done with it.

Or possibly that it was a concussion, not a coma there doctor.

I think you're right.

Mike Leach would have been better off if he had said that up front, instead of trying to make it sound like he was 100% concerned for Adam James's welfare and he put him in a place where the sunlight wouldn't bother him strictly out of concern for the player. That sounded like 100% bullshit when he said it.

It's not that stupid. If he had in mind that Crennel would be the DC after this year, I am not surprised at all that he would hire a guy who he is so familiar with in Pendergast as a stopgap, since he had coached with him in Arizona.

Kent Babb is tweeting that Robert Kraft is in talks with Hunt about buying the team.

Dang. I was loading up a smart ass response and then I saw that I did use coma a couple of times when I meant concussion. Maybe I should get a proofreader.

Yup, especially seeing as how late the Assistant coaches were hired, Pioli was likely like, oh well **** this year, and just hired Pendergast.
