For all you Mike Leach followers

[cleller]

Here's an article I ran across about what the Pirate is up to these days. Good story, sounds like he's having a nice time.
Working on an autobiography, too.

very interesting !!

[swardboy]

Ha, what a life for a pirate.

I want to see him back in the coaching saddle, but man, when you go lawsuit on a former employer it's got to make potential suitors very wary.

Hope he gets a chance to couch somewhere again. It would be a waste if he didn't.

very good read. thanks for sharing.

I think Tech really is underachieving this year. Is Tubs heart really in his current job, or is it like we all suspect, that he's just using Tech to get back in the SEC? In any event, probably shouldn't question Tech till we see em play in person... this Saturday.

Boomer!

I listen to him almost daily around lunchtime on Sirius 122. He and Jack Arute have a college football show. It is awesome! He gives tons of X's and O's stuff, talks motivation of players, plus has hilarious input on anything. Great radio. Jack Arute does an awesome job as well. Didn't think much of Arute from tv work but really enjoy his input on the radio, surpisingly.

I know he kicked our arses outta the title game in 2007 and Tech was never a guaranteed win so long as he was coach, but I miss him. If he replaced Todd Graham at Tulsa, I would totally go to more Golden Hurricane games just to see what weird stuff he was brewing on offense.

I'd love to see him replace Craig James on ESPN.

I'd love to see him replace Craig James on ESPN.

I'd love to see him replace Adam James at Tech.

[soonerchk]

I'd love to see him replace Adam James at Tech.

Oh, I'm kind of enjoying the fallout.

[diegosooner]

He sure makes it fun.

[badger]

Oh, I'm kind of enjoying the fallout.

Leach never played college ball - four years of eligibility left! :D

[soonerchk]

I wonder if he can kick a field goal?

[Leroy Lizard]

I'd love to see him replace Adam James at Tech.

:confused:

[badger]

Chill, LL, just having fun. Here's another one - I'd love to see him replace Craig James as... what do they keep referring to him as? The last white running back to rush for 1,000 yards in the NFL? (http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story?page=hill/080926)

:rolleyes: what a landmark to get remembered for. oh craig, I can see why ESPN keeps you around to run team drills on meaningless thursday night football. :rolleyes:

[Leroy Lizard]

Chill, LL, just having fun.

Chill? It just made no sense, even as a joke.

BTW, I saw Leach do the weather. I don't think Craig James' job is in jeopardy any time soon, at least not on Leach's account. :)

[badger]

Copycat threads and posts are often nonsense, they are just for fun after all.

As for whether Craig's job is in jeopardy, the trial's still ongoing, so anything could happen, I guess. It already has effected Craig's job, in that he couldn't call Tech's bowl game and they might have altered his schedule this season too, not sure.

[ouduckhunter]

I wonder if he can kick a field goal?

HaHa! Let him walk on, and if he's worthy, put him on a scholly next year!

[badger]

Or hell, have him find a kicker the same way he did at Tech.

Leach: Free rent if you can make a field goal at halftime!

[soonerchk]

HaHa! Let him walk on, and if he's worthy, put him on a scholly next year!

I think it would be nice if we had a kicker who could also run the offense. Teams would fear us!!

He didn't have to work? I wish I could be as affected as Craig.

[Sooner_Tuf]

I thought he did work that game. Or at least they had him on for a few minutes to talk about how he didn't want Mike to lose his job. And how he wanted people to quit threatening his life.

[badger]

You're such a headache. Hold still while I pelt you with aspirin.

[delhalew]

His radio show is excellent, absolutely one of a kind.

Oh yeah, they paraded Daddy James out there as a part of the crucifying Leach show. That was a disgusting display that really took away from the game being played.
