LUBBOCK, Texas -- Texas Tech fired coach Mike Leach on Wednesday, two days after he was suspended by the school as it investigated his treatment of a player with a concussion.
The school handed a termination letter to Leach's attorney, Ted Liggett, minutes before the two sides were to appear in a Lubbock courtroom for a hearing on the coach's suspension.

I sure hope Adam Jones already moved all his stuff out of Lubbock because if not it’s just gone, baby.

He was filing an appeal to his suspension so that he could coach the bowl game. It was wierd, but apparently a necessary part of the appeal process.

So Leech gets a $2 million check in his pocket and gets to take the Florida job (if it opens up).

Well at least he didn’t try to beat down an assistant coach then he’d be in no trouble at all.. ask the Raiders. heh.

I know what the allegations are; but, I have to take Leach’s side on this one without knowing if the allegations are true or not. With the attitudes of today’s players, I’ll side with almost any coach almost any day.

No. If I understand that’s why they fired him now to avoid paying him more.

AD Myers must really be a piece-of-work-egomaniac.
I have to say, too, that my opinion of Craig James just dropped a couple of notches.

I’m sure behind the scenes the words, “lawsuit” emerged somewhere.

They did avoid paying him more. He was due $800,000 on 12/31/09 if he was still the coach on that date.
