Sometimes when a person shows some really weird behavior, there is actually something wrong with them. Case in point.

The player had a concussion and wouldn't get off the field, so he locked him in the equipment room from what I heard.

Just saw this on ESPN. Mark May and Lou Holtz said that if these allegations are true Coach Leach could be in A LOT of trouble.

This was posted on another forum -- TIFWIW:

Saw this on a TT board. Apparently, it was posted yesterday, before this broke.

"No surprise here. My dad talked this morning to Brik Brinker's parents who are some family friends of ours this morning at church and there could be an investigation at Texas Tech under way soon. Some of you know that I played football at Frenship High School in West Texas and the Brinkers are some of our family friends. Brik played at Frenship and is now at Texas Tech.

Anyways, my dad asked if they were going to the Alamo Bowl and they said no, that Brik was left off the team (no surprise, hamstring pull) but he told my dad that Adam James , son of Craig James, had a concussion this year. Toward the end of the year he wasn't practicing and Leach was not happy. Leach made him walk around the practice fields every day all day during practice. Apparently Leach was pissed that James showed up at practice with sunglasses on and when asked why he was wearing sunglasses to workout. James said he was sensitive to light and the doctors instructed him to wear them due to symptoms of the concussion.

Leach then instructed Adam James to take out all of the equipment in the equipment bins and sit throughout practice inside of them. He had to do this 2 or 3 times. (Those of you that are wondering, the equipment bins are big huge bins on wheels that hold footballs, towells, pads, etc...) Well The Pony Express caught word of this and wasn't happy. The NCAA was called and Mr. Brinker said that there was going to be an investigation coming soon. It wouldn't surprise me if Adam enrolled at SMU this next coming season. What a piece of sh*t. With everything Mangino went through at Kansas, Leach may not be safe. Who knows, don't shoot the messenger."

If the allegations are true, firing is inadequate. Put his azz in a cell. In the dark. With Bubba.

Anybody who has paid any attention at all to Leach should not be surprised by this. The guy isn't right.

I am so glad he was not hired as coach at Tennessee, he has always struck me as odd,cooky,scattered brained etc. instead we got the Kiffins and Coach O.......:) he reportedily stuck Craig(Pony)james kid in a dark closet for three hours..for not practiceing with a concussion...if true what a crazy S.O.B.

Leach is a weird guy, that is just unimaginable. I would have told him to shove that scholarship where the sun doesn't shine. Then give him shiner for good measure. After that tell him to talk about my fat girlfriend again. Ego tripping idiot.

You know we joke about it, but if it were my son we would have serious issues. "Football" tough is one thing, abuse is entirely another. If this is true, he deserves what he gets. This doesn't compare with grabbing a facemask and shaking it.

Mike Leach is a horrible coach that rode on the success of Harrell and Michael Crabtree. Leach should never be considered for any job in the SEC, or the PAC 10. He's a crappy coach who has a fat ass wife probably.

I agree but wasn't joking. I just used the smiley because I changed the post. I think it would be perfectly reasonable for Craig to corner the dumbass pirate in a darkened room somewhere with no other people present to let him know what he thinks about childish torture tactics.
