Wash State + Mike Leach= Problems

[DJCHRIS]

So, with this being thanksgiving and trying to lighten the mood regarding Dooley I thought I would change the subject. I am thankful we didn't hire Mike Leach. With the star WR leaving the team after being suspended Wednesday he has approached the media regarding abuse from coaches. So, not only are they losing but the coaches are verbally and physically abusing the players. Why would any parent want to send their children there after this is coming out. I wouldn't send my son there even if it was just speculation. Mike Leach's track record doesn't stand up very well with his past at Texas Tech. So, with all this going on with Dooley, just think it could be worse. The NCAA will probably be knocking on Wash State doors very soon.

Mike Leach is scum!

 

[Spartacavolus]

And half of VN probably wanted him

 

[govols120]

Because of his discipline of a player who was notorious for barely trying in practice and not giving his all for the team Mike Leach is a douchebag. Got it.

 

[SamRebel35]

Any proof that the players are being physically abused? Sounds like it could just be a trump card for a disgruntled former player to use because he doesn't like the coach.

Right. And these types of stories have never been an issue for Leach in the past.

Not sure about half but I do recall a lot saying they would take him in a heartbeat. I guess some people are willing to win a game at any cost.

The only difference between this and Adam James is that Marquess Wilson's dad doesn't work for ESPN/isn't a moron.

Exactly, which is why I am very skeptical of it happening again this soon into his tenure at WSU. I highly doubt this was anything but a disgruntled player trying to bring up Leach's old demons.

True or not, if I was an AD, I wouldn't touch him with a ten foot pole.

I'm not saying I would either, but the OP made it sound like it is a certainty the Leach is abusing players just because one pissed off player accuses him of it.

 

[EaglesVols91]

He'd still be better than dooley

True.

The only difference between this and Adam Jones is that Marquess Wilson's dad doesn't work for ESPN/isn't a moron.

*Adam James

 

[DJCHRIS]

I never said it was a certainty I am not in Washington or in the locker rooms. Only the players know what is really going on. Thats why I used the word speculation. Even with just speculation that never ends well with a program and a coach.

 

[LittleCat]

An AD would have to be on crack to consider Leach for coach.

 

[AJeray4TN]

*Adam James

No. Craig James' son is Pacman Jones.

Leach never abused a player and the Adam James incident was pure made up BS
Learn of what you speak before you slander a man

What if it were a 39 and a half foot pole?

This is VN bro.

 

[AJeray4TN]

Maybe then.

 

[VolunteerTitan3]

Maybe then.

Mr.Grinch=M.Leach lol:

Or they're willing to take a chance to make their program relevant.

The bold makes it sound like you have no doubts. I see where you said speculation later in the post though.
