Isn't UK already locked into Joker Phillips if Brooks retires?


well, he is the 'coach in waiting'.......but the way he calls offense, :zz:

Clever,philski.....you're a "bright star" in my world,too!

Leach's attitude toward the administration got him fired. he was on rocky ground with the AD. the act and his interaction with his "bosses" afterward finished him off. being owed $800k helped push the matter along.

How can this come out any other way than Leech is exhonorated.......TT needs to get the check book out and move on. Adam James obviously faked the whole damn thing once you see the film of the game and piece it together with how the neurologist treated him.

Absolutely no way it comes out any other way. The guy built the most successful program in the history of the school, never has a recruiting violation, his players graduate, builds studs out of leftovers after Texas, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, and everyone else picks through the state, and gets fired because some pretty boy selfish kid cries to dad.

He was the only one to give Adam James even a SNIFF of a scholarship, too.

a video should load as well with an interview excerpt with mike leach from last night.

Danzig 01-01-2010 09:31 AM

and now tuberville expresses interest in the TT job:

the only surprise for me is that tommy is still unemployed. he's a good coach, i can't believe his name has taken this long to come up in connection with an opening.

I'll say upfront I don't know all the details, but why are all his players coming out and saying what an a-hole he was and how glad he is that he's gone?

The current players? Because they are losers. You see the winners like Graham Harrell defending him.

all? or just a few? i'd imagine most players only want to win, regardless of whether coach is an a-hole.

I'll try and find the quote, but it was basically "we will be a better team without him as our coach"...WR I think

one guy saying 'we' doesn't mean the team is in step with that-they might start feeling differently after their bowl loss this wknd.

LSU needs a coach, why not Leach?

would lsu fans like that run-n-shoot offense of his? although he should be able to pull in some serious skilled players. lsu fans sure won't like leach's defensive teams.
i still believe leach got fired because he was disrespectful with the administration

I firmly believe that Miles defense is slowly evolving into the swiss cheese defense he had at OK St., so in that respect there wouldn't be much difference.

ESPN has been extremely biased in their coverage of this situation. Read any other site and you will find tons of emails which show people supporting him. Craig James is a pathetic man and he has bestowed his patheticism on his son.
