Yet another member of the Texas Tech Board of Regents has asked a judge to dismiss former coach Mike Leach’s lawsuit against him as an individual. http://lubbockonline.com/node/10928/print
This time, on Monday, lawyers for Board of Regents chairman Larry Anders filed documents that rebutted Leach’s attempt to hold individual college officials responsible for the school’s decision to fire him Dec. 30 last year.
The coach was let go two days after being suspended for allegations that he mistreated player Adam James, who Leach believed was faking a concussion. To punish the receiver, Leach had him stand in a dark shed during practice for several hours.

Leach’s lawsuit not only names several Regents and other university officials, but also Craig James, an ESPN football analyst who is also Adam’s father.
Man, what happened to the Big 12 cocaehs of a sudden? It seems like they’re all crazy of a sudden.First, you’ve got Mangino at Kansas getting canned and the stuff that came out from up there. Then this stuff with Leach.But, think about who you’ve got left. Hawkins at Colorado is known for being a little unorthodox. Pelini at Nebraska kind of reminds me of Gunnery Sergent Hartman. Don’t forget Mike Come after me! I’m a man! I’m 40! Gundy at Oklahoma State and never forget Mack Brown’s second career as a poll lobbyist.That means you’ve got at least half the conference that’s a little out there.
