Texas Tech Trainer says James was monitored

[Minnesota Mike]

Watched the video dirty - what a crock of shit, 1st he rambles on about james, his father and all kinds of other irrelevant things, then he states that he did nothing even remotely wrong and babbles about conspiracies against him. yea "everybody was against me and I'm completely the victim here"

The only issue is why did he treat an injured kid with a concussion like that? he must have had a bunch of other players throughout the year with concussions - how many of them did he treat that way - no doubt it was none. Good riddance to that wacko dirty.

I really liked it when Leach called anybody and everybody who says something against him "malcontents" - he's nuts, he should never coach again, at any level.

[Minnesota Mike]

Chris Perry is on the Scout Team and is Rooming with James at the Bowl Game... they are Best Friends....He has also been suspended several times for Academics and his attitude.... haha

I guess that swindall guy is another malcontent and when he says most of the players support james, he's lying. Charbonnet - must be another bad actor. Poor leach, everybodys against him.

[Dirty]

He was put in a Shed with a Ice Machine out of the Sun... He was not locked in it... the fucking Offensive line goes there to cool off during Hot practices... Give me a break..... Take off your Blinders... He did nothing wrong... the kids speaking out are his friends.. even the Interim Coach said Leach did not Mistreat the kid..... Leach was dead on about James' Spoiled Rich Ass

[Dirty]

Just like I said from the Get go... The Admin and a few Boosters Wanted him Gone and they got what they wished for Thru Craig James and his pussy ass son and ESPN

[Minnesota Mike]

He was put in a Shed with a Ice Machine out of the Sun... He was not locked in it... the fucking Offensive line goes there to cool off during Hot practices... Give me a break..... Take off your Blinders... He did nothing wrong... the kids speaking out are his friends.. even the Interim Coach said Leach did not Mistreat the kid..... Leach was dead on about James' Spoiled Rich Ass

Why are you obsessed with weather he was locked in? he was told to stay in there and if he came out he was in trouble, he was told not to sit down and had a "guard" watching him - that's called punishment dirty - not treatment. Leach is border line insane - you can tell from the video - the paronoia was easy to see.

[Dirty]

He was not Ordered to stay in there... IT was Doctors Orders to keep him out of the light so he was told to stay under the Shed.... they obviously had a NO Sunglasses rule... that was the best place for him.....Leach told the Trainers to do what the Doc said and they did.....Nothing More and Nothing less... James was pissed he couldn't run stand around like a douchebag with his shorts on, his hat turned backwards and his Shades on.... I know his type as I coached them when I coached Pro and College Prospect Baseball... I know parents Like Craig James... I have been thru EXACTLY what James did to the Coaching staff, etc....


You Obviously have never been a head coach of Top Athletes.....Leach handled it correctly and should do the same thing again.... If you read the emails in the PDF then you know the underlying truth behind this....

[Minnesota Mike]

Keep pouring it on with the excuses, it won't help the unemployed/unemployable Leach one bit.
Jesus christ - just cause you think james is weak, you excuse anything. Any other football coaches do this to their injured players? let us know if you find any.

[Dirty]

Leach did nothing Wrong.... Every Football coach in the country does things like Leach did and that is a fact....

I am not making excuses... I am stating FACT that Leach did nothing wrong and a bunch of panty wasted Faggot assed kids and One rich Daddy that was pissed did this .... YOu are the one making excuses because you obviously don't like Leach for some reason.... If what Leach did pisses you off then you had better start hating every High Schoo and College Coach in Every sport...Men and Women... it is a fact of fucking life

[doc mercer]

UNEMPLOYABLE Leach?

LOL ....


when ya done inhaling that bong slide that shit on over ....


speaking of Minnesota? They got their ass beat bye Iowa State and the Hawks
have whipped them 67-0 the last two years soooo ...

Minnesota would be the #4 pgm NCAA pgm in the state of Iowa behind the Hawks Clones and Northern Iowa

[Minnesota Mike]

Leach did nothing Wrong.... Every Football coach in the country does things like Leach did and that is a fact....

I am not making excuses... I am stating FACT that Leach did nothing wrong and a bunch of panty wasted Faggot assed kids and One rich Daddy that was pissed did this .... YOu are the one making excuses because you obviously don't like Leach for some reason.... If what Leach did pisses you off then you had better start hating every High Schoo and College Coach in Every sport...Men and Women... it is a fact of fucking life

I have nothing against Leach - I do however have a big problem with people who abuse power, especially so when it's done to the powerless. Men like Leach should be shunned by everyone in society.
Very classy of you to use terms like faggot, etc, because you can't conduct a simple conversation . Psst, dirty, james isn't listening, your insults don't hurt him.
Thats it for me, I'll leave you and doc alone now.

[Dirty]

It is just a term... and I know James isn't listening.... Who Would think he was listening or reading? Definitely not me.... I am not Delusional.....And Sure I can conduct a decent Conversation... but htat does not change my Opinion of the Pampered Rat Fink James and his Primadonna Daddy...... that is what this is about and Not Mike Leach


You are convinced Leach had this kid Locked in a shed or closet like he was in a Dungeon in the Middle ages ... and you are wrong... He did not abuse Power... He did nothing of the sort.... Just like I said above... Your Hatred needs to extend to every Coach at the High School Level and Above if something like this makes you scream for someone to be guillotined on the square ... Your stance against Leach shows how truly out of touch you are with How Athletics are run at every level past Little League

[Dirty]

Just go down to any Practice at any College in the Nation when you get a chance and you will see dozens of things a week go on worse than this at EVERY ONE OF THEM

[doc mercer]

I watched the ESPN interview ....

yeah ... Mikey is such a "bad ass"


Tx Tech .... it was easy to root aginst ND ... throw TT into the picture as this is
embarrassing

Now this changes the whole story quite a bit....

Texas Tech trainer didn't agree with treatment

By BETSY BLANEY, Associated Press Writer Betsy Blaney, Associated Press Writer Sat Jan 2, 5:09 pm ET

LUBBOCK, Texas – A Texas Tech athletic trainer told university officials he did not agree with Mike Leach's treatment of receiver Adam James after the player was diagnosed with a concussion.
In an affidavit released Saturday by the university, Texas Tech trainer Steve Pincock said he told James he was "sorry" for having placed the player inside an equipment shed near the practice field.
On Dec. 21, Pincock spoke with Tech officials, telling them that he did not agree with that "form of treatment for anyone" and that Leach "wanted James to be uncomfortable."
In an interview a day later, team physician Dr. Michael Phy told university officials that James "may not have been harmed" but he "considered this practice inappropriate."
The affidavits were dated Jan. 1.
Leach was fired as Texas Tech on Wednesday, two days after he was suspended by the university while it investigated James' allegations for mistreatment.
James is the son of former NFL player and ESPN analyst Craig James.
On Friday, Leach denied he mistreated Adam James and said Craig James lobbied frequently to get his son more playing time. Leach said the elder James meddled "more than any parent I've dealt with my entire career."
Leach also claims he was fired for financial reasons. He was in the first season of a five-year, $12.7 million contract.
Leach was fired with cause, which means the university does not have to pay him any of the money remaining in his contract.
Leach's attorney said he plans to file a lawsuit against the school.
According to the affidavit, Pincock told university officials that "Leach was upset and concerned about James' appearance and attitude" when the sophomore showed up Dec. 17 for practice wearing street clothes and sunglasses. Earlier in the day, James was treated by Phy and diagnosed with a concussion. Pincock said injured players are expected to wear jerseys, cleats or workout gear to practice even if they are not participating.
Pincock said Leach used an obscenity to refer to James and told the trainer he did not want the player on the field or in the training facility, according to the affidavit.
Pincock said the shed James was placed in is about the size of a single-car garage. The building had no windows. James was in the shed for two to three hours, according to Pincock's statement.
Two days later, James arrived at practice at the football stadium wearing what Pincock called, appropriate attire.
Pincock told university officials Leach said to put James back in the equipment shed, according to the affidavit. Instead, James was taken to a media interview room.
Pincock said he "noticed an electrical closet in that room, and walked inside." Pincock said, according to the affidavit, that he "commented on the noise in that room" and told James not to go inside.
The trainer's affidavit also states he was "not aware" of any other football player in his eight years with the program being placed in a darkened shed or room similar to James.
Pincock said in his statement "players with concussions were "sometimes placed in physician's examination room with the lights dimmed, or in a weight room or athletic training room."

There you go dirty - a sadistic head coach who was so desperate to show who's boss that he abused an injured player - good luck with that lawsuit and finding another job.
Scum like his should be barred from any position in organized sports.

[doc mercer]

James and Neil Reid should form a rock band called:

WE AIN'T MEN... WE ARE PURE SISSIES


Craig James .... STFU as your ass is one embarrassing lowlife

[doc mercer]

Pincock said Leach used an obscenity to refer to James

[Hoganknows]

[doc mercer]

Hogan pretty much summed it up ....

[Dirty]

Fuck James he railroaded Leach...I'll switch channels with James on ESPN now.

Leach is strange, but not going to hurt one of his player..he got screwed.

Exactly Hogan.... Wished I could boycott ESPN totally but they have most of the sports now

Doesn't change anything..... What he did would not harm that kid one bit... He knew not to show up at practice dressed like he did and he said fuck it... he knew he was going to get in trouble.... If it was such a Huge Deal why did this take almost two weeks to come out? He should have reported it immediately .... When the Admin learned about it they were going to keep it in house and put a gag order on anyone from Talking about it.... wonder how it got out to the press... CRAIG JAMES and his Primadonna pecker smooching ass .... It was a Railroad Job and anyone can see that.... James takes it to the Media after two weeks because he was not happy how Leach was going to be reprimanded in House and was not going to be fired... so he made sure that happened by Using his Job at ESPN to do that
