Update 5:18pm - Leach allegedly locked James in a dark equipment closet for hours.

Update 5:23pm - Adam James is the "unnamed student". Complaint is as follows:

 

Adam James had a concussion. He came to practice wearing sunglasses.

Mike Leach didn't like him having the sunglasses on.

Adam James told him it was doctor orders to help with concussion because of light.

Mike Leach took him to dark equipment room and had him stay there for a couple hours.

Just heard this on the radio. Only heard part- something about the fat girlfriends that his players date and that this situation is Mangino-like. Again only heard a very small snippet.

It's Craig James's kid Adam.

The "Fat Little Girlfriends" came home to roost.

They were just discussing it on ESPN.

Joe Schad said Leach's attorney was going to make an appeal that would overturn the University's decision, so that Leach could coach the bowl game.

At the half of the T A&M they confirmed that it is Craig James son that came forward.

 

Amazing these players today are so weak. Everybody knows that darkness and quiet are ideal for concussions. Well most everybody knows this.

 

Coaching is hard enough. Add in the new wimps that are the college player, and the coaches job has just become that much more difficult.

Tech football coach Mike Leach was suspended for ordering a player to stand in shed at the Tech football practice facility for two hours, then repeating the punishment two days later because he felt the player was faking an injury that happened during practice on Dec. 16, the Avalanche-Journal has learned.

 

A source told the A-J Leach did not dispute the facts, brought to the university’s attention by the player and his parent.

 

Leach had until Monday to write an apology and when he did not, the university felt it had to take action.

“This was not taken lightly,” the source said, adding that Leach did not show any signs of remorse or did not say he wouldn’t do it again.

 

The player suffered a concussion at practice on Dec. 16 and Leach thought the player was faking.

The next day at practice, the player was ordered to stand in a shed. Leach had him watched and when he sat down, Leach had things removed from the shed so he could not sit down.

 

Two days later, Leach had the player stand in a dark room for three hours.

 

During the university’s initial investigation, Leach said the player was a slacker and his father was always calling and acting like a Little League dad.

Funny line but one that turned up the heat on him no doubt.
