Everyone loves The Pirate, right?

[Ozzieman81]

Pirate already addressed it I think... Said "no comment" basically.

Yea think he also said we only talk about players on the team or something along those lines

 

[JD08]

Did Andrew say you weren't very tough?

He once said I wasn't a high profile poster. I Tried to show him that prolific beats high profile when high profile isn't prolific.

 

[TheOriginalCane]

Not a good look by the kid honestly. Just a little petty lol

And Leach isn't petty?

I'm not saying I would have done the same thing, but it's pretty god**** funny.

I don’t know why anybody would want to coach now in this society and having to deal with these soft *** drama laden kids. The stories I hear is something from a day care lol. No amount of money could make me step into that world .

While I tend to agree with you, I do find it pretty amusing that this is happening with Leach. I'm sure Leach isn't the first (and won't be the last) coach to tell a kid he isn't tough, but this is the first time I've ever seen a coach called out for it like this. Given Leach's history, I would bet that he tends to overplay the "tough enough" card.

Kid ran for some good average yardage on an SEC team. If he handles himself well in an interview with a prospective new team, I wouldn't be surprised to see him get another chance. We can pretty much guess that he's going to be highly motivated to show Leach up with some solid future performances at his new home.

This is one I'm gonna want to monitor. And laugh about if the kid does well at his next stop.

I promise that if I join the CIS transfer portal, I won't torch @Andrew on the way out.

I can do it for you

 

[grover]

Never liked Leach. Very glad we said no thank you. But this kid went about it all wrong.

p.s., If you want to incorporate some of Leach's offensive concepts, hire someone from his tree who is less toxic.

So im not supposed to respect a man that doesn't like weakness???

Bizzaro world.


Kid proved leach was right.

 

[BostonCanes47]

Sounds like leach was coaching him hard and trying to raise his game to another level like a good coach should do.

[BoxingRobes]

Did Mike Leach stuff this player into a dark, hot utility closet in the middle of the summer in Texas?

If not...I don't want to hear it.

 

[StPeteCane]

Personally I think the college world is a horrific line of work. Having to suck up to these kids and get them paid and recruit them. Now you gotta recruit your own players while coddling them. Plus if ur not saban you will get fired. College head coach gotta be the worst job in this country

College head coaches are paid the durations of their contracts whether they're employed or not, so it can't be that bad.

I’m exaggerating a little obviously. The pay is great. But man the job. It’s tough recruiting with the portal now. Gotta recruit high school, the portal and ur team

Obviously can only speak for myself. The kids that really get it and buy in make it worth it. There are definitely those 3 kids on every team that make you question your life decisions.

This...I just got offered an off the field job at a school and didn't even hesitate to say no.

or go in the shed

Infamous 'shed', 'closet' in Leach case revealed - NBC Sports College Football

A lot has been made of the rooms Adam James was “confined” to while suffering from a mild concussion and and the subsequent accusations that led to the suspension of Texas Tech head coach Mike Leach.They have been described as a shed, a garage and/or an electrical/broom closet depending on which...

I used to think college coaching salaries were too inflated and they made more money then they should but now I feel they don't get paid enough...Well let's be honest either way they get paid enough... But **** what a tough job!!!

 

[SpikeUM]

so basically he's upset his coach called him soft lol

The Pirate's nickname for him is "Carvel"

No, they make more than enough to deal with it. Now the educators who have to put up with this behavior, are another story.

Yeah that’s one where you write it out if you need to blow off some steam, but don’t hit send lol.
