        Whenever I am not sure how to spell a word, I usually Google it. That being Said, Do you honestly think it is OK for a person to be sequestered in a Electric shed after sustaining a concussion?

            I hate Craig James. Leach just became 10x cooler to me.

              The player's side:


              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.

              Leach's side:


              An attorney for Leach said that while James was secluded twice, the circumstances were not as portrayed in that account.

              Ted Liggett, Leach's attorney, said James "was placed in an equipment room as it was much cooler and darker" than the practice field "after a doctor had examined him and returned him to the field."

              Liggett said that on that day, a trainer was posted outside the room and that James was provided ice. Liggett said that James was secluded for one to two hours. Liggett said that on another occassion, James was placed in a "press room with air conditioning and a stationary bike he coud use."

              Liggett also said Leach placed James in those environments was because "Mike tries to keep the players that are unable to practice as close as he can."

              Liggett said he will "soon begin" legal steps to overturn Texas Tech's suspension and allow Leach to coach the Alamo Bowl.

                  So he's suspended for putting a player in time out?

                      Leach, Leavitt, Mangino, they're all okay in my book but maybe I'm just old school.
                      Being "old school" doesn't equate to being a total *** pool.

                        Yes it does. Me and mine roll a little harder than most, so I do understand that this sort of thing shakes a lot of you guys up.

                            being "old school" will often land you in the shallow end of the gene pool, which appears to be the case regarding you
