Does anyone really give a damn anymore about this. If he is fired, who cares, or if he is not, who cares. Just shows how pussyfied this country has become. I can remember my dad telling me stories of getting no water for an entire 2 hour practice, or coaches beating kids with hoses for getting out of line, and now we have this jackass kid crying because he got sent to a shed. Who gives a **** either way, he is forever a Pus** and the coach is forever ruined over this joke. Damn shame.

the kid is probably a momma's boy but what is the purpose of putting someone in one of these rooms? Let them look at film or something. If they are being disciplined for some reason, kick them off the team for a few days. A screwy situation.

was calling it a garage supposed to be better? And I thought it was pretty clearly a shed.

And how about him pointing out that there was an ice machine yet its winter...like the ice machine is some luxury in there. Or the cooling fan (or whatever that was) for the ice machine...like he was staying at the Ritz.

After all of that my question is: why didn't he just get sent to the training room or locker room?

Im not passing judgment. I know there are 2 sides to every story so I don't know who is right and wrong, but that's what I got from that propoganda which had to have only hurt Leach by the mere fact the "tour" was given.

...there's any question that Leach was probably thinking that the kid was milking it and he was trying to deal with him because of that. But anyone who has played football has been subjected to similar things. Probably not at this level, but coaches talk smack when you're hurt, they challenge you, they run your *** off, etc.

Leach doesn't deserve to lose his job over this incident, but I suspect there's probably a bunch of other things behind the scenes that are contributing to the decision. But it's pretty apparent to me that the kid is a *****, too. This reaks of, "Do you know who my dad is? I'm going to tell him and he's going to get you for this." Shut up, stand in the damn corner until your head quits hurting, and go play football.

its clear he was trying to isolate him in odd spots for whatever reason (likely the one you stated) so the attorney looked like a dumbass (to me at least) trying to make it look like it wasn't that strange and trying to glorify those spots.

But I agree he shouldn't be fired over this and there must be more to the situation.

But its not surprising, he and Tech wrestled over his contract big time last offseason. The back and forth was made public adn its clear they don't really like each other that much.

I was actually thinking it was a 4X4 shed big enough for a lawn mower and a 2X4 closet big enough for a vacuum cleaner. So the tour actually helped Leach if the attorney would have just said here is the shed and here is the closet.

8Dog, that is exactly what I thought about the ice machine and fan. That is the funniest and strangest video ever. TT must be the lowest paying job in the country for Leech to have hired that lawyer. That my friends is your typical OM grad.
Also - Was he required to stand up the entire time or sit on the floor? He said stand up one time but never said sit or lay down.

Those TT jackasses should go to the Ole Miss baseball field if they want to see a real shed. (someone insert picture here please)

I played JC football in the very early 70's (yea, I'm old) and we were on the field by 2:30 PM and many a night left the field between 6-7:00 PM. JC coaches made sure we had fluids but my high school coach thought getting thirst during practice was a sign of being "not in shape".

Damn, the pussification of america is complete now when you can't even put a kid in time-out. Someone explain to me what's wrong with putting the jackass in a shed, garage, media room, etc... I fail to see the correlation. I don't see why Leach couldn't have told Craig James to go 17 himself and that been the end of this story
