MEDICAL: CONDITIONS: CONCUSSION : SPORTS: COACHES AND COACHING : SPORTS: COLLEGE: FOOTBALL: Leach, James' Reputations on Line Amid Allegations of Mistreatment Leach, James' Reputations on Line Amid Allegations of Mistreatment Stewart Mandel INSIDE COLLEGE FOOTBALL Posted: Tuesday December 29, 2009 1:00AM; Updated: Tuesday December 29, 2009 1:00AM Sports Illustrated <http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/writers/stewart_mandel/ 12/29/texas.tech.leach/?cnn=yes#ixzz0b6GzzGen> A shorter URL for the above link: <http://tinyurl.com/ybl2dag> This is going to get ugly. In the hours after the news broke late Monday afternoon that Texas Tech had suspended coach Mike Leach for Saturday's Alamo Bowl against Michigan State, as details of the allegations against him came to light, followed by the identity of Leach's celebrity accuser, it became apparent that we're headed for an all-out Lone Star showdown. In one corner, we have the revered and ever-controversial coach of a Big 12 program. In the other, a perturbed father who happens to be one of the most celebrated college players in the state's history and a highly visible television personality. It's Mike Leach's word vs. Craig James' word, with both men's considerable reputations on the line. Let the lawyers' fees fly. Leach's suspension and ongoing investigation are the result of allegations made by the family of sophomore receiver Adam James -- whose father, Craig, is the former star SMU running back and current ESPN analyst -- claiming Leach mistreated the player for missing practice with a mild concussion. According to the Lubbock Avalanche Journal, on Dec. 17, Leach "ordered James to stand in a dark shed at the Tech football practice facility because he thought James was faking a concussion he'd suffered during practice the previous day. Leach had him watched, and when James sat down, Leach had things removed from the shed so he could not sit. Two days later, Leach forced James to stand in a dark room for three hours." ----------------------------------------- The complete article may be read at the URL above.
