Let’s start with the IF.
If Mke Leach, Texas Tech’s football coach did what he is accused of doing …
If Mike Leach locked a player with a concussion in a dark room as a form of punishment …
If Mike Leach locked a player with a concussion in a dark room as a form of punishment—twice …
If Mike Leach did what Adam James says he did, he must never coach a college football team again. Not a Division I program desperate to win and willing to give a man a second chance. Not a Division II program looking to provide the venue for a widely-covered comeback story. Not even Division III, where the coaches are often high school-caliber. Never, ever, ever, ever.
But even if he coated Adam James’ body in Cheeze Whiz, locked him in a basemen and fed him to 10,000 rats; even if he forced Adam James to mop the Texas Tech bathroom floor with his tongue; even if he shoved a broomstick through his eye sockets and forced him to dress up as John Oates for Halloween … even if he did the absolute worst things imaginable to man, Mike Leach will get another chance to coach college football.
And that is a sad thing.
