I'm winning, but I have the lowest possible score, so even if I chose correctly from here on out, I probably won't keep the lead.

 
Alls I gotsta say is that I'm 10th with only 3 out of 10 correct. Glad we're scoring on the curve with this one.

This has been brutal so far.

I thought it was pretty brutal when EITeabag had you covered and he didn't even make any picks!!! talk about embarrassing .... :bananapowerslide:

Yeah.

So, you know how when a politician is getting their ass handed to them in an election, they... "respectfully withdraw their nomination"...

I'm gonna do that to save face.

 
So how many of you had Miami beating Wisconsin? :D

 
There has to be more to that story. I'm no medical expert, but sitting (supervised) in a dark room for a couple of hours when you are diagnosed with a mild concussion doesn't seem like horrible abuse to me.

 
The real story is who the kid's daddy is. He's the son of Craig James who was a star at SMU, played in the NFL, and is now an analyst for ESPN. When you screw with somebody famous, you usually end up on the short end of the stick.

 
All accounts (other than the James family) have come back that the kid felt "entitled" and was a brat, talking back to coaches and not giving 100%. So, when he showed up to practice stating he had a concusion and couldn't practice (when the week before he had been giving running as a punnishment with 3 other WR's for not trying hard enough)... Coach Leach put him in a room, supervised.

I think Leach was trying to make a point, but nothing (NOTHING) he did put the kid at any risk whatsoever. Sounds to me like daddy got pissed, and is taking his wanker of a son's side of the story.

Leach is left holding the bag. Funny thing is, the story goes that no other D1 program wanted this kid, and Craig James talked with Leach and convinced him to take him onboard. Lot of good that did him.

I think Tech is stupid to fire him for this very minor (if any) infraction. The AD must have been looking for a reason, and I hope that Leach can take them for everything they are worth. He'll land on his feet OK, with him gone, no matter the hire, Tech will struggle for a few years.

Do you think Notre Dame wishes they had waited on hiring Kelly?
