I agree with 808Bass. I lived in quonset huts with a squad of Marines for extended periods of time (and “pup tents” in the field). But that has nothing to do with this situation.
Leach refused to obey his superiors. That’s why he was fired ultimately. And rightly so. Gross insubordination.
If I had done this in the Corps, I would have been in the Brig. Fast.
I understood that he was being fired over the alleged mistreatment of a player, which I think is a matter of perspective. I was just bringing up the basis of my perspective. I still don’t think the player was mistreated. I also think that unless you know exactly what the documents he was asked to sign stated than it is premature to fault him for refusing to sign them. Coach Leach does have a JD degree and understands better than most people what documents actually say. In the end, it really doesn’t matter what I or anybody else thinks about the fairness of his firing. Coach Leach is gone, he is not coming back and hopefully the actions of Hance and company will not end up costing myself and the other taxpayers of Texas millions of dollars in legal settlements.
His "superiors" set him up because the had absolutely no intention of fulfilling their contractual promises. That is bad faith and it is going to end up costing them millions.
