I wish Leach would have pulled his Viking battle axe off the wall. He was interviewed and said a burglar doesn’t have to worry about guns in his house. His weapon of choice is his Bearded Viking battle axe.

Good for him. Never really been a Mike Leach fan, but I hope they win the PAC-12 this year. More coaches need to have the guts to get the thugs out of college football.

Should they be booted for under age drinking also?

Smoking weed is one of the things he kicks the kid off the team for?

For everyone in the thread that didn't read the article, they were kicked off the team for theft. Not smoking weed. Not smoking weed is just a rule he has.

And the "what's worse" arguments aside.. it don't matter what is worse.. leach makes the rules. You know what they are up front. He can make any rule he wants. It's his program. And obviously what he is doing is working.

My favorite Leach quote
“There’s been cheating, there’s been paying players, there’s been guys cheating academically, there’s been grade changes, there’s been rapes, there’s been sexual assaults and even a couple of murders,” Leach told CBS Sports. “But only one school has refused to pay their coach, and it’s Texas Tech.”

I don't smoke, but I know of quite a few highly successful people that do. So this rule of smoking pot equals a deadbeat is not all encompassing.

There are different ways to consume cannabis. Also There are a lot of good studies out there on the harmlessness of the plant.

I'm 34, consider myself politcally moderate, middle class guy, married with kids, and smoke (or eat) weed a few times a month. I just use it to relax and for a stress free evening and i dont use a crazy amount either. For the record I hardly drink, maybe 2 or 3 times a year. The effects of alcohol just don't appeal to me and it's a lot harder to control my actions and focus versus with weed.

While I have never smoked pot,or any other street drug, they might as well legalize it.

But good luck staying out of jail until then

Plenty of scientific evidence indicating pot usage negatively affects memory, concentration, and motivational areas of the brain. Carry on.

Won't die but good chances you'll be a lazy 17 that offers nothing to society other than complaints

Moderation is key. Smoke a whole blunt and you probably ain't getting much accomplished besides playing Xbox and eating 4 bags of doritos but one hit or two off a bowl and weed can actually be quite pleasant. You should try it sometime. Might change your closed off mind. If left with the choice between only weed or only alcohol for the rest of my life I am picking cannabis every time. Oh and marijuana is totally legal in Washington and a **** ton of WSU fans are enjoying that freedom everyday so i don't really think it's all that cool that Leach kicks players off his team if they've smoked legal weed while in college.

I don't need no stinking scientific evidence, I lived through the 80's. Don't remember a lot of it but I survived it! Wait, what were we talking about?

You are more likely to die choking on food than you are smoking weed. So i guess everyone should stop eating. Its dangerous**

Nobody's talking about dying, there, professor.

Now that you mention it, though, there are plenty of foods that are harmful for you too.

Yea but you can bet this

If you were high when you choked to death, whatever you chocked on definitely tasted better!
