why would anyone pick him up when he couldn't even handle the pressure at Texas Tech?



He was underappreciated at TT. I don't blame TT fans for being mad about the lawsuit and how the Leach stuff went down, but Tubs was a coach that could have really solidified them as a competitive program and gotten around to doing stuff that was foreign to Leach (developing benefactors, growing the footprint, etc.). He probably wouldn't have won as much at any point, but he was the yin to Leach's yang that TT probably needed to really move from a gimmicky program to a legitimate major conference contender.

So anyway, I don't blame Tubs for wanting to get out of that situation, where nobody appreciated what he brought to the table.

...so he left the table, went to the restroom during a meal with recruits at a restaurant.....and never came back....yeah, I'd really like to have him as our coach.

under-appreciated my arse. He had exactly 0 winning seasons in conference play.



that was after 10 years of Leach who had exactly 1 losing season in conference.



BTW, Spike Dykes, their previews coach, only had 1 losing season in conference in 14 years as HC. In his 4 of Big 12 play he had none.
