Mike Leach waging information war on lost wages against Texas Tech
Mike Leach isn’t letting it go.
The Washington State football coach is still fighting to get what he feels he’s owed from Texas Tech when they fired him in December 2009.
Leach maintains that Tech owes him $2.4 million, which included $1.6 million in a buyout clause that Leach was owed if he was fired without cause.
