Here is the link to Mike Leach's Official Facebook Page.

Let's show our support for Coach Leach and keep it coming!

By the way I believe he should have been suspended but NOT fired.






Mike Leach: I would like to dedicate this impending victory to all my fans, especially the ones here on Facebook, from Kevin Burson to Bryan A. Garner.
Guns up!

Mike Leach: Brandon, we're gonna come out with our guns up! AAAARRRRRGGG!

Mike Leach: Where I end up coaching next year has a lot to do with how many fans I get on Facebook... so keep it coming!

Debby Mills: I agree!!!

Mike Jaster: These people at ESPN are absolutely fools. They have tried and executed you in a "Hot Minute" you stood up for what you believe in and I respect that. It is not about holding hands and eating cake. I do not believe you did anything that would hurt any of the players/folks on the team. Too much whining on their end they should suck it up and grow a ... See Morepair, this is a tough game requiring concentration, discipline etc. Otherwise they should join the scouts may teach them a thing or two.

You should carefully analyze a position for next year where there will be better support for you and roll with that and build a stellar program like you did with the Raiders!

Mike Leach: I would like to thank all my fans! Please, we need more people to support this fan page if we are going to whip Oklahoma as badly as we whipped State!

Mike Leach: I'm sure mac brown is great at recruiting and with the boosters, but mike leach makes college football a wonder to behold. congrats on tonight's victory.





(From Facebook) Petition to Keep Mike Leach a Red Raider


This a group for anybody who thinks Mike Leach is a bad a** and wants to keep him in Lubbock. I know the Leach no longer has the opportunity to go to Miami but I think we should still rally behind this great coach.

He has taken a nobody football team and put us in national headlines. I am tired of the fair weather fans trying to put him down for a still winning season. All great programs have their set backs. If we could support our teams despite of a few mistakes, maybe they would have enough confidence in themselves to perform at the level they are capable of.

Some Facts about Leach:

- Leach's offense produced school records in nearly every passing category in 2000, but surpassed those numbers in each of the last four seasons. His five teams have combined for over 150 team and individual records at Tech.

- The Red Raiders have improved their total offensive numbers from 324.8 yards per game to 491.7 yards per game since Leach's arrival. The last five seasons rank as the top five all-time at Tech in total offense, while scoring went from 23 points per game in 1999 to 36.2 points last season. The most significant increase has been in the passing game, where the Red Raiders averaged 399.7 yards per game in 2004 compared to 175.4 yards in 1999.

- In 2003, Heisman Trophy candidate and quarterback B.J. Symons capped off his senior season with an NCAA Passing Championship and an NCAA single-season record 5,833 passing yards. A year earlier, current New Orleans Saints quarterback Kliff Kingsbury finished his senior campaign ranked in total offense (2nd), completions (1st), attempts (1st) and passing touchdowns (1st). The record-setting quarterback also set 17 NCAA records during his career and tied three other marks.

- Additionally, recruiting has been one of the top beneficiaries since Leach's arrival in December 1999. The Red Raiders' 2005 recruiting class was once again ranked among the top 25. From his first class in the spring of 2000 to this year's list of newcomers, each class continues to get better. Not only is Texas Tech recruiting the Texas area, but Leach also is extending the reach of the program across the country.

- "Since Leach got to Texas Tech, they've basically doubled attendance, doubled ticket prices and beaten some of the best teams in the country," O'Hagan said. "He's had winning records every year recruiting against Texas, Texas A&M, Oklahoma and LSU.''
