Keep that in mind, future Texas Tech recruits. Leach is plain-spoken anyway (refreshing lack of bullshit), but when he gets his ire up, it gets fun, it would appear. Responding to the chatter coming out of Cleveland pre-draft that Michael Crabtree is a “diva”, Leach said this:

Crabtree as a receiver has been more successful than that guy has been as a coach,” ManginiOOPS Leach said.

More on Mangini: “I think he took it upon himself to figure that in a few minutes he had all the expertise on the subject of Michael Crabtree that he needed. And so we’ll see how those non-divas up there in Cleveland do this year.

“Here’s the other thing: What’s interesting to me, a guy that really has not accomplished a great deal there at Cleveland or the Jets for that matter to publicly comment on A) someone he doesn’t even know and B) someone whose accomplishements speak for themselves and, within the specific field that Michael Crabtree’s in, Michael’s accomplishments speak louder than Mangini’s do.”

Really? Crabtree has no attitude problems? “No, there’s no diva in him,” Leach said. “He’s too shy to do that.”

Well that’s just completely awesome.
