Iowa State and Texas Tech Respect
- Thread starter dualthreat
- Start date
RaiderPower.com, but like I said, it contains a smaller fringe element of our fan base(a lot of Leachers hang out there).
Just in case you wondered a portion of our former fan base has split off and now supports Mike Leach and Washington State over their own University. Pack of idiots. It really sucks having a split fan base, but winning cures all. If Tuberville can consistently win our fan base will come back together.

What do the rational fans think of Leach? I've seen the die-hard Leachers (as you call them), but I've also seen the polar opposite. Where do the rational fans sit? Is it somewhere in between?
If it helps at all I really hate Gene Chizik(Is that name allowed here?). I think he's a terrible coach, a cheater, and his success in 2010 was largely due to Tuberville's recruiting. I think he's completely screwed now that Tuberville's recruits are gone, and it's been a joy watching Auburn crash and burn this year.
I am not sure why Tech would demand any respect whatsoever. They have had one memorable season in their history? It is not like we are talking about the university of Texas here. It is texas tech, a school that nobody even knew existed until the big 12 was formed.
To be fair, I would say the same about ISU if I was from texas. So who cares. go play some football.

It's a very complicated subject and I won't bore you with all the gory details, but the rational Tech fan wishes Leach well and is glad he found a job and moved on. I've moved on, he brought recognition to our University and program, but his ego took over. I think he hit his coaching ceiling in 2008 and he'll never reach that level again. He got arrogant, lazy, and just didn't recruit or capitalize on the '08 season. That's part of the reason we struggled last year. I'm glad we have Tuberville, hope he can stick around.
I will be honest and sincere for the first time in this thread. I feel this is a great board, and most people that post on this board are pretty on spot with things. We have our doomers, and we have our a holes, but 90 percent of every isu fan is good ****. So we don't need 5 boards.
