College football coach Mike Leach is known for three things--winning games, producing offenses that gain yards and score points, and finally, speaking his mind and saying things that go far beyond the cliché-ridden speeches employed by his coaching peers. In Squib-Kick It to a Fat Guy…, Mike Leach is unplugged. Author Alan Burton painstakingly gathered hundreds of his most memorable quotes to offer "Leachspeak" at its best--informative, entertaining, humorous, and even mystifying. Leach fans won't want to miss this delightful, revealing collection of unforgettable quotes.
