CFB: Leach, Texas Tech agree on new contract
Associated Press
LUBBOCK, Texas — Texas Tech and coach Mike Leach agreed today on a new contract after months of contentious negotiations.
Leach and Texas Tech had essentially agreed on the financial terms of a five-year, $12.7 million deal. But Leach took issue with several clauses the school added when the sides were trading proposals.
He was prepared to keep coaching under the remaining two years of a five-year, $10 million contract.
