Mike Leach being sued by former players | Fort Worth Star-Telegram

Mike Leach is once again engaged in another legal battle over college football.

This time it involves former Washington State football players Zaire Webb and Anthony White Jr. The two were dismissed from the team in October, a day after Pullman Police cited them for misdemeanor third-degree theft at a Walmart.

In December, the charges against Webb were dismissed due to insufficient evidence. Although, the school informed Webb that his scholarship would be pulled at the beginning of 2018.

Webb’s lawsuit, filed March 2 in Whitman County Superior Court, argues Leach, the former Texas Tech and current Washington State head coach, arbitrarily and inconsistently punished players for various misdeeds.
