Texas A&M's Sherman: Leach words are "bothersome"
11:49 PM CDT on Tuesday, April 28, 2009
Texas A&M football coach Mike Sherman has answered Texas Tech counterpart Mike Leach one more time in a verbal battle sparked by the NFL draft.
After Leach wondered in a SportsDay interview Monday where Sherman, a former NFL head coach, would have drafted former Aggie quarterback Stephen McGee, Sherman issued a statement Tuesday night:
"There is nothing Mike Leach could ever say that would offend me," Sherman said. "I do find it unfortunate, however, that a college coach feels the need to question the handling of a player by a staff particularly without any knowledge of the facts or the extent of a player's injury. It is equally bothersome that a football coach would question the draft status of a player. This doesn't make any sense to me.
"I have stated numerous times before the draft I thought Stephen McGee was a late third or early fourth-round pick. It is apparent the Dallas Cowboys felt the same way. It was a great pick."
