Leavitt Wants His Job Back... He's "Gonna Fight For It, Y'all..."

((HT: WTVT-TV Tampa))

Jim Leavitt wants his job back... because he loves his players...
Don't all coaches...???

He doesn't want any lost wages... he just wants his job back...

Leavitt said today that he did not strike a player- linked to sophomore Joel Miller- during this year's Louisville game where it is claimed Leavitt grabbed Miller by the throat and slapped him. A letter from Leavitt's attorney, Thomas D. Roebig Jr., said that the firing violated the terms of Leavitt's contract and his state and federal constitutional rights.

Sure... we'll bite...

Roebig also claims that Leavitt was denied a pre-termination meeting, which he was "legally entitled to..."

Here's Jim Leavitt during his presser, thanks to our friends at MyFoxTampa...


Leavitt says the allegations were "misreported."
The HQ thinks Leavitt misremembered since Miller and his family have hired their own high-falooting attorney...
