Volume II of “Squib Kick It to A Fat Guy” offers more

Release

Mike Leach is back by popular demand.

Sports presented by Indian Nation Wholesale.

The words and random thoughts of college football’s most interesting coach are chronicled in Volume II of “Squib-Kick It to A Fat Guy …’’ and 701 more memorable quotes from the playbook of Coach Mike Leach.  It is available ($19.95 – Anarene Books) online at most major book outlets.

This is Burton’s eighth book and he currently serves as special assistant to the president and director of university communications at Southeastern Oklahoma State University.

This collection is the sequel to the original “Squib-Kick It to A Fat Guy…’’ and 699 more memorable quotes from the playbook of Coach Mike Leach – which hit the (book)stores/online in the summer of 2016.

Since that time, after successfully rebuilding the Washington State football program, Leach has moved on from Pullman, Washington, to Starkville, Mississippi, as the head coach of the Mississippi State Bulldogs in the powerful Southeastern Conference.

Along the way, he has left us with a pirate’s treasure of fresh quotes and observations, that, quite frankly, coupled with his Air Raid offense, make the game of college football more entertaining and enjoyable for everyone. Author Alan Burton has meticulously and painstakingly compiled this unique collection which will be sure to entertain fans from Pullman to Lubbock to Starkville and beyond.

Volume II covers the “Best of Leach’’ for the past five years, as well as dipping back into his earlier days of coaching for some classic and unique perspectives on football and life.

In this volume, you will read about his views on a number of subjects, including music (“Disco and Woodstock” ); his players’ lack of effort (“Fat, Dumb, Happy and Entitled’’); his unique training methods (“Leach  Beach’’); his disagreements with the media (“Tweets, Big Gulps and a Sanctimonious Troll’’); his clashes with technology and certain Texas Tech officials (“Hi-Tech, Bye-Tech’’); and a chapter that challenges the imagination that is simply titled, “Hemingway, Hot Dogs and Aliens.’’

All of this fresh material and more comes from the coach who previously introduced us to “Fat Little Girlfriends’’ (referring to his Texas Tech players’ lack of focus against Texas A&M), and “Empty Corpses and Zombies,’’ (his description of some Washington State seniors).

The quotes are gathered from a variety of sources, including newspapers, radio and television interviews, websites, books, magazines, something called podcasts, and press conferences.

Burton’s previous book was Go to the Games with Humble – Kern Tips and the Golden Age of SWC radio — a one-of-a-kind book. For the first time, the history of the Humble Oil and Refining Company’s radio broadcasts of Southwest Conference football games are chronicled in detail.

Through extensive research and interviews, the books offers readers the chance to relive the golden days of radio. Also included are rare photos, comprehensive lists of the announcers and the games they called, an actual script of a broadcast, and a timeline of memorable moments.

Long before the advent of ESPN and the explosion of cable TV sports and eventually the Longhorn Network, college football fans tuned into their radios to follow the SWC teams. Humble, with its broadcast origins dating back to 1934, offered unbiased play-by-play action of all conference teams through the vast number of radio stations on its network.

Humble/Enco/Exxon sponsored SWC football radio broadcasts for 44 consecutive years, from 1934 to 1977, and during most of that time, televised games were few – limited to a few national and regional games of the week.

 

(Alan Burton is a 1979 graduate of Texas Tech University, where he earned a bachelor of arts degree in English. Volume II of Squib Kick It to a Fat Guy is his eighth book; previous subjects have included Texas celebrities, sports and music quotes, and a history of college football radio broadcasting in the Lone Star State.)
