Browns coach Eric Mangini criticized Michael Crabtree, called him a diva. On a conference call Texas Tech football coach slammed Mangini, for whom he had contempt. "We'll see how all those divas up there in Cleveland do this year," Leach said.

He also said "Michael's accomplishments speak louder than Mangini's."

For what it's worth Leach portrayed Crabtree as shy and reserved in life and as only becoming dominant on the field. Leach didn't have much respect for Mangini.
