A Texas high-school assistant football coach was placed on leave Tuesday after an incident Friday where two players tackled a referee during a game. Assistant coach Mack Breed was placed on leave after he told the two players involved in the incident: "That guy needs to pay for cheating us," according to Northside Independent School District officials.
