Mississippi State's Coach Mike Leach Passed Away

Mike Leach is revered at Washington St. A lot of really nice posts.

 

The man is an icon and I will miss him every Saturday. I’ve never been a fan of anything he coached but I cannot wait to hear him talk when he opened his mouth. Probably the same way other fans felt about Spurrier

 

Wait for it..

 

If I'm being honest, this kinda hits me like Petty and Prince. Innovators, Gamechangers. Superstars that didn't take themselves too seriously. They gave back. They paid forward. Even in death, he was an organ donor, which takes you to the top of the list for me.

 

Sux. RIP coach.

 

Deeply saddening. RIP

 

This was great!! Thank you East! I loved Leach. Best “hard job” coach in America. And who knew Scott Pelle was a Red Raider.

Good read on the person Leach was…

Powerful.......thanks, Tommy......nice article!

 

What a great read.

 

Very sad about this

 

I don't know why I'm taking this so personal.

 

Not to derail, but you think of Prince as someone who did not take himself too seriously?

 

I suspect there will be many-many more stories like these coming out now.
