Health reasons


quote:

In the last 48 hours, rumors have started flying about the future of Mississippi State head coach Mike Leach as well.

What I am hearing is that Leach may possibly resign due to some health issues. To be honest, he has not looked very good lately and has had a noticeable bad cough. This is all merely speculation at this point and I do not know anything concrete.

I truly hope Mike Leach's health is fine. He is a an American treasure of a character and would be sorely missed in college football. The last thing anyone wants is for him to get sick. John Cohen, the athletic director who hired Leach at State just went to Auburn as well and was a big part of his support system.


Mullen back to Starkville?

Yeah that cough has sounded awful lately. Mullen did a historically good job at State, despite what people say.

I think this is just a rumor that took off from a message board BUT he was in the hospital a couple of days a few weeks ago

If Mullen is ever allowed back to MSU I am out. It’s like in the last 5 years everyone has forgotten how shitty he was. Leach has beaten more ranked teams in three years than Mullen did in 10

I hope that Leach recovers quickly, but if this is all true, he'll be fun to have in a booth or studio.

He’s been looking like Danny DeVito as The Penguin. He needs some rest.

I hope he's ok. I've had a post-Rona cough for over 2 years and it sucks but that's all it is.

Wrote a paper on Coach Leach back in like 2019 for an Air Command & Staff College leadership course. He's an interesting dude. The American dream like Dusty Rhodes.

I love the Pirate. Always have.

One of the most unique voices is college football history. Texas Tech did him wrong and he deserved way better. He wrote a book that I'll one day get around to reading.

I hope the rumors about his health are just that. Rumors.

College football needs Mike Leach. I hope he coaches into retirement and becomes a commentator. I bet he'd be hilarious.

I’ve been hearing more rumors about this Leach health situation.

Multiple Twitter accounts hinting that this news is about to come out.

We would probably have more people announcing they were leaving if Leach's health was as bad as rumored. I think this was just some message board stuff.
