Damn this sucks.

It’s says last night so Snyder probably knew but wasn’t suppose to say anything.

There will never be a coach like him. Whenever I would stumble on a new clip of him being shared, I always knew it was going to be a good one every time.

RIP

Not very often a coach like Mike Leach comes around in the college football world. He will definitely be missed. Huge loss today.

It's undeniable the Pirate changed how college football is played. Pour one out for the Pirate.

Fly the Jolly Roger at half mast today boys. We lost one of the good ones.

Not really related, but I'm a little surprised you don't see more coaches having major health problems. A lot of them are old and in a stressful job and maybe not the best at taking care of their health.

The hours are absolutely crazy, but I suppose if you're doing what you love, it probably helps counteract some of that.

Not many people in the world of sports get to be innovators, but he certainly was one. A unique guy who brought a unique approach.

Cfb just got more boring. What a bummer. Craig James can eat ****.

Death had to come at him quickly otherwise he would have talked its ear off for another 40 years.....what a legend. Really glad we could sort of follow his career over the years. Left his mark on CFB.

I think it was talked about the last couple years how he would kind of go off grid in the Keys during the offseason. That's one of the ****** things about early death, not enjoying retirement.

There’s something to be said about that. You also see the guys that retire from this profession and quickly go downhill. Coaching is what keeps some of them going.

Had no idea he was a BYU grad with JD from Pepperdine

Thanks for all the laughs over the years. RIP Coach

I still remember watching Leach’s interview defending himself on espn over that whole ordeal and how fired up I was about that. I had no doubt he was wrongfully fired.

I can't believe he was only 61. I would have guessed 70.
