Went to the hospital this morning after an emergency situation at his home.

Interim coach has been announced. Not much in updates from anything. A few comments on Reddit have said he was supposedly on life support at some point or still is.

Update from Steve Robertson:

“There is only so much I am willing to post due to the sensitive nature of all of this, but things are not good at this point. I am going to respect Coach and the family’s privacy. I have learned some very disturbing details that I will not share at this point. Not everything needs to be printed no matter how bad people want to read it.

I understand Coach has undergone some tests in Jackson and that the situation appears to be dire. Yes, this is a life threatening situation. There is only so much people are going to share due to privacy laws and good decency. I can tell you that it appears Coach needs a miracle. Yes, I have received some of the text messages that are making the rounds, but I am told Coach is still fighting.

No! He's my favorite!

Also, why say this?:
I have learned some very disturbing details that I will not share at this point.

That just leads to wild speculation.

Clot shot?

Generates them more clicks.

Here’s the most recent update from their 247 board:

“As you can imagine, I have spent a lot of time on the phone. I have heard from former Bulldog coaches and players in addition to many other people in sports media. The sentiment of all of those conversations can be summed up in one word, shock.

I have been informed that Leach’s son and one of his daughters are in Jackson with Coach and his wife Sharon. Their other two daughters are expected to arrive on Monday.If this thing stretches on, we would like to put some sort of fundraiser together to help cover their lodging and meals. I know that all of you will step up and help. I hope we have to do that. I really do.

I am told that Bracky Brett met with the current coaches and players after practice today to bring them up to speed on things. As you can imagine, it was an emotional meeting for all involved. I am told the guys have taken it as well as can be expected and that they are united as a unit. The coaches met with their position groups and told them not to trust any rumors on social media and that if they had any questions to come directly to them.

Mississippi State commitment Chris Parson was on campus today as the news broke. Being the leader that he is, he got on the phone and rallied the troops and encouraged all of the commitments that he is in touch with to stay the course.

As far as Coach’s condition goes, I am told he is stable. That is not to say he’s doing well. He’s not. The family will have to make some difficult decisions in the days ahead and that could actually come to a head on Monday. I simply don’t know their feelings. My heart breaks for all involved. I do know that they need all of us. We must come together as a family in this difficult time. As concerned as we are about football, their entire lives are changing. We must be sensitive to that and support them all we can.

I am going to finally get away from this office for a bit and get some rest. I suspect Monday will be another long day for all of us. I will provide updates as we get them. You all have been awesome today. People like to say that we’ve been through worse. This time around, I don’t believe that is true. These are dark days to say the least. Perhaps the darkest in the history of Mississippi State. Lean on each other and let’s show a united front to the Leach family and the coaches and players who are directly impacted by this situation.

I love you all and Hail State!”



and to that, I say, “FUCK YOU!”

You want average Americans living paycheck to paycheck to pay for the lodging of a fucking multi millionaire??

:finger

:sigh :facepalm

:biglol at that reply


And here’s and update

Let it go! LOL

Sure ok. But I keep seeing reports of healthy people dropping like flies.

Looks like he’s not going to make it

Pretty low class to sensationalize this on Social Media.

Not you JD, whoever’s tweeting those updates.

Probably the same type of shit heads who post on Facebook what flavor their morning coffee is.

You’re probably right but I keep seeing reports that Biden is doing a good job so there’s that. LOL

Fuck.

:cry:

He's one of the most intentionally-funny coaches. I hope he's OK. Dude has a lot of good, fun ideas, besides his offense.

For most it probably is the vax. With leach it could be but he doesn’t give off the healthiest dude in the world vibes so when they don’t (obviously) attribute it to the vax I won’t fight back.

I get it, but take it to the GD board. I’d rather not hear covid conspiracy bullshit in college football forum. Same with politics.

Not bad for a guy who never played college or pro football.

We really don’t need separate boards anymore though

And he died.

Sucks for his family big time.

Very sad. And I have a bad feeling we’re going to see a lot more of this in the near future. Blame the liberals.
