Weighing a hypothetical battle among Pac-12 mascots during a 2019 press conference was just one of the many hilarious moments provided by Mississippi State football coach Mike Leach, who died yesterday at 61. A football pioneer, Leach will be remembered for his innovative “Air Raid” offense that transformed offensive strategy across the sport.
But he was also an entertainer, and after his death was announced yesterday, internet users posted their favorite Leach rants, including this one on weddings and this one on Halloween candy.
