Any talk on the board of this Mike Leach story?

I generally fall into the the category of “think about it from someone else’s perspective” but this being a story seems completely ludicrous to me. It’s a total reach to overlay any other implications on the post than a silly joke about being quarantined with your dumb husband

Only people who are looking to be offended will be offended. I agree it is ludicrous and a non-issue.

Yeah I think the one DT that's transferring was just looking for an excuse to transfer to somewhere else.

I just hope he recruits players who get him.

Dude is a national treasure. But I see how some could be offended, not by the joke, but by the image. He's in Mississippi now, not Washington.

Agreed. But I live in SC, just as touchy as any other southern state Re history

This isn’t the confederate flag, or other previously neutral items that have taken on another connotation. Would they be offended by a country western hanging a criminal? It’s just a reach, when in this context.

The Battle Flag of ANV's neutral, no more heinous than...

the Koran for those zealots whose death wish is to kill infidel.
I know the difference between Heritage & hate, I know the difference between honoring valiant dead and some jerkoff that can't play well with others. It's far from my responsibility to enlighten those that can't.
It is the PEOPLE that carry the Koran as their banner of hatred & death, not the inanimate object itself.
If people can't figure it out, perhaps they're just not bright enough to be in the conversation?

That was awful after looking at the pic. Yikes. That was extremely stupid on his part. That said, there are way bigger issues in the world going on right now. People are sick. People are dying. People are going broke.

Just like the rainbow and the word gay have been stolen from their normal meanings and uses, apparently SJWs have made it so that the only reason an old white lady would be knitting a noose would be TO LYNCH A BLACK MAN!!!!!!!!!!
maybe her husband is black? Did I miss that part? If so, then I understand the OUTRAGE!!

BUT! Some folks like a fire when there's not even a smolder. Heard one kid took it as an opportunity to hit that good ol transfer portal.

Don't think Leach will worry about it. He was looking for a reason to leave and this just covers his ###. He will not be missed and he won't help the next team lands at unless it is a Div-3.

Yeah...I liked his mascot battle one. That was the best. Hilarious. That said, sometimes jokes cross a line. I think everyone got this one. It just crossed a line for some.

No argument there.

One of his funniest takes was on the worst visiting team locker rooms and how bad they were.
His choice was Mississippi State where, ironically, he now coaches.
Everything was concrete. There were no benches, no chairs, and no lockers. Thirty seven nails on the wall and two toilets sitting beside each other in the middle of the room with no seats on the toilets and one roll of TP between the two of them.

Best press conferences by far, aside from Dabo of course.
