Leach, Staff, and Bowl game

[Lord McBuckethead]

We are all pulling for our Coach to get the attention he needs and make a speedy recovery. No one on here knows what is going on, but I am praying for Our Family member and leader of Our Team. I am not one to say I am Praying for this and that, but getting shipped to another Hospital could be serious or pretty ordinary. We don?t know, but whatever it is, Coach we are all thinking about you.

Given Arnett is taking the Helm for the near term, I am actually interested to seeing how the team performs under a slightly different coaching situation for the bowl game. For the first time in 3 years, Will is going to be getting play calls from a different coach with different sideline discussions. That could be an opportunity for our team to mix it up a little. Depending how the team rallies with the Head Ball Coach on the mend, it is going to be interesting.

Anyone know who is going to be in the cockpit for this offense if Leach isn?t back in 23 days? I am guessing either Spurrier or Mason Miller. Either way, it is going to interesting.

Get well Coach. In the meantime, go get ?em Bulldogs.

Beautifully stated .

Hughes is the Associate HC which means he's "technically" the 2IC. I do want to see Arnett run the show but why give people B.S. titles?

Arnette is being given the keys because we will have a new football coach in 2023. This is his interview. Our final AD interviews this week just got a lot more intense

Wow

[Coach34]

Yeah I'm not sure if Leach was going to wait until after the bowl game to announce retirement or if he was hoping to keep putting his problem off.

[Lord McBuckethead]

Not sure if this is accurate, but man I really hope he is on the sideline in a couple weeks with renewed love of his game.

I'm just focusing on September. He's got 8 months to get back into shape physically and mentally.

Leach has CHF. The hope is he makes it and can live out some years in Key West at this point. No way he coaches us in 2023

Sorry, I'm not giving up on him until I hear something official.

totally fine. Just preparing people. I hope he makes it

What? You don't trust Dr. Quinn, Medicine Coach?***

Seriously though this is probably the canary in the coal mine for Leach. I'd love for him to recover and return by spring but he may be realizing it's time to hang up the pirate hat.

Now you know you can function with CHF right? Unless he has been hiding how severe it is and he is facing late stage heart failure with a sub EF of 10% then he can still work. Give him some Lasix and he sees a cardiologist on the regular with a specific diet

This wasnt discovered recently. Leach has known for awhile. We are just learning about it this Fall. Leach is done as our coach. I'm hoping like hell he lives and can enjoy some years in Key West before moving on

I agree that he will probably not be here next year coaching, and honestly after this that is the smart thing to do. But he is tough.

I would just be careful about posting that kind of personal health information man. Not coming at you sideways but you know how it is

It is what it is. I havent violated HIPPA because I wasnt involved with his info in any medical situation.

We are all hoping he lives
We want him to be in the best possible shape he can to live out his days
Rumor has it he coded twice today- that is strictly rumor. I repeat rumor.

But he wont be our coach in 2023.

[Commercecomet24]

Life's more important than football. I really like Coach Leach but with what im hearing he needs to take care of himself and enjoy life for awhile and needs to step away from the stress of coaching. I wish he could stay at State but he needs to put health and family first now! I Pray he recovers completely and quickly!

Holy. Shite. just got the update, but you are correct. This is beyond CHF. This is praying for the family type event

[memsu06]

Praying Leach will pull through and be on our sidelines again.

It's not sounding good though. Even if he pulls out of it he's going to be out of commission for awhile.

I think we have a damn good staff right now and we need to keep them around. Make Arnett the head coach and find a Leach disciple for an OC.

I really don't see our new AD making drastic decisions after something like this.

May not have a choice. I know they were hoping to have a new AD by Christmas.

I hate to sound flippant but if I were MSU I would try to hire an assistant head coach if Leach wants to come back and is physically able to like a Chris Hatcher or someone like that who knows his system.

[TNDawg35]

So who is planning on calling plays in the bowl game?

A thought, but make Arnette head coach, go hire Graham Harrell as OC.

[somebodyshotmypaw]

I hope coach Leach heals. We are all pulling for him. But the odds of him being our coach in 2023 are less than 1%.

[WinningIsRelentless]

Now isn?t the time to be worrying about that. I?m sure Steve Jr will call the plays for the bowl game.

[Pancho]

One would assume either Miller or Spurrier or a combination of both.

[Santiago]

The team and staff right now, need prayers. Figure everything out later.

Rosebowl said the staff and players found out about the same time yesterday and it was a bomb shell for all of them.

They are not worried about the bowl game right now.
