College football definitely changed without him in it. RIP Coach!

The world has lost a truly great man today.

Coach Leach was not only a brilliant football mind, but more importantly, he was a genuine and outstanding person. He was a diamond in a profession that is inundated with narcissistic personalities.

He meant what he said, and said what he meant. Always unapologetic and true to himself.

He could have been a stand-up comedian, and made a killing at it. He had a great knack for telling stories, and a great sense of timing for delivering punchlines.

I believe that the true legacy of a man isn’t measured in how much wealth he accrued during his time here on earth, but on the number of lives that he positively impacted and touched. Mike Leach is a great example of this.

Prayers for his family and friends during these difficult and sad times. May he now rest at eternal peace for all eternity.

Mike leach will be sorely missed possibly my favorite coach in my life time. RIP

I told my wife, "I've loved two things in CFB the past 20 years.. the Miami Hurricanes and Mike Leach". One made me laugh, one made me cry.

Also, well said @CaneTheGaytors ^^

Love how he could keep a straight face talking about things just nutty…

A champion of the understated personality and clinically dry humor. Also coached some ball and seemed like a genuine, humble, affable soul in a sport that tends to produce sociopaths and narcissists. He shouldve been on our screens for another 15 years at least. What a tragedy. What a loss.

it's not hyperbole to say he was my favorite coach not to be head coach of Miami. Really sad right now. Prayers for his family. God got a good one.

Same… I love his offense and admired his swagger.

Ditto... Love this.

My wife who is a big Toby Keith fan said Toby who was ML's good friend posted a touching statement on the Pirate's passing on Facebook.

Mike Leach will be truly missed, and fondly spoken of for many years to come, and in that way, he still lives.

Not only was he an offensive innovator, his acerbic wit and entertaining personality made him memorable and lovable to many of us. He will be remembered fondly by millions.

An unattributed proverb states: “Good men must die, but death cannot kill their names”

Rest in peace Coach Leach, and condolences and peace to his family.

His sense of humor reminded me of Senator John Kennedy from Louisiana. "Christmas ornaments, drywall, and Jeffrey Epstein - name three things that don’t hang themselves."

Thank you, brother!

It’s a great loss for the world, not just CFB. We need way more Mike Leach’s on this planet.

Great article about Mike Leach. I had no idea the "tree" of people attributed to him.

 

[Gables Canes]

I feel like I lost a close friend today, this **** hurts.

****, the world lost a good coach, but more importantly, a good man. What a unique and creative mind he had. He'll be missed. If I was picking one coach to hang out with for a day, it would've been him.
