"Not very tough" and "glad I am leaving." Wow. No wonder the kid is transferring.

Navy fired its coach, who's been there forever. 

You know what I think they need in Annapolis? A heapin' helpin' of LEO!

This sucks. Hoping for the best.

Hoping for the best for Mike Leach. Word is he had a massive heart attack. 

I recall a few years back, the same happening to Bob Huggins -- obits essentially were being written -- and he made it. Hope Leach can make a similar recovery. How can you not appreciate a coach who talks about candy corn in an on-field, post-game interview. 

The sports world needs characters like  him ...

Doesn’t sound good for Leach. Heart attack and then 10-15 minutes til first responders arrived to shock hit heart

No CPR in those 10-15 minutes?

One article I read said no medical attention for 10-15 minutes it’s feared there is brain damage

That's no good. I get CPR certified at work for situations like that. Not that I'll save a life but hopefully I can help just enough until someone that knows what they're doing shows up. Sad

Terrible, hoping for nothing but the best.

Ditto, rcs. I've had extensive lifesaving training in the past but basic CPR can be the difference in life or death and doesn't require much time/effort. I believe the classes are relatively cheap too.

I don't know the details but it's possible he wasn't found for that long. People having heart attacks can act weird and will often go somewhere to be alone. I had a co-worker die of a heart attack at work, even though there are about 20 people there (including myself) who are trained in CPR. Guy wasn't feeling well so he went into the bathroom and sat in a stall. It was sad, especially since there were people around who could've helped him. So it's possible it could have been something like that with Leach.

MSU 247 is saying Leach has been moved to a hospice care situation and used the words "matter of time". 

This is so sad and scary.

Always enjoyed listening to Leach and not even about football. Just an interesting character - very sad

For every minute that passes without treatment after sudden cardiac arrest the chance of survival drops 10%.  

Please seek help/offer help if somebody near you describes chest pain.  Don't wait.

RIP Coach Leach

Purdue going defense-first hasn't ever really worked. Good luck to them.
