Mike Leach - Wedding Advice

[texascpa]

Was listening to ESPNU on SiriusXM and they had a clip of Mike Leach dispensing wedding advice to a SEC reporter on the field after their win against TAMU. It was hilarious. Anyone got the vid to link it to this thread?

One of my favourite coach interview moments. Was just on a golf trip with some buddies, two of which are getting married next year - this hit very close to home for them.

He still sounds like the lonely guy at the nursing home that perks up all the sudden to talk about a favorite memory for hours.

I loved his last line!

My college GF and I were pinned - (aka “engaged to be engaged”) and she always said that her Dad would be happy to give us $10,000 and a ladder.

Personally, when Corso calls it quits, I would love for Leach to take his spot.

I don't think this could be more spot on.

It's the entire quiet part out loud.

He just might be the next Roy Kent

Thank you very much. I am having a crappy day and then I clicked on this post. Mike Leach is just so funny. I love what he says about the groomsmen outfits. Thank goodness my three kids all had us wear blue suits. A neighbor invited us to his daughter's wedding and there the neighbor was wearing some form of wedding outfit that the women in his life had picked out. I think it was eggplant in color so he would match the bridesmaid's dresses. He kinda looked like Barney. It probably cost more to rent his outfit than a new blue suit would have cost

On focus heading into bye week:

Well I think we need to use our hands better. We don't move our hands very good. You know, when I was a kid and I was in grade school, there was this nice big dinosaur guy. I can't remember the gas station, but they would give you a free dinosaur [toy]if you filled up there. That's back when they had commercials on TV and then they would give something to the kids like me. And then the idea was that you should raise hell with your parents every time you're in the station wagon. We had one, a good classic like one off the Wonder Years, one of those fake woody ones, you know, fake painted-on wood. But then the best is it would always without exception the finish and the varnish on it would peel. So then it looked more bogus than ever. So we had one of those and of course I tried to sit way back, in that jump seat back there, so you could pretend you were in a spaceship or something, and, but anyway, so they'd have these commercials and they're hoping to get the kids to raise hell, 'Let's go to this gas station.' I can't remember what the gas station it was, and they'd give you a little dinosaur, you know. And you'd go to grade school and all that, and they'd start talking about evolution like as in if you don't use a certain part of your body, as time evolves over century upon century, in natural selection, that part of the body disappears and even that animal might disappear.


What? LOL, thank you Mike Leach for putting a smile on my face. I needed it after yesterday.

Leach is a quirky dude. He walks to campus every day. When he was at WSU, he used to walk like 5 miles through woods, fields, and trails to get to campus.

Giving this thread a bump, as it sounds like Leach is in hospice.

Some great interviews and quotes in this thread from the best CFB personality of this era.
