- This is our first video - on a guy who was as entertaining as he was genuine… and all that aside was just a legendary football coach for his offensive innovations and resurrection of multiple mediocre programs.
A warm and sincere welcome to our brand new channel. There is no one here yet but that's ok. Hopefully by folk 55 there will be a few viewers. Enjoy and we’d extend an invitation to join us for episode 2/55. We'll try to get better at this along the way and uncover some neat folks and stories.
This was great! Thoroughly enjoyed watching it! I miss this guy!!! Funny story, I called the wrong number one time, I got a text back that just said "?" I texted back and said must have dialed the wrong number who is this? I got a text back, "Your number came up on my phone who is this?" I texted back and said my name and that I was sorry I must have dialed the wrong number but not sure who this is. I got another response back "This is Mike Leach. Either way, have a great day!" LOL! This turned into texting back and forth for over 2 years. When Mississippi State came to play Auburn in 2021 we met up at the team hotel and chatted for a few minutes! Absolutely great guy and total character!
Thank you for sharing. I'm a die hard lsu fan 1st an Hail State fan. I'll see coach my favorite in heaven an hope to say t you
Thanks for lying.
LOL! Why would I make something like that up? @@rediknight9056
I heard this story too. I never tried to convince anyone it was me though
Why y'all hatin'? I have done that myself, what Leach did. I LOVE to talk to strangers. I didn't always, but retired and miss having new people in my life.
Great piece on a very interesting and entertaining man/coach. Craig James was almost the antithesis from his college through professional career!
Hell yeah. RIP Coach. Thanks for the good times.
I haven't followed football in years so I didn't know who Mike leach was but I watched the whole video and enjoyed it. My favorite part was when he gave the player the name nick
Very well done! I graduated from TTU in ‘02, so was very fortunate to be there during the Leach era. He was a great man who enjoyed life and cared very much for the coaches and players around him. His Sword was definitely swung! He’s a Red Raider for life! 👆🏻
Incredible drawing! I was at Tech, Mike's first year. The guy is a legend. Team Leach forever!
As someone from the UK I'm not a American Football fan and I didn't know this man, that being said, I thoroughly enjoyed this. He was certainly a character
Edit. Him trying to decide which mascot would win was actually brilliant
Really good video, thanks for putting it together. Can't say I was a fan of Leach's teams, but was always a huge fan of the guy. He had a uniques perspective on pretty much everything and that includes his approach to the game. He's one of the real characters in the history of college football and one whose presence is sorely missed.
They'll never be another Coach Leach. Great video!
This was amazing, thank you for making this. And my god are you a talented artist, keep it up
🤝 appreciate it. It was a fun one to make
What he said.
Very well done, and oh what I would give for a copy of the painting! Sounds like you folks appreciate Coach Leach as much as I do. Sure do miss him. #hailstate
Thanks sir! I have prints of my artwork available at 55folks.com if interested
@55Folks im not seeing the Leach print anywhere. No longer available?
@@evergreenrider I was fortunate to get one but am wondering if they are limited edition and have sold out.
Fantastic work! Really enjoyed this.
I am so happy to find this channel, great work
🤝
Same
I watched Leach isn’t Dead yesterday
And now this & a sub
Rip Coach Leach. Endlessly entertaining, and aleays himself. Dude was a national treasure.
Great video, feels like someone that Jon Bois would cover on Pretty Good
Somebody should do an interview with Hal Mumme about Mike Leach. Hal is kind of a quiet guy, but I bet he has some great Mike Leach stories.
Stoops talks with Mumme about Leach - I think the channel was called “Sellout Crowd” or something
Damn good video. Loved it.
Sword Swung…Hail State!!! BCoE Hall of Fame Class of 2024…we miss our coach
Great channel and I am commenting to potentially contribute some fraction of a percentage toward your appeal to the algorithm, with the main goal being your success.
Haha, appreciate it!
Great channel 😊
Mike Leach one of the greatest humans ever!
way to do right by Leach. Great vid!
Being an OU fan, I've heard the story of the fake playbook for decades and it still makes me cry laughing knowing that texas fell for it evan if we lost.
Never knew about the QB named Nick though. LMFAO 😂😂😂
Great Stuff!
Just one correction, when Leach did the fake play sheet, Leach's record was 8-0.
Okay, so what is the "Hidden Video"? These are really good stories. Not into football, but still, a great tale of a man and his Life in his field.
Seems like a good guy
Miss this fucking guy, loved watching Washington state on PAC 12 Late night
I would like to nominate a couple characters for you to do a story on the first one is Ross Perot who I voted for twice the first time because I believed him the second time to scare people the other person is Sterling Hayden he was a wonderful movie actor but also a fascinating individual and a wonderful author both of his books are a pleasure to read
Awesome, thanks - Perot and that campaign year would make for a great video
Craig James really flucked himself on the deal with his son. He lost his career and has basically disappeared since that incident happened. He was a big name on espn and just poof, disappeared.
If Ted Lasso was real, Id want it to be Mike Leech
Please make the playlist in order
Thanks, it's currently ordered this way to have our best (most recent) videos featured first since the videos aren't related and we're trying to keep improving - but any more thoughts/feedback on the benefit of putting it in order would be helpful!
What leach did for football I could do for your painting skills.
ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT!! great video.
If I ever saw Craig James. I’d pull my Johnson out and listening him.
It's a shame this man's reputation was tarnished by an entitled nepo baby and an entitled espn pundit.
Just like with Trevor Bauer. ESPN and most msm is absolute trash.
why was my comment deleted?
Huh maybe some youtube autofilter or something I don't see anything on our end
@@55Folks TH-cam is weird sometimes lol, I was trying to say before that I was blown away by the quality. If you're unaware Jacksfilms has a series where he watches the first couple minutes of videos that other creators submit to him. He provides constructive feedback and more importantly, since y'alls quality is fantastic already, it will be exposed to a large TH-cam/twitch audience. I'm gonna be here for all 55 and I'm hoping as many others as possible get to watch these highly entertaining videos! :)
Appreciate it 🤝 Yeah hopefully by 55 there will be a few hits and a few more people here haha. I’ll have to check him out that sounds like a good idea for a series
Greg or Craig James should be ashamed....
6:34
I really enjoyed this. I've been a fan of Coach Leach since I first saw that Air Raid offense in Columbus Ohio in 2002. Coaching doesn't have enough guys like him for him to be gone...
Great story. I had barely heard of Mike Leach, but he DEFINITELY sounds like a man I would want to have a beer with.
I'm not a football guy, but I loved this story. RIP Coach.
I remember this story from the original source. Y’all did a great job sharing it here. As a Tech graduate living in South Austin for 30 years I say it’s a damn shame the games are coming to an end. Swing your sword, Coach!
What an amazing painting 👏 👏
Reminds me of my Dad. God rest their souls.
I’ve worked with Rooster M. For years. Guys a nut. Will come to our yard and drink all our beer then leave. He’s hilarious.
incredibly well done my guys....
Appreciate it 🤝
I enjoyed the heck out of this...watching the painter while listening is a fantastic treat. Thank you
Mike Leach was always entertaining, I enjoyed interviews he did.
Hook'em!! But Mike Leach was one of the best, & my favorite coach.
RiP OOO G Coach Mike Leach 🙏
How can I get that painting in video
GREAT JOB!!!! LOVED HIM!!!
Thank you so much for this video! I miss coach Leach so much. So many things I hadn’t heard before. What a national treasure he was. Always envied his approach to football and life. Going against the grain with his own purpose.
That was as Awesome as I have listened to…what a genuine gentleman…RIP COACH🙏🙏🙏
“They always say never meet your heros, but he wasn’t my hero when I met him”
Just found this in 2024. Great job.
Great storytelling
this video rocks
YES! Let's go! ❤🎉
Shoot, what's the other channel this guy runs? Similar topics, I just can't remember the name of the channel or the videos from it.
I have a channel called Styrofoam Bonfire but I've only made a couple videos on it so that's probably not what you're thinking of
Your channel is incredible man. I have loved every video so far.
Appreciate it!
