“Mike was a giving and attentive husband, father and grandfather,” a statement released by the family through the university said. “He was able to participate in organ donation at UMMC as a final act of charity. We are supported and uplifted by the outpouring of love and prayers from family, friends, Mississippi State University, the hospital staff, and football fans around the world. Thank you for sharing in the joy of our beloved husband and father’s life.”

Leach revolutionized college football through his prolific Air Raid offenses and was 158-107 in 21 seasons as a head coach at Texas Tech, Washington State and Mississippi State.
