Foo Fact of the Game:

College football was better for having Mike Leach

Fri, 12/23/2022 - 00:00

Although this may not pertain to our area of local sports or even our great state of Louisiana, college football fans around the country were shocked at the sudden passing of Mississippi State University Head Football Coach Mike Leach a week ago. Not caring much for the NFL myself besides a few members of the Cincinnati Bengals to be exact (you can go ahead and guess who those are). And the “Pride of Jennings” Travis Etienne Jr. and his upstart Jaguars, I am a college football die-hard. Of course I bleed two colors, and two colors only ... purple and gold, my appreciation for the game of college football extends way further than just the beautiful sites of Death Valley on a Saturday night.
