However, reports emerged that, while close friends, family, and the bulldogs’ football family still mourn the passing of their icon, some college coaches are trying to milk the situation to their advantage. 

Sudden death of Mike Leach brings out poor behavior from other coaches

A popular Mississippi state insider, Steve Robertson, highlighted what was going on in college football. Post the tragic passing of coach Mike, rival coaches look to capitalize on the moment according to him. He took to Twitter to inform the world what was going on behind the scenes. “Getting some reports of some college coaches working through third parties to try and get some Mississippi State football players to enter the transfer portal. If you’re doing this, then you are a disgusting human being. If I get evidence to support this, I will make you famous,” tweeted Robertson.

With a forced change in coaching staff for the bulldogs, other college coaches are trying to get some of the bulldogs’ players on the transfer portal. A change in coaching staff enables players to do get on the transfer list. However, other coaches using this as an opportunity to sign prime talent is just unethical and uncalled for.
