Mike Leach apologizes for 'offensive' Twitter postPosted by RLDSC FAN on 4/2/20 at 5:17 pm
quote:
Mississippi State players publicly took exception to the tweet.
An assistant professor at the university admonished the coach for the post.
Leach deleted the tweet Thursday morning.
The picture depicted an elderly woman with knitting sticks in her hands. The caption said, 'After 2 weeks of quarantine with her husband, Gertrude decided to knit him a scarf..'
The lady was not knitting a scarf, but rather a noose. The hangman's knot was already tied. Multiple Mississippi State football players and a Mississippi State University professor took exception to the tweet, which has been deleted from Leach's account.

GTF over it! I watched White Men Cant Jump 15 times. I laughed instead of saying the title was 'offensive'.

Mike
Leach is a fool. His Facebook aunt tweets are rarely funny and he has zero shot at recruiting black kids from the south.
He’s going to be an unmitigated disaster

The Woke Sports Board will have to take some time to consider accepting the apology or not.

They’ll still play for him like suckers. It amazes me that black guys sign up to play for people like leach knowing damn well he’s a trump supporter which means he’s either apathetic towards racism or flat out racist. Some black people never learn.

He’s not that smart
It doesn’t matter what the reality is, the perception is he’s a far right nutjob and he’s incapable of doing anything to dispel that. He’s going to get just trounced in recruiting and be fired within 2-3 years.

I don't think Leach's original tweet had racial intent.
That said, I'd bet good money if people start taking this guy up, some of the tweets and DM's to these players will have a racial edge.

I think these black men you reference can think for themselves and dont need your commentary on the matter.

There are a lot of idiots out there that think hangings were only done to black people.
It's been a common form of execution all throughout history. Anyone who would associate it specifically with black people is an absolute moron.

Mike Leach is, without question, the most outspoken coach in all of college football. You never know what the next thing out of his mouth is going to be. You also never know what type of content he’s going to post on social media.

The Mississippi State head coach has nearly 360,000 followers on Twitter and has posted a number of memes related to quarantine and the big cancel, but he crossed a line earlier this week.

On Wednesday, Leach tweeted a photo of an elderly woman knitting that read ‘after 2 weeks of quarantine with her husband, Gertrude decided to knit him a scarf.’ It wasn’t a scarf she was knitting, instead, it was a noose.

Again, this is the head football coach at MISSISSIPPI State we’re talking about here.

Mike Leach Tweet Image

Before Leach elected to delete the tweet and apologize for the offensive image, a number of his current players and an assistant professor at the university criticized him for posting it.

I sincerely regret if my choice of images in my tweets were found offensive. I had no intention of offending anyone.

— Mike Leach (@Coach_Leach) April 2, 2020

Last season’s team captain Erroll Thompson responded with the hand-on-the-chin, eyebrow-raised emoji while defensive lineman Fabien Lovett replied with a simple ‘WTF‘. Defensive end Kobe Jones replied to the tweet saying ‘Facts. He tripping.’ According to Inside Hook, assistant sociology professor Margaret A. Hagerman, whose Twitter account is private, tweeted at Leach saying “lynching ‘jokes’ are incredibly offensive anywhere” and “especially in Mississippi.”

Talk about a not so ideal start to Leach’s career in Starkville. The former Washington State head coach was hired by the Bulldogs on January 9.
