I hope it's minor and best of luck to him and his family. I always thought he didn't look or sound healthy this year.

Hope you get to feeling better Coach. I’ve been skeptical of the health issue rumors, but guess they have legs.

There’s just no way anyone can confidently say Leach will be our coach for very much longer.

Yes, the report says they have put Arnett in charge for the time being and will release no more info. Thats per Sid Salter Twitter feed

UMMC they said. Surely if it was heart attack St Doms would be the destination. I hope it's not nearly as serious as we are imagining

I’ve gained a new level of admiration for him to be able to coach a P5 program while fighting something this serious.

To hell with football at this point…. I hope he makes it to the Keys to recover, if it comes to that.

Heart attacks and strokes are almost always a surprise event. I doubt he was fighting anything unless we find out something different.

Prayers for coach leach. If he has had pneumonia as we've heard, that in itself can lead to a heart attack. I hope the heck that's not the case.

Steve said weather played a factor in not being airlifted
The UMC helicopter out of Lowndes was landing at the Starkville airport in fairly heavy rain earlier. It appears they had to call the flight off and send him by ground. I would imagine the flight crew was dropped off at the hospital and went with the ground crew but can’t confirm.

It's gonna be a long evening for us fans waiting for news. I hope we find out it was more precautionary and he is just fine and dandy.

Prayers up for Leach. Pirates are tough bastards. Hope nothing too bad and he has a speedy recovery.
