After stints at Kentucky and Oklahoma, Mike Leach took over a subpar Texas Tech program that had one of the worst graduation rates in all of major college football. A decade later, Leach had guided Tech to unprecedented on-field success and the highest graduation rate of any public university in major college football. Leach spent seven seasons as the head coach at Washington State before moving to Mississippi State in 2020. He has also served as TV analyst for CBS College Sports and host of the daily College Football Playbook show on Sirius XM. He is native of Cody, Wyoming, and graduated from Brigham Young University. He earned his J.D. from Pepperdine Law School in 1986. Leach and his wife, Sharon, have four children.
