Someone in the replies saying that this is basically a fake reporter who is paying for the blue checkmark. So may be made up. Hopefully.

His story doesn't make sense, every other source I've seen is reporting heart attack, and he is saying stroke.

In cardiac arrest, the loss of blood flow to the brain is the biggest threat to life. The brain injury that is being referred to is not due to embolic stroke, but due to the prolonged loss of adequate blood flow from the heart. The rest of the body can remain alive, but the brain injury is what makes it unsurvivable.
 
"Sid Salter, chief communication officer at Mississippi State, told WLBT that any rumors suggesting the death of Leach "should be ignored."

"Coach Leach is a fighter, and he is battling," Salter told the TV station."

Fake or not, he should not be posting that before it is made official.

What an asshole.

It's probably made up to get clicks, so it won't be made official. All indications point to heart attack.rather than stroke.

But yeah, even if that is the case still an asshole.
 
If that is fake this person should be publicly disembowed

My blurry vision initially read that as "to get chicks" :eek2: Fawn Liebowitz, God rest her soul.
 
247sports update:

I wish I had better news, but I’m told UMMC has transitioned into comfort care measures for Coach Mike Leach. It’s essentially hospice care at this point.

I’m told he’s been largely if not totally nonresponsive since the cardiac event yesterday morning.

It appears to simply be a matter of time now. It all seems so unfair. Life is fleeting. Tell those you love who much you love them. Forgive, forgive, forgive.

We will not be working to break the final story. We will respect the family’s timing on all of that. Yes, we have a story ready to roll, but we will now await the official and unfortunate word from the University.

I can’t believe we’re even having these discussions. It’s so surreal. He isn’t just our football coach. He’s Mike Leach, a national treasure. I’m honored to say he was our coach for three seasons. It’s also nice to remember that he’s going out a winner.

Please remember his family, our coaches and players in your thoughts and prayers.

I love you all and Hail State!"

Looking at the coaching timeline, I defiantly forgot he missed two whole seasons between TT and Wash. State, in my head cannon he went right from one to the other. Craig James robbed the nation of two years worth of quotes/memes.
