This week on Inside the Headset, we are honoring the life and legacy of Coach Mike Leach with his general session from the 2009 convention. Coach Leach was a pioneer in the game and the AFCA and the coaching community are better because of his impact. One of the masterminds of the air raid offense and a pioneer for the coaching profession, Coach Leach’s impact helped inspire a change in college football offense and spurred on a new generation of coaches. Coach Leach’s coaching tree spreads across the majority of Power 5 football as well as into the NFL with notable coaches such as Lincoln Riley, Dave Aranda, Dana Holgorsen, Sonny Dykes, Kliff Kingsbury, and Josh Heupel. 2:35 Coaching path 14:00 Time with Hal Mumme 18:20 Coaching points 27:00 One game a week 33:00 Team roles/Energy to play 34:20 Control what you can control 35:45 You’re either coaching it, or allowing it to happen 39:40 Swing your sword 42:55 Conclusion
