Mike Leach Struggles with Mask Protocol during State Capital Visit

At this point, the fate of the upcoming college football season is very much in doubt.

Even if we do see some action, the form it will take is anyone's guess.

However, this grim reality isn't harshing the mellow of newly minted Mississippi State head coach and noted cargo shorts enthusiast Mike Leach.

Our favorite uncle joined seemingly every single university-level coach in Mississippi at the state capital in Jackson recently to echo the growing chorus of voices trying to remove any and all traces of the Confederacy from the state flag.

 

As we mentioned, there were an awful lot of coaches in the building.

 

But not one of these hard-working leaders of student-athletes know how to party quite like Uncle Mike, a fact he went out of his way to prove, almost as if on a dare.

While Leach didn't actually catch a bullet to the shoulder, he did manage to wear his protective mask incorrectly, something that became painfully apparent during the group photo:

 

Indeed, the only exposed nose in the shot belonged to Uncle Mike.

Please enjoy this damning close-up:

 

Of course, this isn't terribly surprising.

And neither is the following horseplay with brand new Ole Miss head coach Lane Kiffin:

 

Luckily, the one-time hostage at FAU was able to flee before Leach further endangered the short- and long-term health of everyone in attendance and their families.

 

Sources claim that Leach later patted Kiffin's head condescendingly and addressed him as champ, but these reports remain unconfirmed.

The only remaining drama from this episode is how Uncle Mike will correlate his Area 51 conspiracy theories with the current BLM movement.

 

Probably.
