Mike Leach on 2027 College Football Hall of Fame Ballot
The late Mike Leach has been added to the 2027 College Football Hall of Fame ballot four years after his death. Leach was previously just short of the 60% winning percentage criteria at 59.6%, but the National Football Foundation recently lowered the criteria to 59.5%, which opened the door for Leach to be selected. Leach suddenly passed away in 2022 while actively coaching Mississippi State. The Bulldogs finished that season with nine wins, just the tenth time that they had reached that mark in program history. Considered a pioneer of the game with his Air Raid offense, one of the faces of the game is now eligible to posthumously earn college football's highest honor.
