Mike Leach is back by popular demand.

This collection is the sequel to the original Squib-Kick It to a Fat Guy... and 699 more memorable quotes from the playbook of Coach Mike Leach, which hit the (book)stores/online in the summer of 2016.

Since that time, after successfully rebuilding the Washington State football program, Leach has moved on from Pullman, Washington, to Starkville, Mississippi, as the head coach of the Mississippi State Bulldogs in the powerful Southeastern Conference.

Along the way, he has left us with a pirate's treasure of fresh quotes and observations, that, quite frankly, coupled with his Air Raid offense, make the game of college football more entertaining and enjoyable for everyone.

Volume II covers the "Best of Leach'' for the past five years, as well as dipping back into his earlier days of coaching for some classic and unique perspectives on football and life.
