Cody Leach, Son of Mike Leach, Aims to Carry on His Father's Legacy Through the Air Raid

Cody Leach was part of the way through his college career at BYU when he felt the need to make sure that football, something he hadn't been super interested in the intricacies of before, wasn't a career path he wanted to take.

The son of Air Raid guru Mike Leach contacted a friend that was working on the advertising side of the Cougars' athletic department, looking for the best way to get in touch with head coach Kalani Sitake to see what was available for a student assistant.

"I asked my buddy if he would ask his boss to ask Kalani to give me a call," Leach said. "I get these emails from BYU that they send all the students there and it's things like job listings but I didn't see anything about football, so I was wondering how to go about finding out how to do that kind of thing." mike leach gif

It wasn't long after the younger Leach's colleague followed up and Mike Leach got in touch that things were able to get going for Leach on the football field in Provo, Utah.
