Mississippi State players publicly took exception to the tweet.
An assistant professor at the university admonished the coach for the post.
Leach deleted the tweet Thursday morning.
The picture depicted an elderly woman with knitting sticks in her hands. The caption said, 'After 2 weeks of quarantine with her husband, Gertrude decided to knit him a scarf..'
The lady was not knitting a scarf, but rather a noose. The hangman's knot was already tied. Multiple Mississippi State football players and a Mississippi State University professor took exception to the tweet, which has been deleted from Leach's account.

They’ll still play for him like suckers. It amazes me that black guys sign up to play for people like leach knowing damn well he’s a trump supporter which means he’s either apathetic towards racism or flat out racist. Some black people never learn.

This noose being racist shite is retarded but Leach with all of his brilliance should be smart enough to know how idiots would react
He’s not that smart
It doesn’t matter what the reality is, the perception is he’s a far right nutjob and he’s incapable of doing anything to dispel that. He’s going to get just trounced in recruiting and be fired within 2-3 years.

I don't think Leach's original tweet had racial intent.
That said, I'd bet good money if people start taking this guy up, some of the tweets and DM's to these players will have a racial edge.

I think these black men you reference can think for themselves and dont need your commentary on the matter.

It's been a common form of execution all throughout history. Anyone who would associate it specifically with black people is an absolute moron.

Leach’s tweet had more than 4,000 likes on Thursday morning, the newspaper said. But several MSU players responded to the post with face-palm and raised-eyebrow emojis and a profane acronym, the newspaper reported. Mississippi State assistant sociology professor and author Margaret A. Hagerman chastised Leach and wrote that lynching jokes are incredibly offensive anywhere and “especially in Mississippi.”

Leach deleted the tweet sometime Thursday morning, according to the newspaper. He apologized in a post that read: “I sincerely regret if my choice of images in my tweets were found offensive. I had no intention of offending anyone.”
