The Early Years: Hal Mumme & Mike Leach Together In Iowa

[rucker4]

Have to share this article from a few years back. It's about the creating of the original Air Raid of Hal Mumme and assistant Mike Leach when they were together for 3 years at Iowa Wesleyan in Mt. Pleasant, IA .

They had a WR on their team at Wesleyan named Dana Holgorsen.......yes, that Dana.

Great read because you get an insight at the life of coaches at the small college level from over 30 years ago.

Interesting read; thanks for sharing. A touch of irony that Mumme now lives and coaches in the town to which Mike Leach has just been airlifted.
