Mike Leach will be successful at Mississippi State because you have to do something different in the SEC

I always thought, like, at Mississippi State, Ole Miss, you have to do something different. Because, like, you're not just going to line up and beat Alabama or LSU. Like, you're just not going to have the talent there. So I think it's a good fit.

Leach had relative success at Mississippi State, including a 9-win season in 2022, before his untimely passing. His 'different' style did lead to notable upsets.

I tried to break my own hand with a hammer to get a medical redshirt at East Carolina

I grab a bottle of Jack Daniels and I grab a hammer... I take a pull of Jack Daniels, put my hand down on the table and boom, boom, boom. One, two, three. Hit the hell out of my hand, dude... I couldn't break my own hand. But when I told the guys, I was like, what would you do for more football? Because I'd do damn near anything.

Minshew has told this story consistently in multiple interviews; while extreme, it is a verifiable personal claim.

My dad and I would walk out as the winners in a cage match against any other father-son duo in the NFL

I'd like to see me and my dad in a cage match versus anybody, any other father-son duo. And, you know, I think we'd stand out, you know, we'd walk out, and then afterwards there's no telling who would come up to us or come on to us. It'd be fun.

This is a hypothetical claim that cannot be verified without an actual cage match.
