Fox & Hound is a bar and grill nestled in the north Mississippi town of Southaven. There is nothing spectacular about it. It’s got a pool table or two, some dart boards and serves burgers, wings and buckets of cold beer.

It’s where Mike Leach convinced Zach Arnett to join his staff at Mississippi State. In a most Leach move, the coach hired Arnett during a more than three-hour phone call at a bar.
