    Could Cohen be pulling off a Grand Slam?

    Some chatter that we?re are going to hire a current head coach and not a coordinator. The thinking is with the team we have returning, we don?t need a guy with a possible learning curve as the head of the program.

    Now then based on hearing that- I?ll throw this out simply as a guess by me:

    Chad Morris as the HC
    Todd Grantham staying on as DC and Assoc HC- with a big raise

    Would be a Grand Slam if Cohen pulled that off.

    Probably OK. But I'd lean toward Moorehead/Grantham.

    Actually, might be which ever HC would keep Grantham on. That would be good for us and highly irritate Mullen, which at the moment is a very good thing.

    I would be happy. Certainly whoever we hire will be better off with Grantham on the team. Will be interesting....

    Not to tip where i work but several of the big cats are State guys and they said that Grantham is hanging around Starkville because he is the possible DC and Cohen might be making it part of the deal with the new HC. Also Mullen has offered him the job but allowing him time to see what State does. I don't know if they were speculating or heard something,

    That would be the best of all worlds, he can get here fast, Defensive staff says intact. We may actually upgrade.

    Honestly don't want Morris.

    Now Moorhead + Grantham, now that is something to get behind.

    Some will try and hold Chad Morris's record at SMU against him. No one can win consistently there though, and they are bowl eligible this year after he inherited a team that finished with a 1-11 record the year prior to him going there. I'm not sure why he chose that job other than he's from Texas.

    That would be great news, and I agree! Pay the Man (Grantham). Ole Dan would have to be lookng for a DC. .............Gonzo and Hev could do that while they are out on their extended recruiting visits.***

    Yeah keep grantham and sign me up jack, 14-22 record at SMU is a bit concerning but they were awful before he took the job there. 2-10 his first year to 7-5 now. We would be hellacious on offense and Grantham staying for our D this is prolly the best move I've seen being considered.
