Little Brother promoted DC to permanent HC

[Tater]

They can't stop copying us. Confirmed Golding is their new HC.

[FISHDAWG]

I assume this is only interim?

[smootness]

I assume this is only interim?

Looks to be permanent

[Coursesuper]

I just knew they would panic and fold.

[FISHDAWG]

I hope they hire a defensive guy for head coach

[Tater]

Not sure why tweet aint loading but On3 says permanent.

[Santiago]

I STAND WITH LUKE......eh... I mean PETE GOLDING ***

[msstate7]

Looks to be permanent

This makes me think the rumor on players could be true. They are in panic mode to keep their team and as much staff as possible in place. This was a mistake imo

[msstate7]

I expect them to name an offensive assistant as OC any minute now.

[Santiago]

Give it to Carter.... He is playing chess....hired DC Pete before Penn State, Wyoming, or anyone else could swoop in and take him ***

DC Pete is gonna kill it.

[EdwardDrayton]

It's now a full on come apart!!

[Santiago]

Ole Miss reported to offer the offensive staff double their salaries to stay at ole miss. I assume Pete took a low pay to just get the job.

BUT I will say, honestly, damn good job AD Carter. We needed that leadership after Mullen left here.
Need now too - should have hired double salary to all personnel while Lebby learned on the freaking job for 2 years.

[Coursesuper]

Even though I think they may have panicked here, they didn’t 17 around. They made a decision and went with it.

[msstate7]

OM is doing all they can to make sure the home playoff game goes as scheduled, but I don't think this is a good plan with an eye to the future.

[Santiago]

Leach passes away we panic, promote inexperienced DC. Then let him fire half the staff.
Ole Miss promotes DC, and doubles the pay of offensive staff to keep continuity.

It may fall flat on them in a year, but they went all in, and kept their boosters fired up doing it. Checked all boxes.

[basedog]

Well yeah, Stevie Wonder saw this a month ago. LOL

[EdwardDrayton]

Even though I think they may have panicked here, they didn’t 17 around. They made a decision and went with it.

Their choices were getting more limited fast.

The question is how many of the offensive staff can they keep?

"Remaining continuity" is like being diagnosed with a fatal disease. Has any pro or college team succeeded when they use this term in the hiring process? Sean Payton made the saints, not the staff. Mike leach made state, not the staff. Lane made OM, not the staff.

[BuckyIsAB****]

Theyre In trouble. But still prolly not as much trouble as we are with Keenum and Selmon

[chef dixon]

What a terrible move by them. Love to see it

[Bothrops]

I don't either. They are going to get a taste of what we've been though. I don't care what their NIL boosters come up with.

[Thick]

Even though I think they may have panicked here, they didn’t 17 around. They made a decision and went with it.

Guys, they don?t have any options. They had to make this move due to hosting a playoff game on 12/19 or 12/20. They?re just praying that they can hold it together.

[Tater]

Charlie Weis Jr. is going to be LSU OC. LSU also keeping Baker as DC. That's their dream scenario. Them cajuns are gonna be hell.

[Todd4State]

And I'm pretty sure Judge went to LSU too. I haven't heard about anyone else though. I know that Kiffin is keeping Frank Wilson but not sure what position group he would coach. Probably running backs?

[Coursesuper]

That is definitely a good point. With an interim they may get left out.

[CaptainObvious]

Yep. Selmon still playing checkers with football while Carter plays chess! They know they can at least stand pat with the current staff sans Kiffin. Meanwhile, 2 days later and Lebby?s staff is still intact! 😔😔😔

Were they able to keep any of the offensive staff? Pretty sure the key guys left..

[Coursesuper]

Problem with that is they aren’t going to keep the current staff sans Lane, some have already left.

Lol, go drunk, you're home.

[chef dixon]

Absolutely no reason to make it permanent right now. Could have easily named him interim, explore options, audition in the playoff and then hire him later

[Coursesuper]

Lol, go drunk, you're home.

HA!

[CaptainObvious]

As long as we have Lebby and ?The Hustler?, they will still be ahead of State.

[Cowbell]

OM is doing all they can to make sure the home playoff game goes as scheduled, but I don't think this is a good plan with an eye to the future.

Carter is an idiot for not just letting Kiffin coach the playoff.

[Todd4State]

It sounds to me like McCready is saying the offensive staff is staying but I'm not sure if that's through the playoffs or permanent?

[CadaverDawg]

Weis is gone, Judge staying for now at least

[Coursesuper]

Weis already named OC in tigerland.

Kiffin was the offensive staff. Without him it doesnt matter who stays.
This was a horrible decision and a panic move. Cant change identities this drastically this quickly and expect similar results. Going to set the behind us, now Lebby needs to capitalize.

[parabrave]

Give it to Carter.... He is playing chess....hired DC Pete before Penn State, Wyoming, or anyone else could swoop in and take him ***

No he shouldve told Kiffen to put up last week so he could go get a good candidate,

[msstate7]

Weis is gone, Judge staying for now at least

He's probably gonna be their OC. Makes no sense to stay on unless it's a promotion

[EdwardDrayton]

Little brother?!? More like our third cousin on the sketchy side of the fam.

[EdwardDrayton]

Yup

[EdwardDrayton]

Wow. They were poised with their finger on the trigger, just waiting.

[Activated Alpha]

Not going to lie, kind of jealous LSU can buy off BK and then snake LK away from OM and FL plus pony up $25 mil for NIL.

So let me understand; OM does it and it is the greatest move ever. We do it and everyone says we are slow, stupid and a loser?

Let's be real. Even their fanbase doesn't believe that shit, much less anybody else.

[archdog]

I would take Arnett back today as DC, but rushing him into being a head coach was a mistake. I feel OM is making the same mistake.

[Maroon Glasses]

I really don't think their plan is to keep Golding as HC. Maybe they do, but I think it's just to
A) Keep the team together as much as possible.
B) I think it's a ploy toward the playoffs committee. It "looks" better to have a "permanent" HC instead of an interim.

I could be wrong. I haven't seen anything contract wise between them. If they come out with a 3 year contract then of course I'd be wrong. But I'm gonna say they don't do a 2 or 3 year deal with him.

They're saying it's permanent. They panicked. We'll see how long he lasts there.

[Todd4State]

And they were planning on keeping the offensive staff. Half of them went with Kiffin. And I have to think that if Judge can get a head coaching job somewhere like Tulane he is going to take it too.

I wonder why they went with Golding instead of Judge? I figured he was gone after I seen Golding got the gig.

[Todd4State]

I don't know.

I think Judge wants to coach at MSU one day. If they lost him to us their egos would be like today. Plus Judge probably knew that if he took their job he might not be able to come here because we have some fans that might not like it too.

[parabrave]

Maybe he isn't ready for an SEC job esp having to replicate the Success of LK. Heck better to be Bob Tyler than Bruiser Kinnard.
