I?m lazy and don?t want to try reading through 35 pages across 3 threads, so can someone post a list of the alleged staff coming with Arnett and what positions they?ll be coaching? It?d be nice to have a separate staff thread for quick reference for everyone anyway.
Also, what?s the word on Big Pern? Can we not bring him home?

Have heard possibly Matt Brock and hopefully Jett Johnson, both were on Mora's staff at UCONN

This is going to take a few days to shake out. The first page of the coaching tracker thread has as much as we know.

So, do we now rush to put a staff together on D for bowl game or take time and let ZA get people he wants? Also how many more #s are going to opt for transfer (depleted roster) and will Whitson be able to return for the bowl game?

I wonder how this defense will look with Arnette running it instead of Hutzler. Can’t be any worse.
I would hope we take our time and let Arnette get who he wants.

Well interestingly enough when Arnett was here under Leach the rest of the staff was Leach guys and Tony Hughes. When he was at UNLV it was all Barry Odom guys and Dan's friend Paul Guenther.
There's a lot of rumors about Brock coming back and we definitely will be getting a new DL coach but I wouldn't be shocked if a lot of guys are staying like Dancey, Barnes, and Bell.

Are they going to let Arnett have a say in his asst. coaches?

I can't for the life of me figure out why Bell is still on staff. I seen where someone said Kelly might stay if he stays on staff.. that's not even worth it imo. Kelly is as lock down as they come but #4 and others might as well not even run with the receivers. You have a better chance of the qb overthrowing or the receiver dropping it than you do them defending a pass.
Please for the love of all things holy get rid of Corey Bell. Unless I'm missing something.
I am not convinced Bell will be retained.
Patrick Surtain was at FSU under Tony White and with Arnett this year. I wonder if they will kick the tires there.

You're right.. didn't even think about that! I'd be all for it.. recruiting definitely wasn't a problem for him. I'd kick the tires and give him a free windshield wash while I was at it.
I?m a doctor in the area. I can make sure everyone but Arnett gets taken care of.

It?s very refreshing to know that the Hippocratic Oath rings true to your morals, ethics, and values. Probably should have kept that ?doctor thing? to yourself!!!

It was a joke. A play on my significant displeasure that we are bringing him back.

The people that I've seen that are the most anti arnett are those who were huge leach guys. Not guys who, like me, just thought leach did a good job here. But guys who were very pro leach.
The irony there is that leach himself was a big arnett guy.

I wasn't pro Leach and I still think Zach Arnett is a literal piece of dog shit.

Arnett as a HC is. Arnett the DC isn't bad. He's not some elite DC like some want you to believe, but he'll field a top 60 defense and we'll be really aggressive.

Explain why he is a piece of dogshit.

I was very pro-Leach, but I don't hate this hire. I do hate what he did to the program as HC, but I temper that a little bit because I believe part of that was pressure from above by part of our anti-Leach faction. Regardless, he's solid as a DC. I would have preferred others, but this isnt a bad hire.

You can temper it, but the fact is, he did it.
