I think Leach better start looking for a DC.Quote:

Will Cohen match it?
At this point I don’t think it matters. If he is interviewing at this many schools, it ain’t about the money...Quote:

What's Mason doing? Maybe he'd like to be a DC again.
I'd take him too.Quote:

Anyone who shops themselves around like he is after their first year as a DC is as good as gone the next time their stock is ever on the rise. I get that it must be a thrill to realize that one's earning potential is entering absurdity and want to strike while the iron is hot, but I can't recall any coach publicly selling his services like this since Dern. At a certain point it becomes a show of disrespect to your current employer, supporters, and kids who depend on your guidance.
Missed that. Damn.Quote:

it would be Poetic Justice to take Tulsa's DC if it comes to that ... I used to kind of pull for them but after that hissy fit of a game from them I wouldn't mind making them tear up and cry againQuote:

I'll be surprised if he goes to LSU. Coach O wants to run a pro style 4-3 defense because that is what he tells recruits. Arnett has shown what his system can do with solid talent, I'm not sure why O would screw it up, but I'm not sure he could help himself.
Kevin Steele would be my first call if Arnett leaves.
That was my first thought as I was reading through this thread.Quote:

I think Tennessee got him.Quote:

That or he has a great agent that schools want to maintain a good relationship with. I think he’s a star in the making but he’s go the Joe Brady effect going on right without the championship ring
Also add that yes I’d call Steele ASAP and tell him we are interested if Arnett leaves. I’m sure he’d love to stick it to Auburn every year
That marriage might not last long.Quote:

There are way more programs than DC's that are highly sought-after.Quote:

He's gone if they pay him. There's not a question whatsoever about it. LSU struck out on a couple guys and he's it now barring a money issue.
Should be a warning sign when so many DC?s are passing on a gig with LSU. But maybe he wants to toss the dice.Quote:

If they offer he will get filthy rich and have top end talent so even if in 2 years if he hates it there he will be able to anywhere he wants if they perform on the field. Let’s not forget he just saw how LSU poached two key recruits last minute. If he didn’t know before the difference between the has and the has nots, he knows now.
