Seems that Will Friend will be hired as the OC coach.
Everyone at 247 is that way. They manage to stay one step below the crap Barstool puts out. I don't trust anything those guys say. They are notorious for saying stuff that isn't factual then pull the, "things changed at the last minute." The only bright side is they managed to get all of those morons under one roof instead of across multiple websites.Quote:

Seems to me the "good ole boys" are running the show and CZA is bending over and spreading it for them. What OC wants to come to a place where 100% of his staff is picked? But CZA and the boosters don't seem to care. Makes you terrified of what they expect to hire. if it's a "familiar name" as was mentioned earlier it's no doubt another good ole boy hire and not who's best for the program.
I'm off Arnett, regardless of who the OC is. The fact he let Hollinghead and Miller get downgraded and BoBo is a name at all = he is in over his head/is paying back the boosters that got him to be HC by letting them pick the staff. I'll watch the games but if we don't win 8+ my opinion of Arnett won't change. What a *****
"Will Friend, a veteran SEC coach and heralded recruiter, has been hired to Mississippi State's football staff at a position to be named later, head coach Zach Arnett announced Friday."
Friend can recruit a little
So can Miller. Does this mean Friend or Miller will be the OC? God help us if so. If it means we've replaced Miller with Friend, God help us still. Terrible moveQuote:

I can't believe Miller wouldn't be retained at some capacityQuote:

Then he's the OC or OL coach and Friend is the OC. Can't have 2 Ol coaches on staff.Quote:

You cannot possibly disagree that these are Good Ole Boy hires, can you? Replace 2 good coaches with 2 guys with MS ties, and bring back a analyst that used to work here. Arnett has never met these people- the boosters have. Who is calling the shots here?
Even if you disagree that the boosters are running the show, why the hell is Bobos name brought up at all? Whether we hire him or not, the fact he's been names is a red flag for whoever is calling the shots.
I've lost a lot of confidence in Zach Arnett. Not as much as I've lost in Mark Keenum though. Just sloppy as hell.
No apology needed...Everything is cool........... other than our OC search unless something changes.Quote:

As good or better than our previous coach in the position?Quote:

Yet, some on here are throwing CZA under the bus and saying you?re ready to pull funding and this is a shit show. Y?all are some dumbasses.
I was wondering about that too. We lost Britton to Auburn.Quote:

Also curious about his recruiting, so apropos.Quote:
