I love Tony Hughes, but our defensive backfield this past year was as good as it's just about ever been in the 2000's. I hope we can hold onto the D staff as is. Was very impressed with them.
What I'm scratching my head over is the offensive guys looking at options. I thought they all came here primarily cause they wanted to work with Moorhead. Now they thinking of leaving? This isn't a good sign IMO.
That could be but in my mind if Joe wants to keep them, just tell them he needs their help to tweak offense in the ways that will make it work better in SEC. Joe has been saying he's gonna fix it ... so tell them he needs their help to do that.
Maybe they don't like Starkville tho and/or they are both getting big $$ (which may be the case with Green Bay and Saban ... both have deep pockets).
Easy fix. Hughes is here. Promote Brad Peterson. Hire Jacob Peeler for WR coach. Done.
I'd be indifferent about Tbuck - he's fine but not irreplaceable to me. Huff would be a big blow to recruiting and what makes it bad is there are probably only a handful of schools he'd leave for laterally and one of those may take him.
Getsy I guess I'm also indifferent only b/c of the way the offense performed overall.
Time to see what happens though
That’s what happens when you have lowest paid coaches in SEC...
Plus I thought JoMo took ~2 million less than we would have been paying Mullen for the express purpose of having a lot more money for assistants? But really, outside of not wanting to lose anyone now due to recruiting, is there anyone on our offensive staff that has shown themselves to be irreplaceable? After what I saw this year, maybe the offensive staff could use a shakeup. On the other hand, would love to see the defensive staff stay together and definitely don't want to lose Shoop.

RB or TE. I'd talk to Hughes and Peterson about it and decide where the best fit is.
Of course. Most coaches aren't like Dan and say that they openly want to leave. If he's home why did he go to MSU? And I think he would welcome coming to a more stable environment than where he is now and will likely be on their third OC in three years and has a much better short term future with a more passing offense than Rich Rod's.
Yea, I would be very surprised if that info was even close to accurate having us that far behind most other SEC schools and 1.5 million behind OM. As I stated earlier, Moorhead himself is making roughly 2 million less than Mullen would have this year as a HC but yet our ENTIRE assistant budget is only 3.5 million? That doesn't even make sense.
Everybody is right in this pay deal. Cohen did go cheap as hell, and our coaches are paid more than what’s being shown. At least some of them anyway.
Well, regarding OM, ya gotta remember that those assholes somehow thought McGriff was worth $1.1 Mil.... idgits...

Well at least Bama and Saban aren’t ruining the SEC.
We supposedly had a no compete in place with all of the new assistants in place to keep them from going to another SEC school for two years....whomever we get I hope they have recruiting connections in Georgia.
We didn't have a no compete w all of them. Just some.
