Now they're saying Bryan Ellis of Georgia Southern is the name to keep an eye on & we haven't reached out to Hatcher or Johns at all. 🤷

Another what we're hearing from tattoo man to get the natives going nuts again. It gets him clicks. Otherwise, is just gas on a fire.
At least with Brandon Walker you know it's all about him. 247 likes to try to act like they have State's best interest in mind all the while toeing the line between believable and down right lies. The fact people pay for "their services" blows my mind. If you're gonna be tabloid, go the Barstool route.
People need to stop listening to Steve Robertson.
He's connected, but he takes information and then magnifies it by 100x, and then posts it.
The whole Briles situation literally happens on that board multiple times a year. Hell get everyone's hopes up just to get clicks.
Y'all are right about things being tight lipped btw. Wanna know why Paul Jones isn't saying anything? Because he doesn't know because people aren't talking, but he's got enough self respect not to make shit up
I'm gonna go out on a limb & say Briles never was as serious a candidate as 24/7 had them believe. Sure they probably talked to him, but looking back I'm not sure it really ever got further than that like Steve left them to believe. I could be way off, but I don't think he had contract in hand ready to sign yada yada & them said no at the last minute to stay in an upcoming dumpster fire situation that Arkansas seems headed towards.
THIS!! He's well-spoken when interviewed by Finebaum, but he's totally embarrassing to look at because of his personal appearance. I know that shouldn't make a difference, but I'm old enough and been around long enough to state that it DOES make a difference with folks of the baby-boomer generation.
I have never been more disgusted with Steve than after he let information out about CMLs medical situation that from my knowledge he was not given permission to give out. And then he somehow made CMLs death about him.
I don't listen to SR much and didn't have much against him until this. As soon as he said he knows a lot more than the average fan and already had the story written of the health emergency of his "best friend" Mike Leach. (Before he had passed) I was done. What a clown pos to try to get clicks off the pirate's passing.
We'll see who we hire- but I know 100% Arnett wants an OC that is not going to throw it 50 times a Saturday.
Too many speculating right now that dont know. Obviously Briles would have been great and anybody who knows some football has to like what Heup is doing at Tenn from a scheme standpoint. He's putting together a pretty good staff so far but OC is the key.
Yep it's obvious from going after friend and briles that ZA wants to be able to run the ball. Ark and auburn ran it better against us than anybody.
Only if CZA wants him to be the OC
"ZA was about to hire Mike bobo if it wasn?t for this board."
"Yeah and the irony is that if as fans we didn?t complain, we would have Mike Bobo as OC right now. So you?re welcome, I guess"
These are just two examples of what some people on 247 actually believe happened with Bobo. The mods need to work on their communication skills a little better bc surely this isn't what they wanted to lead them to believe over there? You can't get anymore delusional than this.
This whole process has been embarrassing for some certain "insiders".
They don't know what's going on
One insider stated this morning ZA was already on a plane headed to the coaches convention in Charlotte to start interviewing candidates. About 2 hours later another insider spotted him & a few other coaches at the girls basketball game. I think it's safe to say that some insiders are getting feed loads of BS. May be purposely. I don't know.
This is like the time Gene posted that Fant would start at Oregon and that he was leaving on the university jet just after 5:00 on Friday. I posted that I had just passed the MSU aircraft operations at the Starkville airport on the way home from work and that the place was locked up and nobody was there. Gene then responded they were leaving from GTR. LOL! By the way, we all know Fant did not play that day.
There are 3 actual insiders on 247 that I know of that are as knowledgeable as you can be on this coaching search, and most things dealing with MSU athletics. Two more with some knowledge on the search. I was on there for a few minutes yesterday and the best post I saw was something to the effect that CZA would have a lot easier job of hiring a coach if 247 (GP) wouldn't post all these updates on what we know.
There is a whole click over there than believes that their complaints are heard and the school falls in line and listens.
They are also the main reason that board is unreadable and not worth paying for.
None of them are knowledgeable about this coaching search. Arnett isn't letting info out. Paul and Robbie aren't saying anything because they don't know. Steve is putting info out there, but it's all over the place and incorrect half the time. He's causing unnecessary chaos over there by leading people down all these rabbit trails when he could just come out and say "Guys, I honestly have no clue."
Idk if Dave Murray is one of the ones you're talking about, but he knows absolutely nothing. Except how to write unreadable articles.
As knowledgeable as can be in the search, due to CZA keeping close to the vest, not that the three knew everything about the search. I was referring to members not mods. I am well aware of what Steve does. Like I said I know one member who has better sources than Steve does.
