Inexcusably bad. That can't ever happen again. Move the damn ball and stop taking up the whole clock to do it.
Yes. He was with Hud but just left for "personal reasons". But he has coached DB's and he knows the state of Mississippi very well. He has coached with Orgeron as well. Very good recruiter.Quote:

I would too honestly.... I would hope they make Collins LB coach since he already is anyway and let Ogre be DC... If it is David Turner that is leaving i think the Ogre has been a DL coach before. I dont think collins would go for just LB coach though, somebody else would offer him the DC job i bet. If that happens we can find an LB coach. Like Todd said David Saunders could coach it, or who ever we could get that is worth getting.Quote:

It could be that if the rumors are true that it's Deshea and Turner that are leaving. It sounds like Deshea wants to go to the NFL and Dan wants Coach O. Coach O has coached D-line and LB's as far as I know. That means that the only options are Turner and Geoff. Collins has one more year on his contract, so more than likely it's Turner that has his head on the chopping block. Again, this is just rumor and speculation.Quote:

Geoff- Co-DC/LB
Hughes- Recruiting/maybe something like OLB or S
Saunders- DB's.
The biggest thing I'd like to see is us move Sallach and hire James Shibest as the TE/ST coach. That would be a HUGE upgrade in terms of coaching and recruiting. If that hire is made, the only weak recruiter would be Hevesey. We can just give him the Golden Triangle as his recruiting area- he's not bad enough to run off kids from Starkville or West Point. Let the pros handle everything else.
That would be awesome, but I doubt he does it. We would own JPS in recruiting.Quote:

Coach O would be fantastic. I'll bet we would see a vast improvement in recruiting. Also wouldn't mind getting Manny Diaz back if possible. We don't need any more lackluster performances on defense like we saw in the Ole Miss game.
Considering that he is at La Tech, he would probably be happy to come back. I'm not sure how he and Dan would get along.Quote:

Seasons like this in the state of Mississippi do not happen often. These attitudes can't help with recruiting either.
Did someone leave the trash out? We have a bear amongst us.Quote:
