Someone mentioned arnett bringing rocky long here for the DC. I like this idea. Long has been a HC before, and he taught arnett.

They dont. Arnett and the defensive coaches will keep rolling on as usual.

Most of his problem is he has no QB and Sean Payton isn't there anymore. There are no receivers and the only weapon they have is Kamara. The Saints offensive personnel package is the worst since Bobby Douglas replace Billy Kilmer. Sean saw the future and got out when he could.

Good decision, based on the Arnette family loves Starkville, his defense saved our ass several times over the past 3 years, he knows the SEC, we need to keep the players and recruits happy right now. No complaints here.

The new AD will have an easy transition, and should really focus on NIL, improving game day experiences, and getting ass in seats for our basketball programs! Tip of the hat to Dr. Keenum and company.

Let's get behind Zack, the players and staff and support the heck out of them!

Feel EXACTLY the same.

He already knows everyone in the building and the recruiting landscape in the SEC so he will be able to hit the ground running. He’s actually less of a gamble than anyone else we could have gotten this late. It was the smart move and also the right move.

Yep, 100% spot on. I don't understand why some people don't get this is a no brainer. It is the best option at this time.

I feel the same about you man. This was gonna happen for him sooner or later. I like him a lot. In my opinion he improved a lot this year bc he started coaching safeties and realized the bind he was putting them in the first 2 years. Its hard to see a lot of small things when you look at everything. On paper what he was asking them to do would work, on the field is another.

He is a great dude. Kids on offense and defense love him. And he has a good relationship with Will. I dont think there was a wrong way to handle this bc it is absolutely tragic and never happened before. People need to keep that in mind.

Chris olave is on pace to be the 9th best rookie wr in yards in nfl history. If he maintains this pace, he will pass Michael Thomas in week 17. Thomas had brees; olave has had Winston and Dalton.

Olave missed a game with a concussion, so it will be 16 games - apples to apples

OR, Arnett was being pursued for other head coaching positions or bigger DC jobs. So making him head coach may have been to keep him and the class here. A bit of a gamble but I'm good with giving him the chance to show out.

Bought my seats and parking pass for the bowl today. Will be there to honor The Pirate and welcome our new coach to the helm of the ship!!

Looking forward to seeing all you folks there!!

Great take and I agree. I know Leach was grooming him to become a HC somewhere it just came a little earlier than expected. I love that he's a high energy guy. Zack, the staff and the players all need our support right now and they deserve it!
