He is probably getting better and was provided significant help this year with analysts but he should have never gotten the job to begin with. And beyond his coaching the biggest issue is that he is unable to attract any real difference makers out of the portal or get any big time defensive recruits out of HS. Lockhart from Tupelo is the only good defensive recruit I can think of we've gotten while he has been here but one isn't going to cut it. Our staff in general just isn't on par with even the mid-level SEC teams. We had good enough players to have won at least 7 games this season.Quote:

We got some depth and 1 real difference maker. Who would have made the entire line more explosive. Did we need more? Absolutely but most of that was a function of our NIL budget.Quote:

I mean our NIL budget was significantly increased last year. Seriously, make excuses all you want for Hutzler but he couldn't have gotten a DC job anywhere else in the SEC and that's just a fact. I was shocked and disappointed when Lebby hired him. Coaching at Alabama where players flow in by the truckload is not the same as coaching at State and is really not the same as coaching at most places.Quote:

Our budget was increased, still was the bottom third of the league and it showed as the season went on. Lack of SEC depth showed its self. A couple of injuries significantly impacted the team. Look I'm more than fine bringing in another DC. Heck I questioned pairing a rookie HC with a rookie DC when we hired him. Just I'm not going to say he didn't bring in some players and I'm not going to be naive and say another DC would have done much more with our budget. Especially on the DL where we had the biggest issue.Quote:

Nothing has really changed in the last 14 hours. I was told last night that Selmon and Lebby met for a couple of hours after the game to go over things and will meet again either today or tomorrow to further discuss the plan moving forward.Quote:

Now do I think that will happen, no. I have pretty good sourcing when it comes to Dan and I do not see him moving until Cannon graduates. There may be a world where he could play at a prep school for a year or two, I know this was discussed when he was at Lake Oconee. I know a lot of people have pointed to the money thing at UNLV, but if they truly were in a bind they could get him paid. They would probably have to call Lorenzo or Frank Fertitta but that would get it done in about 10 seconds.
His play calling is not the issue. You are correct. The problem is, and it has even become evident to him, is that he still is operating like an OC. He is missing stuff in prep and in game that is costing us games.Quote:
