Do we have ANY idea about his staff? Are McPhee and Chaney a real opportunity as staff additions??

Of course he wasn?t the top choice. He came back for a lot cheaper than Armstrong and with more experience. This is not the worst hire we have ever made. Underwhelming, yes, but not a bad hire.Quote:

Exactly. He is not performing high enough even at his time here to just forget about thisQuote:

Lol!! We are MS Stake.
I think theres more than 1 common denominatorQuote:

I can't keep up with the damn rules anymore. Is our money used for coaching the able to be used for NIL or do those have to be kept separate? If we saved $2M by going with Arnett then whatever. $2M more on the DL + Arnett probably better than $0 more on the DL and a hot candidate DC
^This. Players or no, I don't think many of y'all realize how bad Huntzler was. I remember the day that we hired him. I was around a Bama fan and a Reb fan. I told them I hope I'm wrong, but this is not good and will not end well. You don't hire a DC in the SEC that has never called or ran his own defense. Horrible, awful hire Huntzler was.Quote:

Let's bring Joe Moorhead back as offensive coordinator while we are at it.
No! Les Koenning! He fits MSU's culture and is blue collar.Quote:

No you were not wrong. But that's not the point I was making and you know it. The board was unreadable during that time.Quote:
