Timeline and Offer

If Briles doesn't accept the offer, good riddance! We want coaches that want to be here, wanna be Dawgs.

Also, rumored is KJ's NIL for 2023 is $800k.

I repeat, even if Briles does come, kj is not and was not coming w him. For various reasons. Nil being one as well.

Yep. Also, I like KJ but not $800K worth.

I think his interest was more his agent playing up us to get him a raise in his current job.

---

what about Briles though?

---

If Pittman's record next year is the same as this year, his seat will be very warm. Kiffin's and Pittman's status took a huge hit in 2022.

Why make fun of Sam Pittman? Stick to our team!

Ellis awful. Kittley was the reason that offense ran. Ellis was 115th and 91st in scoring when he was there by himself.
I have to imagine GSU?s success is more because of Helton and not Ellis.

I don't know much about him, but those stats are massive improvements from the previous season. That was their 1st season there

They were 118th the year before they got there. Bumped to 91st. Then dropped again to 115th. That’s awful and he shouldn’t be considered.

It wasn’t until he was demoted in favor of Kittley, that they went from 115th to 2nd in the nation. If Ellis was good he’s the Oc this year and not a 27 year old first time OC in Arbuckle. Instead Ellis goes with Clay to GSU.

So possibly and hopefully KB and Sexton not trying to use us to get a raise to stay at ARK, may not be on the table

---

Maybe not to stay at AR but Sexton will not let us know that and will try to suck us up for every dollars before signing the dotted line. May be Sexton slow walking it just to squeeze a little more juice out of it. Like I said earlier, if KB wants out, we will get him. But Sexton will try to get the most for his man.

I'll take your word for it. I just looked at teams that throw it heavy and looked up their OC.

Which is what he is hired to do. Agents are hired to get the best possible contracts for their client. And make no mistake, Jimmy is one of the best to do it. He is in the same stratosphere as Boras, Rich Paul, Todd France, or Drew Rosenhaus

Jimmy is going to also make sure that his client is put in the best position to advance his career and if the rumblings out of Fayetteville are accurate then the best place for KB is Starkville

No doubt. But Yjnk was saying he’s hoping Sexton was not trying to use us to get a raise for KB to stay at AR. I was just saying Sexton is using us to get KB the most possible(whether he stays or comes to MSU). But make no mistake, he is “using” us for his client.

Sorry. Didn’t mean to come off ass-holish if I did. Lol.

I have just done some research on him in the past, cause I was like you curious. Since He’s in the AR system and all. Once I started looking into it, I was pretty shocked that he is still an OC somewhere. He’s one of the Helton brothers boys though I guess. He’s been with 1 or the other his whole career just about.

I will be shocked if its Briles. I would have been shocked from moment I heard this rumor on here

It's definitely starting to feel like it ain't Briles. Which will probably make our fans feel like we got schlossnagled....hopefully the results after are similar.
