this is beyond stupid at this point, either crap or get off the pot. You have a job do it. If Arnett coaches the EB Selmon needs to be unemployed as well.

If we fire Selmon, we need to fire the guy who hired him….seriously scorch the damn earth at this pointQuote:

Strike 1 Zac; we're waiting and the clock is ticking.
I don't care who the ad is but firing him now makes ZERO difference except making some people in the internet happy. That's allQuote:

Fans are incredibly unhappy with Arnett, so he's got to go. If somehow fans were fine with this season, Arnett would stay.
I thought that too but I'm honestly think if we fired him, Brock, and Barbay and let the Rogers call whatever offense in game we would be better
Will...really? Just finished watching Varsity Blues again didn't you.Quote:

I know that's not the same, but I bet its the same in college. The team has given up on him. The fans have given up on him. Recruits are giving up on him and it'll get worse. We need the coaching world to know our job is open right now. We need to be interviewing right now and have our new coach lined up by the end of the regular season, not starting at the end of the season. It only gets worse by waiting in every way possible.Quote:

It happens all the time and it would probably improve the attitude and effort on the team. Ow would it translate to a W? Maybe, but not guaranteed. Other teams fire their coach or coordinators mid season, but we have to put up with it for the entire season because we are MSU? Don?t let that mentality get to youQuote:

But then ... we're MSU and if it can be FUBAR'd more than it is now, we can do it *
I mean do we want to have State fans show up to the next two games or not. I was planning to go to both at the start of this season.Quote:

I think I speak for the average out of town state fan.
