Personally, I hope we go with an outside hire. Just drop a shitload of cash on a modern air raid guy.
Graham Harrell will be mentioned, Seth Litrell, Zach Kittley, Jake Spavital, Matt Mumme
If it is in house I would prefer to give it to Miller or Hollingshead over Spurrier. And I am not wild about giving it to either of those two.
I'd go after Graham Harrell.
I really like Harrell, but can see the benefit or bringing Litrell in to provide some HC experience on staff.
No to Spurrier/
West Virginia was pretty meh with him as an OC this year.Quote:

Yea but also his 1st year as OC there. He did alright at USC the 2 previous years.Quote:

Spurrier Jr should get it. He has earned it and he would tweak it a little. He would do well. Leach trusted him enough to be in the box and that is the biggest one Leach communicated with during games. Tells you all you need to know
Hmmm, everyone around here has a different opinion on Jr. So, this is quite enlightening.Quote:

Yea .. I figured as such LOL. I meant it as a question and I'm guessing you took it that way.Quote:

Seth Littrell
This is who I think it'll be.Quote:

Why has no one been interested in Spurrier Jr all these years (as an OC or HC)? That to me is a red flag. Tell me if I'm wrong....
MS7, just like 90%+ of us, are tickled to death with the air raid, as long as it is a modern, updated version. More running, more vertical passing, running QB, etc...Quote:

And an OC that can provide stability more than one year. One that does not flash for a year and then leave , taking your skill players.Quote:

Listening to Arnett talk it really seems like he loves Starkville. Could that be coach speak? Absolutely. Could that change now that he's in the big chair? Absolutely. But I really do believe he enjoys being in Starkville and at Mississippi State.Quote:

Littrell would be my first call. He was really successful and had one of the top offenses. He got fired because he couldn't win bowl games and conference championship but he was getting there. I say make him the guy. Lot of experience and a good offensive guy. Can recruit Texas Oklahoma for guys to run this offense.
Harrell would be my second choice.
I?d at least kick the tires and call Garrett Riley. Probably wouldn?t leave TCU but it?s worth a shot
I just don?t think you can have first timers at HC, OC, and DC. That?s a recipe for disaster
