This, people have short term memories. Dykes had sucked at cal

Deion would blow up recruiting here. The outside attention alone would justify the hire. It's not like he will call plays or scheme. And this game is about Jimmys and Joes and we need a LOT of help in this area.we would have a top 10 class with prime here.
And there?s a reason for that. Most people have objectively be able to say that it wasn?t Dykes? fault. There are a ton of internal issues above the head football coach?s head out there.
Not to mention most people, including Dykes realize that was a terrible fit. His record outside of Cal is more than worth excusing the 4 years there.
NIL is going to be the new big factor in attracting a coach. MSU is at a bigger disadvantage with NIL than it was at during the days of “impermissible benefits”. With NIL, there really doesn’t have to be any restraint or discretion, therefore everyone can jump in without worry.
At this point, MSU is way behind in salary and way behind in NIL. I imagine an up and coming coach like Prime or some hot shot coordinator will probably wait for a better situation.
Dykes at Cal was as bad as Mhead at State. Both bad hires by idiots in charge.
Dykes can recruit in the SE along with TX and mid west.
I for one don?t want the clown circus show that goes with Deion. He is making so much money on his production show that promotes just him.
We don?t want or need a coach who is more worried about getting his production company more money & access across the airways than worrying about how best to recruit and what?s best for State? not Deion.
Plus he isn?t ready for the SEC. HELL before he took the job at JSU he was coaching his son in high school and MRA smoked his ass in Madison.
He would be a joke here. If our administration would offer him over some other coaches that are available?. Then we deserve to get what a ridiculous clown show it would be.
He isn?t ready for the SEC PERIOD.
And who might be some of those other coaches available that you mention? Deion is a sitting HC. He knows how to market a program. Do I care if he is marketing himself as well? Not one bit. Mullen marketed himself from Day 1. Kiffin markets himself at OM. Saban? Same thing. Everyone wants to talk about how at State we have to be different, well this is different.
Joe Judge is available this time around. I?d rather have Biliema. He has Illinois competitive in the B 1 G
He lost more heartbreaking, close games than anyone I've ever seen from about 2014-2016. Sometimes a field goal here and there can be the difference between 7 and 10 wins. He actually had quite a bit of NFL talent to work with during that time.
But toward the end I think he got too drunk and lazy in recruiting and it was time to move on. He's a decent coach when he's focused.
Deion is a CEO coach not an X's and O's coach.
There's plenty of Air Raid disciples willing to be OC. Arnett looks happy being the defense head coach.
Give me that + a new QB and that's second best case scenario for me behind Leach and a talented QB to run the whole offense.
