Why can we never hold onto a DC?
The question is, can Leach convince him to stay for a bit and build some more stock...
As good as Arnett is and as much as I want to keep him, we are going to have have a good defense most years (maybe 75% of the time?). Manny Diaz, Geoff Collins, Grantham, Bob Shoop, Arnett.......our players have proven they can make a lot of coaches look good. Just as important is that we keep the Strength and Conditioning program intact. Effort and tackling was the biggest difference year. We just have to make sure our DC has a hard edge. Peter Sirmon was too nice.
Build more stock than going to Texas?
That ain't happening. Unless he is content to wait for a HC position only.. which I doubt considering this was only his 3rd year of being a DC. Gonna need a few more years for someone to turn the keys over to their program.
I just hope for our sake he's not picked..
It's good that we have success but damn annoying to keep losing quality assistants.
*edit* 3 years
NO way in hell I would take a job that requires a alcoholic as a boss to stay sober.
I bet they end up keeping Ash as DC.
If he is offered the job, then he is as good as gone. That is a huge job.
We just offered him a raise and now we're going to have to do it again. There's goes the budget for chairbacking DWS*****
Arnett is not interested in the Texas DC job from what I was told. Does not like the situation there.
I don't see how anyone could like the situation there. It's Auburn on a bigger scale. All the power lies with the Board of Regents. The AD and the school president are nothing more than figureheads. The Board of Regents operates almost independently from the school so no one ever seems to know what the heck is going on. But if you're looking for a payday then it's almost guaranteed you'll get one when they buy you out of your contract in 2 to 3 years.
Arnett is going to be on damn near every big time school that is looking for a DC...
And I look for them to keep Ash..
