Primetime is our best option if Leach retires.
1. His strength would be recruiting and working the NIL game. This is an area where we are weak.
2. Has coached in Mississippi.
3. Could have a CEO program built around him so we aren't married to a system. Flexibility has always helped us.
4. Would help the MSU brand in general. With Dak and Primetime, a lot of kids would see State as directly affiliated with the NFL (what they care about anyway).
5. The market for coaches is competitive this year, but Sanders is usually no.3 on most people's lists. If we offer first, we could actually get him instead of a retread or an up-and-coming coordinator.

I would be fine with hiring Deion if he gets quality coordinators. Would be nice to keep Arnett and then hire a solid OC.

Deon has his sights on another State.

Exactly. Dion is only in this state because he wanted to prove something at a certain type of school. (HBS)
He won't ever be our coach.

Naw, he just wants out of Jackson!! He would be a good hire and we wouldn't have to break the "bank" Gamble maybe but worth a try with the pup, recruiting and NIL he brings to the table.

Hiring a coach without good evidence he can coach is a risky proposition. I'm also curious just how much people are planning to pay Deion to be CEO, and also to pay coordinators to do the actual coaching. We'd need probably $3M a year just for an offensive and defensive coordinator.

Coaching in the SWAC where you have more talent on your football team than any other team in that conference is altogether different than coaching in the SEC. Limited time as a college head coach and he is not an x and o's coach but more like a CEO. Would he have the connections to get the type of coaches you would need to compete in the SEC, and then the money to pay these coaches? I do think he would definitely help in marketing the MSU brand. Some even think CML is going to step down after the Egg Bowl and Coach Prime is an option. So you may get your wish, but I wouldn't bet any money on either of those happening.

I dont see any SEC school hiring PrimeTime as their HC.

If Leach leaves, State will either get a HC from the G5 or coordinator from the P5

Prime won't get hired directly to an SEC job from the SWAC.
Also people don't seem to realize although the hiring of Prime might be exciting, the divorce from Prime could be way worse than anything imaginable. Especially if the university has to pull the trigger to fire him.

Croom tried to destroy and some were with him, but IF PT failed time would pass quickly.

How about not only no but fuuuuuuuucccckkkkkk nooooooooo

I don't care, give me Freeze. He would kill it here with NIL being allowed. That being said, I'd be fine with Primetime. You gotta take chances here. Worst case you move on after 2 seasons and try again.

Talk about a split and disorganized fan base. This trying again stuff every few years doesn't work.

No, the worst case is you move on and he takes all the best talent with him. 4-5 years before you can compete again. At least with a typical hire you're only 2 years away from competing.

There's no way in hell we're ever going to get Freeze.
Even if we made him solid offers he's never going to coach at MSU. We ruined his gig at Ole Miss.

We aren't going to make him any offer even if he wanted to come here. He would like the OM job again , but don't see that happening either.
