    I feel like Bobo is the guy they are throwing out so we will be relieved at the guy that was their third or fourth choice.

    Well, people connected to the staff are saying it's Bobo. Doesn't appear to be just floating out there, other than like a big turd in a punch bowl.

    I just cannot believe that is possible. You really think Arnett is looking at Bobo and thinking "yea, he wasn't that great at UGA, but look at the talent constraints he was operating under. He'll be a lot better with the massive talent we have stockpiled."

    Granted I think an OC that is an ex head coach is a good idea, but he also has to offer a lot as an OC.

    Oh, while the bad news is flowing, Bracky Brett has a chance to be our full time AD....

    So there's that too

    On top of everything else. We have boosters pushing for Bracky Brett because he'll listen to them. We'll be selling home games to SEC opponents in no time at this rate.

    I thought Bracky wanted to retire and that was a definite?

    I think he did. But he's probably been emboldened by all these boosters telling him how good of a job he's doing.

    I am willing to give them the benefit of the doubt on AD hires. We are the best in the country at AD selection.

    If we do that then I will be done. I can get boosters wanting an AD that will do what they say, but there are a lot of qualified athletic directors that will also be yes men when requested.

    Nobody has said that list is the actual names that CZA has and hopefully that and some of this other crap is a smoke screen but it is looking more and more like it's the reality of our football program right now.

    I wasn't a fan of the arnett hire. I started to change my opinion when he held our class together, and he even added. I really started to change my mind when I heard KB as OC. If we end up with bobo though, man, I think we really messed up at the top. Hopefully he sees something in bobo that I don't

    This should have been an easy decision from the very beginning. You shoot for Zach Kittley, which was always an unlikely hire. You at least try it. Then, you go to Chris Hatcher. The least amount of offensive transition would have been made with Hatcher. He's basically Mike's Air Raid with more RPO and more emphasis on running the ball but not to the point where you are a run first or run to set up the pass team. The guy has been a head coach for 22 years and is still just 49 years old.

    I agree on Chris Hatcher first. He would have accepted the job and we wouldn't be going through all of this crap.............. Some of these spectacular hires are going to really help our NIl aren't they.*** Briles was a pipe dream. The only way he would leave ARK was if he wanted to get away from Pittman.

    Ok so I guess Will Friend will be hired today if these rumors are true.

    Friend is reportedly being hired by Memphis, so we will see.

    Offer will Hall 1.7 million to be Offensive Coordinator

    Southern miss can not pay that and he?s a good recruiter , he knows Mississippi , Louisiana , and Alabama very very well

    Bring Frank Gore Jr with him

    It will help him fast track into being a Higher up G5 head coach

    He will be stuck at usm because an 7-8 win season is all they can hope for

    1. Gore is not better than either Marks or Price
    2. I don't give a 17 if he knows MS, LA, or AL very well. We have Tony, Rod, and Brad on staff for that.
    3. WE don't have to offer Will F'N Hall 1.7 million. Offer him 700K and say take it or leave it.
