    You've got to wonder if he has some clause in his contract that may come into play with the F bombs, like unprofessional behavior, etc. It certainly is a terrible look for him and the University, really unprofessional and low class.

    I screamed 17 all night watching that game. I'm ready to be fired as a fan.

    Hahaha! I understand completely! I have too as a fan. Completely in your rights. But when you're the front man of a multi million dollar business, it's unacceptable and shows weakness and guarantees a lack of respect. He can get caught on the sidelines cursing players and coaches because it's not his fault that they show that. But when he stands in front of the camera knowing that "investors" and thousands of people including children are listening, he's a moron.

    Arnett just needs to go be a DC somewhere....which is exactly what will happen at the end of 2024.

    I could care less about what he says in interviews....

    He said the F bomb. Again. That's why the version on hail state edited it out. It wouldn't do that if he said fumble.

    And other coaches aren't dropping it consistently in their post game interviews and pressers. It's a bad look as the front man of our program. He needs to grow up.

    While I definitely didn?t like the fact that he completely changed the offense, I?m not ready to just up and say Zach can?t handle this. Mike Leach saw something there that made him believe that the program would be in good hands under Zach.

    We were all fooled in thinking that this was our up year roster due to all the seniors on it. There is a reason many of those guys are 6th year guys. We have gotten little to no impact from the 21 and 22 recruiting classes. That?s just the facts.

    Fact is, we are in a situation where I?m not sure any coach that isn?t Mike Leach would have had success in.

    I finally heard it. He said it really mostly under his breath, that's why it was so hard for me to hear it. It's a big nothing burger IMO.

    In leadership circles, it's a huge something burger. Glad you don't care though.

    I care about results ... and those do suck now. Saban uses F bomb all the time. Maybe not with media but he uses it.

    Not sure I'd trust Mike Leach's opinion on the program being in good shape in Arnett's hands, since Mike Leach didn't give a f--k.

    Almost everyone uses it. Leaders don't use it when they are representing the company they work for. I use it sometimes at work in a closed door situation. I would never use it while speaking publicly or addressing my team in a public forum. It's horrible weakness. The dude is in way over his head. And he knows it. The stress is kicking his butt.

    Saban, Smart, etc.... do not use it when speaking as the representative of their schools. They chew their players asses out and it gets caught on camera.

    He looks physically like like he is overwhelmed. That's what worries me. The leadership piece seems to be missing.

    I agree. Most people aren't cut out for that situation.

    He's totally lost on the sideline. I wouldn't be too surprised if he could be talked into stepping down at the end of the season. He's in way over his head. Peterson giving him shit advice isn't helping him either.
