    Who could be our Ed Orgeron

    Who in the coaching ranks could be for us what Ed Orgeron is for LSU?

    Someone from the state, passionate and relentless, can connect with the kids, recruit, and understands MSU.

    Is there anyone that is working their way up that might could be that for us? I really think that's what it will take to get us to where we want to be. Someone that thinks MSU is the greatest job in the world and the only place they want to be.

    Is there anyone we could be watching or paying attention to that might down the road be that for us?

    Everyone says Hud, but since he's the obvious answer, let's put on our thinking caps & find another guy

    Actually ... I've always dismissed this idea but I'm warming up to it some now. I don't think he can do any worse than what has happened the last 2 years and probably would do better.

    I think he is the obvious answer because he is the only answer

    Y’all need to get off this Hud deal. He’s not what we need. Plus, we need someone to embezzle money to funnel to recruits, right after we fire Bracky.

    Coach34 fits the bill.

    This was what I was hoping for. Obviously Hud is the one people will say. I would hate that hire. Do we really not have anyone else that might in the next 5-10 years have the chops to handle a job like ours that would fit that description?

    AR, Vandy, & SC (possibly OM), are going to be coach shopping. We going to wait out this year and make the big splash next year.

    none of those schools except for OM should impact us at all. And I don't think OM will be shopping this year. I think they will be next year.

    I fell off the Hud bandwagon but there is no doubt in my mind he would have done better last year and this season than Moorehead has done. Hud would have smoked the fighting ******* last year. He would be running the offense that we should be running. It would be the perfect fit if it ever works out. And by working out, I mean Hud has to continue to grow as a coach also.

    Yep, embezzlement and funneling cash is the key to making any coach look good. We have yet to master this art and making the bastards play hard for that cash.

    We caught lightning in a bottle with Mullen. He was an up and coming OC with a gold resume from the SEC. However, we are not going to find an Ed O., unless we open the pocketbook and hire better assistants. Heck, Ed O. is what he is because of the coordinators, and he is the recruiter.

    No we don't need to get off of Hud. Just like Coach O was a major question mark for LSU a couple of years ago. And I bet if you asked LSU fans at that time if they would replace Les Miles with Coach O they would say hell no.

    The reality is MSU has been missing the mark at head coach by trying to find a genius play caller when what we really need is a CEO coach that is not married to a system and allows coordinators to do their jobs. Just like Jackie.

    My three:

    1. Joe Judge. Has coached under both Saban and Bellicheck. Has coached all three phases of the game. MSU is possibly his dream job. He's still pretty young though- which could mean he is the guy after the next guy for us.

    2. Shane Beamer. Assistant HC at Oklahoma. Has also coached in all three phases of the game. Wife is from the Starkville area or at the very least Mississippi. Is considered a good recruiter. Has been under his Dad, Kirby Smart at Georgia, Spurrier, and Fulmer as well as Lincoln Riley. He has probably made a lot of connections in the industry with every coach in America going to Oklahoma for offensive ideas. Has coached at MSU.

    3. Hud. Would recruit well in Mississippi. Would probably run Dan's offense or something similar. Has won everywhere he has been except for when ULL was on probation because of David Saunders as collateral damage in the Ole Miss investigation. Would likely be able to bring in Will Hall to run the offense.

    You're exactly right. Which is why we actually would end up likely saving money because none of the MSU versions of Coach O are going to be on the high end of any coaching searches outside of MSU. I think that would be pretty appealing to Cohen if he's going cheap.

    Going to be a lot easier to do that with the new NCAA rules regarding players receiving cash for their likeness being used.

    Sorry Brackey.**

    I just hope that MSU has some people like Mossy Oak, Bryan, and multiple furniture companies lined up already. And I'm not 99% sure we don't.

    This fascination with Hud is beyond stupid. Guy is a bat shit crazy ass hat. Some of the crazy bullshit he did at ULL was borderline insanity and quite frankly, it was creepy as hell.
