You have to ask your self why? Not like Ark and Missouri lit the world on fire with their hires.

Announce Billy, let him coach the Bowl game and in Starkville Tuesday.

It's not really micromanaging if the offense embarrassed the school so much that it results in the head coach being fired.

It's not out of the realm that he told them no. But I do understand where you're coming from.

Well it's not like either of those schools are known for making homerun hires (after the fact). Just think about the guys we passed over last go round.

You bring up a good point, but I think it should be noted Arkansas either couldn't get anyone to take their job or they just liked their internal guy more..... whatever it is I think naiper not being hired at Arkansas has more to do with Arkansas than naiper.

Mizzou made a good hire and Napier could have turned down the UPig job. Some guys wont jump at just any job- especially one that is going to take a couple of years to rebuild and has struggled for awhile

Pitman had a lot of people in his corner, players, former players, boosters, etc.

Some guys won't jump ship at just any job- especially one where their future employer has demonstrated that they will fire them before 2 years have passed.

So you like the direction our program is going and feel Moorhead should get another year or two?

If my father earned a multi-million dollar salary I would have to say no to a part time job especially a restaurant job. The money would not be worth the grief that comes from being a kid of a high profile parent.

I’m not so sure on the Mizzou hire. He had a great year at App St, but he’s very unproven and won all those games with Satterfields team. I would’ve been irate if we had hired him in this same cycle.

Good point. Maybe Napier decide it's better to stay at ULL for another week, another month, or another year, in order to get the right job fit for him.
