    For 1 season. Then we would get a new DC. Rinse and repeat.

    All indications are that no matter what, Arnett is our guy through the bowl and if we decide to go with another HC it will be after an AD is hired. That is getting close to being done to though.

    Is everyone here the same exact person they were 5 years ago? No? Well I?m sure Dan has learned a few lessons too.

    With that being said

    Deion sanders would 100% leave Colorado tonight to come to MSU

    More money

    Better facilities

    The SEC

    Bigger spotlight

    In the south

    Great recruiting area

    Only thing is , I think he would clean house completely.

    The only person i think that may could stay is Arnette because he has a good track record the last 3 years here.

    I think you try your dangest to stay within the air raid system to help with the transition.

    1a. Garrett Riley. I’ve warmed to Riley. Big risk, big reward. He’s young. Brother to Lincoln so he’s got the pedigree. What he’s done with Duggan and the TCU offense is exactly what we need.

    If we can keep him paired with Arnett, that is a huge plus.

    1B. Jeff Traylor. He might be 1 depending on a few things. He’s going to be less risk, not sure how big the reward is. Though it could be a big reward. I’m not sure if he’s an air raid guy and that’s more the only worry I have. But he throws the ball a lot and runs it about like a lot of us have been asking. He may be a mixture of spread/air raid from what I can tell of his coordinators and him.

    2A. Jamey Chadwell. Winner. Will be a transition back to spread option though. Which is why he is here. I actually like him most of all. Mississippi connections. Could be a lifer.

    2b. Gus Bus. He’s won everywhere he’s been. Recruits to what has always been our strengths. Obviously a risk because of being fired at auburn. But I think he could up our recruiting level slightly which could change some things.

    3. Dave Clawson. Very similar to Mullen. But is a transition back to Spread option. Not sold on him in the SEC and his recruiting. But I could be wrong.

    4a/4b, 4c Kane Womack - USA and Jon Sumrall - Troy and Zach Arnett. Biggest risks than most above. Offenses will change. Decent upside. Have been in the SEC before as coordinators or coaches.

    5. Bring back Dan the Man. Doubt we ever get here, but dear god if we do. Just bring him back. It’s better than anything else we’d get if you get here.

    Sonny Dykes is actually my number one. But no way that happens. Granted I’d pay him 10 mil. And say take or it leave it. We’re in the SEC. Come to big boy football.

    I think you could look at Will Hall, (lot of jury still out here, great job with the hand he was dealt so far though, Willie Fritz (too old), Todd Monken, Rhett Lashlee, and Mike Elko

    Traylor runs a spread run / option - RPO offense. Utilizes mobile QB's. Riley is the only one on your list that runs an Air Raid type of offense

    Well then get ready for Joe Moorhead type transition 2.0.

    Everyone says that coaches should "adapt to their personnel" but the reality is they are going to run systems that they know and believe in.

    One giant problem. We already have a QB. And with Parson coming in our backup is better than what he would bring with him. Just sayin...
