Next Head FB coach

[memsu06]

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.

That's going to be one hell of a task for the new AD.

Replacing a so well known coach at a time of grieving for the players and fanbase.

I'd roll with Arnett and the current staff. They obviously like working together and keeping that continuity is a good thing.

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

I'd be down with Kane Wommack. He did an outstanding job at South Alabama. He's a defensive/special teams guy. So I think he would be OK with an Air Raid OC. Of course, the question is can he be a CEO guy and let Arnett do his thing?

No to Will Hall. He called out USM fans earlier in the season like Moorhead did- and that's something our fans don't tolerate very well. Personally, I think he's a bit overrated anyway.

[Todd4State]

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...

Yep. Deion would start his son at QB no question. That would be pretty awkward given the situation.

[msstate7]

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.

The offense was struggling this year with one of the best air raid coaches. If we go air raid coaches, we most likely downgrade

I think Coach Leach was about to modify the offense a bit with the way he was recruiting. Parson is a different type of cat and I really really hate that we won’t get to see Coach Leach use him. I think a guy like Riley would do really well with that type of quarterback once he gets some seasoning.

I handed it off to you and you took it 80 yards to the house! Bravo sir!!

You don't want to run the air raid, period. We get it.

This offensive roster is not built for Mullen?s or a similar offense, especially at qb

[viverlibre]

1) It wouldn't take much for Gus, Dan or any other competent spread option coach to get their system up and running, just get a couple of QBs and RBs from the Portal and you're set. Although the OL has primarily pass blocked for the last few years, they can be trained to run block, most of them likely went through HS in a spread option offense.

2) Deon is absolutely not doing to leave Colorado after just taking the job and putting his players through the portal to sign with Col.

Call it ruthless but if we have an interim for the next year you can say goodbye to the program Mike built. You can?t sustain it in modern day football

And a "chat room" is gonna take a stand, no matter how hard it is, and do what needs to be done and hire our next coach? You and the OP have ZERO to do with what our administration does so yeah, this thread is needless and premature. Our "discussion" on who should be our next coach is worthless and honestly quite heartless.

Cool. Don’t read then. Why are you on a message board if you don’t want to discuss stuff inside the program? Makes 0 sense.

[Really Clark?]

I don't believe in going down a coaching list right now and don't believe in bringing former coaches back, including Dan, but he has proven he can run a pass first offense without a lot of QB runs. It's not what he prefers, but he ran a pass first offense with Kyle Trisk. You find a coach that's adaptable in that model even if you are changing scheme.

[smootness]

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

LOL no he would not.

And yet here you are. Irony

There’s not a ton of upside with Wommack to me. He’s young but this is his first year of success there. I’d rather take the risk with a Riley type because offensive coaches tend to workout better than defensive guys in the long run I think.

Not to mention with Riley you know you’re getting an Air Raid guy.

I don't recall anyone making you click the thread, read the thread, or respond to the thread.

It's not heartless at all, and I wish people would stop with all this fake outrage. It's more disrespectful than the discussion they're complaining about imo.

Look up the definition of irony douche, not even close. I wasn't adding to this disrespectful thread, I was calling out you dumbasses for "moving on" while many are praying for a miracle. It's called respect and class a**hole.

[bulldawg28]

Kiff Kingsbury may be on the market.

[dickiedawg]

We may be heartless for discussing it at this time, but someone on campus dang well better be thinking about it.
You know Cohen had a list of candidates ready just in case, maybe he left it in his desk drawer.

Just stay out of the thread Mr. Moral Authority. You’re the guy being disrespectful.
