Next Head FB coach

[msstate7]

Whatever we do, keep Arnett.

I'd like to keep arnett. I will say that over the years, I've learned though that we seem to keep a good DC. I wouldn't base a decision on HC on what it means for arnett

[Cowbell]

Hear me out....

Arnette HC and bring back Mullen as OC. We Would freaking roll people.

[Saltydog]

Sad overall situation with Coach Leach. When the page turns where do we go for our next head coach?

Arnett proved enough to be able to run the program?

Mullen on line 2?

I don't think there's any way that we don't hire Arnett on an interim basis and then hire a DC and possibly let Spurrier Jr take the OC reigns.(& if not hire an OC as well). Time is simply not on our side. We don't have an AD, signing day is fast approaching, the transfer portal is open and you have a ton of guys that have committed to coming back. Bring in someone else and people start getting a little nervous wondering where they fit it and and the dominos start to fall. For continuity purposes I'm not sure we have any other options, at least until after next season. We were damn lucky to get CML when we did three years ago. We won't be that lucky again and given the timing of these events there's just too much risk in conducting an extensive search at this point, not unless we hire just to be hiring and I don't advocate that at all. I'm ultra conservative but the smart play here is to keep what we have in place for the time being.

What is some of our fans fascination with Kliff Kingsbury? The guy sucks as a head coach and belongs nowhere near our head job.

[LC Dawg]

I hope that all Mississippi State fans can accept that the success of our next head coach is going to be largely based on luck. We are in an unprecedented bad situation. We have to hire a coach right before (or after) signing day in the middle of the transfer portal and they have to be able to sign players, keep players, and also be ready to coach in the shadow of a famous coach that just passed away. There is no ideal candidate because this scenario has never existed.

[yjnkdawg]

What moral high ground? I think that it is more likely he is going to have another hire from within and that is not good for the school or anyone but the good ole boys.

Has nothing to do with the good ole boys. There is not an ideal situation under these circumstances. We need a HC by this first signing period if possible, and somebody who can keep the players together. You completely start over from scratch and see how many players transfer. Let's go with Arnett at HC and let him choose his staff but get an OC who has AR experience and go with it,

They obviously didn't watch him coach at tech - those teams were trash at times. I mean it was bad. He does not understand line of scrimmage football and will get destroyed in this league.

Your list is a dream. No way in hell Kingsbury even sniffs this job, nor does Deion, Gundy or Aranda. Mullen 2.0 likely isn't happening either. Some of you guys just aren't being rational here.

#9 is head and shoulders above the rest and is the obvious hire if he wants the job

[Cowbell]

Any talk of bringing Dan Mullen back is pure insanity. Anyone that took a girlfriend back after she dumped you and then got crushed by a redneck heartthrob but comes back knows it is a HORRIBLE mistake.

As an OC?

Be hard to get him to leave Ok St.

It would be the dumbest thing ever.

Will Rogers QB draw on 3rd and 12. Yeah.....

There are about a dozen dumber ideas in this thread alone.

North Carolina seems to be doing just fine

It’s amazing how some of y’all did nothing but bitch about the air raid and how it never would work, and now the same people are clamoring about making sure we stay with the air raid…

Say it louder for the people in the back!

I'd ditch it in a second. Since most here believe we should stick with it, I feel like our admin will agree, so I looked for some i could live with
