Next Head FB coach

[Twanger]

I know this name sounds ridiculous, but I think it would be a great fit, especially since Auburn has Freeze.Forgiveness and all that stuff. Bobby Petrino. Sounds crazy , but he puts up points.

[HoopsDawg]

Hear me out....

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

Why even post this?

[DownwardDawg]

I don't know what I want. I guess I'm just numb but trying to think about what's best for State. A Leach disciple that runs a more modern version similar to Tennessee would be great. I don't know who that would be.
A spread offense based on power running similar to what Auburn ran under malzahn fits our recruiting base better.
Hell I don't know anymore. I just hope whatever it is , it turns out good for us.
Hail State.

i haven’t read last 5 pages or so, and i’m not a State guy, but a name that was mentioned in LSU chat circles.

what about Rich Rodriguez?

no, not true Air Raid.
but his version of the spread Option wouldn’t require a complete flip of your roster.
could take over right now, and have almost immediate success.

has ties to LA, MS, AL, and SC for recruiting purposes.

No thanks. Our offensive personnel isn't geared towards a spread option offense at all.

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?

I bitched about how I didn't think the air raid in its purest form could work.

I'm all for running a modern air raid offense.

Will apparently has 2 years of eligibility left according to SEC Network. You run the offense he knows already. We don’t need to change anything.

We're stuck hiring Arnett to keep recruits and current players. The same ones recruited to play in the air raid. Everyone can forget any other candidates unless Arnett just doesn't want it (He does). If we were hiring a new coach with a system, it wouldn't be a problem.
Common sense is your friend.

This what I would prefer having gone this route. Run the kind that USC, houston, OU, TCU has been running

Same.

Yes I feel like AD will be hired by the bowl game. I know Dellenger said it would be after holidays but I expect us to have an AD by the end of calendar year. These guys can/will do final interviews in a week or two

[Tripp McNeely]

Did somebody honestly just suggest Rich Rod for our new head coach? That's a thing that just, actually happened?

[BeardoMSU]

Dan Holgorson would probably be a great fit, considering obviously scheme, but also the schools he's coached at (smaller, not bluebloods; similar to Mike).

No doubt we could offer him way more money than Houston, would just depend if he wants to leave TX and follow in his mentor's footsteps.

[GATORDawg1234]

Mullen and Monken are the only qualified candidates at this point. Zach Arnett is unqualified now and should not even receive an interview.

I suppose the moderator disagrees, because none of my pro-Mullen statements get posted, and the board is littered with dumb pro-Arnett propaganda. Zach Arnett is the Rick Ray of football and would be a terrible mistake. State should make him the highest-paid DC in America, not head coach.

But I suppose nobody will read this?

[GATORDawg1234]

The mod is not posting pro-Mullen comments. They censure more than pre-Musk Twitter. That is why we are reading the most absurd candidates; the moderators want Arnett.

Well it was an LSU fan

Since the AD search is paused, it's possible Dr. Keenum feels that the Coaching hire takes precedence over AD search. Didn't Howland hire happen outside the purview of AD?

Because this thread has few rational ideas and I wanted to fit in....

In other words we're going to do what Ole Miss did with Matt Luke and Houston Nutt and hope it works out better.

[GATORDawg1234]

Why will the mods not allow any pro-Dan Mullen sentiment? He is available and qualified.

I have never seen such censorship in my life.
