The buy out is 50% of the remaining contract

[confucius say]

Some of this is overboard. We are 5 games in and have the record most people predicted us to have, one game off at most (USCe).

Let the season play out and let's see where we are after thanksgiving and what adjustments we've made. If we are 4-8 and lose by 30 to OM, then yea we will start over. But give the guy more than 1 month of support.

[Goldendawg]

Oh I get it. I was open to it as well but then those numbers sort of slapped my into reality. I'm excited though, I think we're going to do it right this time. We better.

Don't forget Ed O is also available. Heard he interviews well and actually gets into his 4 point stance and goes one on one with College President or AD!***. Hail State or H*ll State?, how did we get in this mess?

[Dawgface]

Reminds me, Matt Wyatt was alluding to some things today too. First time I have listened to him in a while.

Like what?

[Coach34]

Reminder that the poster claiming we won't be able to hire anyone is the same poster who insisted that we not only could hire Kyle Whittingham away form Utah, but that Whittingham actively wanted our job. How can both of those be true?

That was what- 7 years ago? Whittingham is now committed to Utah. We kicked the tires with him before hiring Leach. He's not interested anymore

I agree, but we know there were a bunch that were never behind him just like there was bunch never behind Leach and a bunch never behind Mullen. I think the whole bunch left Moorehead pretty quick. Lol

It is not that we are 2-3, just here people thought we would be. It's how totally bad we have looked in those wins and loses. Have you checked our position in recruiting to boot? Our new staff's fence with its MS connections to clean up with the best players in the state is working about as well as our southern border.**. Seriously, to add, with our problems at DL, to date we have one DL commit in a loaded MS HS class for 2024. We should be cleaning up with our record of many highly paid DL in the NFL. JMO, but SMH!

[BlackSailsDawg]

With a generational QB in Lamar at that.

Kinne's at TX State is interesting, low on HC experience though.

Would take him!

This all day. Thats all I'm doing.

If we will get off our pocketbook and make a legitimate Nationwide Search, there are many good, experienced, even successful coaches at many levels, that want the chance and $ to coach in the SEC. This is true even to proof themselves and use us as stepping stone to a bigger job, (see Dan). Hail State!

It's the way we look on the field. It's the clueless look Arnett has on the sideline. He's had a deer in the headlights look in every game but SELA. Compound that with Brad Peterson the Coach Whisperer and it's looking like a clown show that is not going to get any better this year.

Not just "deer in headlights look" in games, also in interviews. Of course not much impressive to comment on to date.

And if it doesn't, fire him. I'll be all for it.
But people conducting coaching searches at this point is a little much. It's not good for recruiting either.

Not really. We are 6 inches from having won 1 game. 1.

This staff has taken a 9 win Vet team allowing 1 sack per 24 attempts to a team that is lost and allowing 1 sack in every 10 attempts. A defense that is lost and soft... And they did it in record time.

It's a message board.

You know what's really not good for recruiting? The shit show we have going on right now.

[Maverick91]

You just have to be careful at that small of a program with long history of success with multiple coaches. Gohl built it but has been below .500 At Wyoming. Klieman absolutely! And was even better than Gohl. He also spent several years at Northern Iowa. They churn out top notch coaches. Entz hasn't maintained that same level as Klieman I would like to see a G5 level success from him or him to pick back up NDST for a few years. Great coach though and also a part of that Northern Iowa tree.

Wel will see I get your point. But he was given the keys to the Corvette and hasn?t wrecked it much less dinged it yet.

Arizona was 6 inches from a first down. Not tying the game, much less winning. We should have not been in that position but that's not true to say we were 6 inches from losing.

I hear ya, just want to see him over come So Dakota and win another title or two. If you are going to drop all the way down and pick from FCS all the way up to the SEC, they had better have titles and a lot of them. I'm also cautious in picking follow-up coaches. He was the DC following Kileman at Northern Iowa. He was Klieman's DC at NDST following him as HC. He's a good coach though. Offensive guys will be a hard sell on him. Especially if he is going to run the same offense in the SEC.

[CoachT14]

Never thought I would see C34 defend Lemonis, as he has recently & this incompetent FB staff which is terrible in all areas except special teams.

Jean 34 is getting to hob knob with the new staff so he will defend them till the end.

Outside of Will and friends, the kids don’t give a damn what is said on a message board.

Our shitshow of a coaching staff is 10x more detrimental than a message board to recruiting.

The fact that you’re arguing that just because we are 2-3 “like everyone predicted” and ignoring what lead to that record tells me all I need to know. Some folks just want to ignore reality until it smacks them right in the face.
