Boring and stale does not matter. The only thing that matters is wins.
Our best basketball coaches have been Stansbury and Jans, hardly guys who exude excitement.

What a bad move that will effectively lose the fan base. No one wants Sumrall. By a large margin.
We won under Mike Leach but we were boring and stale and the fan base was waining. Sumrall ain?t going to fix that.
Kiffin will run circles around him in in-state recruiting. Much like he did with Arnett. Our skill players will transfer out because they will be in the same damn offense we may right now. They want no part of that.
If we lose people like you bc you pout and don't get "your" guy then so be it. Hire the best coach. That's what ZA is getting paid to do. I trust he will do what he can to do that.

If we're down to Lebby and Sumrall, then that's sad. That screams we got turned down by our top 6 to 8 targets.

Not really.
Lebby is our number 1 coordinator target.
We could hire head coaches like Odom, Sumrall, Fritz, etc
Klieman and Leipold were always going to be tough. Elko has listened. Who else did you expect.

Nobody here except maybe Clark knows that. For all you know Lebby was always first choice. What this board wants does not necessarily equal the decision makers process

To be honest, I'm not sure what other coordinators are really in contention. I thought you more than any other poster was talking about how our job wasn't a hard job and so dropping down to a coordinator kind of screams "hard job".
I'll get on board with Lebby, but he was way down the list when this process got started.

And ZA sucked at his job. Sumrall is a ZA clone. I could get careless if I got my job. I just don?t want Sumrall anywhere around this program.

Yeah, I guess. If a coordinator though, I would think it would be someone with some consistency, in a certain tree. Take Mullen - he was with Urban for years and years. Lebby has bounced around and has usually been under a new coach learning how to run a program. Kiffin is the exception and he only stayed 2 years there. He doesn't stay anywhere long. Idk, maybe he'll be great. If he's hired, I hope for the best.

If it is a coordinator, I would hope it is someone who has been in the SEC, extra points if in Mississippi, has shown his offense works everywhere he goes like Mullen?s, and has a good relationship with someone who was a successful HC they can lean on for advice.
Sound like anyone we know?

You?re insane if you think Jans excited the fanbase upon being hired.

You do not know that. You only know he was down the list of people message boards mentioned.

Bingo! Contrary to popular belief, Selmon most likely is not consulting message boards in his process.
