    We're 0-12 under Lebby. We literally can't do worse

    We aren't getting anyone. Our options are, lose with Lebby, or lose without him. It's that simple.

    Real devils advocate, the minute LSU cans Kelly, call him. He may not fit the Cajuns but we do not give a 17 about fit. Just win.

    I would call Dan way before Kelly - that guy don't fit in here no more than he fit in BR

    Dan is obviously the first call, if he will take it. That is what some are not understanding. Dan is not all that keen on coming back here because he does have good memories. He does not want it to go badly.

    I wouldn?t touch us with a 50ft pole. We refuse to fill up the stadium. We barely support the program compared to our league. Our facilities are the worst in the conference. Our NIL is just no where near it needs to be, we are a stepping stone for talent. It?s a hard sell for anyone.

    It is because 30% of our fanbase only cares about a non revenue sport. Which hey, that is fine. Spend your money on what you want to spend it on but we are wanting $5 results with .50 cent investment.

    When did our attendance take the significant dive? Moorhead ?
    The Florida MSU game his first year I thought we had good attendance.
    Or was it Covid that once many found other things to do just did not come back.

    You just laid out the Missippy Tate way of thinking perfectly. Well done.

    no f'ing way that I call Kelly and no one with a brain would either. LSU screwed the pooch hiring him, he was getting ready to retire from ND when LSU offered more money than he could imagine. Kelly will be gone before then end of the year and return up north where he fits in

    The SEC is also showing that even the teams with lots of talent will struggle 8-9 SEC weekends to bring their A game and emotion. We let TX into this game late with emotion when we had them down.
    I get NIL and it matters, but every year there will be games for the taking, where our guys are just up , and jump on a team before they can get going.
    I think the 9 game schedule will make it even more that way.

    State ain?t winning crap in the SEC without at least an SEC level coach and an SEC level offensive line. So we need to ?hire? both or get out of the SEC and play at the level of our coaching hires and offensive line recruitment.

    I just fear where he is leading us. I am all for patience when exactly no one else is in this day and age of college football but we have to start winning. Progress and getting better has to yield results and right now it is not. I like Jeff and I think he is a great guy and an elite OC. But at some point you have to be the HC. Right now he is operating as an HC like an OC.

    Yep. With Lebby at the helm, State is on the way to 4-8 and another 0-8 SEC slate while watching our arch rivals not only qualify for the playoffs but likely be a top 6 seed on OUR damn Football Field in front of about 25,000 Rebel fans!

    And because our admin is so damn cheap, instead of going out and paying a guy similar to Kiffin $8-9 million, we will give Lebby an extension and a raise to $5 million and go 3-9(0-9) next year to set the SEC record for consecutive losses and consecutive years without an SEC win!

    You will not get a guy similar to Kiffin. So you can put that thought to bed. If we offered 8-9 mil we would get someone in the neighborhood of Shane Beamer. You want someone in the neighborhood of a Kiffin, Drinwitz, etc. it will be a MINIMUM of 12-13. So staff included that is a 20 mil a year buy in with a fan base that has a way larger than it needs to be percentage of people that care more about what food is on the grill during a fall ball scrimmage at Dudy Noble than getting an elite QB out of the portal or getting 2 stud DTs

    Kiffin was just a successful HC at FaU when they got him. We need to get successful HC at a smaller school. Mullen was nice and all, but we're 0-3 on the hiring successful cood since
