    Gonna get some eye rolls...

    I would get Bob Stoops for a good Cost and then Let him hire high quality assistants. Let BS be the GM of Football.

    That's if I were an AD looking for a coach. BS is the Walmart Saban. But probably neither guy wants to run a program anymore.

    Hogs 247 moderator floating Dabo as a rumor he is hearing. But I wonder if that is just a distraction for the weekend away from whoever the real coach is.

    Jomo sucked. As of now, I give the edge to Lebby. I would like to see Lebby with the 2018 team and see how it went.
    Jomo turned a 10-win team into 8 imo.
    Lebby still has a game left, but so far, I feel like he's turned a 6-7 win team into 5.

    And if you come back with preseason win totals this season, keep in mind that our win total was 8.5 in 2018 for Moorhead's first season

    So you are saying JMo under performed by half a game and Lebby over performed by 1.5 games with one more game to be played

    No, I'm saying preseason win totals is a horrible way to judge a coach. That 2018 team was a 10-win team, but Joe sucks

    Comparing those two is like trying to compare apples to gourds.

    They both suck, but I do think Lebby sucks less

    This post is made with zero context, per usual. The only thing that these situations have in common is MSU football. Please, Mr 800 k post count, just save it. We all know where you fall and trust me this post is really not a reply to you.

    I'm sorry I hurt your feelings, but trust me, it's nothing personal with you. I'm discussing the topic, while you and your minions always go straight to attacking the poster(s). Guess that makes sense when you have nothing to support your opinion.

    Did anyone see what Coach Saban said about changing the recruiting schedules to match academic schedules on Gameday? Also brought up the point that the NCAA should be like the NFL and not allow coaches to negotiate with other teams until the season ends. His main argument was doing it for the players so they don't have to worry about all the outside noise during the season.

    Thoughts?

    Especially when it doesn't fit your narrative.

    Only coaching changes we should be discussing are on the defensive side of the ball at MSU.

    but the coach is factored into win numbers so that doesn't make sense. Vegas judges the coach as part of the overall totals and usually are pretty close. Vegas knew nothing about JMo so docked us a game for that (they were right - JMo cost us 2). It would have been 9.5 if Dan stayed. They couldn't make a determination on Lebby because he was working with the worst P4 roster last year and gave us 3.5.

    If Saban was our coach in 2018 then our win total would have been 10.5.

    What if I told you Vegas sets win totals on public perception, not what they think the win total will actually be?

    Would have some good/some bad consequences like everything else. If you move the recruiting calendar and all of that back players wouldn't be able to enroll in December and participate in bowl practice. Players still have the option to sign in February as it is. If they're concerned about coaching changes that is still an option for them.

    Personally if a coach wants to leave they're going to be doing everything under the table anyway and I would rather them go ahead and leave ASAP rather than just stay around.

    Vegas sets the win total on what avg Joe thinks a win total will be to get action on both sides. They aren't saying what they think a team will actually win

    Then that means we are still better in the eyes of everyone that follows college football fans except for a few of our dumbass fans like you.
