To me, Collins has a soft personality and so did our defense. I also think you have to have thick skin to work with Mullen and that ain't all bad! We definitely back peddle on defense with more talent this past year.

I'm still trying to figure out from which file cabinet we dug out the Chris Wilson Oxford game plan. Or why.

Realistic expectations or not, I think the Pelini talk can stop. Reports are that he is going to be the new head coach of Youngstown State.

Where is Manny? Mixed on this due to how he left. Wifey does not like Starkvegas either does she?
Never underestimate the power of the Maroon and White Nation.

That was the main reason he left from what I heard at the time. I wonder what she thinks about the nightlife and social life in Ruston? LOL

I think the MAIN reason was it was Texas and a bump in pay. Rumor was she didn't like Starkville but it wasn't the main reason he left.

What goes around comes around.

FWIW...Jonathan Banks tweeted at Dan Mullen "So we bringing back @Coach_MannyDiaz?"
-
I think Manny has been humbled a good bit. He left for Texas and wound up at Ruston. The grass ain't always greener. I think if given the chance Manny would come back with renewed vigor ready to coach a damn good SEC level defense.
Just as long as he doesn't do that 1b shit.

What's the infatuation with Diaz? I don't think he's that good & the #'s pretty much prove it.
-
I don't know about Manny, he's still young and learning. I'm just glad I'm not Dan at the moment. With four DCs in and out in a short time, this hire needs to be perfect and that don't exist.

I think I might agree here.

Totally agree. I will be severely disappointed if we hire Diaz back.

^This.
Forget whether or not his wife liked Starkville or whether he would leave again. Why is everyone overlooking that his defense at Texas completely sucked ass, or that his defense at MSU was mediocre at best considering the number of future NFL players he had to work with?

How about a guy like Barry Odom at Memphis? I thought he did a heck of a job there. Only thing is he is a secondary coach as well and not a LB coach.

It's the roller coaster of hope that this program keeps us on that makes it hell being a State fan. - CadaverDawg, 10/15/22
