    Jay Hopson

    Sorry if Germans. Just saw this tweet from Football Scoop so there's a good chance it's false.

    Dan Mullen has offered Mississippi State's remaining open coaching position to Jay Hopson sources tell FootballScoop https://t.co/sNnVtyuq1F

    Is he a recruiter? Maybe he replaces Hughes MS connections.

    You would think Hopson probably makes $250k + incentives at Alcorn. Wasnt that the pay grade for Deshea as well when he was the DB coach?

    Alcorn State's Jay Hopson made $150,000 under his old contract, but was rewarded with a three-year extension just before the start of the 2014 season. Details of the new contract were not released.

    Yay -- footballscoop article. Yet our fanbase clicks and discusses the notion.

    Let's allow others to report and individually verify.

    Pretty sure Alcorn state is a public university, so if the details of the contract weren't released, it's because nobody cared enough to ask.

    He was considered for the Louisiana Monroe job and wasn't selected. With the USM job open, he may be considered for it as well. Don't know what his goals are...guess we'll find out soon enough, probably fairly quick.

    It's not a click if it's a retweet on my timeline, but I understand your point.

    Would be a homerun if we can pay enough for a position coach. He is building a house in VBurg, so that may be a factor....

    I doubt Hopson will make that move as a Safeties coach, but that'd be a great hire if we could get him.

    That being said, it's total bull shit until someone with an ounce of knowledge or respectability reports it. FootballScoop is a shit burger

    FootballScoop just wants to stir up our fanbase and they apparently do an excellent job at that.

    Sorry guys. I didn't mean to post something that would lead to a relevant discussion if it were to come to fruition. I don't know why I'm even on a forum for meant for discussion of things that pertain to MSU.

    Bonner tweeted this a while ago:

    What Mullen told me: "I haven't talked to Jay Hopson. I haven't offered anyone a contract. We're going to wait until after signing day."

    You're fine. A lot of people don't know about the football scoop crap. It's Ole Miss guys apparently. I didn't know either until last week. I simply never paid attention to football scoop because, well, it's worthless.

    I wonder if maybe a co-coordinator title would be something we could entice him with if we truly wanted him. Considering that we hired a DC with less experience than some wanted it may not be a bad move for him to have some extra help. Plus being a co-DC would look better on a r?sum? if Hopson has aspirations of moving up like most have mentioned he does.

    I really don't know much about him honestly and I'm sure there's probably not much validity to the offer considering who reported it...just spitballing ideas.
