Makes you terrified of what they expect to hire. if it's a "familiar name" as was mentioned earlier it's no doubt another good ole boy hire and not who's best for the program.
I'm off Arnett, regardless of who the OC is. The fact he let Hollinghead and Miller get downgraded and BoBo is a name at all = he is in over his head/is paying back the boosters that got him to be HC by letting them pick the staff. I'll watch the games but if we don't win 8+ my opinion of Arnett won't change. What a *****
Just let it play out. Friend, bump and Peterson are solid hires.

Triple option?

Again for those in the back: Bracky is retiring as soon as he can, he will not be the new AD, if you believe he will be I have bridge for sale for all y?all. Now back to your previously scheduled programming.

Friend is NOT a good hire, Auburn fans hated him. I love Bumphos and he may be great but his resume is weak as hell and Utah fans on Reddit don't mind him leaving. Peterson is a good hire
You cannot possibly disagree that these are Good Ole Boy hires, can you? Replace 2 good coaches with 2 guys with MS ties, and bring back a analyst that used to work here. Arnett has never met these people- the boosters have. Who is calling the shots here?
Even if you disagree that the boosters are running the show, why the hell is Bobos name brought up at all? Whether we hire him or not, the fact he's been names is a red flag for whoever is calling the shots.

I've lost a lot of confidence in Zach Arnett. Not as much as I've lost in Mark Keenum though. Just sloppy as hell.

Friend is absolutely a good hire. He put together an offensive gameplan in a week that almost beat us. He's a good OL coach. We've done well so far with him and Bump. Let's see how the rest shakes out

As good or better than our previous coach in the position?

Im not sure how some of you feel that this has been a train wreck? I mean, none of us are on the inside and really know how it?s going. We are getting reports from Steve, Paul, and those that think they know shit on here. We don?t know how this is really going down. Yet, some on here are throwing CZA under the bus and saying you?re ready to pull funding and this is a shit show. Y?all are some dumbasses.

Hes not a bad coach but, it feels like a downgrade... it it comes with Bobo being attached as OC we'll be looking for a new HC shortly...2 years at most is my guess..

As good for sure. Friend was a really good OL player in college and is well thought of. Our OL will continue to be coached well.

Friend has tons of contacts around Miss and Bama. I'm sure in other places as well.
