Anybody who wants muss fired after this season is a moron, but if he leaves on his own I think he’s at least put us in a position to be a desirable destination to most potential coaches. He’s proven you can recruit and win at an elite level still here.

Don't understand all the love for Beard. He isn't a bad coach but I think a lot of guys could be successful here.
I'd take Porter Moser and his ability to develop talent over time over the Transfer portal revolving door we have now if Muss were to leave. He has fared pretty well head to head against Muss.
..... all that said... I'll believe he's leaving when I see it.

Agreed. I certainly don't want Muss to leave, but if he does, then I think Yurachek is well positioned to make another great hire. I get the skepticism with Yurachek given the state of the football program (which was of his own making), but he has proven he's willing and capable of going after some high quality basketball coaches if the 2019 search is any indication. The reported targets in 2019 were:
Beard (the white whale - busy playing for a national championship)
Sampson (proven coach and cheat)
Muss (no explanation needed)
Gregg Marshall (big name at the time and proven psychopath)
Arkansas basketball is one of the top 2-3 jobs in the league, which cannot be said for the football program. That said, the dynamics of college coaching and recruiting have changed substantially since 2019.
