I believe the shine is off Hudspeth - his SEC ship sailed when in 2014 Dan Mullen was 4-6 with two games to go and beat both Arkansas (0-8 in the SEC) and Ole Miss in overtime to make it to .500 and a Liberty Bowl where the legend of Dak Prescott was created. They had Hud coming off back to back to back 9-4 seasons ready to go and he was a MSU fan. In a way, its our fault Hud isn't already a SEC coach.

He's now had back to back losing seasons (4-8 and 6-7) with two 5th place finishes in a conference of declining quality. I think you'll see him wrap up his head coaching career either retiring or getting fired from ULaLa

If we hire anyone local it would be Jay Hopson at Southern. Ole Miss grad and former assistant. However, it doesn't matter, Freeze is not getting fired.

This might be a pipe dream but I wonder if Mike MacIntyre would have any interest? He's a former assistant here and we could probably double his salary.

Hopson would be good as well.

Was curious on view of Hudspeth.

Agree on Freeze. It was just a hypothetical.

I'm curious about where you're coming from here. Why not? The NCAA didn't just wake up one day and pull our name out of a hat. All this went down under his watch. He's a Top 10 salary head coach in the country. We pay him $4.5m a year to have members of his staff texting players about money with their own phones, under their own names?
