Yes, Kirby Smart tried to lure Enos last year but it was a no go.
Well, that was before his boss was on the verge of being fired.

Has nothing to do with Enos. IMO, Enos is probably the best OC we have had here in my lifetime and that includes Petrino.
Enos is pretty creative and still likes to run the ball heavy. He puts a good route tree together on all of his play designs.

Shame his talents are being wasted at Arkansas.

Don't know if you are just trying to rustle Arkie or not, but I heard that the non-compete clause was a non issue in Louisiana. I think he stays a Hog too FWIW.

I have heard this a few times but no one has really given a reason as to why. He would still be facing a potential lawsuit in the state of Arkansas for breaching that contract.

Some would say we have Enos envy.
Had to do it.

this is a great idea...pay our Head coaches buyout to promote an assistant who was an OK head coach.
Where did you get that?

I believe it depends on both states laws in this case. Also, I believe the clause is financially breakable as well. Although I dont know how much schools would be willing to pay for an OC outside of his future contract

I don't believe it really does, he is still going to have an issue in the state of Arkansas either way and I don't think that changes. If I'm wrong then I would like to know. Have some legal background but no expert on this.

I think you are right considering that there almost always is a clause but if that is the case it must be something significant because Smart didn't seem to interested after getting some details from Bert.

One final side note: Enos' non-compete restriction states as follows:
"You covenant and agree not to accept employment in any coaching capacity, except for a head coach position, with any other SEC institution ... prior to the expiration date of the term and any mutually agreed upon extensions of the term."
Under Georgia's old non-compete law, this restriction would have been unenforceable for at least two reasons. First, by restricting Enos from working in any coaching capacity, it went beyond the role that he actually performed for Arkansas - offensive coordinator - and thus would have been held to be overly broad in terms of scope of activity. Second, because the covenant covers "any other SEC institution," it would have been viewed as a shifting provision in that the ultimate geographic scope could not be determined at the time of signing because the league (and thus the geographic scope) could have expanded. These arguments would likely fail under Georgia's new restrictive covenant statute, which went into effect on May 11, 2011. Thus, the change in the law deprives us of the potential spectacle of Georgia and Arkansas litigating (possibly in two different jurisdictions) over the hiring of an offensive coordinator.

Can you link where that is from?
Most of that is speculative and rightly so, because as far as I know, there has never been a lawsuit over a non-compete restriction in college coaching. The contract was formed and signed in Arkansas. Arkansas law should be the only law that really applies in this situation. The other states' law is not relevant because of this.

I don't know about Arkansas, but my understanding of LA law you must explicitly state the areas they are barred from competing (typically down to the parish and/or city) as well as the specific job roles. Even then, more often than not the provision is stricken due to precedence.

I'm not sure about the details on the contract for Enos but I'm guessing it is either not needed or very specific because of the Smart situation from last year.

I promise I'm not arguing a position in either direction. There just seemed to be discussion about LA law.

Oh, I gotcha. I'm actually really interested in learning more about the situation. I don't think this is black or white either. This is something they can be argued either way depending on the way you look at it. There is also so much guessing because we don't have the full contract of Enos in front of us.
