Has Arnett considered an eye patch on home visits?

There is a man available, who already knows the SEC West, and State is undefeated in games he has been on the sideline.



Not to mention the potato ag science would rocket to top 10 in the nation.

Signing class should never be the reason. But to fire a coach just when he is getting his feet wet is a bad look. And a bad move to be honest. Give the guy a chance to figure it out. Otherwise who wants the job? Just to get fired after one damned year. State fans are delusional.


Sometimes you can tell pretty quick when it’s not gonna work. He’s got a senior heavy team that will probably be even worse next year. This is also a terrible time in the landscape of CFB to not be any good.

My thing is I can’t imagine this new AD is willing to spend his entire tenure rebuilding the football program because of a guy he didn’t hire. Sometimes you just gotta cut your losses and get out before it gets worse.

Having said that, State is only 3-3. If Arnett somehow gets to 6-6 he will be back. 5-7 and he might be, just depends. If he goes 4-8 or 3-9 then no way you can give this a Year 2.

He's bringing his recruiting coordinator with him as well.

Will Rogers wasn't making a Pro team even if Leach was still coaching.

His stats are only there because of the system he played in before this year.

MSU should be trending much better than they are currently. Arnett should have had the interim tag. Your AD sucks. Plain and simple as that. He went with a budget hire and refuses to really push the NIL. You have your version of Pete Boone. The sooner you change ADs, the better.

Huh? Selmon is pushing NIL much more than Cohen.

He may be pushing it but nowhere near enough.

I think you are a good poster but you are uninformed about this topic.

What did I say incorrectly? Their AD sucks. Stricklin had that place booming and showed what a decent AD can accomplish there.

Arguing over the Internet is pointless. Most MSU fans including myself think he is doing a fine job so far. He was put into a pretty odd position starting off. Now if he doesn't fire Arnett after this season then many will change their opinion including myself.

He has only held this position for what...10 months? Little early to say he should be fired.

Arnett has the classic look of a guy in way over his head and trying to fake it. In his case he pulls out this fake stoicism when things are going to shite during a game trying appear as if he is in control when it really comes across as "I have no fricking idea how to fix this and I'm trying not to cry."

It'll be interesting to see if State can hold on to their current recruits. I know OM wants Lewis, Burnside and Hibbler. Burnside is a priority.

He completely destroyed Mike Leach's offense. Arnett may be a solid DC, but he has no business coaching an offense. Will Rogers draft stock has tanked. I honestly feel bad for him.


What’s weird is our offense is performing close to what it did last year when you look at games against the same opponents

It’s our defense that is awful

Rebuild to what exactly?



13 consecutive bowl game streak that’s in jeopardy this season along with several 8-9 win seasons and the occasional 10 win season that was started under Mullen. Our down years were 6-6 while good years were 8-10 wins

We are staring down the barrel at the return of 4-8 (1-7) with the occasional 7-5 team that we saw from 2001-2009
