New Mexico State 31 - 10 Auburn FINAL

Does Jerry love to win or hate to lose?

If we lose a game but no one watches did we even lose?

I was repulsed by the thought of hiring Barry Odom, but he has done one helluva job at UNLV.

Hire Jerry Kill?

We could do worse. He's pretty much won everywhere he's been. Kind of surprised he hasn't already had a shot at a P5 already. Only thing I can figure is maybe it has something to do with his previous health issues.

Jerry Kill is 1000x the coach Pittman is

Agreed! I guess somebody REALLY doesn't care for ol' Jerry though because they were extremely quick with the down vote just because I said we could do worse.

let's hire someone young and hungry and keep rolling the dice till we figure it out....hiring retread after retread and guy headed to retirement after guy headed to retirement is a terrible plan.

Yes…..hire and and fire a new “up and comer” every 4 years. That’ll be better. I see we didn’t learn anything from the Chad Morris years.

We need an established, experienced head coach. Not an up and comer. This isn’t the place for on the job training

Chad wasn't an up and comer, he was less than stellar at SMU and was sold on his ability to recruit Texas.

He had Traylor who is being sold on his ability to recruit Texas.

Their best recruits came from everywhere but Texas.

The old timers fail to see how big of a waste of time and resources is to try and rely on Texas. Even going all the way back to Broyles you will find that Arkansas only pulled from Texas talent deemed by Texas HS coaches to be on Arkansas level this level is below all Texas schools and Oklahoma schools in their eyes.

We need a coach who works hard and is obsessed with winning because he hates losing. Bert, Chad, and Pittman were hired to reach plateaus lower than winning or plateaus that did not involve winning. That's why we are where we are. Chad was the only one not to reach his plateau because Texas doesn't give a shite about Arkansas or Texans coaching at Arkansas.

know you’re joking, but there’s literally people on the board suggesting we get Barry Odom after he was here and we had terrible defenses, but he leaves and they become the best defense we’ve had since before he was here lol

I almost used him as the example but I thought I'd throw someone with better and more experience in as an example of how the retiree route is not the way to go....
