Bill Clark should be at the top of our list, period.
Then Norvell, even with his closet chock full of skeletons.
Maybe a Briles next.
People saying "it doesn't matter because Chad will be here another year even if we lose out" are mistaken.
Don't be stupid, this program starts hemhorraging money even worse than it already is in that instance. There's nothing that gets the attention of the board like the bottom line.

100%. After A&M curb stomps us. Attendance will be rock bottom.
We'll go below 40k for a SEC game if the losses keep coming.

What? Lane Kiffin coaches at FAU, right? He would absolutely take the job if offered.
Also, if he even hesitated to not take the job because he "wasn't offered" before, we don't want him. I figured dude was beyond acting like a child at this point in his life. Maybe not.

I want leach or art briles. Gimme someone proven and I mean proven to build something not somebody who inherited a program like fat frick

Art or Kendall Briles. Someone is going to be paying a lot of money for the younger one to be their head coach within 5 years so we might as well beat them to the punch.

I don't think we will go the up and comer route again. And that's if they have the nuts to actually fire Morris to begin with. They'll aim high with a proven winner type. They can't keep failing on these hires. They're literally torpedoing the program.

Just get art now. He is still young enough for a good 7 years, and he probably still has the fire. He can bring his son in as OC, and then we promote him.

Art Briles should be #1 on our list. Then Clark/norvell. No more up and comers first choice.
Art Briles is a proven fricking winner, and won at fricking BAYLOR! Has ties to Texas, and has won at the highest levels of football. Proven program builder. Coached a heisman winning QB, and should have had a team in the CFP.
Anybody not wanting Briles is a moron. He is the best coach not named meyer(he ain't coming here. He will only coach the bluest of bloods)
If we hire Briles there will be a small Twitter storm til Michigan hires meyer, and they turn their attention on him because he has the most recent bs.
He will be perfect cover for us to hire a God damn winner.

Morris was the first up and comer we hired since Nutt, and Hatfield before him if you can even count those two since they had deep ties to the program and state. Bert, Petrino, Ford, Holtz, and even JLS had NFL and/or major conference head coaching experience
The key is just not to be stupid about it, like we were with Morris. You have to look at track record, quality wins, the system they run, their program leadership style, ability to have an eye for assistant coaching talent, etc.
Hell, I'm not above looking in the FCS ranks for successful guys. That's what Kansas State did when they hired Chris Klieman from NDSU to replace Snyder. Knowing how to win is an invaluable characteristic.

What makes you think that HY and the BOT hire a "proven winner"?
Although I think the Muss hire might work out, he has only proven that he can win in the Mountain West.
He NBA HC career stunk only winning at a .425 clip.
They allowed Jerrah to be involved in the Morris hire which was BS. I don't trust those idiots to hire any legit coach.
Frank always fielded great assistant coaches with his teams and the BOT stayed the frick out of his business. Now they are running the show.
When the nuts are running the asylum, this is what you get.
And for everyone bringing Briles into the conversation, LOfrickingL, these integrity, uncommon MF's ain't hiring a coach that burned down a program. They can burn one down without his help.

Nope, that never happens
- Bert
- Merlin
- Saban to LSU

All of those were step ups. Mississippi state to Florida Michigan state to LSU he’ll even Wisconsin to us at the time. But we’re not poaching a sure nuff winner. If sparty was a top 10 team Saban wouldn’t have left. And if you aren’t that good in a power 5 conference we don’t want you anyway bert was a very weird exception to the rule

A coach from a smaller school with a winning record and not a losing record would be a start.
Posted on 9/24/19 at 8:58 am to ArHog
I agree which is what musselman was but you were just complaining because he only won in “the mountain west”.

Great point, should have never hired Petrino either since he had a .231 win percentage in the NFL
Looking at Professional records is one of the last important things when judging a head coach for college

What basketball coach from Arkansas could even sniff a head gig in the league?
The questions around Muss were organization driven, not his ability to coach. Good coaches get fired in the NBA pretty often.
Chad wasn't proven before he got here and it's showing.
