re: So Briles stays at Arkansas

but the newly minted Miss State coach just fired his whole offensive staff in anticipation of Briles taking over the offense.

First.. no. The whole offense staff was not fired.

Second… you are really surprised a new coach makes changes in the staff?

We cannot continue to run the offense as it was. The guy that steered the air raid ship is gone. What we supposed to do? Just promote a position coach to take over the entire offense and expect it to run like Leach ran it?

That’s a stupid assumption.

The offense is going to have to change no matter who lands at the OC position. So no.. we didn’t fire the entire staff in mere anticipation of a possible hire.
