This is smart. 2 reasons, one gives you a head start on picking your replacement, two, it doesn't give Arnette the chance to upset Ole Miss and potentially throwing a wrench in things, especially if you've already decided ZA is not the long term guy.

If you're afraid of someone pulling a rabbit out of a hat, you just take away the hat.

It's also a pretty good year to hire a coach. There won't be many major jobs open. Michigan State's open. Maybe Michigan if Harbaugh moves on, maybe Florida. The other openings for jobs will be in places that State can compete with: Syracuse, Indiana, etc.
