Not the change the topic but here is an anonymous quote from an SEC coach on the job opening:
Athalon Sports Link
So to answer the questions on if we could have hired more qualified coaches the answer is yes.. but no roll the dice up and coming coach is worth a 6 or 7 year contract. And in MS the longest contract legally allowed is 4 years, so I don’t know if we could have offered anything they needed to come.
quote:
”There were some really qualified coaches who wanted that job, but only with a significant commitment to security. I’m talking six or seven years of commitment. I truly believe that’s why Matt (Luke) was retained. It’s easy to move on from him once it hits rock bottom. And I don't say that lightly because I really enjoy Matt. He’s a good guy who’s in an untenable situation."

I don’t care what anyone says or how they try to spin it there, this is dead program walking. At least for a couple of years. They lost an elite quarterback and receiver because they didn’t want to hang around for the NCAA fallout, and they’re still dealing with that on the road in recruiting. Hey, there’s no honor among thieves in recruiting. The big thing right now is what happens with the NCAA. Once that gets resolved, you at least have a plan.
I see Dan Mullen is still butthurt
