Steve Robertson has reported that Mike Leach is a the dark horse candidate for the HC position. Apparently Cohen has a fascination with him.

If we hire Mike Leach for some reason, I am done with Mississippi State football for life and will welcome the firing of Cohen.

I see skip holtz has entered the picture. At this point, we better take that.

I mean, yeah. But in my opinion (which doesn’t mean much in the grand scheme of things) we need to be going after a young guy with a long career ahead of him. Not a nut job who shares memes on his twitter daily. He has been described as a “ticking time bomb of embarrassment”, and the absolute last thing that Mississippi State needs is a large scale embarrassment after this shite show of a coaching hire.

Given who I feel are realistic candidates for a hire, I think Skip Holtz might be my favorite.

State is probably hiring Sark. Which I wonder how the rivalry would be with ole miss. Sarkisian at State and Kiffen at Ole miss.

It’s going to be Sarkisian...

Burt Stare was wrong on ED. Claims Cohen and Napier were meeting today but I doubt it. At this point Sark is our best bet and I’m sure he feels he has a lot to prove.

The EB is going to be a slugfest with these coaches.

Twitter is pouring out we offered 4 year 14 mil. Deal with over 5 mil. for staff however Sark is wanting more for his staff and Cohen doesn’t want to budge. We will find out soon enough.

Do Kiffin and Sark hate each other? I assumed they were friendly.

Just think though... these two guys know each other and are both pretty competitive. That’s going to make recruiting interesting and just like two brothers competing they are going to want to out do the other that much more. I’m not saying it will be ugly, but definitely not lose any intensity which seems to have peaked these past few EB’s. I mean... Dak’s OT win, and Piss and miss are going to be hard to beat.

I’m horrified at the thought of Leach not putting too much care into defense. Especially in the SEC West.

And if he wins, I'll expect you to be done with football until our next hire.
