and State fans should start paying attention to Troy games.

Jon Sumrall

started career at Kentucky
spent some time at Tulane and Ole Miss before returning to Kentucky as co-DC

12-2 at Troy in his first season
7-2 this year and poised to win the Fun Belt

What kind of contract did Arnett get?
What is the buyout?

Sumrall with Troy would be a huge risk.
I would go after Chadwell.

So expect him to get a contract extension.

Sumrall has higher hopes than State. Dude is one of the next super stars.

Peanuts....

“Arnett got a four-year deal that pays $3 million a year. His buyout calls for him to get 50 percent of the remaining amount on the contract. That means Mississippi State would owe Arnett $4.5 million over three years if it fired him after this season. But unlike Napier’s deal, Arnett’s also includes a duty to mitigate.”

Until state fixes NIL none of these hot names are going to waste their chance on state

Yeah that payday will be nice but if you’re playing with a stacked deck it’s your only payday.

Firing someone after a year means you will need to give the next coach a Jimbo sized buyout deal. Well, maybe not that big.

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.

So he gets somewhere around...

2023 $3.0m
2024 $1.5m
2025 $1.5m
2026 $1.5m
-----
total $7.5m

...for coaching one year. Sign me up.

I don't agree about Sumrall being a risk. That guy has it and is going to be a hell of a coach. Honestly if I'm him I think I'd wait for UK to open up (feels like Stoops will head to Iowa when Ferentz retires). The Wildcats I think would jump on him, and to me that's a better job.

Why is State firing Arnett after one season when everyone knows the transition from air raid takes time.

Why even hire in the first place
