Copied from an email going around:

Word on the street is that Jackie Sherrill is really pushing Joe Judge. It's definitely a gamble, but if it happens, it will not be as bad of hire as the casual fan thinks.

Saban and Bellechik love the guy. He's interviewing for the New York Giants head job today and until this opening, was expected to be at least an offensive coordinator for McCarthy in Dallas or stay with the Patriots.

A couple of insiders have said that Cohen's trip to Boston may have been to encourage Judge to come on under a new coach as OC/Asst. Head Coach, but that does not appear to be the case. The 37-year old has spent the last decade under Saban and Bellechik. The hangup seems to be whether the Giants decide to take a chance on him to lead.

Its strange that the New York Giants are so important to the MSU Coaching Search. Napier wants the Baylor job. If Rhule gets the Giants job as expected, Napier is headed to Baylor. If Judge (or someone else) gets the Giants job and Rhule stays at Baylor, Napier could be an option again.

That would be a good hire and the NFL experience would really help out with recruits. My concern for him is that he doesn't really have much college experience and it is a different animal than NFL coaching. Still, that would be a solid hire.

Wasn't he fired from USC for being drunk on the job?

I see it as high risk/high reward. Sometimes you have to gamble. The fanbase will love him and be excited. That has to be a part of this hire.

Matt Wyatt is pushing him on his podcast. Says he's one of the smartest guys he's ever been around. Also, Aaron Feld is probably coming on with him.

The biggest pro for Judge is that he's a State guy who wants the job. The transition period would be short, which is needed given the current state of the program.

I just hope, for your sake, that he doesn't become your version of Matt Luke. But he won't be because he seems like a competent coach.

Why do schools continue to let former coaches that were fired influence coaching hires?

This....Lol. Being a "Ole Miss or State" guy, is worth shite in this league. Gotta be able to run a college football program. Judge has no experience doing that. I wouldnt expect much from him first couple of years.

I don't think so. I think a lot of Ole Miss fans are underestimating what Luke did for the program. State today and Ole Miss when Luke took over are two drastically different situations.

Has a great name for sure and would be a solid hire. Played at MSU. Hope the giants hire him.

I hear what you're saying, but who knows? Maybe, just maybe, he turns out to be State's version of Ed Orgeron.
And now you have me wondering how Michigan would be doing if ol' Les Miles was coaching there. I have a feeling that Bama wouldn't have let Michigan across the fifty yard line in the Citrus Bowl if Miles had been coaching Michigan.
