Who is on your short list?

[Awwhellnaw]

Since it seems 99% of the message boards feel that Moorhead was I bad hire and we should move on at some point in the near future, who do we pursue? I’ve seen a lot of FARE MOORHEAD threads but no names throw out (besides Freeze). Who or what would you like to see us go after?

 

[Msubulldogfan1]

Billy Napier

 

[Clarence Boddicker]

I’ll say it. I’m still on the Hudspeth train. I think he’s the best coach that none of our fans understand that we need. He’s our Hugh Freeze....he’s the perfect fit. Without the nonsense.

 

[bruiser.sixpack]

Jack Napier’s brother?

Whomever would promise not to implement anything but Mullen’s offense.

Ask him who his DC would be and if he says he changes every year and he doesn’t recruit, we’ve found our guy.

With the very large caveat that I don't know who all is out there, strengths and weaknesses of those that are, and who may be some up and coming talents, I'll offer some off-the-cuff ideas:

Joey Freshwater
Neal Brown

 

[civildawg88]

Bill Clark or Ryan day off the top of my head but I haven’t even researched anyone

 

[615dawg]

He's also a giant POS. Character matters.

 

[triton28]

Makes too much sense. Took **** hole UL to their first bowl in 40 years and won consistently there. The stuff with Saunders was too much to overcome but the guy is an amazing recruiter and head coach and loves MSU. That said, it will never happen.

 

[MSUCE99]

Les Miles is a national championship-winning coach who averaged something like 10 wins a season at LSU and believes in #RTGDF and #AlwaysRunNeverPass. He's also very entertaining.

Just an idea.

 

[Awwhellnaw]

Who? Hud? If so, could you enlighten the audience as to why he’s a giant POS?

 

[ronpolk]

Obvious choice - Greg Knox**

I’d probably give whoever the OC at Ohio state is a call. Hud, Charlie strong, joey freshwater (as much as I hate to say it), southern miss old coach that is now the OC for Tampa,

 

[Dr. Funke.sixpack]

Monken(sp?), Bill Clark, Brown from Troy.

Ewwwwwwwww. GTFO

Y'all do realize that Neal Brown would run an air-raid, right?

 

[MSUDawgFan86]

Who cares? Fitzgerald’s non-passing *** is gone after this season.

 

[MSUDawgFan86]

Mike Norvell, Lane Kiffin, Neal Brown, Todd Monken, Scott Satterfield, and Bill Clark. All of those guys can coach. Billy Napier is intriguing also. I liked the plays his team ran against us. I thought they showed some creativity. Contrary to what Joel T said tonight on Thunder and Lightning, they would all come. It’s a good power 5 job that pays way more than they make. This is not late 80s MSU.

Agreed most of them would come.

Hypothetically, what happens if one of them comes in 2019 and goes 3-9? What happens then?

You give them time. It’s not the same situation as Joe Mo coming in this season and 17ing everything up. This was a ready made winning team that anyone that can fog a mirror could win 9 games with. Everybody on that list up there could do better.

 

[PhredPhantom]

If we can put up with him for about 3 more years, there’s a good chance that Mullen may be looking for a job again. Not sayin’ that I necessarily want him back, though.

That ship has sailed

 

[Dawg1976]

Waste of energy. We can lose out and he won't be fired this year.

 

[thatsbaseball]

Oh my....

 

[OneParticularHarbor]

If you guys hire Monken

Monken(sp?), Bill Clark, Brown from Troy.

If you guys hire Monken, I’ll buy a cowbell. I got to know him and his family in Hattiesburg a bit. Good dude, great coach, great family.

 

[tatedog]

This is Norvell's third year at Memphis and looks like easily his worst team. That's not a great sign. I think Kiffin likes it at FAU... the expectations are pretty low, hot women everywhere, and they let him troll as much as he wants.

He lost his senior quarterback and several players from last years 10 win team. Mullen went 6-6 in year 3.

 

[tatedog]

Fair enough, but Mullen in year 3 behind Croom is a far different circumstance from Norvell following Fuente, arguably the best coach in Memphis' history. His defenses have found ways to make very average offensive teams look like 1996 Florida on a regular basis as well.

 

[shotgunDawg]

Billy Napier

Why?

What has he done?

Feels like you're just throwing out a name you heard.

MSU needs a running, physical dickhead as a coach.

 

[MSUDawgFan86]

Waste of energy. We can lose out and he won't be fired this year.

That is probably true. If that happens and he is kept I’m 17ing done permanently. Then I don’t really care what happens. It can all go to hell. I survived the end of Jackie and Croom but if Moorhead takes the best collection of talent we’ve ever had and goes 3-9 it will break me as a fan. You should be able to run trap every play and win 6.

 

[shotgunDawg]

He's also a giant POS. Character matters.

No it doesn't. All the good SEC coaches are POS. We've got to get rid of this

 

[shotgunDawg]

Lane isn't the right fit. Throws too much and is immature.

 

[shotgunDawg]

Les Miles is a national championship-winning coach who averaged something like 10 wins a season at LSU and believes in #RTGDF and #AlwaysRunNeverPass. He's also very entertaining.

Just an idea.

If Les has been studying up on a power spread offense, I would consider this

 

[shotgunDawg]

Scott Satterfield

Isn't Satterfield a ground and pound coach?

Not sure why this is down voted. I think Miles would be 5-0 with this team right now. Then again, half the coaches in the Sun Belt would be 5-0 with them too.

 

[Shamoan]

Plus, kiffin would roll in, talk **** about Starkville, and frick all your girlfriends. No thanks.

 

[TBone.sixpack]

Hugh Freeze**

 

[TheStateUofMS]

Hud for sure. He's at least average and would probably be around Mullen's level. He loves to recruit though, so there's that difference even if he's a notch below Mullen as a HC.

Offense would be similar to Mullen's as well, which WORKS for us.
