About 22 games too late

Bad hire and to think he will be getting about $10M buyout. Couple that with the $11M they are still paying to Bret and I’d say it’s pretty much a dumpster fire!

It’s ok

Jerry has two pockets.

Mullerns to Arkansas.

And the Walton and Tyson clans have more than that.

I don't know if you can find a worse two year stretch in MSU's football history. Probably have to go back to the 1960s.

So I believe their hope is for Gus to lose to Georgia and Bama and get him back. He does have some strained relationships there but I believe that is their first choice. My guess is if that doesn’t work they go after Norvell. Just a hunch. But yeah I think Jerry will be very “involved”.

Two words for you on the next head coach: Gig itty

 

[messageboardsuperhero]

Chad Morris’s tenure at Arkansas:

2-0 record against FCS teams
2-4 record against G5 teams
0-14 record against Power 5 teams

He has a legitimate case to be considered the worst hire in modern SEC football history.

Arkansas thinks they are Bama in Football & Kentucky in Basketball,

but they are actually Kentucky in Football & Bama in Basketball.

Stolen from the twitters but TRUTH

They supposedly stopped paying Bret last month since he wasnt “actively looking“. He’s an assistant at New England patriots making the minimum from what I understand.

This feels like a good landing spot for our old friend Reverend Freeze

 

[PBRME]

Guess we’ll see if Norvell skeleton in closet rumors are true.

 

[patdog]

Good lord. That record makes Sylvester Croom look like Bear Bryant.

 

[BossDawg78]

Moorhead to Arky!1!!

Might as well keep the tradition going.

Based on quick Google search:

1987 and 1988, Rockey Felker
5-17 overall, 1-12 SEC
outscored 591-341

2002 and 2003, Jackie Sherrill
5-19 overall, 1-15 SEC
outscored 810-452
* in 2003, we lost by an average of 26.3

2005 and 2006, Sylvester Croom
6-17 overall, 2-14 SEC
outscored 568-374

I graduated from Mississippi State in 1990, so I remember each of these seasons fairly well. Just thinking about any one of those seasons is like a kick in the nuts.

However, the absolute worst two-year stretch belongs to:

1967 and 1968, Charles Shira
1-17-2 overall, 0-10-1 SEC
outscored 519-198
* in 1967, we scored 49 total points in 10 games (shutout 4 times)

But we loved shira enough to name the Fieldhouse for him

but they are actually Kentucky in Football & Bama in Basketball.

Just because we want a coach who doesn’t get blown out by Western Kentucky and San Jose State? No one is expecting 10 wins.

I do think Musselman will end up being better than Anderson with a possible top 10 class in 2020.
