The steroid abuse and NCAA investigation wig me out personally. He knew the deal with Saunders IMO. And I was formerly one of his biggest supporters when it looked like he was going to go 11-2 in year 2 @ ULL before the head scratching losses at the end of the season...
That said, he was so damn good here before in his former role, and has so much actual love for MSU(which IMO is different than your average recruiting pitch), I'd have to think long and hard about offering him the WR coach position.
His job down there was also to some extent contingent on surrounding schools primarily USM being a dumpster fire. He can be the best recruiter around and 80% of the 2nd tier talent in MS still isn't going to ULL without extenuating circumstances.
