Did I dream up that he met with moorehead during the summer?

 

[Willow Grove Dawg]

Create an additional position in the recruiting office immediately! We cannot afford for him to be added to the Ole Miss staff after they fire the entire defensive staff.

 

[Duke Humphrey]

I think right after Joe got the job

Did I dream up that he met with moorehead during the summer?

But Tony wanted to stay a HC and thought he had momentum after they beat Alcorn. From what I heard, Joe and Tony got alone fine, and Joe wanted him to join the staff.

If we don’t get him, ole miss will. Gotta make him a priority.

...unless Dan comes after him

 

[MSUDawgFan86]

We have to have a few hundred thousand lying around. Sign the man now!

Odds are that Coach Hughes would prefer to stay in the Mississippi Retirement system assuming all else is close to equal

That program has been through so many head coaches in recent years, no way they can get anybody respectable there. Having had a working relationship w/ a lot of their alums, I've seen that they have way "too many chiefs and not enough indians". They constantly bicker and form little groups that try to run the program and all work against each other. Watch now, they'll be divided on a new coach and the losing group will start right away to sabotage the new coach, happens to every one them.

Maybe Hopson would take it...Mississippi Southern fans would probably be ok with it and he did a helluva job at Alcorn and the JSU folk might accept him as a compromise coarch. Besides he could commute from Vicksburg.

Strange. They were way down when he took over and it looked like he may have been beginning to turn it around. He's won 6 of his last 11 games, with 2 of the losses to I-A schools, they'll be favored in their next 2 games, and the one they're underdogs to is Alcorn who he beat last year. Why fire him now? That school has major leadership issues.

Was it comegy that took them to several division titles and they Mcelwain'ed him?
