Since it's behind a paywall can't see it but the paragraph you showed isn't a grade, it's just old news that's been out there for awhile. Nothing new there at all
Sounds like: we don’t know much but let’s try to drag him through the mud for kicks
Hopefully Lebby goes ahead and tells us to "pound sand" and "kick rocks" before the spring game****
They will bring up Briles until the day he’s not coaching here.
This was idiocy. Obviously we don't know the details, but hopefully Briles understands what's best for his daughter. grandkids and SIL is to stay in the background as much possible. Don't be seen around the team, etc.
Sorry, I didn't see it was ESPN plus.
At least give you the final grade.
Why is this a good fit?
Chris Low: After such a challenging season offensively, Mississippi State was starving for a more creative offense and, specifically, a more productive offense. Lebby has been synonymous with explosive offenses. Since becoming an offensive coordinator at the FBS level in 2019 for UCF, he has led all active O-coordinators in 50-plus point games (14). Oklahoma, Lebby's most recent employer, is ranked third nationally this season in scoring offense at 43.2 points per game. Lebby's track record in coaching quarterbacks is also a plus, with Mississippi State breaking in a new signal-caller in 2024. His previous experience at Ole Miss under Lane Kiffin also should help Lebby recruit in the state. His style of offense will attract talented skill players, and Lebby has worked with an array of coaches from different backgrounds and should be able to put together a well-rounded staff.What will be Lebby's biggest challenge?
Rittenberg: Lebby is a first-time head coach entering a challenging job in a cutthroat league. After contributing to Ole Miss' rise, he now needs to catch the Rebels and keep pace in the SEC. Lebby's offense should be a plus, both for recruits/transfers and the Mississippi State fans. But he will need a more comprehensive vision and plan to succeed in Starkville. His performance off the field will also be under the microscope. The son-in-law of disgraced former Baylor coach Art Briles, Lebby was reprimanded by Oklahomaearlier this year for having Briles on the field after a game in Sooners gear. Although Mississippi State fans widely celebrated his hire, there was some negative reaction due to his connection to Baylor and Briles.Grade: B
