Marcello reporting Spurrier and Hollingshead are out
- Thread starter Duke Humphrey
- Start date
This offense certainly could improve. Im disappointed it's all getting blown up but it might be good. I thought Arnett might leave it the same tho or at least not totally change it. Typically coaches bring in people that they know or feel comfortable with, relationships made thru their career. Change is never certain tho. I have seen a lot of crappy coaches come and go here. Usually very unsuccessfully
Don’t bring common sense to this discussion
Supposedly turner might be coming back. Given then guys he put in the nfl I'd be okay with that.
Some guys are no longer going to fit no matter what we do. There is no plug and play Mike Leach replacement out there. Whoever we get is going to run a much different system even if it still features some of the familiar concepts of the Air Raid. Things like the wide OL splits, for example, were a Leach specialty that no one else does.
Hey, if it's an improvement I will be happy. We all know Arnett has a big pair and he is letting them drag. I am a State fan first.
Because the consensus was that CZA was hired to ease the transition so not to expect a whole lot of changes. I did expect a couple or so but we're looking at wholesale changes here so the company line by the so called experts was complete BS. I'm gonna agree w/sizzle. If there were going to be mass changes, why didn't we conduct a search and hire the best person for the job instead of taking the easy way out? Late in the process for some of these guys to have something else lined up.
I’m hearing the OC is going to be Riley from TCU...announced the day after the NC game…
Modified Air Raid guy with ties to the Leach coaching tree.
Could be BS, but I’d be happy with it.

That is probably the result of not having an AD in place. an experienced AD who has been around programs being built and rebuilt would probably be guiding these moves with some advice or guard rails.
as you stated, either go with continuity or have a real search.
You would think Riley would stay put at TCU waiting on his call for a HC job. Just don't see him as a possibility.
He was named HC just a couple of days before signing day. It wasn’t done to necessarily keep a coaching staff together as much as it was to keep a signing class in tact.
Why is it so hard for you to get past what was said three weeks ago? That was 21 news cycles ago.
You act like a few coaching changes means MSU is going to the wishbone.
Turnover is the norm in college football. It doesn’t mean a complete overhaul is imminent.
What was so special about this offense that some staff turnover will hurt?
Brady said Gronk is coming too???
I'm in this camp too.... I'm concerned about wholesale changes after the moves we made but, I'm also skeptical that CZA really makes wholesale changes because it isn't in his best short term interest. Changing a few coaches doesn't necessarily mean we're throwing out a system it can just mean we're getting different guys to run it. There are obviously going to be some changes but I don't expect them to be as great as some suggest.
