New DC Hot Board

[Trojanbulldog19]

We aren’t firing Hutzler… he was signed to a 4 year deal… we would have to pay him $3Million if we fired him

That is crazy that someone signed a first year coordinator to that kind of deal. But probably had to in order to convince somebody we wouldn't fire then after a year like we just did a bunch of our staff,

Or hired a veteran head coach who has experience building a program. Arnett was really clueless

This in spades. But can't change it now. We are stuck due to poor management from our admins.

Yeah I’m 38, so im probably in the minority for my age group. I’ll say this though, Mr CW, Jerry’s BiL made some of the best grilled/smoked chicken in Natchez. Biggest State fan I’ve ever met and he could tell a story nearly as good as Jerry.

Yep. Storytelling that way is sadly a lost art. I miss hearing stories told like that growing up. There's some good ones still some floating around the Delta.
Yazoo City also used to have some of the best smokehouses around. Still got a cpl good ones...that the lil burger shack on top of the hill in Lil Yazoo.

Paying Arnetts salary, paying Hutzlers salary. pretty soon you can’t afford to hire a veteran coach.

Hold up, if we’re still paying ZA… you think he’d be interested in being a DC again?

Hey...what about that guy that was DC at Memphis last year ?? We should call him

Whoever represented State and signed that contract should be fired immediately.

 

[Pookieray]

I know he wouldn't do it but, JWS could at least get us lined up correctly. Not much he could do with talent this year but at least get the team into position to make plays. He was a good motivator also.

 

[MrKotter]

If firing Hutzler is not an option because of his contract, then reassign him and promote Matt Barnes. At least Barnes had prior DC experience with Memphis.

He lost play calling responsibilities in year two with Memphis. He was a ****** defensive hire as well.

Is that true? So we're gonna have to dump the $8 mil on coaches we fired

That's insane. You're asking people to fork over hard earned cash to a program that makes these types of decisions.

Thinking outside the box. Do you necessarily have to get rid of Hutzler before you hire a new DC? Fire the special teams coach and make Hutzler your ST coach. Well, is that an option?

If you owe Hutzler 4 million no matter what, demote him to ST and outside linebackers. He will be the highest paid position coach in the history of the game, but it saves some money.

$3MM

$3MM

Is that counting 1 million already paid or the whole deal was a million a year for three years ? I’d still demote him but move him to st/ol

 

[InTheIttaBenaHotSun]

my personal favorite:
Tyler santucci

Will he bringing Wilson with him?

 

[Trojanbulldog19]

Terry Tate

Nobody will be stealing the coffee

 

[Rezdog]

Lebby should hire Venables as DC after he's fired this year.

So if Hutzler is let go, we are paying 2.5 million dollars a year for the next 2 years to him and Arnett. That would pay for a pretty good DC. As a friend suggested, can we get Bo McKinnis to help with these negotiations?
