Rank our head coaches across the sports

[dawgstudent]

We can do big 3 plus soccer, softball, women's basketball.

1. Jans
2. Purcell
3. Armstrong (Soccer)
4. Ricketts
5. Lemonis
6. Arnett

4-6 - put them in a hat.

 

[patdog]

Can't argue with any of those. Still hoping Arnett can get it turned around, but if we don't see some improvement Saturday, my already low confidence will take a hit.

 

[Bullldawg78]

This is the correct order, however if you include golf, tennis and track and field both men's and women's, I think Arnett falls lower!

 

[GloryDawg]

Arnett has not had a full season yet. I wait until then but as of right now the Bucket Sitter needs to be fired.

Top 3, yes. I don't know who Ricketts is so no argument here on the bottom 3.

Olympus: Lemonis (Why should a National Championship winning coach be ranked with mere mortals? **)

Mortals
1 Jans
2 Purcell
3 Armstrong
4 Ricketts
5 Arnett

** That said — of course coaches get judged on teams’ performances— so there are a bunch of Six Packers who don’t believe in god **

I know you're joking but yeah, I think I'm going with the national title winner until proven otherwise. His crootin is in question, for sure........but during 2019 we were saying the same things about Lemon that we are currently saying about Jans.

 

[TXDawg.sixpack]

Gotta add Julie Darty Dennis (Volleyball) in there. I'd put her at 3rd. She's turned the program around QUICKLY!

 

[SteelCurtain74]

Based on history I would move Armstrong to first and move Jans and Purcell down one spot. After last night's draw, it was the first time in school history that our soccer program had 5 game conference unbeaten streak. Add to that we have won the Magnolia Cup 4 years in a row, we beat Kentucky at Kentucky for the first time since 2004 and for the 3rd time ever, and we are potentially fighting for a national seed in the NCAA tournament What he has done for our program is unprecedented. In the case of men's and women's basketball, there was a track record of success. On a side not, Maddy Anderson will be missed when she leaves after this year. She has played a huge part in our team's success.

I'll need a sliding scale.

 

[knock him out john]

ran into Vic Schafer in Taste a couple of weeks ago. I told him he was the best coach on campus back in the day.
He seemed to appreciate it.

What’s wrong with ricketts

 

[ZombieKissinger]

I see major flaws in all of them, and I have none of their flaws

Trust me, you don’t want it. Make sure you are getting plenty vitamin D!

Why was Vic back in Starkville? Trying to poach players, or begging for his job back?

Did anyone end up buying Vic’s house out towards the msu golf course? I know he was about finished building it when he took the Texas job. I just wonder who else in Starkville could afford a mansion besides one of the coaches

I think Vic still owns the Starkville house.

 

[Dawgg]

1. Jans - feels like we’re back to an annual tourney team

2. Armstrong - it’s been a slow burn, but soccer has quietly become a solid program. Get some scorers and we’ll be dangerous.

3. Purcell - I think this year will tell us a lot more about where the program is headed.

4. Lemonis - what the 17?, Chris. Gets the nod over Ricketts and Darty because of the NC. Crazy two years ago, he’s easily #1.

5. Darty-Dennis - the program is respectable and was within an eyelash of winning the SEC a couple of seasons of ago, but has regressed since.

6. Ricketts - I’m hoping she turns it around. Last season was kind of a disaster.

7. Arnett - hopefully, I’m wrong.

Vic still owns his dream house and has bought more hunting land in Winston Co.

I think Dan Marino is renting it.

I don't throw food away. I clean my plate and then decide if I want another or not.
