What does the Pack think about

[greenbean.sixpack]

Clay Helton?

I've seen Tom Herman's, Gus', Dan's and Chadwell's name mentioned.

It looks like Clay had similar success as Herman.

We have to get some with HC experience.

 

[ChinaDogSunflower]

No thanks. Leipold or Chadwell

 

[greenbean.sixpack]

No thanks. Leipold or Chadwell

Probably gonna take $6 mil or more for Chadwell. Don’t know if our leadership is prepared for that.

 

[Rupert Jenkins]

Do you think we can buy Chadwells contract out ? Liberty is paying 4 mill a year. Think about it. We coulda hired him instead of Arnett but not now

 

[Drebin]

Clay Helton? Are you shltting me?

 

[blitz2Win]

Clay Helton? Are you shltting me?

Almost every name mentioned leaves this staff in the dust.

 

[StumpNewGround]

No thanks. Leipold or Chadwell

Correct answer. And spend whatever it takes. Oklahoma and Texas coming. The days of trying to do it on the cheap are over. Make Leipold tell you no. Period.

Out of that group I take Gus

Gus is probably going to be the candidate at Arkansas.

Maybe not. This is the SEC. If they aren't prepared to take athletics seriously, MSU needs better leadership.

 

[TXDawg.sixpack]

Hell no to Gus

What about Tulane’s coach? Thats my favorite right now. Think he’d be a good fit at MSU/Starkville.

 

[GloryDawg]

Go for Petersen.

 

[ChinaDogSunflower]

Gus is probably going to be the candidate at Arkansas.

That's a good thing

 

[bully12]

No thanks. Leipold or Chadwell

Chadwell - no experience at this level, but I would take him.
Leipold - we would have to throw Saban $$ at him to get him to even answer the phone.

 

[Drebin]

Almost every name mentioned leaves this staff in the dust.

You don't hire a guy because he's better than the guy you're firing. You hire a guy to win football games.

 

[OG Goat Holder]

They walk among us

 

[ChinaDogSunflower]

Chadwell - no experience at this level, but I would take him.
Leipold - we would have to throw Saban $$ at him to get him to even answer the phone.

Leipold - Why would we have to throw Saban money at Leipold? He could come to Starkvegas and enjoy the milder winters until the Badger comes calling him home, if they ever do. Fickell should do well there

Chadwell - True. But he's been a winner everywhere he's been.

 

[Will Rogers.sixpack]

What does Clay Helton do offensively and defensively that might be different than what the upper echelon of the SEC sees every week, except with more talent?

 

[dog99walker]

If y’all are going to throw out names, why not mention Brian Johnson who is OC with the Eagles. He was here with Mullen.

 

[8dog]

Out of that group I take Gus

Gus is awful. I get the sense Chadwell may be at Liberty a while. I think he is very faith driven. Just a hunch.

 

[Rupert Jenkins]

Liepold is on a 5 mill contract for 7 years. You would have to buy his contract out plus pay him at least 6 maybe 7 mill. Chadwell just signed a 4 mill a year contract at Liberty. Efited to add also a 7 year contract. We could surely give him 5 or 6 to come to an SEC job but how much is his buyout ? The salary is doable. The buy out probly not.

Let me say this again.

Oklahoma and Texas are coming.

The days of MSU trying to get by on the cheap are OVER

Be a man and make the fing decision to compete or don’t and get the f out of the conference. Period.

Winning costs money. And lots of it.

 

[Rupert Jenkins]

I can promise this school ain't paying Zach 4 mill to go away, 25 mill buyout and then 6 a year for a coach. I'm not sure how a buyout works from another school

 

[StumpNewGround]

Then you have your answer

 

[Dawgbone33]

500+ yds / gm offense. Say that again. Then say it again.

Zach will get a new DC job & that will lower the total he’s owed to zero

Who the 17 is that?

 

[tenureplan]

Who the 17 is that?

Idk but he looks like a fit. DS approves

 

[UpTheMiddlex3Punt]

Bring Chris Petersen out of retirement

 

[Mjoelner]

Who the 17 is that?

I thought it was Lemonis when I first saw it. LOL

 

[Mjoelner]

Out of all the names, all of the salaries, all of the experience, Tom Herman is probably the correct answer.

 

[Bobby Ricigliano]

Probably gonna take $6 mil or more for Chadwell. Don’t know if our leadership is prepared for that.

Weren’t we paying Leach & Mullen ~$5MM/yr?

$6MM/yr is not a problem. As others have pointed out, a buyout might be.

 

[Will Rogers.sixpack]

Who cares if we spend 6 million a year on a head coach, if he’s going to run a basic common scheme on both sides of the ball that everyone sees week in and week out except with more talent. That’s like having your Mercedes-Benz SUV parked outside your 1980 single wide trailer.

 

[greenbean.sixpack]

Weren’t we paying Leach & Mullen ~$5MM/yr?

$6MM/yr is not a problem. As others have pointed out, a buyout might be.

We'd have to buy out our current staff and buy out the contract of the coach we are hiring, then pay him $6mi +/year.

 

[Bobby Ricigliano]

Were you rebutting me?

 

[StumpNewGround]

We'd have to buy out our current staff and buy out the contract of the coach we are hiring, then pay him $6mi +/year.

1. What are the current staff numbers. If memory serves, we’re fairly lowball there.
2. Big Leo set aside a 100 mil fund specifically for all this ********. So, again, how bad do you want to win.

 

[Drebin]

We'd have to buy out our current staff and buy out the contract of the coach we are hiring, then pay him $6mi +/year.

This is a non issue.

 

[StumpNewGround]

What I like in this thread is we got some guys that know the landscape that are worldly in their view as my elders used to say.

It’s the only thing that gives me hope
