You are the AD. What is your message to Lebby in your post-season meeting?....

Mine would depend on his plan for his DC. If he has decided to move on from Hutz I would want to know what his plan for replacing him was but be a little more conciliatory about a year 3 and beyond. If he has decided to stick with Hutzler I would let him know that as HC he can make that call but in doing so his job is also on the line next year if we see anything close to what we had this year.

I hope Lebby can right the ship but right now the vibe is just not there. This is the second worst year one vibe I have every seen with last season being the worst.

I would tell him that whoever hired him to be a first time head coach without making sure he was going to get an experienced DC is a 17ing moron, and whoever approved a four year guarantee for Hutzler should be investigated for fraud, because surely they took a kickback to give a guaranteed salary like that to a completely unqualified DC. I'd tell him whoever hired him appeared to want him to fail and so was giving him enough rope to do stupid things, but that if he wants to make it to year three, he better stop taking the opportunity to do stupid stuff just because his dumbass of a boss keeps offering it to him.

Plastic man needs to tell them both unacceptable and find experience. First selmon first then hire an AD that understands you need experience in the SEC if you want to survive. New AD gets to tell Lebby get it right next year to 6 wins or you are done ain't got time for 2-10 3-9 4-8 BS. Any sec team should go 4-8 minimum every year otherwise you ain't worth being in the SEC

I can't wait to see what this board does when Lebby is given his year extension at the end of the season. It's tradition at MSU to do that.

How in the blue hell could you possibly view this year as being better than last year? Not a single good thing or glimmer of hope has happened anywhere.

People have lost their damn minds about Arnett and last year. If I knew then what I know now, I would have said we should have kept Arnett. This year would have probably been 3-9 or 4-8, but we'd be in much better position to fire everyone and start over next year instead of being locked into 3 more years paying these clowns. Only years remotely close to the unmitigated disaster in my memory this season are 2002 and 1988.

Get your coaches on the recruiting trail and make sure they are high profile. Talking to moms and dads, coaches, girlfriends. Going to basketball games, awards ceremonies etc

You have to demote Hutzler and hire a DC with Power 5 experience. Suck it up and make the call. No more friend hires. If you don’t want to fire him provide the receipts as to why I should not do it myself.

This is correct. Fire Z, staff and perhaps pick off Salmon too.

After we both sat down together, I wouldn’t say anything at first. Then I’d let out a silent but deadly fart, and ask him if he **** his pants, again.
