I'm telling y'all, they are going to that SMU well again!

He would be an improvement over the last asshole but I would be disappoint.

I hope you are wrong, but don't think Lashlee is anywhere near as bad as the Aggy dipshit. 

He would at least move his family here.'

I've pretty much resigned myself to the fact that Odom will be our next coach.  We could do worse, but could probably do a whole lot better.

[Thin Red Swine]

a 3-3 record does nothing in reducing his buyout percentage does it? hard to believe they're going to pay the guy all that money when that can change in a few weeks.

anything can happen i guess.

It does not. He started this season two games over the Mario Mendoza Yuri Bendova Line. So it would take three more losses AFTER Tennessee to reduce the nut. That's still the likely course of action.

Fucking Missouri is going to throw the game just to fuck with us

I'm ok bringing Odom. Weeks like it is he keeps both coordinators. If Petrino isn't retained, I like his oc at unlv and hope he would come. I like t-will a lot.

We definitely need a better special teams coach and s&c guy.

I originally assumed Odom would keep Petrino (he did have him hired at UNLV before A&M poached him) and Marion would take over as HC in Vegas.  Heard this morning that it was allegedly Marion who offered the $100K to the Holy Cross QB without authorization.  I wonder if that might prevent him from getting the job. 

I'd be great with Petrino staying as OC, but I think Marion's system is more idiot proof with respect to QBs, so he might be a better fit for us.

Would love for the current defensive staff to stay, but not sure their philosophies mesh as well with what Odom likes to run.  Plus, if their side of the ball keeps performing well Williams might be in line for an upgrade.

Yeah, I'm really thinking whoever said Petrino is chasing the Ghost of Lamar Jackson hit the nail on the head.

I mean, if he landed a guy like Arch Manning, he'd probably go right back to the Mallett days, but seems to have more of a blind spot on this.

I'm not sure we could protect that kind of QB with this OL.

[vegashog]

if it's odom, petrino will stay and who knows, another year of coaching and maybe, maybe, green can be decent. they will have to get the o-line fixed.

to me odom makes the most sense, but sense doesn't seem to come into play too often in arkansas football coaching searches. he's got experience both in the sec and at arkansas, will be inexpensive, and it appears that some of the money guys like him.

just my opinion, but things went to shit with pittman after odom wasn't around to hold his hand. i think he had more to do with what little success sam has had than given he's credit for.

 Of course Arkansas would hire Odom.  Missouri improved drastically when they fired him and hired the Dork.  Why not give Missouri another reason to want to own our ass.

5-5, 6-7, 6-7. then missouri got serious about nil. a very fair argument would be that nil has had way more to do with drinkwitz's success than his coaching ability.

Exactly.  They didn't improve at all until they started spending money. 

Odom went 4-8, 7-6, 8-5, 6-6.  Excluding his transition year his teams were better than Drinkwitz's pre-2023.

We never beat Odom.

We never beat Odom.

We never beat anyone.

I'm done worrying about football. I've got more to do than get upset over a program that will never be more than a 5 or 6 win (on average) program. It is what it is. Bring on basketball!

[BleedinRed]

I do want to put it out there that I don't hate Sam.  I don't get the nasty comments about his weight and the juvenile name calling.  

I appreciate what he inherited and I appreciate what he has and continues to try to do.  I think he has been a stand up guy and has given everything he has to make the team better and win football games.

However, just like with Nutt, he has a ceiling that isn't acceptable and its time to move on.

I wanted to come here and argue this point then I looked up the history. Now I just wanna start drinking.

Pretty close. He's a nice guy overall, but not getting it done.

I think the dislike started coming more when he said if he wasn't getting it done he would step down. He didn't and has held on for the payday.
