"Let's do this tonight! Nothing like a legendary night to remember. I'll tell all my grand pups one day about the 3 am walk off home run by Jared Gates." MJ4President just hours before it happened.

And if it is Kiffin he won't be able to keep it under wraps for long.

I am confused, is the plan to hire an average coach to get us to average so we can fire them in 3 hires to make a splash hire? 

I thought we just  did that.

Morris might be a good coach, but his name will not put butts in the seats. It doesn't get people excited.

We are introducing the new AD tomorrow morning at 10am so I'd be surprised if anything breaks before then.

Philip Seaton

Brace yourself for a guy who had 7 wins this season with three of those coming by 4 points or fewer to teams that had records of 3-9 or worse.

Hog N Bama

Wonder if Venables is wanting to move closer to home and ready to become a head coach. I would not exclude Venables yet

Took him 3 years to get SMU to 7 wins wonder how long it will take him in the SEC?

Was he coaching at a rebuild job at a school that has Ivy League entrance requirements and has been irrelevant since they received the death penalty?

Probably will break soon.

Norvell wouldn't have signed the extension if they didn't tell him no.

They would not have told him no if they had their man.

They were relevant two years before him for a long time under June Jones.

Calling All Hogs

It has been obvious to me that Morris would be the pick as soon as Gus went bust. They are making a big mistake hiring a coach with a losing record to replace Bielema.

This. His signature of his Memphis renewal says our search is over. Just announce it already!

Name may not but when he puts 40 ppg on the board the fans will come and love it.

That will be determined by talent CBB left.

Not hardly. Two years before him they were 5-7. June Jones went 36-43 there.

Need some norsberries in Dallas, Boca, Clemson. Surely we have hogvillians in those areas that can sniff out some scoop from the other side.

Spektre

Spit-balling, but I figure this is legit. My guess is Norvell was holding out on word for the Arkansas job before inking the extension. That extension has been in the works for a long time... they were just waiting on him to sign it.

He probably found out that he was no longer in the running and inked it after. If they're eliminating candidates, a decision is lurking.

The only hope we have is that Jerry buys him some ace assistants.

Chad Morris's win percentage at SMU is 39%

But disregard that, he's going to set the world on fire the moment he gets in the SEC.

That's a .455 win percentage. Morris is at .389. June Jones > Chad Morris.

well, Morris is 13-24 there. Looks like June Jones was 2x the coach.

Yeah a coach that is 13-24 in the AAC is going to set the SEC on fire 🤪

Smart people like our rich, educated AD, University staff, and BOT members (rolls eyes) wouldn't eliminate people until a coach is hired. Don't burn bridges unless you have to. that being said, if we don't get an announcement soon, I will doubt that our rich educated AD, university staff, and BOT trustees are smart at all.

Yep! He just needs to be in a tougher conference to show what he can do with 3 star recruits.( sarcasm )

Exactly. We better get a slam dunk hire if Norvell has been "eliminated".

come up with about 15 more excuses for his poor performance and I think you get a free set of steak knives! That's who we want as our new coach the one we have to explain away his past poor performance.

I am not absolutely against the guy, but with the possibilities out there this side of holtz and Horton we should be going bigger.
