Think he’s rubbed some folks the wrong way over the last 2 or 3 years. The rah-rah stuff works well until it doesn’t.

The steroid abuse and NCAA investigation wig me out personally. He knew the deal with Saunders IMO. And I was formerly one of his biggest supporters when it looked like he was going to go 11-2 in year 2 @ ULL before the head scratching losses at the end of the season...

That said, he was so damn good here before in his former role, and has so much actual love for MSU(which IMO is different than your average recruiting pitch), I'd have to think long and hard about offering him the WR coach position.

His job down there was also to some extent contingent on surrounding schools primarily USM being a dumpster fire. He can be the best recruiter around and 80% of the 2nd tier talent in MS still isn't going to ULL without extenuating circumstances.

First off, steroid abuse? What are you talking about? Secondly, the NCAA stuff is a non-issue. That was proven this past Friday. I’d take Hud back if Moorhead will have him, but I don’t know that he will. At the end of the day, we are talking about recruiting. Moorhead may have a better guy in mind. Hud didn’t pull any elite prospects at WR for us, that is for damn sure. For recruiting that position, I’d rather have a guy with strong out of state contacts anyway. Outside of AJ and Moncrief, MS has produced basically no elite receiving prospects in the past 15 years.

Don't know about Moorhead (who probably never heard of him) but doubtful if Keenum would allow it anyway even if Cohen would which he might not either. Let's face it he's tainted

I like Hud. I don't give a 17 what y'all say. His speech where he's talking about it being time to make a withdrawal from all those checks you been depositing is awesome. Anyone have that video?

Texted his staff at 7:00 AM this morning saying meeting scheduled at 8:30
Told them all they were out of a job.
Stringer was coming back if Pruitt got the job in SVegas.

WR position coach would be a good fit, IMO. I don’t think he’d go off-field and I don’t want to see him in Oxford.

I'll take Hud in a heart beat. What's the worst that can happen if we get in trouble with the NCAA, 2 schollies over 10 years?

An assistant wouldn’t cheat on ACT scores on his own without the head coach giving it the okay.

It bothers me that he used poor judgment in hiring Saunders. He might have some morals issues as well. He was the WR coach before he left and went to lead ULL. Miranda was a GA I believe that worked closely with him and replaced him when he left. We know what Miranda did with Redmond. He might have taught him some bad qualities. Anyway, offensively I think we are in good hands.

As for Reed, I would rather see him assisting Tony Hughes in recruiting.
