Put Jeff Long's comments on the criteria for coaching hire in OP slot #3.

Good idea. The first part is filled out well. Tried getting Admin to sticky thread or is it too far into the future?

Probably to far in the future. If we hit 3 losses before November though then you can probably sticky it.

They won't even put this thread in the Arkansas team page, much less ever sticky it. I'm sure it'll get deleted a few times before the season is over. This will be an enormous thread by Jan.

I was impressed with the number of people who reached out initially. Most of those were people that were interested in the job at the end of the season because it was a unique time, an unusual time with no spring football practice -- that most people weren't interested in engaging us at that time.
Oh to be a fly on the wall. I would love to know who all reached out to him about the job.

Well, that's odd. The recruiting thread is 104 pages and started 5 months ago.

plus this seems to be a topic of interest to everyone in general. Coaches come and go but this wasn't a guy that 20-14 over last 3 years...

They don't like really long threads around here because 9 times out of 10 they turn in to IM threads. Best to just keep bumping this as needed so it doesn't get deleted.

No doubt. I bet there were some names that would cause riots in a few cities.
Top of my head. Jimmy Sexton probably went down his client list like a soccer mom's grocery list.
Jimbo Fisher? Pass
Will Muschamp? No thanks
Nick Saban? How Much? $10Mil. Let's talk after the season.
Tommy Tuberville? Uhhhh
Lane Kiffin? Dude?
Joker Phillips? pass
Mark Richt? Really? Yeah really? Might need to pray on this one.
Gene Chizick? Does Troop come too? Yeah Man. Then No.
Houston Nutt? click. Jeff? Jeff? I think we have a bad connection.... I'll call ya back.

Oh you're fine. Its when it goes on for days andthe eventual flaming breaks out that they give it the anchor. I think we'll police this well enough ourselves that that wont happen.

Us as in us here on the Rant?
Posted on 7/2/12 at 12:37 am to TheCheshireHog

Charlie Strong and James Franklin would have to be the top two regional candidates that are realistic.
I would like to think that a guy like Dantonio is realistic but who knows if he wants to rock the boat on a pretty good rebuilding job already.
Then you have guys like Garrick McGee, Gus Malzahn Butch Davis and Paul Petrino that would all.probably take the job as soon as they picked up the phone.

I like fitzgerald too... whats the deal with malzahn? an absolute no?
Posted on 7/2/12 at 12:49 am to Elleshoe
Malzahn would be a yes to me but there is a small but vocal portion of our fanbase that despise him for numerous reasons. Seems lame to me but these are the guys that bash him mercilessly on the message boards.
Fitzgerald is a Northwestern alumn so he might be a tough pull to Arkansas.
