re: Mississippi State pursuing Haley

I don't think he's as bad of a coach as some make him out to be on here. I'd honestly want to keep him on staff in some capacity rather than giving him to a rival. I do think we need new blood on the dline though. People quickly forget his success with Edwards, Mingo, Logan, Brockers, Montgomery to name a few. The past 2 years have sucked but LSU has been expected to develop lineman faster with the departures. Maybe guys like Hunter just aren't going to ever learn how to pass rush.

As I said in the other thread, he might suck closing on some premiere blue chips but he also helps with us landing a lot too. He's not a bad recruiter at all despite having trouble closing on the absolute premiere players.
