At the time I knew a number of the players and this is what I was told. When Arnsparger was the Coach no player would talk to him because they were afraid of him. They would go to Archer and then Archer would go to Arnsparger. Archer had a great relationship with the players and they really liked him. Some of them actually called Archer "Mike" and not Coach. When Archer became the Coach he could not be a Coach because he was too close to the players. Some started taking advantage of the situation and this led to a problem on the team. Archer is a good coach and DC but did not have the abilities to be a HC at the time.
These are the facts! What I heard as well.

Archer lost team before 1989 season after loss to Syracuse in bowl game.
Also, recruiting was an issue. Look at instate talent that went out of state at that time.
