The Dispatch learned Tuesday morning that Arnett boarded an LSU-chartered plane bound for Baton Rouge. A source with immediate knowledge of the situation told The Dispatch Arnett's involvement with the Tigers' vacant defensive coordinator job is currently "just a conversation," and that nothing had been signed as of Tuesday morning.



Arnett, who just completed his first season at MSU, received a three-year extension worth north of $1 million annually in December according to a separate source.

Stfu about but out haha. We may not get him, but the insane buyout rumor is 100% false.

"If Arnett were to leave, MSU would be forced to hire its 12th different defensive coordinator since 2007."

100%? How do you know with this level of certainty?

I assume his extension hasn't officially been executed yet, but if it has, then he probably does have a hefty buyout if he goes to a school as close to Starkville as LSU is.

If his extension hasn't been signed, then I would guess his buyout is either $450k or $900k (either 50% or 100% of what's remaining on his original 2 year contract signed last January).

I thought the new DC had to be black to make Ryan Clark happy?

He was never going to leave. Knew that when he left BR without accepting an offer. He wants to be HC at Cincinnati and knows Fickell won't be there long, and he can still be close to home. Knows the area well to recruit it and won't have to go far. Best for both worlds.

Didn't Freeman accept the Notre Dame job?

He meant that he wouldn’t have to leave the rust belt/Midwest area.

It's a wonder we ever win a SEC game, but I guess you luck up every once in a while.

He did, in fact, leave.

Just not for LSU.

He is aiming higher than Cincinnati. If he has a couple good seasons as ND DC, he'll 100% get a solid P5 job.
