Dereck Dooley next Head Coach at Miss State....

Could they at least have taken a little more time? Why the hell Derek Dooley?

isn't he a former Saban assistant?

Almost every coach is a former Saban assistant....

yes, at LSU and with the Dolphins. He's a pretty sharp guy, though I doubt Lombardi could win at State.

hard to believe it happens so fast. It almost seems like they were looking prior to Croom resignation.

Kiffin , now Dooley WTF !!!!!!!!hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah sucks to be them

Thanks Bait.

I found the Rooney rule in the NFL. It seems strange that things are happening fast at MSU.

Why the frick not?

He's a law grad? He will probably challenge every play. Games will last for days. Rules will need to be changed to allow teams rest and meal breaks.

It will be like watching a monopoly game as a spectator.

Some of you seem to know nothing about Derek Dooley. His dad was not a half bad coach at Georgia.

Big mistake if Dooley takes the job

I concur. LA Tech is probably not the optimal job but it is much better than MSU. It would not make sense for Dooley to step into the first and worst SEC job available. His present position has good pay and he is also the AD.

He has the opportunity to make a lot of progress at Tech and to build a resume for premier coaching and administrative jobs that will be available in the future.

He played football at UVA and earned a law degree at UGA. He left the law to become a coach. He has excelled at recruiting and did a little time with Saban at the Dolphins. I think he is looking beyond Starkville--unless they offer a really insane amount of money.
