[SlappyCajun]

They are very close to securing the services of Gus Malzahn....

Malzahn could probably get an SEC job fairly easily or at least a BCS job. I'll believe this when he puts the hat on.

[SlappyCajun]

My first reaction as well. But I think there is a little more steam to this then I even thought at first. stAte will make him the highest paid coach in the Belt. He is from Arkansas originally, and supposedly, he has had some trouble getting the gigs you suggest. Will be interesting.

[CajunEXPRESS]

Huge salary drop, taking over a team that has lost a lot of it's talent. Mighty high price for a guy who can probably get a better gig this or next year, unless he thinks AU is about to tank.

Bring it we owe stAte and ___ whippin come next season and will luv to give whoever they hire a big "L".

[SlappyCajun]

FWIW.

[moorecajun]

They want to go from the lowest paid coach to the highest paid coach in the SBC and he would still have to take a serious pay cut ... those things don't add up; unless his current job is in jeopardy.

[moorecajun]

Good luck with it. If it makes the Belt stronger I am all for it ... they should have offered Freeze more money sooner; they may have kept him.

Sun Belt bbs board ark state fans calling BS on this.

[CajunDawgPound]

Oe Miss should have taken mal instead

They might have to get his wife a muzzle if they take him as a HC.

[CharlieK]

Meh either way. He's overrated and his wife is bat poop crazy.
