FWST: Mississippi State could offer enough to lure away TCU's Jim Schlossnagle

[Dogfrog]

Is he here for a meeting with JS or to pick him up in a private jet? No reason for MSU AD to come to Fort Worth for a meeting if there is already an agreement.

Take him back to watch their regional? Get the contract signed? Camp out on his front door to keep ADJD out?

One way to

Sure but the point was aimed at those who believe there was an agreement before season ended.

He’s here to get a scouting report on OU for their regional matchup with Ms St....heck, in fact he may hire him for Friday’s game

If he leaves TCU there was an agreement long before yesterday.

Whatever he decides he already decided.

But he won’t have signed anything until our season was over if he is leaving.

You don’t know that. He may be gone but don’t necessarily believe there is an agreement yet. May be one any minute now however.

MSU is telling their big donors the deal is done with their new coach...don’t know if it’s Schloss or not but most schools wouldn’t be portraying it as done if they didn’t feel it was.

And Schloss is not doing anything quell the rumors even though our season is over and he has been down there to talk to them.

Seems like too much smoke for him not to say something if he wasn’t the guy.

Nothing like submarining this years MSU team that just learned regional site.

I think he's just here to visit his brother Mark. Oh wait, he's taking our SID too?!?!?!

I thought Cumbie was gone when he was taking daily trips to Austin on private jets. Will wait for a confirmation but agree does not look good.

MSU AD is NOT in Fort Worth.

He’s on his way to Destin, Fl for SEC meetings.

If he leaves he leaves.

TCU will find a good coach.

It's a good job and should get some good candidates.

Just wish CDC was still here because I don't think he'd let this happen.

Ok, shut down the RadarNick account.

Didn't think about that. Last 3 years we've been down there during the meetings. We miss it by one week this year.

Wondered this myself. Don't see CDC letting him go.

Good post. A young AD might just hire the inside guy without going through a thorough review and search, just so things do not get too rocky for him to comfortably handle. I like the Mazey inquiry, among others. Saar may be the guy, but you have to know what his detailed plan would be. He has not had to do the hard work of a HC before. Hope Donati does not think he can just "plug in" Saar and think it will be business as usual, just because he has been here under Schloss.

Saarloos has been offered the head jobs at Stanford and Rice. That alone tells you all you need to know. Plus every single person I’ve heard speak about him says he is as legit as they come.

He would (and will be) a home run hire.

But has he turned down the jobs because he doesn't want to be a head coach? There are always those guys know don't want the headaches of being a head coach.

I think he knew Schloss was on his way out and he would take over at TCU when it happened, and he had the money to be patient for it to happen.

Schloss has been biching and moaning about schollies and facilities for the last couple years. The writing may have been on the wall.

Or maybe he doesn’t want to be the head coach at a private school for the same reason ? Obviously to a lesser extent both Stanford and Rice have the same problems we have.

I've been thinking exactly this about Saarloos since the Schloss news broke.

And for those intimating CDC wouldn't let Schloss leave, I'm not so sure he wouldn't have been involved in succession planning like this since Saarloos has been linked to some top jobs for a couple years and long before CDC ever left.

Those two institutions don't have the endowment challenges we do with regard to student aid.
