Murray State Coach Matt Griffin fired

[OSRacer]

...hopefully we can get someone in there to get us to a level of competing for championships. Hate to see it but it had to happen.

[EKUSteve]

And so it truly begins in the OVC. Will he coach the final game?

Waiting to see who else has the shoe drop on them. This has not been a good year for the OVC outside of EIU and Jax St. We had our high water point in beating EIU but have been offensively anemic ever since.

Lucky, we're still stuck with our coach. xsmhx You can have him if you want.

[OSRacer]

He will not coach the final game...we have things in place to win, and decent talent, but have been awul an very inconsistent. I like Coach Griffin but this is needed I think.

Linwood Ferguson was the OC at EKU Danny Hope's last year there.

[bb king]

He was a part of the staff with Danny and help them to win the ovc which eventually help coach hope to move on to Purdue. He would be a great hire for Murray as would any of the other candidates

[bb king]

just heard some other names interested in Murray:

Chris vaughn former murray player and current ole miss asst
shane beamer south carolina asst.
John shannon Marshall oc
Bill Maskill Midwestern State

[Cocky]

Joey Jones- HC South Alabama
Or what about Jack Crowe HC JSU??

[bb king]

the word I have heard at JSU is that coach crowe will be moving to the front office to become a fundraiser and that they will replace him with bill clark former prattville head coach and current dc at south alabama

[WestCoastAggie]

Whomever we get, he better have head coaching experience. Trust me on this, I've done the research.

That woud work for me. I played for Bill's father he comes from good stock.

[Cocky]

What about Rush Propst?

[ngineer]

Been awhile since the Racers have been in the playoff picture. Everytime I see your school's name, I recall our playoff game back in 1979. Hope you can get it back together.xnodx

[Cocky]

Tommy West might be a good fit.

[bb king]

cocky:

I think that would be a great move for jacksonville state. You get both a really good coach in Bill, and a great fundraiser in Jack and together in would be interesting to see how high jacksonville state can climb. As for Bill and his father what great people. Bill would also be a great fit for Murray as well.

[Cocky]

Now if you can make it happen. Several have tried to get a change but not much luck. Losing 3 to 5 games a year is not what JSU football is about.

[JSU02]

What about Rush Propst?
I don't see us hiring a coach with no college experience.
Clark might be a good fit. Born in Anniston and graduated from JSU in '90

I was meaning for Murray.

[JSU02]

I guess i got BB king's and our statments mixed up. Have you heard anything about crowe moving up and clark being hired for us, Cocky?

[iceman4221]

An the annual College Football HC Firing/Hiring carousel begins on time as usual...

I've heard rumors but not anything to get my hopes up. Bill was in Jacksonville to meet with the Pres before he took the South job but that the only thing.

Well if thats who we really wanted, i'm sure we would be able to get him away from South Alabama

[bb king]

I have not heard much on what was posted the other day. only that jack will stay at jax state in a fundraiser role and coach clark would be the next head coach at jax state I will let you know more when I can. Sorry for the delay in responding.
