I'm pretty certain Danny White has a great relationship with Josh Heupel and that should help us. I'm a realist and I wouldn't begrudge Heupel if he made a move that's good for his career and family.Lebby is already recruiting the players that Josh will need to run that offense. Plug and play at the HC position?
I’m not opposed to paying Heupel but the reason Kiffin is getting paid so much is due to Mississippi state law. Ole Miss can only sign him to a 4 year contact. Thus they have to pay more to keep a decent coach. Eight year contract for $7 mil is worth more than $9 for four years. Especially when it is guaranteed money.His college HC record is 84-45. Now makes 9 million.
Heupel's record is 44-16 and makes 5 million.
Pay the man or watch him walk....and I wouldn't blame him.

He has a ceiling though. He’s not getting $2 million raises every year to never win anything.I’m not opposed to paying Heupel but the reason Kiffin is getting paid so much is due to Mississippi state law.
