Throw the bank at Arnett!

Irrespective of us, I'm not so sure LSU is a super attractive destination to go as a coordinator right now unless you're just looking for a payday and are willing to be scapegoated in short order.

Freeman is a good DC, but born and raised in Ohio, and Cincy has only 3 players on the roster from Florida (none from S Fl). He likely isn't tied into the S Fl recruiting scene, especially coming from a G5 in Ohio. So recruiting would be a big question mark. And as impressive as Cincys numbers were, the only P5 they played was UGA, and they were giving up 7+ yards per play. Our experience with Blake Baker has taught me to be wary of hotshot G5 DCs.

Arnett would be coming from a SEC school and all those programs (except for Vandy probably) have tentacles all over Florida. I'd much rather land Arnett than Freeman because I don't think we would have to worry as much about the ability to recruit S Fl.

Can’t argue with that. But I personally don’t believe he would’ve had trouble landing kids. He’s young and energetic and his style looks fun to play in. I’m all aboard the Arnett train though.
