Mississippi State Fires First-Year Coach Zach Arnett
Zach Arnett Fired After Two Days as Interim Coach
Just two days after the tragic passing of Coach Mike Leach, Mississippi State University has fired first-year coach Zach Arnett, according to multiple sources.
Details of the Firing
Sources within the athletic department have confirmed the firing, which comes as a surprise considering Arnett's recent promotion from interim status. Arnett, 36, was appointed interim head coach after Leach's death last month.
The decision to fire Arnett is reportedly based on concerns about his ability to lead the program moving forward. According to 247Sports, the university has concerns about Arnett's experience and his ability to handle the pressure of being a head coach at a major program.
Mississippi State is expected to begin a search for a new head coach immediately.
