Zach Arnett: Mississippi State's Former Head Coach Departs
A Tumultuous Tenure Ends in Starkville
Arnett Dismissed After One Season
Zachary Arnett, the former head football coach of Mississippi State University, has been fired after just one season at the helm. The announcement came on Monday, capping a turbulent year for the Bulldogs.
A Proven Leader's Short-Lived Stint
Arnett, a highly respected defensive coordinator, was appointed as Mississippi State's interim head coach in 2022 following the tragic passing of Mike Leach. He previously served as the team's defensive coordinator under Leach.
Despite his strong credentials, Arnett's tenure as head coach was marked by challenges. The Bulldogs struggled on the field, finishing with a disappointing 5-7 record in 2022. Off-field issues also plagued the program, including player arrests and NCAA investigations.
The Search for a New Leader
Mississippi State now faces the task of finding a new head coach who can lead the program to success. Arnett's departure leaves a void at the top, and the search committee will be tasked with identifying a candidate who can build on the foundation laid by Arnett and other previous coaches.
