The University of Mississippi (Ole Miss) has announced the appointment of Zachary "Zach" Arnett as the interim head football coach for Mississippi State University (MSU). This comes after the dismissal of former head coach Zach Arnett, who led the Bulldogs for just one season.

Arnett, born September 10, 1986, has a proven track record as a leader for the MSU football program. He previously served as the Bulldogs' defensive coordinator before being named interim coach.

Arnett's accomplishments include:

• Leading the Bulldogs to their first bowl game in four years
• Improving the team's defensive performance significantly
• Identifying and developing talented players

MSU's athletic director, John Cohen, expressed confidence in Arnett's ability to guide the team as interim head coach. "Zach has a deep understanding of our program and its values," Cohen said. "He has a proven ability to motivate and develop our players, and I am confident that he will provide the necessary leadership during this transition period."

Arnett's appointment is effective immediately. He will take over the reins of the team and prepare them for the upcoming season.
