Coach Dudley is so close to breaking through and winning it all. They left a lot of points on the track or the men could have had a top 5 finish. Great having a coach like Dudley on campus who loves Starkville and MSU. He could have left dozens of times but I think he realizes the grass isn't always greener. I think most of our coaches now have that mindset, which is great for our future.
Any clue how to correctly pronounce her first name?Quote:

Just for the sake of conversation, how would you respond to the statement
"Steve Dudley is the most successful coach in Mississippi State History"
Discuss.

I do they we focus on the NCAA's more than the SEC from a results standpoint.
I think that clearly team results is a better indicator than individual results, but I haven't found a good list of MSU overall results over the years.
We are consistently top 25 in both men's and women's now, and I don't think we have been in the past.
I also didn't realize until a few minutes ago that Dudley is married to Tiffany McWilliams.
