    And there it is... I had the over/under on when lack of OL/WR recruiting would be mentioned at under 7. Damn! Freakin' lost the Hev mention too. C'mon guys!

    Ole Miss will have to be very careful because they will be on repeat violator status. Based on 1994, and what's currently going on with their recruiting, yes they will cut it back for awhile because they won't have a choice.

    I hope we have all of our recruiting ducks in a row. You know the rebs are going to go on the warpath looking for dirt on our recruiting.

    I can't disagree with your post, there will definitely be a great deal of bullshat coming from them, all we have to do is look that way right now to see what's going on with the Grove crowd. They are loosing their minds right now and it will only go down hill after they are handed down crippling sanctions.

    We as an alumni can't do what we have done in the past and let in fighting over stupid shat split us into factions. We are already split enough like it is. If we are to take this opportunity and exploit it to it's fullest, solidarity will be the word of the day. What can't have the " He has to win x games" to fast. If we aren't stupid and we play the long game right, the talent level will be what it needs to be to compete for the west. It's up to us and our administration not to cock this opportunity up we have a chance to bury the grove dwelling bastards for year to come, but we have to stick together.

    It is exciting again in Starkville! Doing it the right way and making us a factor in the SEC. Now, we just need the media to pull their heads out their asses.

    You are right and he missed on that, but one or two HS OLs is still a problem.

    Don't hold your breath on that last part. Until the prominent msu alum start approaching the level of $ they pump into the media groups, don't expect much changes. Money talks.

    That is why I made the post just up the board, it's time to get on one page as an alumni. We are the worlds worst about not marching to the same drummer. And yet look what Mullen and Co. have accomplished to date.

    I still say an "early" signing period in December doesn't really change anything. If you want to change the process, the early period should be right around now, early-to-mid August. Let the kids who want to end their recruitment before they start their SR season do so.
    It's the roller coaster of hope that this program keeps us on that makes it hell being a State fan. - CadaverDawg, 10/15/22

    Sure, alt-Rebels coming after us. However, what they've shown the past year, what we've seen with their goings on, is that the average Ole Miss Reb Supremacist is dumber than a box of rocks. They're breathtakingly slack-jawed, unibrowed, window-licking, mushmouthed, talk-like-they-have-a-piece-of-shit-in-their-mouth stupid. Sure, they can try to find dirt on The Mississippi State University. In the end, they'll be making Wile E. Coyote look like a brilliant mastermind.

    In the past, what Reb Supremacists had over The Mississippi State University and their fans is that they are utterly ruthless. Plus we had a bunch of namby-pamby, go-along-to-get-along, Vichy alt-Bulldogs like Larry Templeton as AD and Charles Lee as President. NOW, The Mississippi State University has politically-connected Mark Keenum as President and hard-nosed, wily John Cohen as Athletic Director....THEY aren't going to roll over and throw our head coach under the bus the way Vichy Bulldogs did to Jackie Sherrill.

    Reb Supremacists tried to intimidate two of our recruits with threats of Lynching their college eligibility...but this time, we threw that shit RIGHT BACK IN THEIR FACE. Their boosters are weak and woman-like, and deserve the scorn they're getting from the National Media.
