"Take the Money and Run" may apply to someone other than Don Merlin. Hearing that AJ

Check your pride at the door. AJ Brown is the best WR in the SEC. That's not me just saying that that's the coaches and media voting him that. Besides DB we are the weakest at WR outta any position on the field. With him on the team this year we go 10-2 not 8-4. I can check my pride for another ten win season especially since all the bad feelings got started with him making fun of Muffin's recruiting basically. We all make fun of Muffin's recruiting especially now that he's gone. Look at the multiple threads on the first page of this board making fun of his recruiting at Florida if you don't believe me.

Pride really doesn't have anything to do with it. So you think it was because our prior coaching staff didn't give him the love he wanted. In that case love = ? (If anybody can't figure that one out). I don't think anybody is saying he is not an elite receiver on the "field". So you want a player with no work ethics, a me me type player, and all his drama, and how he felt about MSU, (See 2017 Egg Bowl), but those feelings have now changed, and he now loves MSU, since the sanctions came down? OK! You may want to get our coaches and the players' opinions, if they want somebody like this in their locker room?

Huh? You think anybody would have a problem with one of the top WR's in the country transferring in if he was from bum17 Tennessee and currently played at Ohio State?

So you want a player with no work ethics, a me me type player, and all his drama....

Just stop. Just because a guy goes to OM doesn't mean that he is an asshole off the field. And you don't know shit about his work ethic or whether or not he is a team player. At this level, players are almost never as successful as he has been if they aren't willing to work hard, and he seems to be pretty damn popular with his team. And what drama are you talking about? The fact that he is cocky and runs his mouth a little too much? Small price to pay for 1250 yards and 11 TD's, in my opinion. And out of curiosity, what are your feelings on Fred Smoot?

...how he felt about MSU, (See 2017 Egg Bowl), but those feelings have now changed, and he now loves MSU, since the sanctions came down?

Why do you care about whether or not he loves MSU? Every year we bring in a bunch of players who would rather be signing with Bama, Auburn, LSU, etc. but they didn't get an offer.....they sign because we are their best available option, not because they love MSU.
