I hope so but we will need to increase our talent profile in order to make that type of jump. We will need to start consistently getting all the top players in Mississippi and going into Louisiana, Alabama, and Georgia and snatching some of their top to mid tier players to fill out our roster. We can't simply dominate Mississippi because there is just not enough elite talent every year to compare with what Bama is bringing in nationwide.

And we must do it without getting to what OM did because OM will have PIs watching us like a hawk. But I am hopeful that with the type of program Mullen has run, the consistency in coaching, with the Dak effect, and the success of guys we've put in the NFL that we should be able to get on recruits' short list. Once there we have to identify guys who fit our system and battle to get them. They are not going to fall into our lap like they do at Bama and LSU.
