Recruiting is the lifeblood of your program and you hardly get the four to five star players using vinegar. When was the last time we won a recruit because we outworked the other team for them. Cannizzaro, Howland, Schaefer you see it time and time again. It’s almost like we don’t put the same expectations of football recruiting like we do other sports. Mullen is the Andy Kennedy of recruiting for MSU with the majority of the same results.
One more time, jeez.......There are at least as many Alabama fans in the Golden Triangle as MSU fans. Outside of Starkville there are more. Bama starts on at the worst an equal footing with us in recruiting kids in the Triangle. It’s never a slam dunk for us there when Bama is involved.
