    My goodness, AJ is the biggest recruiting whiff in the history of our school.

    Say what you want, but that was horrendous. Sorry for bring it back up

    Once again, we were never going to get him. I knew that when he was a junior,and tried to tell y'all. It was always a Bama or Ole Miss. He was NOT going to MSU. We have never had a lock on highly recruited kids from Starkville. We get about half of them historically.

    I get this, but it doesn't make it any less of a kick in the nutts & reaffirms how we can't allow that to happen

    Historically there has not been a good town and gown relationship with Starkville. That is slowly changing but historically Starkville has basically resented the college. It's stupid on Starkville's part. Starkville without MSU is Aberdeen.

    Yeah. probably one of the most ridiculous things about Starkville.

    I think playing football games on campus rather than in Jackson has made a huge difference because so many alumni now have condos & 2nd homes in Starkville, which has changed the voter base

    Agree, it's changing. The last 10 years have been unreal. Starkville ought to chip in to give Mullen a raise. I'm serious there. Mullen has done more for Starkville than perhaps any individual in its history.

    So gas station food is now the feature cuisine in Oxford. That's two games running. Flagship.

    But it?s not a whiff on our part if a dude with his hand out was never coming to State anyway. And if he chose OM over Bama, his hand and his parents? hands got greased very nicely. Hope he enjoys NEVER going to a bowl and never having a winning record.

    Yes, I get it. Still hurts though & feels like a kick in the ball every time he does something.
