We can agree that poaching the head coach is a bunch of BS, but what is wrong with Mississippi is why successful people leave the state. At MSU, outsiders want to hire the alumni and administration. You don't see that happening in Oxford or Hattiesburg.
Matt Luke wouldn't leave for Alabama, Ohio St., or Texas with a 1 million dollar raise.

Not only did Mississippi State embarrass LSU on this night. Davis Wade Stadium wrecked Tiger Stadium in music choice, atmosphere and, most of all, volume.

This is my point.
Msu has to do better, but for some reason an ultra logical, conservative, inferiority complex set into our fan base many years ago that sets us back.
It?s extremely strange.
MSU people build up these other places to be better, but, as someone that has been to all of them, they aren’t. It’s an illusion built in the minds of MSU people because some media guy tells you that.

I don't think MSU is inferior and I think its success the last 30 or so years proves that.
Mississippi as a state is inferior, and MSU can't fix that.

This. Some things just don't make a lot of sense to me. I guess some just look at their university as a place to get educated then maybe if all falls into place , just another job if you were hired in some capacity at your school. Unless they 17'd me over or something, it would be more than just a job to me if I worked for MSU.
But that's just me. I guess that's the way things go when you are born to parents with maroon blood.

My impression is, State doesn’t have enough cigar boys to cover all the bases and put out all the fires. ....apply the pressure when it needs to be applied and have the funds to back it up...or willingness to spend the money. (Not that I’m judging, just pointing out fact). They have to pick and choose their battles.
But yeah, we have the most passive fan base of any sec school outside Vandy.

Matt Luke wouldn't get the opportunity. And neither did Hugh Freeze.
But I'm glad you know things that Matt Luke would hypothetically do, Marty McFly. I need some help with some betting.
