Ok I'll say it

[Todd4State]

Does anyone else think we go after Luke Altmeyer in the offseason?

He has one year of eligibility left and is from Starkville, obvious former connections to the team through his Dad and he played for Lebby at Ole Miss.

Also and most importantly he seems to be playing well for Illinois.

[Pancho]

Let Lebby determine that. gotta trust him

[Coach34]

Who's to say Lebby didnt try last year and got turned down? Alot of kids get out of Mississippi and dont want to come back until they are much older.

If he did I wasn't aware.

[Coach34]

One would assume after recruiting and coaching the kid he would have reached out when he got our job if he wanted him. Or Luke would have reached out had he wanted to return to Mississippi to play for him

[StarkVegasSteve]

I would look for us to take a QB in the portal based on what I was told today. Name I was told was interesting til I did some digging and there are some legs to it.

[TrapGame]

Speaking of Illinois, Fat Bert got them in the top 25.

And no, Altmeyer isn't coming back to MS.

Will Rogers coming back?******

[CaptainObvious]

Jackson Arnold may have lost his job at OU. 😳

If this QB that you?re talking about is injury prone, he can stay where he is at. I?m not interested in a Stevens,Costello or Shapen

[SilentSteel16]

We have been a transfer portal land mine for QBs…….

I think Arnold has been pretty healthy for his career.

[StarkVegasSteve]

BINGO

[TrapGame]

What are the odds Jackson Arnold is in Starkville next year?

[Dawgface]

BINGO

He hasn?t looked very good. But he is young so who knows….

[TrapGame]

Remember that OK promoted two offensive coaches to Co-OCs so one, or both, of them wouldn't follow Lebby to State. The offense has definitely dropped with Lebby gone. Some of it may be Arnold but a lot of it is Lebby not being there.

[StarkVegasSteve]

What are the odds Jackson Arnold is in Starkville next year?

If he wants to be here, we have the funds. I know he and the family are not happy with the direction the offense is going under Littrell. The only reason that kid is even at OU is Jeff Lebby.

[LC Dawg]

Money is always nice but Altmeyer's family really doesn't need any. He's playing well and Illinois is playing well so I don't know why he'd come to State unless he just misses playing in incessant heat in late September.

[SpaceBully]

Quinn Ewers will be available next year.

[Offshore Dawg]

I think Arnold has been pretty healthy for his career.

That will change with no offensive line.

[Offshore Dawg]

Quinn Ewers will be available next year.

I don't think State can touch Texas's jock washing money.

[TrapGame]

Quinn Ewers will be available next year.

He wouldn't give us the time of day. The blue bloods will be all over him.

[StarkVegasSteve]

Quinn Ewers will be available next year.

Why would he turn down being a 1st round pick?

[DEDawg]

Quinn Ewers will be available next year.

lol yeah in the 2nd round of the NFL draft

[StarkVegasSteve]

I fully expect that we will pursue, and sign, Jackson Arnold out of the portal. He and MVB will compete for the job, maybe along with Shapen, next spring. I honestly suspect Shapen will transfer, or hang it up.

The caveat: MVB absolutely balls out and we upset some teams in the last 8 games.

[chef dixon]

We would be foolish to hitch our wagon to Shapen again. He will get hurt again.

Jackson Arnold looks completely lost. Maybe Lebby can fix that.

I actually liked what I saw from MVB Saturday. He was playing within the offense. Let's see if he can get some quality work in without getting killed this year. I'm sure we will be in the portal regardless.

He's Lebby's boy. I think there's good football in there. I just don't think he and Venables, Littrell, and co. have ever meshed. Lebby is legitimately the only reason that Arnold is at OU in the first place. Like I said, I don't think Arnold would be handed the job. He would have to win it. Both MVB and Arnold are handpicked Lebby QBs. They will battle it out. I do think Arnold would win the job. I think he's a better QB, despite what we've seen in the Littrell system.

I would be very excited to have Arnold for his junior and senior years.

I would as well. And hey, if MVB beats him out, then we have a hell of a QB on our hands. There's a ton of people, and programs, who are still extremely high on Arnold. I know this, none of these problems that he's having popped up until Seth Littrell took over the offense.

[West Houston Dog]

with less talent on his squad?

Assuming the rest of this season goes like the 1st four games, dont want to waste another year or two .

maybe we quietly touch base with Kyle Whittingham HC at Utah and make him an offer he cant refuse.....???

Don't even pick up the phone and waste the time.
