Strick says we've reached out to Notre Dame

[blacklistedbully]

Wanted to make sure this didn't get lost in the other thread. We've contacted them about scheduling them in football. Haven't heard back yet.

I'm really impressed with Scott, and am glad we've got one of our own at the helm. Whatever you think of any specific moves, he is true maroon through & through!

[starkvegasdawg]

Let's just hope notre dames response isn't: " Are you the school that had the noose hung around that statue?"

[Leroy Jenkins]

I think they want to play UGA to open up GA recruiting.

[TUSK]

That game will never happen IMO.

Shotgun made a great point in the other thread.

ND would get little value in a win over MSU...

My guess would be a beatable UGA or Florida interests them most.

[blacklistedbully]

I think they want to play UGA to open up GA recruiting.

That appears to be their first choice, but they did say they wanted "an SEC team". If Georgia doesn't want it, then they're gonna have to look at other fertile recruiting grounds in the SEC. Not sure Les wants to do it, given he's already mad about having UF as his permanent. Bama has already kicked that ass badly, so not sure ND is ready to go there again yet. Sure, there are other options, like Florida, but Florida is already flooded with recruiters.

Hell, if Kelly's really interested in having an SEC opponent, and wants one fairly regularly, why not rotate a few in over the years. They'd probably look at us as a more "manageable" win, yet still get exposure in the South for playing an SEC team.

If that's the case then our response should be, "you scared, bro? We're right here. Come get some unless you're scared. Change you're tampon and come on down."

Exactly! Treat it like Notre Dame threw down the gauntlet, then started back-tracking when we picked it up. PR win.

[jimbo352]

Hopefully he doesn't schedule them for our first game***

I'm sure he's a good guy and a true bulldog, but I have not been impressed with him at all.

To which, we would reply, "We forgave you for having sex with young boys..."

I contacted Jennifer Aniston about a date but haven`t heard back yet. If you`re impressed with Stricklin wasting his time "reaching out" to a team that wouldn`t schedule us in 1 million years then you`re pretty easily impressed.

This may be true, but, no matter if Notre Dame would ever play us or not, you still have to contact them and make the offer. By contacting Notre Dame, we are putting ourselves in a position where we have completely plausible deniability when we end up scheduling a crappy team.

EX: Lets say in the next few years, we just happen to get very lucky and make the College Football Playoff. Instantly the media, the Big 10, Pac 12, etc will cry foul at our non-conference schedule. But, by Stricklin making it public that we have contacted Notre Dame, now we can say, "Hey, we tried to schedule better teams, but they wouldn't play us. How can you blame MSU, and take away this wonderful opportunity from our student athletes when they nor the administration had any control over what our non-conference schedule was. All we can do is ask the top teams to play us. What do you want us to do?"

Good move by Stricklin no matter how unrealistic it is. It provides an out and the ability to blame our schedule on others.

Stricklin actually showed some mild political savvy with this move.

With your apparent lack of wit, you'd probably have trouble getting a date with a Jennifer Aniston transvestie look-alike.

I guess Oregon would never schedule a home & away with us, either. Oh wait, they did.

And we'd never get a powerhouse program like Miami in the 80's. Oh wait, we did.

What's with you guys who seem to think so little of our value that we couldn't, as an SEC team on-the-rise, with a potential Heismann candidate leading us into a season with the potential to compete for the SEC, look at all attractive to a program that is actively and publicly seeking an SEC opponent, presumably one they probably feel they stand a good chance of beating, but not being of Vandy or UK quality?

As others have pointed out, they came to Mississippi in '77 to play Ole Miss, 6 years after Ole Miss' previous appearance in a poll. A time ND was consistently at or near the top of the polls.

While they may decide not to engage us, don't give me this sad sack shit about us not being worthy or attractive enough.

That series was played 1980-1983. Between 1970 and 1979, THE U won 42 and lost 67 with their best season being a 6-5 campaign. "National Powerhouse" Miami did not schedule a 4 game home and home with us. Mediocre at best independent Miami did.

[War Machine Dawg]

Hopefully he doesn't schedule them for our first game***

I'm sure he's a good guy and a true bulldog, but I have not been impressed with him at all.

Completely agree. He may be "one of us" and a true Dawg, but he's sucked hard as an AD. Look no further than the bullshit we keep having with Adidas. And not getting a 2-for-1 from USM. And scheduling Okie State in what was regarded as something of a mild rebuilding year. Really, he's only done the minimum that any semi-competent AD would have. He badly needed to be an AD somewhere else before taking over an SEC program.

[BulldogBear]

I wish this could happen. I just think from ND's point of view there's nothing to be gained from playing us. Georgia or TAMU or Tennessee or even SC would play them in a heartbeat. SC or Georgia would be "all excited" and sold out to play them just like we would.

noticed you didn't say anything about oregon. I also didn't mention a few other teams we scheduled that were damn good at the time, though not historically great like ND.

Guys, we are not a CUSA team. Stop thinking like we are.

I really don't. I'm just kind of thinking that way about the Domers. I think they see us as a "CUSA school." I just really don't think there's anything we could do to interest them. They might do a 1 (Starkville) for 2 (South Bend) with us but not sure I'd want that.

[Pollodawg]

If we played Notre Dame, we would rip their tiny ball sacks open and forcibly feed it to them..............Yeah, I been drinking, but I still think we could hold our own with the Irish.

[EdDawg]

Georgia, Florida, nor South Carolina will schedule ND. Why would they? Those teams already have their OOC game what would they get from that game? Nothing.

[War Machine Dawg]

Georgia, Florida, nor South Carolina will schedule ND. Why would they? Those teams already have their OOC game what would they get from that game? Nothing.

Yep. We're one of the few SEC teams it makes some logical sense for ND to play. As you say, UGA has GT, FL has FSU, and SCar has Clemson. Don't see any of them wanting to add ND with those teams already on the schedule every season.

ND will want no part of Bama after the can of whoop ass that Bama opened on them in the NC game a couple years ago. Doubt they'll want any of Auburn or LSU, either. That leaves us, aTm, UT, Mizzou, Arkansas, Vandy, UK, and the BearSharks as viable options for ND. Of that group, I'd say the only 2 teams that might be more attractive to ND are aTm and Mizzou. If we're forced to schedule a "power conference" team every year, then we should schedule a team like ND who'd be no better than a middle of the pack SEC team. Plus, I'd love to beat the piss out of that constantly overrated but continuously fellated program.

That and it will show the SEC that we are at least trying to do what they want us to do- and unless Notre Dame does something completely unexpected- how difficult it is for us to do a home and home with a Big 5 school.

I still think we are going to be destined to play a bunch of kickoff classics until the SEC expands or does away with that dumb rule.

don't know why ... it's not like they are a perennial power house like Bama or LSU ..... so they played for the title a few years ago and have a championship back in the eighties or something like that .... we saw what happened when they played bama

Our program is better than our own fans give it credit for being. Notre Dame would be honored to compete against one of the oldest programs in college football. It remains to be seen whether they take advantage of the opportunity. I've always wanted to play them, so I hope they do accept the challenge from us.

[BulldogBear]

Yes, you and I know that, but ND alumni don't. As long as they get to have their cake and eat it too... as long as they get be independent yet not in other sports, mucking up and holding the whole expansion issue for the other Big Fivers... as long as they have their NBC deal... they are going to want big opponents and want them in South Bend. Road trips for big opponents only. Although...they play some "not big opponents" on the road but many of those are old rivals and a few are areas they want to recruit. They are not trying to recruit Mississippi. They will not come here. They need to guarantee 7 home games for revenue (AD and/or president has stated this). I want this, but it's not happening.

[Statecoachingblows**]

I find it interesting that the majority of the talk about who they want to play is mostly teams from the SEC East. I know recruiting is a big part of it but wouldn't they be better off credibility wise to take on a team in the toughest division in D1? Whether they will take us on or not at leat its out there. And I'm guessing we were the first ones to accept their challenge? it's not like DWS is a 15,000 seat venue either. It would be a prime time game if for no other reason than its ND vs SEC which gives not schools their much desires PR points

[smootness]

Didn't Byrne set up the USM series?

Yes. But for some insane reason I will never understand, some of our fans just assume Byrne was a god and Stricklin is a bumpkin with an IQ of 80.

And what BS with Adidas? The fact that we are their flagship baseball school, or the fact that he's renegotiated the deal with them to give us a much more advantageous relationship?

Or just the fact that some of our fans don't like our style of jersey sometimes?

In the grand scheme of things, our style of jersey is probably Priority # 3,451 of an AD.

I agree. Yes. Adidas has put out some crappy looking jerseys, but that's an "art-direction" thing that could swing around 180 degrees. I like the fact that they consider us one of their, if not their, "Oregon". If true, that means they're looking to sink a ton of their focus & money on us in order to compete with Nike. Their willingness to invest in us is far more important than whether or not their art department is sucking wind. Changes in the art department can be easy. Replacing the kind of benefit we get from having one of the world's biggest brands of sporting goods investing in us is damn near impossible.

This would be the baddest ass thing ever. And you don't know till you ask. If you don't think my ass will be in south bend you're crazy. The Texas series was incredible, this tops even that.

How will you feel when we win a National title in the Adidas 100 year unis? I personally like those as well as any of the Nike unis. Also MState on the helmet will be linked to us. Too much brand recognition to ever bring back MSJ Nike logo.

[FlabLoser]

I'd rather we schedule a scrub from a P5 than a team with a known ability to be a contender from time to time. Let's don't Rich Rod/WV this up.

(Although when we signed the WV deal, there was no indication WV would be a nationally good team when gametime came up.)

Which is why it's extremely risky to set up deals 5 years out.

[Todd4State]

The fact of the matter is Notre Dame doesn't want to come to Starkville. And it's not because it's Starkville and there isn't a Cracker Barrel. It's because they know they would get their ass kicked.

[maroonmania]

That game will never happen IMO.

Shotgun made a great point in the other thread.

They would get considerably more value playing us than they do a large part of their current schedule however when you place value gained against risk of losing therein lies the problem for them. We WILL be a much more respected opponent over the next few years based on what we've done this year following many consistent bowl seasons. That can't be denied.

[msstate7]

It might actually bother me a little bit to be insulted here, but when I consider the source, it occurs to me it's really kinda silly to get irritated when a clown like you does it. I mean, is it your fault you're a moron? In all likelihood, you were born that way. Rather than get angry with you, I should pity you.

Way to use a really classless old reference to the mentally-handicapped in a lame, uninspired attempt to ridicule. Just further proves what a low-brow, unintelligent moron you are.

Your concern over this thread continuation, and the fact you are the only one who has expressed a problem with it reeks of your desperation to take a shot at me. Yeah, I get that you're obsessed with me, just as you've been from the beginning of your time on this board. I exposed you for the clown you are, and you resent it. I get it. Just because you are a moron, that shouldn't preclude you from getting upset when another poster points it out.

It's just a damned shame, and frankly, disgusting that you chose to use the word "retard" in your insult. I have had the pleasure of working with, and being around many mentally-handicapped people in my life, and nearly all of them are the sweetest, most caring and loving people I know. Every last one of them is insulted by the term, "retard", no doubt because most of them were tortured as youths with this word by low-life dirtbags like you who probably have such self-esteem problems that they need to sink really low in an effort to make themselves feel superior to someone...anyone, including those who least deserve to be treated in such a way.

The fact that you choose to use that word to infer intellectual inferiority is truly telling. You are, without doubt, a serious POS, and a loser.

Not worth it

[Johnson85]

shouldn't Notre Dame be reaching out to us?

Depends on whether they think we're a one Dak wonder. If they do, they should be all about scheduling us for 2016 and maybe 2017, hoping they get a big name as it regresses to the mean.

But I would say they shouldn't schedule any SEC team but a UGA, UF, LSU. Go for a big name with the potential to be going through a transition. Looking two or more years out, there's a good chance they could lose to whichever SEC team they pick (with the exception of Vandy), so might as well pick a team where the perception won't be that bad if you lose.

[blacklistedbully]

Ok, retard

Too late. You already showed your real stripes, loser.

[Dog316]

Wanted to make sure this didn't get lost in the other thread. We've contacted them about scheduling them in football. Haven't heard back yet.

I'm really impressed with Scott, and am glad we've got one of our own at the helm. Whatever you think of any specific moves, he is true maroon through & through!
