How do we keep this talent in the state?

MSU and OM could easily be up there with Alabama and Auburn in recruiting.

The Kang summed it up best. "Ours are just as good, just not as many"

The talent is here. MSU also has gotten the talent that went to NFL too. So all the we ain't got no talent the past 10 years just isn't true.

Jackie also said (paraphrasing), every team has athletes (300lb linemen and fast players); it is what you do with them that makes the difference. Put them in a position to win.

The talent in Mississippi is incredible. leach will always have athletes on defense and playmakers on O with the in state talent. It?s night and day from Washington state. Arkansas produces about 1/10 the talent if that.

Never understood not being able to create a big gap tween us and a school named after a slave owner's wife. We ain't progressing till the confeds are in our rearview signing our rejects.

LSU is a good example of a talent rich state with only one program. When they have a good coach and keep their talent home they are a powerhouse.

Red duffel bags filled with cash and an endless supply of sorority girls willing to get on their knees during recruiting visits.

Very important. Even if we kept it all in State with the way it will always be split it's not enough for any of our teams to be consistent contenders.
