Is today the worst day to be a Mississippi State fan in the last 40 years?

[Quaoarsking]

I have never felt so betrayed by the university leadership. The Egg Bowl loss in 2008 was obviously horrible, but Croom was fired before noon the next morning.

Today, unlike any other day, we know that Keenum and Selmon don't give a shit about the football program or its fans. I'm going to have to seriously reconsider putting so much time and energy into this going forward.

[parabrave]

Well Basketball is looking up. Haven't been this excited since Bowers/Frazier years.

[HoopsDawg]

Maine was rock bottom but this is a relapse with no end in sight. We are not in a good place.

Yeah, if we want to call this #2 behind that one, I won't have a great argument against, but I recall not being so hopeless at the time. Because we all kinda suspected it might happen, and even then it was a very fluky game.

[confucius say]

No. Not even close.

Looking like the only way to get their attention.

[Cooterpoot]

Hell no

[Commercecomet24]

No way. The tech and 10 season was way worse than this. The Maine game, the Houston game where we got beat like 76-0 and I could go on because there?s quite a few worse.

ETA not deny the suckitude we are in right now but people only feel it?s worse because it?s the most current but there?s been way worse times;

[Maroonthirteen]

No. It's already been said here. Arnett knows he isn't coming back. Selmon is shopping.

Just because we don't make a grand spectacle of firing Arnett, doesn't mean we are sitting on her hands.

Nobody is asking for a "grand spectacle." We just want the gift and reassurance that Texas A&M and Boise State fans got today, that plenty of fanbases get during October and November in every season.

The is the correct take. All true. We don't need to panic because we don't see stuff happening. Rest of year really don't matter anyway. What will happen is happening and will only be revealed when ready.

Not even remotely close. We will have a new coach. Good grief. Melt much??

It could affect the buyout amount if he is fired this early

You'll be reassured when he's canned. Until then just deal w it.

According to whom? Why is this nugget coming out for the first time just now? How much would it "affect" the buyout? And is this just a "could" situation?

[Quaoarsking]

Yes, I'm melting down because I actually give a shit about this football program, unlike our president and AD and some of the so-called fans who post here. I want what's best for the program in the short term and the long term, and that's getting rid of Arnett ASAP, not letting him blow 2 more games for us, and certainly not letting him have another year (which is what some posters here clearly want).

[dawgday166]

There's been so many it's hard to keep up. Much easier to count on the one to two hands how many great days we've had.

[confucius say]

Yea, it is a "could" situation. I do not know the terms of his contract. But i do know it has a cutoff date where the buyout drops, as they all do.

[Quaoarsking]

Why hasn't this been reported before? It's always been "3 million a year, and the buyout is half of the remaining contract"

[phatdog]

that time Mike Henigs threw 6 interceptions was bad. Or was that Tony Romos.

[LC Dawg]

I think you have to consider the day our head coach died as worst day in our history. No matter what you thought of Leach that was a pretty big blow.

[confucius say]

It's still that. 3 million a year. This year isn't over yet.

This here for sure. Without a doubt.

[Coach34]

No but this is probably the worst thread in 40 years

[EdwardDrayton]

This is why we have no money and others do. Others actually listen to their fanbase and make it happen. Thus the fans are invested. Us? We're just on the outside and nobody cares what we want or think.

I haven't seen anyone saying he needs another year. But maybe I missed it.

[Quaoarsking]

It's very obvious that the anti-Leach crowd that is saying don't fire him today and let him have 2 more games is laying groundwork to switch back to saying "keep him" next Friday. Depending on how the next 2 games go, that may not be a possibility, which is why none of them are being explicit about it, but it's what they're hoping for.

There is no reason in the world why Arnett should coach another game if we're really all on board with firing him next Friday. The only reason for anyone to say that is if you want to leave open the possibility of him coming back, and unsurprisingly, it's all of the posters who've been the most pro-Arnett all year, the ones gloating after Arizona and Arkansas, and insisting that we weren't that bad all year, and even saying today of all days that the team played hard yesterday, who are the ones saying give Arnett 2 more games and all-of-a-sudden we just can't fire him midyear.

[Quaoarsking]

No, that would be your thread where you promised we'd win more games in 2023 under Arnett than we would have under Leach. That have been the worst thread on any message board, not just this one.

So you're anti leach if you say firing him today does nothing? And man you're a mind reader too.... great. And clearly your post isn't in reference to me bc I damn sure wasn't gloating after either of those games I can assure you.

You're mixing up cause and effect. I'm not saying that wanting to keep Arnett makes you anti-Leach, I'm saying that the loudest anti-Leach posters are the primary people not wanting to fire Arnett today. It would bruise their egos too much.

one win over what the 2023 team would have gotten. Rogers getting hurt changed all that obviously.

So after you insist that you didn't say it, and I prove that actually you did (what did you expect by the way?) your go-to is "well I would have been right if Rogers hadn't gotten hurt!!" ? After all these years, suddenly you're a Rogers fanboy? You think we'd have 2 or 3 more wins with him? (And even then, we still wouldn't be +1 from where Leach would have us.)

Come on. Just admit that you were wrong about that prediction and obviously we wouldn't be 3-7 right now if Leach were still alive and coaching us, or anywhere close to that really.

We as State fans have a GREAT opportunity.

We just have to see it and out NIL people have to make it happen.

25k fans x $20 per month = $6m a year

And this is just the start.

This is a great day to be a Bulldog!! We need to be woken up.
