Not sure what State did to deserve the curse it has, and definitely not sure what those pieces of shit in Oxford have done to deserve their incredible fortune and luck, but here we are. Just shut it down. We are cursed and human beings don't deserve to have this kind of misery and pain in their lives. It's unhealthy, and horrible.
I am gutted for Taylor. Absolutely gutted.
Oh, and Lebby...you suck. But everything sucks.
Remember you telling me I was dumb for saying Lebby sucks?
You were dumb. It was premature. It's not anymore. Ha.Quote:

You can't blame it on money when you lose to WF. Cadaver, you know I love you man, but it's Lebby. He certainly has limitations being here, but come on mane, he's garbage. He holds us back more than we hold himQuote:

Even the best coach in modern history was looking to leave because he knew we would never be there with real resources when he needed them. And he achieved way above what he should have, busted their ass to find kids and turn them into players.
And we cussed his ass all the way. And to think there are those that believe he would come back here. Ha, he 17ing knows better.
This is really pathetic when you think about it. We are tribal, divided and dumb, a killer in that combination, and we have it all by the truckload. So thanks for nothing but ulcers.
The biggest losers are the ones who think that the last 2 years are OK and that we can't expect any better.Quote:

Nice cherry picking you 17ing asshole. You will want to fire the next one too just give it time. I’ve seen it for 54 years of attendance. If we are one thing we are consistent.Quote:

We can't do anything right and if we do we have to spend a lot more than we have. Bury this beast.Quote:

We could fire Lebby and it's essentially the same situation as it would be if we keep him and we will keep him because we need some stability.
Couldn't have said it better!!Quote:

Yep, tired of everyone just blaming money for our issues. We got issues way bigger than just money.Quote:

Have a big time, keep up that short sighted view, it?s working so well for the last 80 years.Quote:

MSU needs to leave the SEC. We have been left behind and there is no catching up anymore. No one wants to coach here other than BOC with the Taj Mahal of a baseball stadium we have. The powers that push the buttons don?t want to spend the money to win in football. It?s obvious. And before any of you start ripping on me that this a stupid thing to say, it?s no worse than some of the other silly shit that gets said here
I?ve been aroundQuote:

We keep holding on to that SEC paycheck
If funding doesn’t change this is exactly what will happen.Quote:

This is the approach we should take. We only have to buy3-4 top basketball players yet football takes about 30 so we could win in basketball. At least rather be winning in 2 sports instead of 1.Quote:

I find it interesting that Arkansas couldn?t field a winning team but Arkansas State did and played and won a bowl game. Harding University played Ferris State for the DII NC last week.
Southern Miss usually has decent success in the SunBelt and they have a heck of a competitive baseball program.
Tulane, a perennial bottom feeder has had much success in the past 8 years.
Kennesaw State, Ga., in their 2nd year in FBS had a winning record.
James Madison, in their 3rd year, played in the playoffs. Did t deserve it, but won enough games to qualify by the current rules.
In fact, the SEC is So Top Heavy that the bottom 4 all finished 1-7 in league play. No wonder the SEC sucked in bowls and playoff games this year. The top beat up on the bottom.
Non-the-less, State doesn?t need to drop into the G5 until State is told to by the upper echelon of The Professional Minor League Football Organization.
All it takes is one Dickie Scruggs.
More, significantly more.Quote:

This season is what I understood.
Besides #1, the best lottery pick players top 10 are getting about 2 million according to reports and everything I have read. If you have inside info and knowledge within the athletic department and program then ok but if you don?t you are wrong.Quote:
