You can tell that he's clearly frustrated a resolute that this thing will get fix.
The way he speaks at the beginning of this doesn't really do me much for this weekend, but it does make me believe that JoMo absolutely believes he'll get this thing fixed & he resolutely believes that his offense works.
Here clearly looks edgy here. Good to see. Welcome to the SEC coach, we're all edgy.

Talk is cheap. He broke it so he should be the one to get it fixed.
Agree. Just saying that I believe that JoMo believes that this offense will work. FWIWQuote:

At the beginning of this he was pissed. That's ok.
What's bugging me is all the positive spin, numbers, etc. being put on the team. Everything always positive. Mullen used to do same thing in early days. I feel like I'm getting smoke blown up my skirt. I'd prefer to see a Sabanesque interview where he say we doing 1 or 2 things pretty decent, but we got to improve these other 10 areas or we gonna get our ass beat.
So did Sly and Woody. I'm with you. Our eight will be there (my 55th year to attend) and I do want to see it work and bring a W.Quote:

Ok. He sounds like he really believes what he’s doing will work. He also sounds rattled and pissed off. I really hope he turns this around at some point this year and we start seeing what he can do for the long term success. I just don’t know though. The lifelong fan in me wants to believe in him so bad. The 50 year old realist in me says “we screwed”.
Croom went 8-5 with a lesser talented team than this. I know it wasnt in his first year but looking like Moorhead wont get a 8-5.Quote:

Also lived through Shira ( he got SEC Coach of the year once for going 6-5), Bellard's last years (vowed to win the SEC one year and we went 0-8), Rocky (Tech and 10?), Jackie's last three years ( although he will always be a favorite for many reasons),Mullen's annual job search and non prep for OM several years, and now this. Being a State fan is not for the weak of heart and takes guts! Hail State!Quote:

I count 14 of those guys in the country. It's kind of hard to find them. That's why when you do find them, you pay them out the ass to never ever leaveQuote:

I know you can add guys like Holgerson, Harbaugh, Stoops, Richt, Fuente, etc, but those guys have had really bad moments as well. Not sure they fit. Not sure Malzahn fits
Only narcissist believe what they are doing is working and keep doing it, even though every sane person within 3000 miles knows they are a failure. Just saying.Quote:

If the wheels fall off all the way, do you really think we can recruit the players (WR's especially) to run this O just because we can promise playing time against the SEC teams that we have to recruit against. A losing season to me this year could set us back for years. Thought really scares me. JMO. Your thoughts?
Gonna be some lean years coming up.Quote:

Relax guys. It's gonna come together.
I wish he'd start calling plays as fast as he has responses to questions. His mind works quickly so we know it can be done.
Holy shit this is dumb. Orgeron was a total failure at Ole Miss.Quote:

In hindsight a coach with Mississippi ties at the very least would probably be ideal for us. Like Bob Tyler. We really haven't had that in awhile- probably Felker. Our last three coaches actually seem to look down us to a degree in some way shape or form- Croom, Dan in the form of constantly trying to leave, and now Joe. How and maybe more importantly why would and should we support someone that thinks that they are better than us?Quote:

We probably would be better off with a CEO type coach like Jackie was instead of "an offensive genius" who insists on running "his system" come hell or high water. We really need someone that is flexible enough to go between run and pass heavy because the state of Mississippi inconsistently produces players at each position- and some years there are more running backs and others more WR's.
No offense but this mindset is a step backwards when we're trying to breakthrough into more of a national brand type status.Quote:
