Playing Texas really hard
I would love to have Campbell. He would be a perfect fit for us imo
I agree. It seems like a great fit.Quote:

If you want 6-6 to 8-4 with mostly defense and running, sure cause it isn’t getting better than that with him, but I mean thats ok here historically but 10 wins are not happening with him and again he’s defense minded not offenseQuote:

And yet, we have people that don't want that guy. SMHQuote:

Different kids up there. Different ball
We both have overall losing records, we both have 1 division title, they have 2 conference titles to our 1, each state has two major P5 schools to split a smaller population, similar size stadiums….we are a lot more similar than you thinkQuote:

The guy has talent deficits compared to others in his conference and yet wins consistently and is always competitive. That's coaching.
He's not my first choice but we could do way worse than
Campbell
That's a fair way of putting it.Quote:

Not until Starkville gets a Target**Quote:

Per the NCAA record books we are not over .500, I know we are if we disregard the penalties/forfeits but the official record is we are under, and we are not that much higher than Vandy all timeQuote:

Anyone who would not be happy with Campbell is living in an alternate reality of disillusion. We are Alabama. Or lsu. Or Florida. And in this day of nil we are not even sniffing those schools. Accept it
Ok, after forfeits we have won 585 games. Vandy has won 557 games. ISU has won 545 games. They are much closer and below VandyQuote:

But he's down the list for me. Behind leipold, fisch, Chadwell, smith, Mullen (I know), etc....
Plus i doubt he wants to come here.
I get the doubt he wants to come here but your list is made up of guys that you can say the same about.Quote:
