My money says Emery will have a much better chance of coaching stability at MSU.
Yuck.Quote:

I just find it funny how he shows no interest in LSU the entire recruiting process & now it's about the OL. Surely that is what LSU has been selling the entire time, but for 6 month it didn't mattered yet changes his recruitment during the dead period. Come-on mane
This is why this season is so important to MSU.....maybe THE most important season in recent history. If LSU falls flat this season Yaw Yaw is gone. If we can go 10-2 or better it will legitimize Moorhead and the program. If both of those things happen our recruiting continues to improve and we will continue to win.Quote:

How this season goes will be big bc if there is uncertainty around the coaching situation at LSU then we have a much much better chance.
He mentioned LSU in every interview he did at the Opening.Quote:

Then no one else ever had a chance in his recruitment.Quote:

This isn't just a south thing this is an elite recruit thing. Same thing happens in Cali & the Pac 12, in Texas & the Big 12, & the Midwest & the Big 10. He's been around elite recruiting & elite kids & how their recruitments play out.Quote:

I think O leaving would have a major effect on whether Emery ends up at LSU.Quote:

There is a difference IMO & it's not really fair to Moorhead to expect him to know EVERYTHING about recruiting this region before taking the job.
