At the end of the day.....Moorhead is/was not that convincing.....he needs to do a self evaluation and make some serious ass changes or we will have to kick him to the curb in short orderQuote:

I'll make this statement because I'm not gonna stick around for the melt & complaining. Im not running or hiding it's the internet. I'm in too good of a mood this morning. We missed a great chance this class to really make a mark. This class isn't a failure or bust but it's definitely not the big class we wanted or more importantly needed. This is recruiting it's not for the weak. I'll be disappointed today but tomorrow I'll be right back looking at 2020 guys. Recruiting is my passion not my life so I won't be losing my mind over it (Sorry Shotgun). People have every right to be disappointed. I said wait til the end & if the class isn't up to par by all means go off. Well go off guys. Later!
Hopefully Joe is on the phone with Lawrence.....man this sucks
Good post bro.Quote:

Underwhelming 2018 season and a very underwhelming recruiting season AND ticket prices went up!Quote:

We were naive to think OM would allow us to flip a recruit.
I picked a great time to get my season tickets back for the first time since 2014...........Quote:

I'm right there with you. The decisions of 18 year old kids should not affect people like this, me included. It's time to accept the fact that MSU is a solid 7-8 win program that will never finish top 10 in recruiting or win a NC. It's just the way it is. And that's okay. We can still enjoy ourselves and cheer the the dogs. On to baseball season.Quote:

I don't understand why we have these same posts about being disappointed year after year. You know it is coming before it ever happens don't get so worked up over it. Enjoy the great seasons when we have them and support the program when we are down as that is when support is most needed.
It's not near my life either.Quote:

Hey but at least he can make a sentence that includes y'all, fixin to, and picture made (If you were at the road dawgs tour you know what I'm talking about)Quote:

They are not having a good day.
Moorhead signed a good OL & DL class and got his QB he wanted....Mullen literally did the exact same thing but some of us will flip absolute shit because they will finish ahead of us in imaginary computer rankings that are flawed. But carry on.Quote:

I think OM is back to cheating. The Cox commitment for them is odd. Something smells
Pickering just signed if anyone is interested.
Huge. Absolutely hugeQuote:

From someone who has seen the difference, you can believe me or not, Moorhead is better and its not close. There's not much more we could have done (within the law) to get Mingo or anyone else.Quote:
