I would still love to get Will Ferrell to come in character. The crowd would go nuts and the GD crew wouldn't stop laughing. I'm ok with Freeman or Grisham though.

I feel that this may be appropriate to consider...

Start @ around 0:48 and let it run.

I have my sources... Don't let him fool you into thinking he gets in the game with a media passQuote:

This is the only reason I would be against it. I know i have read of him being in ads and going to games and other events there. and yes I know he has donated money to our vet school.Quote:

Whoever it is, everyone on set must have a "swag chalice"
I still have Jerry Rice as my top (Starkville born and his mother still lives here and he frequently visits), BUT.... I could dig Morgan Freeman!
We could get Lorde

I heard a rumor that Snoop Dogg was in Starkville last night.
I watched this episode last night, I love RandyQuote:

Of all of the names (rumors) I've seen, I would rank them like this:Quote:

We're (the MSU fanbase) already fired up. I may be wrong but I think a guest picker should lure those in who may not otherwise watch or at least wouldn't watch as long. It'll be the fans creating pre-game and game atmosphere along with the play of the team that will sell our university, not the guest picker. The guest picker should hopefully draw viewers in and then it's up to US to keep them here.
