Don't remember who said it yesterday, but "to win, sometimes you've got to lose"...which is why so many posters were nervous about the OM game defining how we handled Joe. Now that we've won, we're going to lose in the long run. Sickening.

But hey, it was really embarrassing for OM, so maybe we should hang a ****ing banner....because that's all that matters to us.

We have the ultimate example of that in Liverpool. Most costly Battle for the Golden Egg victory EVAH.

Yep. And Jughead will flirt with 6-6 due to another weak ass schedule. If he flukes into another W over Northern Miss, we'll be right back here doing the exact same cluster17 of a song and dance this time next year. Because our admin definitely won't have the balls to fire Jughead midseason. That's what a real P5 program would do. But the Virginia Slims proved today we aren't a real P5 program.

Or he gets on a little run and wins every game we supposed to this next year, getting us to 8-4. Again, maybe we will enter the year with all 85 schollies and we have to make fundamental changes to HOW we coach practices, s&c, and gamedays.

A clear message was sent to the fanbase today. The admin and certain boosters are completely happy with 6-7 wins as a ceiling and an egg bowl win and we as fans should be happy to compete for the viagra/stay free bowl game each year. Mediocrity is the new high!

Maybe Chizik was the only coach that take the job at the moment. And our Admin decided to stick with Jo.

After the bullshit rumors here..... I don?t believe for a second Napier or Norvell were interested at this time.

I would love for that to happen, just don't think it will. You can tell Joe isn't the guy because of the little things we do poorly....and there are a lot of em. Not to mention his puketastic offense, and he's supposedly "tha guru", when he takes his coaching pills, obviously...

Seriously, this couldn't be more clear.

Yep, never mind that our schedule is set for a floor of 5 wins every year. And Never mind that we looked like complete shit in all 6 of our losses.

But we've got Egg Bowl memories forever, CC!!! Way more important than national relevance.***

I'm laughing at you. You sound exactly like those Ole Miss idiots trying to convince themselves that LSU is their Real rival and the Egg. Bowl doesn't matter. You and your buddies.are exactly like them. Th FACT is that to 99% of our fan base the Egg Bowl is and always will matter more than any other game. That is how it should be. It IS the most important game, for many reasons. It IS the first and most important measuring stick. Anyone that denies that is delusional, in several different ways. Unlike you miserable people I'm pretty dang happy and enjoying life today. I haven't had but one our two Rebs even mention the game to me, and those only to say how embarrassed they are over what happened. It wouldn't be that way if they had won. I've never seen them this quiet after the Egg EVER. It's glorious.

This is one of the dumbest statements I have ever seen in this board, and that's saying something. Y'all have gone insane.

This is exactly right, the worst part is that Starkville is going to suffer too.

So we get approx. $40M a year (I think, could be high) from SECN, and we can't do a buyout? If that is the case, we should drop football.

I don't believe that a G5 coach wouldn't jump at the chance to immediately go from $1M a year to $3M, the opportunity to coach in the SEC, a guarantee of several million $$$ in buyout if he's fired, a guarantee of $4M a year if he's mildly successful, and a guarantee of a Blue Blood job if he does really well.

Remember, coaches are a arrogant cocky bunch and they tend to think they can succeed. Moreover, G5 coaches don't get better job than us unless they go 12-0 like Frost or Herman. Look at Neil Brown- had we hired him he'd be making 3.5M at an SEC school with top 25 talent. Instead a year later he has to take the WV job making less. Scatterfield is at a worse program than us after being ignored for a season or 2, Clark was passed up, Norvell has been passed up for years now... G5 coaches aren't as picky as you'd think. Maybe the top 1 in a year but the other 2-3 really solid G5 coaches would jump at our job

Well, we had to build a baseball stadium. And golf club houses, and pay for all the other sports. I was told over a month ago the money wasn't there. Y'all didn't want to hear it.

Oh I'm sure we could get the kind of coach that would do it for that amount of money no matter how we treated his predecessor.

I truly don?t know if the donors couldn?t come together on a buyout, or Cohen and Keenum really believe in this guy, but I do believe we will be looking for a new HC along with OM next year. I?m speechless right now, stunned beyond belief that we are giving this guy a pass with all of the talent he?s mismanaged....in complete disbelief.

OM, that has lost 7 out of the last 11 Egg Bowls, has won 9 games in 2 years and hasn't been to a bowl since 2015 is what??? Quit whining and being stupid my man.
