There was a song written(not rap but something modern), about the players on the team. Names of the players in the song. Very cool thing. The older Kimdiche brother was on the team and he was named in it.

Now.... imagine being a recruit on the sideline hearing that played during a TV timeout, and the crowd cheering it.

Is there just group think at MSU or what? I feel like Byrne would have taken us in a proactive direction, but seems Cohen hire slowed down on creativity.

I remember the "Feed Moncrief" (or whoever the overhyped WR was that year) song. It was pretty cool. We could barely get a "Rowdy, Rowdy, Rowdy" cheer going at the Dude.

We have to get someone from the outside to revamp our game day and in stadium experience. OM is far ahead of us.

We really do. Bad to the bone, maroon/white, "another T" and even the SNL skit is just played out. I know timing is not great (inflation, etc.) but we have to bowl in the stadium. I mean we have glorified duck blinds in the endzone for goodness sake. I understand the attendance argument (we don't need more seats) but there are ways to bowl in without increasing capacity. Make all lower-level seat chairbacks (North Carolina did it recently) or heck, make the decks just premium seating (or whatever we call those contraptions up there on the west side). On TV, Ole Miss stadium looks better because it's bowled in. Ours is nicer in person, no doubt about that, but 90% of people only see what ESPN shows them.

I understand the argument to save money, but if there was ever a time to make sure we have everything dialed in, it's TODAY with all the conference expansion and realignments setting things up for the next 100 years and beyond.

Somebody check me on this but I think this year Ole Miss has more out of state than in state students. A lot of kids who can?t get in to UGA or Texas use UM as their back up school.

And??? I have heard that forever and I have came to the conclusion that it does matter ONE BIT. Hell, we need to start recruiting Atlanta, Dallas, Houston, Birmingham, and Charlotte a hell of a lot harder.

I'm pretty sure his kid goes there. Lets not act like Chuck Liddell is f@cking Conor McGregor.

I didn't even know Liddell was still alive.

Some need to quit crying about a cheesy OM drone fly over. We do better stuff every game with our flyovers. The US flag paratrooper thing at Bama game was super cool. Drones are nothing.

MSU can't show our drone stuff because it is secret US gov stuff.

OM ain't got jack on us. People need to quit crying like a baby cause OM has won a few more games than us. Who cares. We'll beat them again soon and you'll forget about all this stuff. Remember last year OM was undefeated and no one could beat them? We still own them in baseball too as bad as we are. And basketball too. Dang near anything.

Their stadium atmosphere is miles better than us. People are not whining because they have won more than us, which they have. Our gripes and complaints are because they are cutting edge with everything they do and we are stick in 1987 with everything we do. Hell our stadium speakers are from 2008.

Uhh, against LSU they had the same paratrooper thing and the flag on their guy didn't touch the ground (according to a buddy of mine who attended that game).

Brand new health system in the wait behind NDAs??.It?s all ready and many more?.WW3 just started, the fake nuke standoff is coming and much more. Once they scare every single person on earth, the truth will be told and NDAs lifted. A whole new world is right around the corner.

As far as our problems, they are many and deep, but it won?t matter real soon.

Cool story

Isn?t the Portnoy thing is against the new NIL rules?

No it is fine because they are not associated with gambling anymore and he is doing it with his watch company. However, those watches are almost $2500. I do not think this is going to make as big of a dent as Portnoy thinks it is. He is also doing it as a bit to try and get under the skin of Brandon Walker.

Yep! Why else would he be taking $1500/unit out of his own pocket. He must have one helluva markup on those things.

Oh from what I've read, they're trash watches. But the optics of this is huge for Ole Miss. I don't think anybody would argue they are leaps ahead of us.

Atmosphere is better due to winning. 2014 our atmosphere was just fine.

You mean the cutting edge tarps they had in bleachers that year? Their stadium isn't near as good as ours. We've done many cutting edge things but no one wants to acknowledge it.

Winning creates atmosphere. Sure are their some things we can improve on yes but the whinning is pathetic and like a sissy girl. Look at last 12 years of football, I'm not sure they have won more than us either - basically even - not counting this year.

OM is riding high right now with Kiffin like we were with Mullen and it sucks. That is it in a nut shell. Fine to have the we need to improve argument which I have no issue.

Ah, and who did it first? MSU did. Yeah they can hire the same people we can. We can do the drone thing if we want to. Then people would complain because OM did it first.

Wait, it's a negative for State that the paratrooper allowed the flag to touch the ground? I mean what's your point with that part of the post?
