Not at the skill spots. Skill spots are deeper. We don't have the defensive talent next round or as many good OL.

Moore - Aub
Mingo as of right now OM and I don?t look for that to change
Emerson- Stste

so we are saying that our staff followed up a mediocre season by not closing in December followed by not closing in February.....doesn't instill much confidence as we are starting to develop a pattern....I'll go now

Agree, don't throw in the towel just yet.

State fans are quitters. Hard to break such a long and storied habit.

Less drama = more MSU commits

Agree there may not be the same number of players, but still plenty talented.

We won't get close to 16 next year, but we all know the number of 4 stars will change between now and signing day. Hell the Brandon QB isn't rated yet.

To some folks, a 20ish finish is great and will lead to more 6-8 Win seasons which they are thrilled with. To others, a 20ish finish means near the bottom of the league and while 6-8 wins is good, they know we won't be competing for any Titles or Sugar Bowls with 20ish classes more than likely, so they're upset we aren't taking a step forward in a big MS recruiting year.
Neither of these people are wrong...they just have different hopes and expectations for the program. As soon as everybody can agree that neither of these opinions is wrong, the quicker we can discuss recruiting instead of discussing melting vs not melting.

I'm not sure posts like this are allowed within 24 hours of signing day. Way too rational. GTSOH.

Great post - I'm not sure why this is so hard for some to understand.

I think Moore comes back around. He wouldn't have reached back out to us if he wasn't seriously considering it

They can change the other way too, so I think at the moment is the best place to be

Giving up on Moorhead and this recruiting cycle for the most part. It's just a MSU way of life.

That's like saying Browns fans are always quick to write off super bowl hopes. There's a precedent

Don't know what you mean by "quitters." State fans just see disappointment year after year and it gets old. Most State fans still support their team, however, hoping that someday we can return to the SEC Championship again.

It's with everything for the most part. I'm not immune to it either. It's a habitual way of thinking for our fans. Baseball and now maybe women's basketball is the exception.

Hopefully we get a good surprise tomorrow. I certainly never expected Simmons when we got him.

I would say the opposite. Maybe we should quit caring so much but we don't.

It's extremely easy to get frustrated. Everyone wants to win, I think we just all express it in different ways. The differing views on here by so many good posters is what makes this board so great. Heck if we all thought the same way it wouldn't be so entertaining. I prefer to let things play out, before reacting, but I understand the angst of others who don't. Last years mens basketball and baseball season is one of the reasons I like to see things play out to their end, cause you never know what can happen.

Hard to have expectations of winning the SEC and being realistic that it likely won't happen.
