I would imagine that most schools- especially a school like MSU that has majors like architecture and construction management, etc. probably build houses for those coaches for very little if any charge to the coach.Quote:

The number of people on numerous State message boards who get completely offended when someone brings up Kiffin leaving Oxford is astounding. It further exemplifies why State will always be a mid-program at best.
Mods still haven?t updated the title. Bizarre

It was the same annoying thing with Mullen but the difference was Mullen actually was constantly shopping and is now doing the same thing at UNLV. Our fans kept saying the same thing about Beard leaving for this job or that job and it was just getting annoying. Similar to Kiffin, he is not leaving unless its Kansas, UK, UNC or Duke.Quote:

Why we bend the knee like that to them on these kinda threads is baffling!Quote:

Laser being beating om again, Mullen made me crazy but when he first came that was his focus.....and it worked.....JMHO..
MSU fans need an attitude adjustment more than a journalism school.Quote:

The last night I was in Oxford was the night that the Hugh Freeze news broke. I was eating dinner with a few friends at an eatery. Small children and grown men were openly weeping. It was glorious.Quote:

With the cost of business rising by the day, I think about what's going to happen to the program. We will see if we can get one more W this year. The misery level could be at a choking point after Thanksgiving weekend.
