It's well documented that Monken bounces ideas off Bobo and Bobo is a contributor to their offense.

Because some folks don't keep up with what's going on but insist on posting a link as soon as they see something, some think their "hot take" needs its own thread instead of responding to ones that are already up, some are as sharp as marshmallows, and some are all three. It's a much bigger problem on certain other boards.
I really wish he would stop covering State sports. I don’t blame CZA for being very mad about this. Auburn seems like a better fit for him
I cannot believe we are actually thinking about Bobo, but to be honest, the fact that we don't have a hire and he is an analyst with UGA, does give me the slightest hint of concern.
If the athletic dept has this thing so buttoned up how do you guys know the hire is not coming from the game tonight?
I like the staff additions he has made so far, and that he is getting transfers back to us that are from MS. That will be a great emphasis going forward. I know we need more than just MS, but he seems to get that the state has the diamonds in the rough, and raw talent. Reminds me of Mullen but without the laziness in recruiting.
Or.....and this is controversial......we could stop focusing on MS so damn much and focus a little more on other areas like Atlanta, DFW, Houston, Nashville, Baton Rouge, Miami, Birmingham. Our school is located in MS. You don't have to hire a MS centric staff to be able to recruit the state unless you have hired the worst recruiters on God's green earth. Our last staff had damn near ZERO ties to MS and we recruited just fine.
The state of Alabama produces better players than Mississippi by and large. However, I don't see Alabama or Auburn freaking out because their staffs don't have a bunch of AL recruiters on them. The generally have one or at the most two guys on staff that know the area. Same with Georgia. To take the next step we have to get out of this we have to recruit MS kids mindset. Go get the best players. If they happen to be from Bolivar Co. then great. But if they're from Miami Northwestern or Duncanville then don't go recruit the kid from Lake Cormorant because you might be able to develop him in 3 years.
Every time I check this board I expect this topic to die, but there it is. Like a damn cockroach.
