I don't want to hear from a damn thing from an idiot running around here crowing about how bad Leach was, that only thinks Arnett is good because he get's to be butt buddies with Arnett.

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to CoachT14 again.

I do think we have a couple of really good playmakers committed, especially Stonka, but we are really lacking in the trenches. I am worried that we are going to be forced to go JUCO and Portal to get OL and DL for next year.

We have no choice. And if we didn't, those complaining would say why the hell didn't we when we knew we needed help? Can't win. Not with morons.

"You said Arnett was winning 8-10 this year. I don't wanna hear a thing about anyone else making shit up from you."

I can't read into your mind what you meant, that very well may be true, but the above quote is exactly what you posted about.

what's even funnier is him making up more shit that I said Arnett would win as many as 10 this year

His buddy will likely be fired as well. He should be fired. I'm not sure he brings anything to the table that benefits Mississippi State.

What do you want us to do?? Sign 30 hs guys and forget the portal and juco and just try to suck next year?? You'd be the first one saying they should have known the roster and fixed it. That's what they are trying to do. Will it be enough? Idk. But they are trying. Or just bitch just to bitch then change your position when the time comes. That's how to roll.

My biggest issue is us relying so much on JUCO before the portal even starts. We have 14 high school players committed right now. How many more are we expected to add? 2-3 maybe? What's going to happen 3-4 years from now? We're going to blame Arnett and Peterson because they're gone and we have to rely on the portal again.

The biggest thing is COVID got our numbers out of whack. We have some guys that could come back next year and mitigate things somewhat but we won't know for another month.

Meanwhile our HS QB is a Chris Relf clone, we can't get any running backs to commit despite a really good one being 10 miles from campus and handing the ball off 30 times a game, offensive line looks status quo outside of Lewis, we have one good LB and we're still struggling to recruit DB.

We should sign no fewer than 20 high school prospects.

Leach was a horrible recruiter ... looks about consistent to me LOL. The Home Boys doing great!! And they got all the DLinemen they really wanted in this class. We'll see how that turns out too.

We are getting those for depth purposes. Some might can start. But mostly depth. Portal guys cost way most than juco guys. As for the 20. We don't have room. We are looking at two portal qb. Portal here portal there. Only so many spots. Not gonna change your mind but that's the reasoning.

Depth purposes for a team that has been recruiting poorly? OK. I know you are getting your info from the coaches but this is exactly my problem with them. They talk out of both sides of their of their mouth. If we're not recruiting well then we need to find impact players- that's more than likely coming from the portal. The only time we need bodies for "depth purposes" is if we have an absolutely loaded team and just need a few guys to rotate in. That's not the case here.

And I know you said we are going to use the portal some- just so you know I'm not speaking in absolutes here. But we're using way too many JUCO guys. And it's because this group isn't good at identifying and recruiting the portal. So they're going back to what they're comfortable with. JUCO has been the MSU band aid for years.

This isn't really too surprising because our staff is basically made up of recruiters from previous staffs that couldn't recruit.

Then again MSU has never really been all in on recruiting anyway and this group isn't going to change that.

If you don't think we need depth then I can't help you. Coming from a team that has 2 dl out and we've been short there all year. Play 2 dl at a time in 2 different games bc we didn't have enough bodies of decent players. Point of the depth remark is , juco is a place to get good players. We hope to get better in the portal but can't put all our eggs in that basket. Some might start.

How do you know they can't identify guys in the portal?? Based on last year?? Just wow.

13/14 in the SEC. That'll give you the excuse that everyone is more talented when ZA and the homeboys lose, though.

ETA: Sorry I forgot two more teams will be joining the SEC, so I guess we are currently 14/15...

I think we need people that can make an instant impact.

How do you know they can? They haven't yet so why am I supposed to have blind faith that they can when they struggle with high school recruiting? Criticize Dudek and Leach all you want but they found two good safeties in the portal in Matthews and Green and they got Randy Charlton. Also got Biscardi who was a solid kicker. Lasoya has been solid and started on the o-line and Cole Smith has been a starter.

Who is our impact portal guy this year? Goede? This group couldn't even pull a quality TE that was eligible despite us having literally zero on the roster. They also grossly misevaluated our needs on edge rushers and at LB.

Todd ... give it up. This staff is severely hampered by every little thing Leach did. They probably can't even take a shit in the athletic facilities cause Leach clogged up all the damn toilets taking dumps in them. We got no talent, stupid players, all the fans are stupid and don't have jobs above being taco makers, and now this staff can't take a shit cause of Leach either. Which probably means what??? And ALL of this is because of Leach.

Don't concern yourself tho. Once they get all of Leach's screwups corrected, we gonna be good. You just watch ... oh and shut up too. Cause you dumb ****

And maybe they won't be so full of shit either once they unclog the toilets Leach clogged up. That should be a load off their minds.

Can you read??? Yea we need instant impact. Get that via the portal. Don't know how else to say it. Don't know why I even respond to you. Nothing gonnna make you happy. Have fun. Blow your trumpet.

Congrats for the dumbest post of the day. And that's tough. Enjoy boys. Hope we win tomorrow and you non fans cry. If not we can all cheer on our next coach. Until he sucks or doesn't run the air raid. I'll support him til we fire his ass too. But carry on I'm done w you clowns.

Whatever. Sorta like most of you were when Leach was coaching. Not sure about you specifically on that one tho. I hung with JoMo longer than I should have trying to give him a chance even when I realized how bad he was. This is worse.

I was a Leach fan not just an AR fan. And that's part of what's pissing me off cause I was giving this crew a chance, till I knew how bad it was. And y'all keep trying to lump anyone who questions you or disagrees with you in with KB and BSD, and I don't agree with them on hardly nothing at all.

All the excuse makers are like a bunch of our RINO elected reps. Tell you one thing and then do another. As Todd said, talk outta both sides of your mouth.

ETA: Scooba I was using RINOs as an example, not making a political statement of any kind.

I'm sorry your friends on the coaching staff feed you bullshit. Apparently like them you don't get it either. We're wasting spots on "depth" that we could use for impact players. And I know they're feeding you bullshit because Rosebowl is saying the same thing about "depth pieces". I'm not even disagreeing with you- you're just the messenger and I know deep down inside you know this is a dumpster fire whether you want to say it now or later or not.

Absolutely wrong about nothing gonnnnnna make me happy. When this staff is fired in a month and if we hire a real coaching staff instead of a bunch of lying rednecks running our football program like a 6A high school in Mississippi I'll be elated to watch some modern football again.

As it is we've gone from Mike Leach's team to the biggest joke in the college football world- Iowa of the SEC.

You can say I'm never happy- but I was right about Dan and his recruiting and I am right about this staff and have been since they've been hired. Not saying that takes special talent or anything- the red flags were there all along not to mention this staff making every same "MSU football mistake" over again from drastically changing the offense with personnel that doesn't fit it to now over relying on JUCO's.

State fans, it's ok to not be ok. Get help.

I was driving down today and tried to listen to a State podcast.... my gosh. I switched over to 100.9 The Tide.
