I would like to have Dillion Johnson back simply because he is a great running back but if it destroys team chemistry , I do not want him back.
Dillion would do great in a Barbay offense but Simeon price is very good as well
A 3 headed monster of
Marks
Johnson
Price
Will be very very hard for a defense not named bama or LSU on our schedule to stop.
We would beat ole miss by 30 simply by running the ball.
DJ spent a lot of the weekend with Price and Freddy Roberson, the new transfer WR commit. I think that tells you all you need to know what the players and coaches think about DJ being around.Quote:

I love Arnett but?there is some truth to this. Arnett didnt call all the shots. At the very least he was influenced by some new voices that werent investedQuote:

YEP! It's a problem literally every offseason no matter who our coach has been.Quote:

There is a time and place for brutal honesty. If a coach goes on twitter and says every true thing about players, that is just stupid even if it is true.Quote:

I don't know about assistants. I know Spurrier and Hollinghead knew they weren't coming back. Hollinghead probably was gone even if Leach had lived. He's a rising star in the profession as you know.Quote:

I just hope Barbay actually adapts to our players but if people think that running the ball a few more times, running some play action and running a QB sneak under center is going to beat Alabama and LSU they're wrong.
Well Leach and Arnett never went on Twitter about any player or anything regarding scheme or players ability unless it's to congratulate them on a win.Quote:

Now how did Arnet lie per other poster.
What stuff did Leach take outside the locker room? Saying the team had a bad practice? When he called the team out he called the team out or position group out- not an individual player.Quote:

Was he helping host the EW WR, who referred to him as a MSU RB or was DJ also a visitor? Anyone know what is really going on? Thanks.
Arnett lied to the players he was recruiting to keep them in the boat. Pittman made the comment that he was told we were keeping the same scheme.Quote:

Transfer recruiting visits are a little different. They don't have hosts per se. They generally just hang out with some of the team members. Dillon was probably just hanging out with them as well. He wasn't on any kind of visit though. I mean Dillon is still in Starkville as of this weekend. I get the feeling he will end up staying through Spring Practice and then deciding what he wants to do. If I were him, I'd transfer. Price is better than him and he's probably better than Marks as well.Quote:

Thanks. Didn't understand comments made by EW WR. Portal recruiting is a different animal that I could have lived without.Quote:

J Wash did a hell of a job keeping him in the boat. All the Texas schools tried to get in on him throughout the season and especially after Mike's death.Quote:
