I don't know why our fans got upset about the way they did the announcement. It was a special moment that deserves celebration but as usual something negative is made of something positive. This just isn't our fans tho. It's the way the world seems to be nowadays.Quote:

This. I do believe it's a small but vocal contingent, then you have the baseball crowd (lol), then you have a small contingentnt that sees the importance of PR and pushing the program into the 21st Century...and the rest don't care. They just show up for a hot dog and overpriced beer.Quote:

But none of it was ever really sustainable.
I actually think NIL and the portal are good things for MSU. But MSU has to believe that those are good things for MSU. Indiana has a worse football history than MSU. They're probably going to win a NC. Ole Miss is relatively similar to us. If Lane Kiffin was our coach would he have won at a similar clip? Probably so. And the only reason I think he might not have is because our schedule would have been more difficult. Texas Tech? They had to rely on Leach's wizardry at one time just like MSU. And sure, they have a billionaire but they're still in the same recruiting territory as Texas and A&M. In one offseason we have completely rebuilt our secondary and most of our DL, and our OL. And at the same time we retained all of our key players.
I?ve always made fun of those guys?..craves attention, little dick, about as manly as a clitoris, and the last person you would want to go to war with in this world! It?s all about perception, and perception can be as much an enemy as it can be an asset. I prefer a real man?s approach?..don?t ever be a ***** regardless of the circumstances!Quote:

Yeah, it's screwed up and not sustainable for the sport.
Did he make the Oregon trip or is he still in BR like some are reporting?
He's in BR. He is home
So you?re saying LSU is going to land him when it?s all said and done?Quote:
