and a much bigger deal
Gotta love the Rebs and their subjective rankings vs on the field results
"i don't think it SHOULD be this way, but even if they win the college world series, our
recruiting class is a bigger story than their national championship."
Of course it should. In sports subjective rankings on what players could possibly be is always more important than what players actually do on the field.Quote:

And for them it is. Pretty obvious that for a lot of Bears football recruiting title > football title. They are just that into it and its something that they can actually get involved with and "help".Quote:

This ridiculousness is going to be followed closely to "the baseball stadium was too big" and "the high seeds got knocked out"
Well....
Scoreboard!

Pretty funny how a few years ago they were saying all that mattered was football and baseball and now they have decided that all that matters is football and basketball. Just whatever is convenient for them. I hope we beat the shit out of them next season.
I know of a Ole Miss booster, who along with other boosters, wrote a letter to the AD calling for Bianco's head at the end of this season. Their basketball 'success' will be very short-lived as long as Andy Kennedy is roaming the sidelines.
Bianco needs to go, he is a pathetic excuse of a coach and ole miss is too good for him and they will get the best coach in America to come there for next season because they can do much better.
I'm sure this is the line all of your ole miss acquaintances will use once they piss on the best thing their baseball program has ever seen.
Bianco brought unprecedented success and program expansion. He should stay as long as he wants.
There they were in 2009 pumped for a big season and Ron Polk has left MSU and the program is in shambles. All of the sudden they become big baseball fans. Now State is back and and in just a few short years Cohen has trumped what Bianco has done. So naturally they are going to turn to something they perceive to be ahead in - football recruiting. Of course they also think our football program is about to hit the skids as they rise to the top. We'll see if Freeze can do to Mullen what Cohen did to Bianco. Doubtful.
What is a spirit anyway? Isn't that a gay fruity drink?
Btw I'm new to the board fellas. Looking forward to some good sports discussion and debate.
Welcome, batman.
Another good one is there is a thread on Nafoom claiming Freeze has already passed Mullen by because Phil Steele has them rated higher in his preseason mag.
I guess we shouldn't even play the games this year.
Gordan on the sports board? Slow day politically?Quote:

Come on guys they're coming off the greatest 7-6 season in the history of sports. Show them some respect
their recruiting class that was 3rd in the SEC West is better than a NC?
did ricco sanders sign up?
Edit - the spirit is the ole miss spirit message board
As long as he is making regionals, they can't fire him.Quote:

Well, obviously. Pass me the Zima.Quote:

Yes he is and he wont ever have the discipline problems Stands had. So they have to wait for him to slip up- which could very well be next year. They likely will not get more than 13-14 SEC wins next year and will likely be on the bubbleQuote:

They are the ones that fired Cutcliffe after having a down year the season after he lost the number one pick and won the Cotton Bowl.Quote:

All this potential of a 2014 signing class versus a team presently playing in the College World Series reminds me of an old joke:
An eight year old son asks his father "what is the difference between Potential and Reality"
His father turns to his wife and asks "would you sleep with the president for one million dollars?"
The wife "of course i would not pass up on that opportunity"
His father turns to his daughter "would you sleep with Brad Pitt for one million dollars?
The daughter replies "Yes I would"
Finally the Father turns to his youngest son and says "You see son, potentially we are living with two millionaires but in
reality we are living with 2 prostitutes"
Are you serious? Could you provide a link?Quote:
