    When most fans cant name 5 players on the team now- that's what it's become

    College football is dying a very fast death. But MSU football is already dead. Not many even give a shit anymore. I had no idea spring game was coming up. Forgot about it.

    Alabama and Oklahoma had hardly anyone at their spring games Saturday, it's not just us. They are just practices at this point.

    Too many thinking Play-Offs in December? Devalued regular season and preseason? All this when generally 3 or 4 teams are championship quality? What is the end game evolution of this new environment?

    I really do not know what you are going to learn at the spring game. I really think we need to just go to what Ole Miss did. Fan Day with a Q/A with Lebby.

    Question from crowd:
    Hey Corch Lenny
    What was it about your DC that made you keep him? Was it the way he looked at you in corch?s meeting?

    And that is why we cannot do stuff like that because our fan base will ask stupid ass questions like why did you not fire your DC.

    Yes indeed a stupid a$$ question given the time and place but would it not still be a valid question he should be able answer to give the guy in the crowd hope that better defensive days are ahead?

    It's a valid question when it's coming from the AD. Not when it's Bob from Bogue Chitto who hasn't been to a game in 5 years but tries to incite a riot on Twitter every time we throw it when he's screaming at the tv to run it.

    But what if that question is asked by Steve from Starkville? He?s a better dude than Bob from Bogue Chitto could ever be

    NIL has ruined the college game in my opinion. No loyalty to the school anymore.

    He'd tell me to 17 squarely off and rightfully so. Just as he should anyone not named Zac Selmon, Mark Keenum, or with a last name of Howard, McKinnis, Rula, Adkerson, Jenkins, or someone who's donated mid 7 figures.

    This made me think about Jackie taking calls after the games. Even as a teenager I would dread the cringe questions I was about to hear. Credit to the Kang for having the nerve to take calls after wins AND losses.

    And who scheduled it Easter weekend - a day before Easter? Most people have other plans than driving to Starkville for an intra-team scrimmage.

    Honestly that was the best time. You have a night baseball game so it will not interfere with baseball. Otherwise you would have 1000-2000 people there. Now you might get to 3-4K

    Super Bulldog Weekend is always dictated by the SEC baseball schedule
