    He was there, one of the first ones out. Gave my son a high five.

    Why even post crap like this? Sometimes I think it?s all about you, not MSU. This needs to be deleted, but I know it won’t be.

    Because it’s true and the NCAA doesn’t give a shit as long as you stay in your lane.

    And as long as the SEC has refs, we will be kept in our lane.

    Also I do it to try and educate people.

    You know why we didn’t get Marlon Humphrey- 5 star DB? The kid that wanted to go somewhere else and make a name for himself instead of being Bobby Humphrey’s Son at Bama? Because Bobby would lose his job if Humphrey had signed with us. People need to understand it’s not just about picking a school with these kids- it’s a business decision that affects them and their families

    People DO understand it. Loose lips sink ships.

    We've already had people in this thread said they would rather lose than operate like other SEC schools- they obviously didnt understand it.
    Many Stands supporters would be shocked at his recruiting tactics. The fact is that too many in our fanbase are naive amd not doing their part to help our teams be the best they can be.

    Nobody is being loose. Nothing specific is being talked about. All thats being said is that we do indeed operate in some of the same ways that other SEC programs do.

    I agree w this. State people love to claim the moral high ground, and thats great. We should all strive for that in life.

    But as the great Bear Bryant wrote in his book ''If others were doing it I would tell my boosters to match the competition.''

    Im not calling for cheating, esp to the extent OM did but....... Im saying do what we have to do.

    Exactly. Our fans are too nice and incredibly na?ve.

    There's a fine line between ethics and getting bullied and not doing anything about it. If you don't hit the bully back they're going to keep taking advantage of you.
