    he was on the team when we ran the wishbone--he was a slow ass pocket passer... some of y'all might need to brush up on MSU history.

    TC, I will admit freely that I almost always have to google most anything MSU/OM/sports pre 1980. That?s why I like threads like these and posters like you to help me and others brush up on our MSU history.
    😂 I should have just asked you to lay it out. You are quite the historian, and for now, I guess rankings will be-
    1. OM
    2. USM
    3. MSU
    4. Alcorn
    BUT, as we have a QB that released a country album, that has to be worth something.

    Well, OM had a QB who turned into a songwrite. He wrote "Midnight Train to Georgia" and that's a damn fine one...thx

    That’s because I’m old.. didn’t mention Rockey winning player of the year in the SEC. Or Don Smith or My favorite QB John Bond. How about the QB that won more games than any other MSU QB WAyne Madkin.

    I think College QB play is very subjective, so I was looking for Mississippi College QBs that played in the professional leagues, mainly NFL.
    Those are very good QBs for us though. Personally, I think Madkin might be the most under appreciated Dawg of all time.

    Didn't Don Smith record a SB TD?

    Mississippi has an awesome collection of athletes, musicians & authors. Unsurpassed from a percentage standpoint IMO.
