    Hiring and Firing Head Football Coaches or admonishing Schools for hiring against their preferences isn?t one of them.

    All the Schools have certain autonomy to staff all of their departments.
    There is nothing wrong with the SEC Office telling a school that if you hire so and so it is not in the best interest in your being a member of the SEC. The SEC Office can help a member school or they can treat them as a stepchild if they hired somebody that the SEC had problems with before and they did not want that coach back in the SEC.

But rumors start for a reason.

    ***edited to add***- sometimes kids and parents dont want to admit to people they know that they are basically up for being bought and paid for. That they are willing to be sold to the highest bidder. Keep that in mind about athletes today.

    My history aint bad over the 18 years either and why this thread has 19K views. IYOK is a very good State poster. Top notch. But he said Polk wasnt leaving last year after I posted it and he got burned on it. It happens. Rumors turn out to be BS, things change on a dime, all that crap. It is what it is. But we still have State fans that believe Stands sat Moultrie for 3 games for a knee problem a week after I posted he failed another drug test. Gullible people will soak up the spin because they want to believe it

    Well, there’s another word for what that is and it’s not ‘athlete’.

    Just one WR and QB? In this day and age, that's pretty darn good. I would expect that a lot. We take lots of WR's and only so many play.

    QB's? If they expect a starting spot, they will most likely have to drop out of P5. Will would be crazy to leave for another team unless he loses his starting gig. There might be some P5 teams give them a scholarship to have a chance at an open spot but nothing guaranteed with no game tape.

    maybe, maybe not ... depends on if a smart lawyer can prove a defamation suit
    OXFORD, Miss. (WTVA) - Ole Miss campus police ask students to behave at future baseball games following a recent incident.
    The university said students were reportedly throwing rocks at Georgia baseball players during last weekend's series.

    I heard a rumor that we're gonna beat the **** outta Georgia.

    - Message sent from Engineering Row while taking a walk through the greatest college campus in America

    I can neither confirm nor deny the Kennum allegations at this time.

    Speaking of IYOK, he doesn't post info on this board based on rumors, or to get attention. Yeah, things can change but when he posts or has posted something it is based upon what the situation is currently, or was at the time and not on some rumor. Over the years I think he has posted the most viable and accurate info on this board concerning our football program.

    Completely agree. IYOK is the #1 most reliable on this site, and it's not very close.
