Makes no difference. Just be a fan instead of bitching before we ever play a game under the staff
    Thank you. Well stated. He wasn't this miserable years ago. This is embarrassing for him.

I don't blame our coaches for drops, that's on the receivers.

    Bumphis has no recruiting ties in the area and he's not known as a good recruiter, and playing in MS doesn't give you recruiting ties in the area. It means you're known at one school. Kids these don't remember Mississippi State WRs from 12 years ago. Also, his receivers at Utah never impressed me. They got ZERO separation in the games I watched them and their blocking was average against teams with a pulse.
    Posting shit you have zero knowledge about..
    ask Coach Whiitingham how good a coach and recruiter Bump is..
    I know for a fact what he would say

    Friend/Schmidt will also prove to be better than Miller would have been in this system.

    I like that Arnett has the balls to change the offensive philosophy. Anyone that doesn?t get behind that can just moan and pout about it.

    This staff is a really good staff top to bottom.

    It's got a combination of experience with youth, familiarity with the SEC, some outside influence, and guys that can recruit.

    Arnett did a solid job and yes it looks like some things will change offensively. So what. Everyone changes. We need to run the ball more and we need a coordinated effort to do that. Physical defensive teams beat us up under Leach because we weren't a physical team. We need to be more physical and shift our offensive identity towards what nationally has been shown to work consistently.

    You and KB can go get a room together, because you both have no clue how good this staff can be.

    I would rather have Hollingshead than Bumphis. But Bumphis will do a good job I think. Drew is gonna be one of best

    Let me know when Bump is selected by the AFCA for the 35 under 35 leadership conference and becomes an offensive coordinator.

    Two of the biggest myths in football have been stated in this thread.

    The first myth is that you have to run the ball to win. Analytics has proven this false.

    The second myth is that the Air Raid isn?t physical.

    Name me a team that you would consider more physical than us that we beat this year.

    The version of the Air Raid that we ran wasn't as physical as is needed in the SEC against the upper tier teams.

    It's not a coincidence that the 4 games we lost were our 4 lowest scoring outputs of the season. We got pushed around on offense by teams that were more physical. We beat teams more talented than us, but not more physical than us.

    I’ll let you know when this staff does WAY better than you have predicted.

    Don’t go running away now. You’ve blown up 2 different message boards with your bad takes. Be man enough to admit when you’re wrong after that day comes.

    I know what isn't a myth, the fact that Leach's offense couldn't do jack shit against any defense with a pulse the past 3 years.
    "We will have no problem in handling Kentucky."-Turfdawg67. MSU suffered a 27-17 defeat in 2022 with 225 yards in total offense.

    It's not a coincidence that the 4 games we lost were our 4 lowest scoring outputs of the season. We got pushed around on offense by teams that were more physical. We beat teams more talented than us, but not more physical than us.
    It's also probably not a coincidence that our offense struggled against the top 3 defenses in PPG and total defense in Georgia, Alabama, and Kentucky. Then we lost to LSU who was top 5 in PPG and 6 in total defense. Illinois was number one in the Big 10 in PPG and #2 in total defense and actually allowed fewer PPG than Georgia. We've never had an offense that has scored consistently against the top defenses in the SEC. The goal there should be to be able to score enough to give ourselves a chance to win a low scoring game. See the RelaiOutback Bowl.

    The rest of the games we played we did pretty well. Except for the Egg Bowl where we turned it over a ton. And even then we should have had 30 points had it not been for a poor call on a play where Dillion Johnson scored and they incorrectly marked us down at the one. 30+ points on every else is very solid. People mock this team for blowing out our OOC teams but that rarely has happened at MSU if we're being honest. If we can make a few additions and tweaks and get to where we score 20+ points on really good defenses which we were pretty close to doing last year- then we could have a really good year this year.

    But again at the end of the day it's about recruiting rather than the scheme we run.

    Two of the guys Arnett fired immediately became OC's. Miller will without a doubt land on his feet somewhere as well. I may be wrong but I kind of doubt that if we fired Bumphis he would become an OC. Hughes is the same difference as Washington. Barbay is an unknown and likely a downgrade from Leach. Friend will probably be OK but we'll be fortunate if he is as good as Miller. Schmidt I think was brought in to help Arnett more than anything and give him someone he trusts. Turner can recruit better than Phelps but Phelps wasn't bad. Literally know nothing about Dewhurst. I imagine Hopson will help him out.

    What analytics? You posting a random blog from some random nerd who crunched numbers isn’t analytics.
