    Arkansas is out recruiting MSU in our own state!

    That's friggin embarrassing. How does ARKANSAS get 2 top 10 players? Ok, one is listed as 12 currently but he is a 4 star and will be top 10.


    The point is that Bama and others will raid that top 10 too. For me, that's not acceptable when you sell us on locking down this state and the reason for those hires.

    Somebody has to be at the bottom pushing up the rest of the league in Academics and Athletics I guess that will be us.

    It's called NIL. The days of us getting the best in state recruits are over.

    No it is called all those recruiters that everyone thought we hired are not actually good recruiters. They are actually average at everything. Maybe Arnett will figure that out and get rid of them.

    I can not fathom who thought this was the way! If we are changing styles, fine. But put the money into the staff. We are allow Sam friggin PITTBOSS to beat us in our OWN state..

    Bama, Auburn, UGA.. OUR own back yard... 4 star RB from West Point to FLORIDA!!! Now PITTBOSS!!! That's down right embarrassing.

    Its still April, but Cohen and Leach not embracing NIL really put us way behind.

    Follow the money, who has it and who don't. We are playing catch up. BTW, you are insinuating they are just beating out us, that's incorrect thinking. These other teams are beating out both us and UM, who claim to have competitive NIL to the league. It's not a MSU issue

    People that don't like the coaching staff are going to blame the coaching staff. It doesn't matter if we had Leach, Mullen, JWS, etc...... NIL has changed everything. Arnette can compete with any other coach if he has the funds to do so. If not, we ain't getting those 4 star defensive linemen from Mississippi that we always have gotten.

    Been saying NIL was going to start rearing its ugly head- well, here it is. EVERY prospect now expects to get paid. EVERY one of them

    I can't believe a bunch of grown men are melting down over recruiting... IN APRIL 🤣 & over a 6' 190 linebacker 😂 he is a good athlete though but geez guys it's APRIL. We are going to finish between 20 & 30 in recruiting this year just like every other year. We to through this EVERY YEAR.

    Holla at me when they sign. This class will be between 25-35 just like it has been for the last 4 coaches.

    Yep. And half of those will enter the portal before they ever play.

    I have a feeling we are going to spend more time in the portal this year due to losing so many upperclassman. And I don't have one problem with it.

    Yep, every prospect, every current player already on the roster and every player in the transfer portal. And they expect to renegotiate every year. College sports is a total chaotic shitshow.
