Gentleman the wheels are in motion

[bobcat91]

Okay, so he lost the job. How does that make him a bitch? The dude went head to head with Lamar Jackson and won a bowl game. He entered the transfer portal and Joe talked him into staying. Again, how does that make him a bitch? Bet you wouldn't say that shit to his face tough guy

He cant complete 50%. That's not going to win a starting job. Not in P5.

[I seen it dawg]

Which one isnt true?

Give me some examples to prove your post of bullshit

[KOdawg1]

Still didn't answer my question tough guy. Completing below 50% doesn't make someone a bitch. Would you say it to his face if y'all were in the same room?

I wouldn't think so. Which in turn, makes you the one who is a bitch

Key being a bitch for one.

I am old school and in the past I would have considered Key a quitter and probably called him a bitch, plus I was in the Marine Corp and I don't believe in quitting but in today world of transfers I don't view if as quitting, I view it as making your situation better and Key is not a bitch. He is doing what everyone else is doing. It is the norm at this time. We better get use to it. Look at LSU QB, he quit OSU and now he's probably going to win the big trophy as a QB. Also he has taking some serious hits the past two seasons and keeps getting up.

Wait, you started a thread calling out people in the know to name a coach now...that’s burning bridges with sources and could also derail a hire, like Peterson.

I remember when we were after Petersen-Byrne flying to Denver to interview him and our tracking the flight. People say that our talking about the hire derailed the hire. I like to hear an explanation as to how the hire was derailed.

[Technetium]

I make a proposal - Those "in the know" put out an post with the new coach and 3 other names. We can all make our guesses at which one it is. IF the name is on the list, you get credit. If not, you get revealed.

This should not do any harm in negotiations because it's just a name on a list. How 'bout it?

Alternative idea: Pick a mod/owner who doesn't claim to have a source in this. All of the people with sources PM the mod with their info (e.g., 1) Moorhead is definitely gone and to where if known, 2) Name of new coach). Presumably, the mod would be trustworthy and thus not reveal the info until after everything is official, and can then post the results/screenshots to prove who had sources and who was blowing smoke.

If we do this in an organized way, it could become an effective means of tracking both the accuracy of the information and the date which the information was claimed to be known - similar to the way 247 crystal ball idea.

Peterson's name leaking didn't cause it to fall apart. Peterson accepted, slept on it, and changed his mind the next morning. His kid's health played a big part in not moving his family across the country

Yep, if burrow wasn't a "bitch", he would be starting a non-football career next season instead of being a 1st round pick

Hmmmm- wonder what that makes Stevens?

[chef dixon]

He got ****ed over as this season has clearly shown. Hard to blame him

Yep. The Guru ruined his career and this season that was on full display

[bobcat91]

Our starting QB.

Here's the thing with me on this that I've noticed about our fans for years. Someone wants to leave MSU they quitters or doesn't choose MSU in recruiting and we didn't want them anyway.

We get someone via transfer like Tommy ... there's a real good reason he wanted out of PSU and their staff ain't handling him the right way. Plus, he the next Joe Montana and better than Dak.

Can't have it both ways.

Talking about a cancer to a team IMO .. Guidry. We coddled him during recruiting, he's been coddled ever since, he's still being coddled and ... look what we've gotten out of it. If there is a locker room issue(s) I'm betting him starting every week is one of them.

Good post Jack. This is a business now at the D1 level of CFB. The schools, coaches and admins look out for their best interests and how many dollars these players generate for them, so why shouldn't the players be allowed to look out for their best interests as well. It's a business decision, just like when an investor backs out of business that's feeling,it's all about business.

Was given a shot in fall camp to win the job.He didnt come close. Ever wonder why no completion stats were put out? Some of yall will always buy the tin foil hat theories. He got beat fair an square.

Let's see where he transfers to. You will get a good idea of his ability at that point.

He wasn't given a shot this fall. Stephens was given the job before he stepped on campus. His father outright told Moorehead he wasn't coming unless he was guaranteed to start.

We guaranteed Bryant the job as well when courting him

KT was recruited for Mullen's offense. Steven's and Schradee were recruited for Moorheads. Mullen was a run first offense. Moorheads isnt. His is predicated on fast reads and accurate throws. That isnt KT.

By next week, we may have an entirely new offense based on having a new coach. That said, unless Schrader leaves, he starts next year no matter who else is on the roster.

[ShotgunDawg]

Do you think he still trasnfers if a guy like Napier is hired?

[Randolph Dupree]

It's done. Hire has been made. I do not know the name, but it's a done deal. Also, Cohen was told this was it, screw
it up and you will also be gone. Again, I don't have the name but given the situation I am optimistic.

[bulldawg28]

Yep. He's really lighting it up at Mizzou ***

[bobcat91]

This after Moorhead evaluated him for 2 Spring practices, a fall camp and a full season. Do you honestly think he got screwed over or did he just not fit this style of offense?
