So 2 WRs 40 years apart? Thanks for proving my point. Why don't you also say Mississippi produced Brett Fahv-ray? It's only been about 10 years since he retired and there hasn't been a good starting QB in the NFL from here since. And don't tell me Minshew, he's not going to be a starter for long. But again, it's only a decade or so between NFL QBs for the state, even if Minshew makes it.

There's a reason most of the NFL players in MS are defenders or linemen and RBs. High school offenses are so far behind that WRs and QBs don't develop worth a damn outside of the very exceptional case.
