    Ya'll forget Ole Miss lost their best player. Ole Miss lost 14 other starters. Ole Miss had numerous guys transfer. Their backs are against the wall. All these transfers might pan out or they might wash out. They are transfers and they are transfers for a reason. Do we know for sure Leach skipped? What was the reason. You all are assuming the worse. "Just State Fans doing what they do best"

    I think fans get too caught up in number of wins. That's fine at Bama I guess. But one of my favorite years was Mullen's 1st year. We only went 5-7. But you could tell the brand of football and style of offense was going to work at MSU. We played hard every game. Nearly beat LSU. Beat Ole Miss by double digits. And didn't embarrass ourselves in any game. You could tell with a couple of good recruiting classes, we could have a special year. And of course we ended up having 3 or 4 special years including Mullen's 2nd season.

    This has become the norm for this board. Folks wanna give Lane a blowjob while flipping the bird at Leach.

    We should be favored against AU and Arkansas and I bet we will be under a 6 point dog against LSU, and my guess a pick em against Ole Miss. This is also making A&M a free shot for Leach at home. I'm not expecting that one, which is pretty generous.

    8 regular season wins with everything we have returning is a good season. I think we should expect a good season in year 3 after dealing with some pretty shitty games the last two years.
    Let's see how we look without the best OT in school history and our best offensive weapon (Polk) before saying we should be favored in any SEC game. We saw what we looked like against a statistically bad TxTech defense without Cross and it wasn't pretty. I have a feeling our offense is going to struggle mightily this year. We still don't have any type of playmakers that DCoordinators have to gameplan for.

    We have a few spots where we haven't even used our available scholarships yet. We're recruiting CUSA guys and have three off one damn team. We aren't even really trying hard. We'll fill them with somebody that loses their job in the spring and lesser players.

    No one forgets that. Literally no one. But what we do see is that Lane and Ole Miss are working their asses off in recruiting the portal to do everything they can to set themselves up for success. Can you say the same about Leach and our staff?

    How many scholarships do we have after this singing class? We are not in the same boat as the Bears. They lost way more than us. Leach knows our roster. So what's the big deal. You too worried about those **** heads up North. I suspect they will have locker room problems next season and add in they have the least respected and most childish coach in the country. He needs to grow his ass up. Tag this post and watch. They will have problems. Adding that we singed 21 and have 7 transfers. That's 28. Considering we had 10 or so seniors, a few transfer out and a few go pro just how many more can we get?

    I believe we have around 5-6 unused scholarships for new players.

    Cooter you were pretty optimistic in the signing period. What has changed for you? What are you seeing/hearing?

    You've been against Leach from the jump, so I know you can't be objective about it, but we got several transfers at positions of need including WR, OT, S, CB and Kicker.

    Other than that, yeah I guess they didn't do anything in the portal.

    We have 5 scholarships left. We haven’t been very aggressive in the portal since signing day.

    Ideally who would you have liked to see us recruit for this team with 5 scholarships left? I haven't seen many more DBs / OL worth pursuing. WR is always a need. Not sure though what could have been done better except delaying when we got our transfer commits?

    I'm pro MSU. We aren't going anywhere with Leach in charge.

    Who is in there at positions of need that we could get? I genuinely don't know, but haven't seen any names pop up. Wasn't the plan to hit it again after spring once we see some things with our new guys and another wave of players hit the portal?

    If we're missing out on guys we should be on right now, fair enough, but to act like we haven't been active in the portal this year and last is wrong. I've seen that expressed multiple times recently and I don't know where it's coming from. Hell, 40% of our pro-day participants were Leach portal grabs.

    There are legitimate things to criticize Leach about, like not attending pro day, I just don't think his use of the portal is one of them.

    It seems that we sloughed off sometime after getting the CB from Bama in the boat. We got out worked on the OT from W Kentucky that ended up at Ole Miss.

    This was always the deal with Leach. If he can't beat OM and win 7 or 8 games then it's over.

    That assumes we don't have anyone else transfer out before the first game - i think every SEC program should expect to lose 2-4 guys in August.

    Does having 5 schollies left dictate portal work or lack thereof?
