No kidding. Dykes tweeted that 2 years ago- Ray Charles could see where the program was then.
Ray signed 4 players his 1st month as coach- the problem Ray had, which others havent yet- is that two of them blew their knees out. Then we had 2 other returnees smoke too much dope, then 2 more devastating injuries during the season.
It's Year 3 and everybody expects Ray and the team to be better. Rebuilding is over.

The more I read, the more I like what I hear.
Mississippi State remains an option because it’s the home school.
“They’re close to home and they’re doing a really good job of developing their players,” Newman said.
Kentucky has long been linked to Newman.
Asked what their pitch has been, he said, “Same old recruitment stuff.”
Asked about the number of NBA players Kentucky has produced, Newman said, “I don’t really look into that.”
N.C. State, UConn and Kansas are all in the mix as well.
That's the most dismissive I've heard him be about UK so far.
Malik thinks Ray can develop players? Weird.

He wants to do include a 3rd guy in his package deal too?

I've never wanted someone at MSU to succeed as much as Coach Ray. The criticism of someone taking over such a tough situation from people on this board has been very difficult to listen to because they want us to be relevant again so bad but don't understand how bad it was when he took over and how hard it is to overcome it.
Year three is like year one for most new hires but our hoops fans think we should be able to recover so much sooner than is realistic. This year is actually when his tenure BEGINS for me. Not his make or break year.

I agree. Rick walked into a situation that most coaches would not have walked into. There is a reason Bryce Drew and Murray State's coach whose name escapes me right now ran from the job. This was as toxic of a situation as you could go into as a basketball coach.
What's sad is that certain people who call themselves MSU boosters are working against Rick Ray on everything because he wasn't their choice.

It's the roller coaster of hope that this program keeps us on that makes it hell being a State fan. - CadaverDawg, 10/15/22

what exactly has been done by these boosters "against Ray"? Just curious. Everyone speaks like there are State fans sabotaging him, but I've never seen anything specifically be mentioned other than some people griping on message boards.

Not providing financial backing. It's not necessarily what they are doing "against" him. It's what they are not doing "for" him.

Only thing sabotaging Ray right now is his lack of recruiting, lack of development of players and lack of maintaing a full roster. Sun Belt teams recruit better than us right now.

MSU has more money than Sun Belt teams even if we had zero help from boosters. Why are they out recruiting us?
