    Too bad I don't have a radio show I guess.

    Doesn't he read this board? I believe His show has an account set up here. I would like to hear him try to justify him saying we'll win 7 games.

    Here's what the "media" doesn't understand.

    We have a new coach with an offense very few if any in this league has faced. Advantage is.

    We might have a DC that may actually be a better fit because I suspect Shoop is more multiple than Grantham. What I'm getting at is no more JT Gray on AJ Brown. I think we will see 4-2-5, 4-3, and 3-4 looks this year possibly. And this is speculation so grain of salt here.

    We will be better on special teams.

    We will be more aggressive in our pay calling.

    We have a veteran team that while they won the Gator Bowl and spirits are high they are at the same time hungry to right some wrongs last year. They're going to work their ass off and come after people.

    We are going to use personnel better. No more Holloway up the middle and starting Zach Jackson and Kivon Coman because they are seniors.

    Here's my outlook on the upcoming year:

    I believe Fitz at Quarterback will excel under Moorhead in a way he never could under Dan. I know everybody praises Dan for being a quarterback guru, and rightfully so, but I believe Moorhead's aggressive play calling will play right into Fitz's strength. We are going to see vertical play calling that is aggressive no matter the opponent.

    At Running Back, Hill and Williams are going to be a dynamic duo that will absolutely rip through some defenses this year. They have an experienced offensive line that is very good to block up front from them, not to mention they are practicing every day against a top 3 SEC defensive line.

    At Wide Receiver, our "cause to pause," I don't know a whole lot besides we bring in some key pieces here. I know we will be improved here from last year.

    On the Defensive line, WE ARE LOADED. When Kobe Jones is running with the 2's you know it is explosive. This D-Line will absolutely destroy some offensive lines.

    At linebacker, Cornerbacks, and safetys, we will be pretty good also.

    We have a very good kicker in Jace Christtman.

    I am excited to see what this defense will become, and to see how Shoop runs things.
    The offense will be the creative, aggressive version of Dan's.

    This team is absolutely going to win more than 7 games MARK IT DOWN!

    Bartoo compared the best MSU roster of our life times to Arkansas? roster. Yes. He actually said that.

    He also said that MSU?s 8+ win projection in the FPI was too high because MSU lost Mullen. Yet, is A&M?s less because they lost Sumlin? Arkansas because they lost Bert? How about others?

    Here is what?s funny, Bo Bounds has MSU winning 7 games, LSU winning 6/7 games, OM winning 6 games, and Arkansas winning about 5 or 6 games. In Bo?s opinion, I guess the SEC West isn?t playing a full schedule this year since nobody is winning more than 6 or 7 games.

    Again, this is the best roster in 20+ years and Bo Bounds is saying we?ll 7 games. That is absolutely ludicrous and lazy.

    This is one thing that sucks about Mississippi. While media from Louisiana, Alabama, Tennessee, South Carolina, etc are finding reasons why their teams will win big, Mississippi media are digging for reasons why we will lose. And the we wonder why we get picked last in the SEC West every year. If in-state media won?t stand up and be honest about the team, why would anyone else?

    The inferiority complex, pump the brakes people from Mississippi are too much for me. They literally hold the state back in numerous ways.
    Bartool's matrix is based solely on recruiting rankings. People still think recruiting rankings are the be all, end all to winning games. We just have to avoid an early season slip up.

    With the country club wr coach basking in the sun in FL, and we have a real wr coach in Coach Getsy who can teach them the fundamentals and how to be successful, Deddrick Thomas and Reggie Todd's development may surprise some people this year.

    He has the talent, but is there any concern with possible growing pains of learning a new offensive or just having a new coach?

    There are lots of examples of coaches having good first years so I know it's not unavoidable. I guess I'm just nervous about a first season. Ready to actually see what happens

    Penn State didn't have a problem learning his offense. It's actually a simple offense, per CJM. He said something to the effect of it's a lot better to practice a few things and master them instead of practicing a bunch of things and not doing any of them well. He is big on a lot of repetition.

    I think you are right on with this post.

    As far as Bo picking us to win around half our games, he decides what to say about us based on how he thinks his ole piss listeners will react. If you listen, he just can not give State a bit of credit without equating it to something great about ole piss. I just laugh hearing what he comes up with sometimes. He can get away with picking anything, as it is just prognostication. But if he were to pick us to win 9 or 10, he knows it would upset his ole piss listeners so he picks us low to keep them listening.
    You're blind if you can't see improvement.....Freshmens......Strain.....Kick rocks and pound sand......Drag my Yankee ass outta here!......
