    That or they don't realize recruiting is sales. MSU people believe recruiting is about logic or some other BS.

    Recruits believe what you tell them too.
    Plus 10000+....this is exactly it! I?m actually shocked that our staff is doing such an average job at it. The low key ?Top Dawg? weekend was a joke...you have to paint a picture for this kids where you are the wizard that is going to make their bag...ugh...dreams come true! Of course performance on the field is essential but it takes both to be Championship material.

    This staff is awesome but they can only take a fanbase so far when they don't promote or believe in the place.

    The mindset of our fan base sucks and things won't change until that does

    You guys expect the staff to do everything while OM fans are selling Oxford, the girls, etc like it's the greatest thing on Earth.
    State is not the flashy school and we are never going to be. Its not who we are. But you cant argue with the fact that since we hired Sherril we have beat them more than they have beat us. At worst we made up the ground from when the entire athletic dept. thought we couldnt compete so we said the hell with it.

    I will agree with you OM people are more obnoxious though

    Where in the hell do fans have to sell themselves to recruits to make them believe that we believe in the program. And yes, I do expect the staff to do everything recruiting-wise because it would be a violation of any of us interjected ourselves in the recruiting process. What the hell else to do you expect us to do beside show up on game day and show our support. That's what recruits should only see from our fans. Hell I guess you expect us fans to show up on recruiting weekends and meet up with players at the bars and blow smoke up their ass about how great MSU is. I have plenty of passion for this school but I have family to take care way before I go act like a douche OM fan and go and try to meet recruits and jerk them off to get them to come to my school. We have a coaching staff that gets paid damn good to recruit, not me. Your post was about the dumbest damn thing I've read in a while.

    Clemson has become flashy, Auburn flashy, A&M flashy. They are made up of the exact same people as us.

    Why do you put limits on what we can be?

    Let me guess....."because you are being realistic"

    Once again shotgun, dumb as hell. Our staff better be selling the crap out MSU and the vision they have for it. Only thing we can do legally is fill the stadium and show support. Now supporting illegally is another matter.

    You obviously didn't state it very well. You pretty much said the mindset of our fan base sucked compared to OM and recruiting won't change until it does. Well I'm saying our mindset shouldn't affect recruiting one bit unless nobody shows on game day. That's the only place I can think of where recruits should see how much fans care(legally of course).

    It’s not the staff. It’s the admin.

    No. Im not saying we cant be any of them. Im saying we will never be OM. OM sells a different product than we do.

    Idk how much time you have spent in Oxford but all it takes is one night and you will see the difference in it and Starkville. Not saying they are better. That just appeals to some kids just like we appeal to some kids

    Auburn and Clemson both arent going to appeal to some kids. They are a lot like us. A&M is trying to be something they arent. You've seen how that is going

    The top 3 offensive players in the state of Mississippi are currently committed to Ole Miss.

    If we concede the WRs because of Ole Miss' offense, then we should get Ealy right?

    Why is Ealy committed to an offense that can't run the ball?

    The fact of the matter is that Moorhead just took some chin kicks and got a big fat welcome to the SEC.

    It happens to every new SEC coach. We'll see if he can get up and fix this.

    At current status, our recruiting class is unacceptable considering the in-state talent available. Long time till signing day though and we've got a bunch of wins ahead of us.

    Our class isn't unacceptable. That's ridiculous. If you want to say the offensive portion of the class, then fine. But we've got a load of defensive talent coming in.
    Ealy feels like a flip. I have no idea what he's going to do, but it feels like he's moving in our direction.

    There is at least a 75% chance Ealy never plays college sports, not someone you want to rely on fill our hole at RB. Of course he's worth the risk but still...we have a huge problem at RB and LB and WR has been a huge disappointment. We have no momentum and that worries me with other teams salivating over our DL commits. Our staff needs to get after it.
