which includes four #1 rated recruits at their positions, then in 2018 we lose to an undefeated Southern Miss in Hattiesburg by two TD's.

Amazing what's going on in Oxford.

I went on

nafoom for the first time in a while, to see what kind of comedy was available. Well ********** has a freaking hilariously awesome post on their '13 class and it not really being not that great. I **** you not. That's all those 17ers talked about for 2 years, now they lose to Memphis and it's a subpar class. Really good stuff.

If we thought the season was concluded with signing day we'd get the same

results our friends up north have gotten. It's become somewhat apparent to me the coaches are as distracted as the fans are when it comes to projecting signing day press clippings into the next season.

Hilarious. Can you imagine this board after a loss like that with all that supposed "talent"? It would break the Internet.

Also...stars matter.

I remember Matt Wyatt making a good point once about bringing in "elite" out-of-state talent. He said these hired guns would never play with the heart and passion as a homegrown kid. He was right.

What is hilarious is that they will probably finish 7-5 this year, yet they will STILL have an awesome signing class. A class rated easily in the Top 10 in the country on par with Bama & LSU and above everyone else in the SEC.

In the end ..

What is hilarious is that they will probably finish 7-5 this year, yet they will STILL have an awesome signing class. A class rated easily in the Top 10 in the country on par with Bama & LSU and above everyone else in the SEC.
1.) Freeze will screw up the incoming class .. just like he did the 'Top 5' '13 Class of Pre Madonnas.2.) Some of those 'comitted' guys are gonna start getting a case of 'happy feet' due to: A.) The way Freeze coaches B.) NCAA hasn't closed the case on OM Make some popcorn

That scenario is almost unthinkably hypothetical, but if it were to happen to us I suspect there would be a bit of melting on our side too. But it's fun watching them do it.

I had an appointment today with my Black Bear ophthalmologist and we usually have a little OM/MSU banter. I just didn't have the heart to bring it up today, and he didn't mention it either. I'm just thankful I don't have cataract surgery scheduled any time soon.

A bunch of them made business decisions that led them to Ole Miss. Now with 5 games to play and NFL contracts looming it looks like they're making business decisions again.

I don't think ole miss realized how good/important Tony Connor was to their defense. Yes Kimdeche is really freakin good but Connor is what makes their D tick. bottom line is this....as long as he is out, they will struggle and I freakin love it!

What makes that funny is the fact Matt is from Alabama. But yeah, he's right. Mississippi has a bunch of mercenaries playing for them. When the going gets tough, they won't fight like the homegrown player will. (Matt, if you read this, I'm kidding. You're one of my favorite Bulldogs and I appreciate everything you've done for MSU. I'll never forget that Saturday at Auburn with my AU bro-in-law and nephew when you led us to that amazing comeback win.)

I agree, but they were sputtering with him. I think the reality is their secondary and LBs have taken a nose dive this year.

So Shepard and Bridges over Redmond and Calhoun? Thoughts?
