I once heard that the wrappers from Dontae Walker's Hardee's visits were used to keep the Lee Hall furnace burning for the last 15 years.

Also a little bird told me that Maroon wasn't all that matters..

If Jackie would have offered McNair as a QB, we would have gotten Keyshawn to go along with Moulds.

LT hired Croom strictly as a PC hire so the NCAA wouldn't hammer us

Oh wait, that one is true...

Story Keyshawn has told was that everyone knew he wouldn't qualify, but Jackie kept bugging him to sign anyway so he did.

Ben Hansbrough left because Dietric Slater was banging his mom and...Andre Applewhite was asked to leave the team because he was enjoying Rick Ray's wife's cookies a little too much....that's off the top of my head.

Gene drove to the BP on 45 (used to be old Jack Larmar's) and used the pay phone to call Chris Petersen.

And I can say with expertise that Caledonia did NOT get cable TV out past Wolf Road (poor Dale Road folks) until 1998.

Major Applewhite

Was going to sign with State out of high school in Baton Rouge but went to Texas at the last minute.

Don't guess that's a conspiracy but something about us not signing him had to do with Templeton and Sherrill hating each other and JWS said that the fact we didn't sign him was LT's fault.

Gene would not have had enough quarters to make that call. Anyway the Base would have intercepted the call and gone after him.

We would've been National Champs in 2001 except for 9-11.

I remember the first game post 9/11 against SC, and no one was really interested in football. No doubt, as trivial as football was in light of 9/11, it was the beginning of the end of MSU football for a long time.

LT offered the job to Croom and he turned it down. Then he offered it to Jimbo Fisher and he accepted. While on the flight to Starkville, Fisher got a call from LT rescinding the offer because Croom reconsidered and decided to take it.

God that's strange. 9/11 still seems like yesterday but when you think of all that has happened since then it's pretty mind blowing.

Darrell Royal often said that the biggest mistake of his coaching career was leaving Mississippi State for Texas.

I thought this thread was about conspiracy theories. That one was true.

Jackie Sherrill at his sneaky, sketchy finest.

I'm going to pick on Gene some more. In the 2004 SEC Tournament, against Vandy..

Lawrence Roberts "tweaked" his ankle when he fell out of bounds and tried to avoid tripping over that clown. Roberts was not the same the rest of the night. We lost to Vanderbilt in OT, went home early, got a two seed, and lost to Xavier in the 2nd round. If it had not been for the Hack From Caledonia, Roberts would have been fine. We would have beaten Vanderbilt, and gone on to beat Kentucky to win the tournament, and get a #1 seed with a much easier path to the Final 4.
