Either he had simply lost it, or he sat too far from the field, but he screwed up left and right.

Something I have noticed this year: Jesse Palmer has called a few games for OM and he always goes on and on about how well the Freezer pleaser recruits. Isn't it a tad irresponsible to talk about how well someone recruits when they are currently under NCAA investigation?? You HAVE to at least mention that if you are going to talk about recruiting success. Not dwell on it, but at least mention it.

Could the SEC be telling the announcers to keep it off the air? Haven't paid much attention to how much coverage it's gotten on SEC network.

Jesse palmer also said that we just couldn't recruit on the level of bama, lsu, and ole miss.

Which one doesn't fit there? He forgot to mention that it really helps recruiting when you give everyone a big bag of money, or a new car from cannon motors.

He said it a split second before Jiles made the pick 6.

If you're looking for any negative news about an SEC school, the last place you will find it is the SEC Network. It serves its purpose and gets a lot of games on the air that otherwise wouldn't be. But it is absolutely being used for propaganda for the SEC. And that's not a bad thing. You just have to recognize it for what it is.

It's possible, but I just don't see a reason to keep it a secret. I'm not saying he has to come out and comment that OM is dirty because they are getting investigated. After all, these are just allegations right now. But it's perfectly acceptable to say, "and Brent, if we're taking about OM recruiting, we would be remiss not to mention they are currently under NCAA investigation and I know they are eager to get that behind them......"

Just something simple and professional like that. But no. Jesse puts them in the same sentence with Bama and LSU as far as recruiting goes. It just bothers me. And I've heard him say it in more than one game.

Jessie was the one who said Fred Brown. Brent said Fred Ross. It was actually Donald Grey.

I believe Jesse right after the comments about how we could not recruit on the level with Alabama, LSU and the bears he mentioned the talent within the state of Mississippi (Bret Farve, Jerry Rice, and Walter Payton) none of those went to Alabama, LSU or the bears. I guess that any 4 or 5 star player we happen to land would be news to Jesse. How much prep do these announcers do before calling at Saturday game? At the time they were recruited they were not 4 or 5 star players either.

I was a little annoyed with the constant updates from Brent on the other games. It felt like he had a big screen with the Iron Bowl on and was just glancing at the game in front of him.
One time Ole Miss made a stop on 3rd down and got up to celebrate like the kids do these days and he went crazy saying, "The ball comes out and Ole Miss says they have it!" Jesse had to quickly correct him and let him know it was just a 3rd down stop.

He is just regurgitating what is being drilled into their heads by the UM reps that cling onto them while they are in town for a broadcast. He is going on about it because some UM dolt won't shut up about how they are now on Alabama's level now and how fairies and unicorns roam campus.

I guess MSU needs to have someone cling onto announcers while in town and verbally fellate every single thing about MSU. But come to think of it.. we are not as needy as UM to want someone to have to mention them.

It was more than a little annoying and he definitely had the game on right next to him. If I wanted to watch the Iron Bowl I would and if I did and was watching the Egg Bowl I certainly wouldn't want the announcer spoiling the outcome for me. When are old people gonna figure out what a 17ing DVR is already.

Jesse Palmer is an idiot

He states that we cannot recruit on the level with the black bears without mentioning the NCAA issues that resulted from their recruiting prowess & the he used as examples on the talent pool in Mississippi 3 NFL legends (Favre, Payton, & Rice) that were not highly rated recruits.

This is a glaring issue with certain announcers like Jesse. Seems they just go party and let the um SID hand them propaganda "fact" sheets with their cocktails.
