    Pikes still have him in their rush video?

    Bumphis

    I don't know anything about coaching (certainly no more than any other armchair coach / QB), but he has been at both Buffalo and Utah, both of which seemingly are very well run programs. Smart well run programs generally lead to smart well running employees / coaches.

    We are 8-4 but.....

    Had we won the KY game I would feel totally different about this season. Although the loss to LSU doesn't look bad now we should have won that game too. I should be happy with 8-4 but, for me, those two games (esp the KY game) make this a very frustrating season. Looking back on the season...

    Two games we would have lost in the past..

    Thats two games we would have lost in the past, its early but we look and it feels different. It will be exciting to have basketball back!

    Benjamin Watson wasn’t a fan of Peter Burns comment Saturday

    I've got a very good friend who is this way, he just doesn't like to be joked with. He is a great guy who would give you the shirt off his back, but just doesn't like to be joked with, something like this would not go over well with him. Certainly don't know Watson but his facial expression...

    Comedy over coaching

    That’s who he is… the half-time stunt wasn’t funny, that was being an ******* to someone trying to do a job.

    MSU Men's Basketball Season Prediction...

    It is my hope that we see progress and growth. Not expecting a lot out of this season, but looking for good building blocks. Jans seems to be a good fit, but I have been a State fan long enough to have seen a lot of "good fits", so I will wait and see.

    Deion Sanders as our next coach

    Valid point about the SWAC, however the level of talent he is bringing in at a SWAC school with nothing to offer facility and budget wise is really unbelievable. Makes you wonder what he could do with good facilities and a bigger budget?

    Ross Dellenger on Mark Keenum

    We are so fortunate to have him, and what a great, much needed, complement about our state.

    Deion Sanders as our next coach

    My point is, his highlights are easy to find (Google / youtube), 17-18 year old kids aren't likely watching football the same way you and I do. You don't have to agree, but I believe he still has a lot of star power.

    Deion Sanders as our next coach

    It's one in the same, bigger personal brand = more NIL / advertising money. Many of these kids, especially the social media savvy ones are using their platform as leverage.

    Deion Sanders as our next coach

    10-15 years ago I would have agreed, but today his highlights are everywhere and very easy to find. There are very few athletes who once they retire have lasting star power, but he is one of them. Also the reach of Barstool adds even more star power.

    Deion Sanders as our next coach

    I agree, (although it will likely never happen) we have to have a major shift. There is no one who knows branding better than Deion, and recruits are all about brand, weather its personal brand or team brand. Heck he has made JSU cool, I bet their merchandise sales are insane right now.

    Deion Sanders as our next coach

    I've had this discussion with several people over the past month. My take is this, we are a 5-7 win team, with outliers both ways (actually worse lifetime), which puts us in the bottom half of the SEC. To change that there has to be a major shift / a disruptor, and I think it would be worth...

    🔒 Freshman OL Sam Westmoreland has passed away.

    You really don't know what someone else is going through. Just really sad to think about how much pain he must have been in, and now the pain his family is in. Prayers for comfort and peace.
