    You are in control of our NIL budget of $52 million...

    I'm a baseball guy and love having the best facilities in the country, but winning a natty in baseball is not going to increase giving, increase enrollment, and get the school much national publicity, other than from other college baseball fans. Being relevant in football does all of those...

    Ely's Preseason Prognosticators - Ole Miss

    They are the biggest question mark in the SEC for me, as it's not clear how much of their success was Trinidad and Lacy's talent or Kiffin/Weiss Jr.'s scheme. Maybe it was a combination of the two. If it was their talent, then they could make another run.

    Ely's Preseason Prognosticators - Mississippi State

    I'm not ready to throw the towel in on Lebby until I see how he does with a competent DC. With a marginally better defense, we would have beat Texas, Tennessee and Florida last year, which would have put us at 8-1 and a top 15 team coming out of the Arkansas game. I don't disagree that his...

    Ely's Preseason Prognosticators - Mississippi State

    Two of our more successful coaches (at least at times), Jackie and Dan, had a knack for getting the team and fans believing in the team. I remember Dan's first year he did tons of roadshows across the state and the south. I went to several and walked away believing we were on our way. Even in...

    Ely's Preseason Prognosticators - Mississippi State

    That is certainly possible, but there are three things that make me hopeful. 1.) Defense under Arnett has to be better than what we saw the last two years. 2.) Even with an awful defense we carried Texas and Tenn into OT. 3.) Thompson's ability to run, should keep some drive going. The...

    Why im excited.

    I felt like that was also mainly O-line play. I think KT was sacked 5 or 6 times and no telling how many times he was knocked down. KT will add another dynamic that Shapen couldn't and keep defenses honest; however, you gotta have some protection, even with a QB as talented as KT.

    Why im excited.

    Our issue for some time has been more about O-Line play than QB play. I know it is an unpopular opinion, but Shapen could have been a decent QB behind a better O-Line. Van Buren would have been a super-star with better O-line play.

    Friday Update: RPI, SEC and Cheering Guide

    There is always the situation where we are not a national seed, the team we are paired against loses their regional, and the super ends up in Starkville anyway....

    Will the plastic field at Texas come in handy tonight?

    Yes, Texas and A&M ended up with a two game series

    Any word on if/when Ryan McPherson is back?

    I'm no doctor, but I was thinking a mild forearm strain may mean he could be back for the SEC tournament at least.

    This team is a bit different....

    Agree, but it's also good for teams to see that they do have the ability to battle back when they are down. Just wish it had been against better competition.

    Is this the 3rd or 4th game lost by catchers

    90% of the time I would agree with you, but last night we win this game by a few runs with better catcher play.

    Is this the 3rd or 4th game lost by catchers

    Granted I was on a flight last night and didn't see all of the game, but from what I followed on my phone, we gave up three runs to passed balls (would have lowered their runs to 7) but we also moved runners into scoring position multiple times on passed balls (potential lowered runs by 1 or 2...

    The positive side…

    We got the loss, but oddly I feel like we left the game with the momentum, especially with Valincius pitching today. If we can pull out the next two and only lose Thursday night by one run, we had a very successful series. Top five series win and some young pitchers that got valuable...
