    GameDay depth chart

    While not on the 2-Deep, Khaumari Rogers (Miami transfer from MS) and Radar Jones (LSU transfer from MS) have elite talent. If we can keep them out of the portal, I'm sure they are going to get reps at CB this year. They have the talent to be the next Emerson/Forbes combo for '24 and '25...

    What is your assessment of Will Rogers and his legacy?....

    For the most part, I agree with you. His strength is his character, leadership, and accuracy. However, his stats are a bit inflated due to running the Air Raid. I watched him struggle with pressure again and again. He doesn't step up in the pocket well and doesn't have the foot speed to roll...

    Home solar panels

    I checked into solar panels for my home, and to generate the same power that I use monthly with some battery backup, they quoted me almost $60K. The break even point based upon my monthly electric bill was 15-20 years, and the panels are only rated for 10-15 years. Thus, I deemed it...

    What is the best place to go eat BBQ?

    The Salt Lick outside of Austin has a nice Texas brisket and charred ribs that are hard to beat. I don't mean the crappy Salt Lick franchises in the city; I mean the original in hills. So many good styles of BBQ out there that have distinctly different flavors. Midwood Smokehouse in...

    How many of you follow recruiting?

    I typically pay attention to most recruiting for football, basketball, and baseball. I'll even cheer on the occasional softball commit. While there is drama, it gives me something sports related to do between sport seasons and when our favorite team is not doing well and I need a distraction...

    Mitch Moreland Retires

    Great article on Moreland's career with a link to his 3-Run Bomb in Game 4 of the World Series. A fantastic career to a former Bulldog great! https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2023/03/mitch-moreland-retires.html

    Tell me how this is a legal formation?

    The rule is that the guards and tackles must break the plane of the center's hip; however, it is rarely called even in high school. In addition, officials are taught not to call it later in the game if you haven't corrected it early on. Officials are taught to warn the team early in the game...

    Just lost Joe Crocker

    Crocker is a good OL prospect. Great size (which you know that "you can't teach...") and good athleticism. He may not project to a college OT, but he had the tools to develop. Almost all OL are projects out of high school, and OL is one of the hardest positions to assess until they face...

    Caleb Bryant

    Caleb Bryant is a legit 6'3" and 250-lb player with good push and power at the HS level. He will need to get stronger under the weight program, but Vicksburg typically has a very good weightlifting program. In HS, he displayed several outbursts of frustration that are a bit concerning. He...

    If I were making the coaching decision - this is what I would do...

    I essentially concur with this approach. I would prefer to give Arnett his chance. Since it would be his first HC job, I think 3-3.5M is a good number with the caveat that we get an Air Raid style OC. There are several in Leach's tree such as Seth Littrell from North Texas who was fired as HC...

    Anybody have kids that live or have lived in The Vista?

    My experience in renting (whether the fancier apartment complexes or even houses) in Starkville is that most of the day-to-day is run by students, and that these students have not learned what professional service looks like. They are used to dealing with other students so that don't know how...

    6 games in - who is your most improved player?...

    Since this is a Junior/Senior heavy group, we can see maturity in alot of places. Dillon Johnson has been a stud, so I'd say his growth is not as surprising as the coaching staff providing consistent rushing opportunities. I definitely see improvement in the intangibles in Will Rogers, still a...

    Yall act like MSU bed shittin' started last night

    One thing to add Maybe Arnette is as stubborn as any coach we have had. Everyone knew that The LSU was going to drop back and tuck it on 3rd and long and we never adjusted by rushing with discipline to keep containment. Repeatedly rushed well past the QB and opened up running lanes. I get...
