    Mullen said 8 wins are average now at MSU?...

    My problem with last season was not the finish.... ...but the fact that we did not beat a single good team. The same holds true for 2011. If there is any lack of excitement in the program, it's that Mullen has not proven that he can pull an upset. Lately, when we have faced teams closed to...

    I wrote 1,000 words about the Sallach Tweet

    Meandering and pointless as far as I can tell. You appear to want to advance the idea that college coaches don't really hate each other and it's all an act, but offer little evidence of that, outside of some irrelevant tweet between a coach and fan in an unrelated situation. It's really a...

    Gents - we are coming up on 10 years...

    Sad that it has to end just short of the anniversary - what with the new board and all.

    So now Scott Kennedy, Scout's chief recruiting analyst, is reporting

    Good god you are all over the place. Ole Miss putting together this class is great for us goat! But I thought the sky was falling yesterday.

    LaQuon Treadwell Tweets

    They get a wake up call every year. Newton, Johnson, and we'll see what happens with Jones. You've got to play the game that everybody else is playing if you want to sell tickets and be competitive. You also have to figure out how to do it right without screwing up like we did with Mirando.

    My favorite part of all this recruiting/Rebels trolling on Jones

    Or maybe he knows all about OM that he wants to know (you know, since they are just right down the road and he could visit anytime he wanted), and the kid isn't interested. I love how whenever a kid doesn't want to look at Ole Miss, there's a giant conspiracy to "hide the kid" from Ole Miss...

    Miss me, SixPackers?

    I am seriously glad you are back. I worried that you had died. Also, I miss the way you would slam State in a passive aggressive way.

    When is Coach going to start posting Mullen's record against top 20 teams?

    Two huge differences between Mullen and Stansbury.... ...1) Mullen is not running a three ring circus that has our guys getting in public fights, key players transferring every year, and guys bad mouthing the program and coach publicly. While I am embarrassed to lose 5 of 6 and look so pitiful...

    Mullen to Wisconsin.**

    Ole Miss did beat a decent LSU on a flukey last second Les Miles clock management blunder.

    I'm going to tell you folks a few things about recruiting, the kluckers, and our

    You're just misinformed on that. That said, I took more satisfaction out of Mullen going 5-7 than I did this year with 8 wins. Maybe it's counterproductive, but I am glad we are stepping it up a notch. If we can go 6-6 with that schedule, we will have accomplished something.

    Re: our bowl scenario, is there any chance that this can happen?

    The Liberty Bowl does not get an sec team this year. Supposedly, they and Birmingham alternate pick priorities. There are not enough sec teams to fill the slots and so the last sec team will automatically play in Bham this year. The gator will choose between state and vandy and should pick...

    a table of our 20 loses

    My problem is with the losses that say "Home" and don't say "Alabama or LSU." The next step as a program is to start winning the winnable home games against good teams that should be close games.

    With fall baseball drawing to a close, anyone have any info on how things went?

    Agree. If we wanted a big 3 national championship, we'd put as much money as we could into this program. It's the only one with a chance.

    On this #SnowBowl12 eve....a thought back to that magical season....

    The actual day MSU football began to die was against LSU in Death Valley and surrendering a big lead against an average LSU team. Joe Lee ceased to be invincible at that point. Arkansas was the bigger nail, but that was the first real indication to me. We had a couple of last gasps - the Snow...
