Talking about TIght Ends today. I always love the show but dang I feel like I heard "tight ends are good not great" in some way shape or form 30 times

Our TEs are average at best. All the "premium" writers will call a position or player "great" if a) they start b) can reference a draft pick in the past 10 years or c) are not a total liability. If you check one of those boxes, you're great.

I heard that we will suck again at the position and unfortunately it's true. Like HD said, we'll get 300yds and 3-4 td's out of them

Might be right, but if it is, it makes the cutting loose of Ravian Pierce even more nonsensical.

Personally I think Farrod continues to step up. It's always a dangerous proposition to define a ceiling for a guy that has a tremendous work ethic and has already come as far as he has with no signs of reaching a ceiling thusfar. It's the exact comment I used on Dak every step along the way and I think it applies here.

I think Johnson is what he is. Probably entered pretty near his ceiling from Hoover. Still think we can get something from him, even if it's primarily perimeter blocking.

Thomas still the x-factor.

Then you have Roberson and Dontea coming off redshirts. One of the two needs to step up and be pretty good somewhere along the way, if not this year. Both were fairly highly recruited guys.

In Mullen's career:
09 - 319yds, 3tds
10 - 120yds, 0tds
11 - 397yds, 6tds
12 - 405yds, 8tds
13 - 514yds, 3tds
14 - 486yds, 5tds
15 - 310yds, 2tds
16 - 203yds, 2tds

Changing coaches could be a little bit of an x-factor -- and we have more talent at the spot cumulatively than we have had under Mullen previously.

The numbers projected line up with all of Mullen's career at TE -- outside of the Malcolm Johnson era. I'm not ready to say we will have a Malcolm Johnson(also not ready to say we don't), but we certainly have a number of guys that can match Marcus Green/Brandon Hill level production.

I knew I was overstating it.

Posted in the 24/7 TE ..
The TE position has just not been a great receiving 'threat' under Mullen. It is a fact. Last year, we had 25 receipts for 203 yards and 2 TDs from the 3 TEs that caught passes. We seem to have this discussion every spring hoping that a couple of 'Arkansas type' TEs would emerge. (ie. in '15 Henry & Sprinkle combined for 78/1128 (14.5) 9 TD at TE) Malcolm Johnson was the 'best' receiving TE at MSU in the last couple of years.

'14 32/380yds 4TD
Malcolm Johnson 28/380 (13.6) 3TD
Gus Walley 4/49 (12.2) 1 TD

'15 40/351yds 3 TD
Gus Walley 19/146 (7.7) 1 TD
Darrion Hutcherson 16/164 (10.2) 1 TD
Justin Johnson 5/42 (8.2) 1 TD

'16 25/203yds 2 TD
Farrod Green 11/121 (11.0) 1 TD
Jordan Thomas 9/48 (5.3) 1 TD
Justin Johnson 5/34 (6,8) 0 TD

B&B show sucks with just Brian. No offense.

No offense?

You just told him his show sucks. How could he possibly be offended?

I've listened to just about every show they've done and appreciate the guy taking time to keep us informed. For those of us who don't live in Mississippi the B&B Show is great for staying up-to-date on all things MSU. I'm actually disappointed on those rare occasions I open the app and there's not a show.

Right there with you, 31. Living two states away I often listen more than once to the same show if there aren't many. I actually catch things I missed the first time through. BSR has become an invaluable part of my State fanaticism; SPS as well.

Unless you know something I do not, we just lost Pierce. He was a 'take' for us.

We informed Ravian to look elsewhere. Two of the JUCO DB's we landed were somewhat unexpected, and once we got them there was no room for Pierce. No doubt the kid can play and we would love to have had room for him, but our needs at DB were bigger than our needs at TE. At least that's how I understand it went down. Pierce wanted to sign with State but we did not take him.

I listen to the B&B show, Skydawgs and Double Coverage. All three are excellent.

It can't be easy going solo, but these guys pull it off.

Kudos.

The show with him alone is not good imo, am I not allowed an opinion?

It might not be everyone's cup of tea, but it's mine. The BSR app is invaluable part of my day. I travel at least 100 miles a day and these shows are the only thing playing on the radio in my car. Hadad's grasp of all things MSU is nothing short of amazing. He's a couple years younger than me and his ability to recall MSU history takes me back to many things I have forgotten. Carskadon is the straight guy and equally brings something to the show. I love them both.
Hadad does something very few of us could do, talk seamlessly and knowledgeably about topic after topic over the course of a show. There are so many things I'd like to ask Brian, but can only muster a "I really enjoy what you guys do. Thank you."

Nobody is above reproach, but questioning his knowledge and talent is barking up the wrong tree.

You hadads cousin or what?

Look, bob always gets all the heat, so I figured I'd take a shot at Brian and get the heat off bob.

Indeed he did. Faustdog can EAD along with his cheetos.

Let me say as a dawg that lives in Nashville, the BSR app is part of my daily routine and is invaluable. Keep up the good work. I interjected an unpopular 2 cents and that's ok.

If I may interject another 2 cents, for every show bob misses, he gets one punch in the face.

Nope. Just two of the nicest MSU guys I've met. It's all good. I'm sure he likes the heat. We're all family.

***** crazy, I see guys on here talk mad **** about the DC show with jake wimberly.

But say one thing about Brian hosting the show by himself and the board goes nuts.

I like jake a lot. He has a style. I've shook hands with both Brian and Bob. Those guys are aces in my book.

This is bs. We've got open scholarships for days -- both against the 25 and the 85.

Attention: To any OM tight ends worth a damn reading this

If you want to play on a winning team and in a bowl game the next two years...call us. If you are a ****** tight end or are prone to diving out of 3rd story windows.....never mind.

Am a huge fan of BSR and B&B. Think the TE position has a lot of potential. Would love for the position be more of an offensive threat. It make the offense way more versatile; adds another option.
