This thread is solid gold coming from fans of a school currently on probation for paying a recruit not to visit Ole Miss and buying a used Mustang. Not to mention the whole Pony deal. Self-awareness isn't a strong trait in this bunch.

Did you miss the part where we said we suck at cheating? Yes we do*
We also gave TheNetwork many backhanded compliments and said we wished we could do more of it. The payments to get high profile recruits just to visit and then throw the kitchen sink at them once you get them there is proving to be very smart.

That's my point. You do exactly the same thing. Pay kids to commit, to take only an MSU official, to sign, etc etc.. Been doing it just as long and effectively as we have. Only difference is Starkville has very little appeal to highly rated OOS players. Spent significant time in both cities, and Starkville is OK, just a different scene than Oxford.
Yeah I agree. The main point I'm making is that our fanbase needs to put a more concerted effort towards recruiting as a whole. I don't want to get the pre-madonna ***-clowns that Ole Miss gets either, but not all of those 4 and 5 star guys are like that. Alot of them would come to Mississippi State and take on the University's appeal as being a "grind it out" "hard working" type of place....... we just need to get them to Starkville to figure this mentality out. And we need an organized effort by our fan base and students to make that happen and make sure they have a blast while they are here. Whats so special about Oxford is the fact that they are organized and show recruits a hell of a time, nothing else. I mean their students put their cough syrup down long enough to chant "we want CeCe" at the damn basketball game. You think that had an effect on one of the top players in the country? Hell yes it did. It's nothing that we could not do here in Starkville as well.
We are recruiting very well, we could just do a little better.

As one poster pointed out we used to be pretty good in the recruiting game under
the dark prince but its not the same now. Yes, I think every poster in this thread knows we cheat just like everyone else but we aren't doing as good a job with it as you guys are and I mean that as a compliment.
We don't encourage our fans to come to Starkville and create a party atmosphere during the visits. It isn't Dan's strategy. He usually has the kids over to his house or they go out to a restaurant. Your strategy is clearly working with the higher ranked recruits and we might learn a thing or two.

Paid him not to visit Ole Miss huh? You might need to look back into that before you come over here looking like a douche.
This is a thread to make fun of your fan base for actually giving a **** about what some random message board poster says. You all have your sphincters so tight that you can't get some idiot message board poster out of your head long enough to straighten your bowtie, and realize that he's a message board poster just like me and you.

That line of thinking is where the problem lies in this outrageous theory you and others believe. Nobody encourages fans to come to Oxford to "create a party atmosphere" for recruiting weekends. That's just how it is on regular weekends. I spent two years in Oxford and it's the same on recruiting weekends as it is the rest of the year minus home games (just more people). I've been out a lot in Starkville and the bars just aren't anything near what it is in Oxford. I've had a better time at Brewsky's in Hattiesburg than at any bar in Starkville.
I'm not talking about a Will Redmond. You think he's the only commit your boosters have paid not to visit? Really? Come on man.
I don't care what Peaches says. It doesn't bother me at all. Remember, this is the person who wasn't man enough to pay a $50 bet. I find it hilarious, just like almost all Ole Miss fans. Sure, there's probably some fans on the Spirit who got real sandy vaginas. But the people on Twitter and elsewhere who went with The Network stuff think it is hilarious that he, and his band of gerbils, actually believe what he posted. He can say "rent free" all he wants, but the reality is he believed it when he typed it, and only said things like that when people from all over made fun of him.

That thread has over 59,000 views now. Even if your intentions are to make fun of him, all the hits and advertising his site are helping him, not hurting.
If you had more fun at Brewsky's in Hattiesburg than you did in Starkville, then we can no longer have a serious conversation.
Be careful, you're talking to gentleman who was educated for a whole "2 years" at Harvard of the South.
You are losing credibility. The big recruiting weekend is talked about my some
of my rebel friends that actually go up there to be a part of it. You guys relentlessly promote Oxford as party town USA. We don't do that, our choice. You also relentlessly dog the **** out of Starkville, which gets old.
Can you get just as drunk/high in Starkville as you can Oxford? I'm pretty sure you can but it's not something we promote, you guys do. Again, its ok, it is clearly working for you.

Well lucky for us they are playing for Mississippi State University which has a completely seperate CAMPUS from the city of Starkville. Are your players committing to Oxford or Ole Miss?
I think this sums it up pretty well...
That's way too much work for something/somebody you say is 'obsessed'....
He posts on his site and your fans care enough to visit said site, read his laborious post, create a hashtag, spend more than an entire day posting said hashtag, and even making tshirts...
I'm no fan of C34, but you guys took his troll bait and are spending way too much time and effort on this.
You cant give a half-serious rebuttal for something that doesn't exist in reality. It's like me telling you George Bush coordinated 9/11 or that unicorn exist because I said so. Oh, you have no proof that neither of those things are false? Must be true. That's what spending most of your time on a message board that doesn't take well to opinions opposite of the party line does. It's also what causes most cases of F.A.P.
We could always just visit your Twitter feed today. You know, the one where you stated people shouldn't talk poorly of people they don't know (yourself, Peaches), and then was cornered about your opinions about recruits and their motives for picking Ole Miss when, amazingly, you don't know them.

I didn't come to that opinion of Starkville until I spent an appreciable amount of time there. Hell, I'll be there this weekend. I'm also repeating the opinions of graduate students who have degrees from other universities who say it's boring comparatively (not just Ole Miss, but LSU, Indiana State, UNC, and others).
You're welcome to think Starkville is just as great as everywhere else, including Oxford. The opinions of people who aren't State fans (including more publications than i can remember) differs.

This argument is so tired. 18-24 year olds attending a major university don't need the help of a seperate city to be entertained. Older adults that can't move on from college maybe and that's exactly what you sound like when you attempt to put down Mississippi State by calling Starkville boring. There's 10,000 vaginas needing attention and limitless alcohol to drink and marijuana to smoke. Or you can even do this thing called "learning". 17ing douchebag Ole Miss fans. Did you attend the University of Oxford? What exactly does Oxford offer that Starkville doesn't? About the same size so what do y'all have that we don't. Not a 17ing thing. You have some hills and some trees. Wow. Are you into pretty trees? Chandeliers and red solo cups? Trying to date rape sorority sluts? Selfies with Bob Nkemdiche's boner?
Are you college age? No? Because that is what we are talking about, what makes it attractive to college kids. I know the replies get harder for you when they aren't "TO THE RESCUE" and what shift that poster covers.
Yo, pot! Look kettle cheatin!

Please tell me of this school currently on probation of which you speak. If you mean State, the NCAA has been to Oxford twice to pow-wow with you guys since State has gotten off probation, so I don't know where the self-awareness is on your part.
State gets busted for giving recruits discounts that anybody can get. When you have further proof, you can post it here are email it straight to our compliance.

That's a load of crap on two levels. A normal weekend is NOT the same as your big recruiting weekend. And it is coordinated not just with the students but with the alums as well. Been there and have seen it in action. You think every state fan does not have ole miss fans as family and friends who are able to share info and have fun together? Who actually are connected? That we can get after each other without turning into a family feud? That stuff doesn't get shared from both sides? That recruits don't talk? That we haven't party there and been apart of happenings to know what we are talking about? You are being delusional if you think that it's exactly same as any other weekend.
D61 - the reason they feel the way they do is because all of their entertainment is literally within one square city block or two, if they had to look any further they would get lost and miss the parties all together. Probably couldn't find their own butts with a road map or GPS on the smart phones their diddies gave them. I am way past the partying age and have spent time in both towns during daylight hours and I can guarantee that their town has nothing to brag about once you get away from their beloved square and clump of trees. Starkville has several clumps of trees, we call them city parks, as do most towns of similar sizes, excepting one fact that most parks in the other towns including Starkville don't continually reek with the smell of vomit and urine. Actually, during the daytime the square in Oxford looks like the parts of Starkville's downtown areas before we tore them down or renovated the buildings. Minus the klan rallies, the square in Oxford doesn't look much different than the town squares in the county seats of most of north MS counties.
You are right
But it is June 7, 2015. But it doesn't give the termination in the paper, only Mirando's date.
