On Head to Head radio today....
- Thread starter dawgged
- Start date
I really like the new show. I listen going home everyday. I have to agree with you though. I get the "Head to Head", but he is a dick. It also seems as if his football and overall knowledge is not up to par. I also grow tired of the "fans take rivals to far" part. I hate pricks like him.
Dont care for Bo Bounds either. His "your to emotional" crap drives me crazy. He is the only state fan that says we will be lucky to get 6 wins. I would be okay with it if he had facts to back up his statement. I dont think he does any research, just looks at the name on the front of the jerseys...

Well it is a fact... That was pretty damn funny.
I wanted to call in and point out the fact that Nutt's best years in his last two positions were the first two seasons, when he was playing with the recruits of his predecessor. Bo Bounds is mainly an idiot, but he said we have the better program, not because we recruit better, but because who is running the show. I was too busy to call in but Wyatt does a good job keeping Cross in check when his Bear colors start to show.

I tried to like him but his show is complete garbage... Bo, if your reading this and I know you are. Please stop with the damn commercials. Also, you have driven this ya'll lifestyle thing into the ground. Please stop the slow death otherwise I'm sticking with Dan Patrick.
Pros: GREAT guests. Getting Brad Edward weekly is a coup. He has gotten Wake Forest's Head Coach, Jerry Tarkanian, etc.which were great interviews. The VERY long interview he had with former LSU and Army coach Paul Dietzel was very good.
Cons: Ya'll lifestyle. Regularly eating at Shapley's, regularly going to Tourquois Place, and daily drinking expensive whiskey and wines, will land you in bankruptcy court. Give it a rest.
Cons Part II: During the LT days, Bo said going 7-5 is easy...schedule 4 patsies and win2 to 3SECgames. "No big deal, follow the Kentucky model." Now we have an easy non-conference schedule and Bo says winning 6 games isn't so easy. Whichone is it Bo?
As for Head to Head,Cross is lousy and Matt is better...but not by much. I had high hopes for this show. I'm about ready to throw in the towel on these guys.

Can we get a radio show that only talks SEC stuff all the time? Better yet, since we are in Mississippi, how about a radio show that is 1 hour long to discuss everything MSU TSUN. How hard could that be?
Maybe throw in 2 minute segments to update you on the stories NFL, NBA, MLB that the other radio shows are sure to touch on

Actually I like the guy's show. He gets good guests and every now and then he makes a lucid point. But damn it, enough already with the Y'all Lifestyle crap. I really don't care how many times you eat at Shapley's, what kind of expensive booze you drink or how many times you go to Orange Beach. Game day beer? Dude, for me, the game beer is a) Bud Light or b) whatever kind they're serving if I'm a guest at someone else's place. You sound like a pretentious prick with all the other stuff. Stick to sports.
was the morning after the last year's Thursday night Auburn game on my drive back to Natchez from Starkville. He raked Mullen through the coals for not being able to pull out a win in a "big game" at home. He went on to say that the upcoming Georgia game would determine wether Mullen had a successful career at State or not, and that we would be doing good to win 3 more ballgames regardless. We saw had that prediction panned out.....
It's regular radio, ads are the only thing that keep them running.
Regarding his stances on MSU/OM/whomever, you guys do also realize that he is simply trying to stir the pot and generate callers/interest, right? Just from looking at this thread it seems like he's doing a pretty good job of getting people riled up and voicing their opinions...

That's not really true.
His two trips to Atlanta at Arkansas came in Years 5 and 9 of his tenure there.
He didn't spend 8 years in the doldrums at Arkansas after starting out strong with Ford's recruits.
In fact, his record in Years 4-10 at Arkansas was 52-35 (29-27) with 2 SEC title game appearances and 5 bowl appearances (3 of which were NYD bowls). His overall record at Arkansas was 75-48 (42-38). He averaged basically the same number of wins without Ford's recruits as he did with Ford's recruits, roughly 7.5 wins per year.
You need to quit listening to your Arkansas friends. We haven't seen what he's going to do at Ole Miss in Years 4 and beyond yet, but he's on a similar path, averaging about the same number of wins with Orgeron's recruits (7.3) as he did with Ford's recruits (7.6) and with his own recruits at Arkansas (7.4). I wouldn't be shocked at all if over the coming years he averages 7+ wins here too with his own players again.

That statement was a little off, but I think the point is that we haven't seen Mullen with his own recruits yet either. We will in 2012 and really 2013, if he sticks around to coach them. We'll see if he can match or exceed what he did with a previous coach's recruits when he's playing with his own. The jury is still out on that, and I don't think the result is a slam dunk.
In Cross' rant, he said "this is big boy radio, so if you can't handle that then maybe this isn't the show for you". Apparently, Bo has been working with Cross to unleash his inner douche. I couldn't listen to any more after that.
Yeah, Richard, you've hit the big time in "Big Boy Radio" with your afternoon local MS sports radio show. Dick.

or have a lot of pull....for the love of all that is holy, please keep hootie around for 10 years.
Has nobody here ever seen a HS practice in their hometown? Is a college practice really any different?
If I am supposed to hang my head in shame, I will say it is better than hanging it in shame of being obese.
And you know as well as I do that this poster wouldn't have lasted a week here in the early days. Things change. I understand.

I'd give head to head a b- so far - great bumper music - and the guys are getting better. Bo, well that's another story. I'd rather listen to 3 hrs of "Magic Jack" commercials than 3 minutes of 'out of out'. He's sold out to TSUN advertisers and should have his Bulldog card pulled from his big boy pants. What a pathetic Mullen going to Georgia, UF, Miami, ND or where ever fixation - only thing he has to stoke his TSUN advertisers - sad - he has marginalized what insight he was gifted with to cater to some fictional 'life style'. I would like to see him do a remote from some alcoholic rehab business - that would be rich! He has gone down the 'Coach Mac' path, he dominated talk radio until he got greedy and became all commercials. I've gone back to Chuck Stinson's show. It's a refreshing and under rated - considering the options.
since I graduated 13 years ago and that was right after graduation....and we are a pretty good team. So, yeah, going to high school practices seems a little strange to me unless you are covering them. High school sports just does nothing for me.
The thread yesterday entitled something like "I don't understand this 'Grindin' thing" left me shaking my head. I don't don't know if its due to our fanbase's enthusiasm right now, or if Sixpack is simply continuing to get more popular.
But as always, if you don't like it.... then you can get the 17 out.

Has your HS ever won a national championship? Ever had a national coach of the year? Ever won 89 straight games for the 3rd longest streak in HS football history? Ever produce multiple SEC recruits each year? It's kind of a big deal in this area.Roy Munson said:
I happen to live here. So its not like I'm running down to Jones County from Bama or Tenn like you to see some mediocre program with no talent compete. People in Senatobia and other surrounding communities buy season tickets just to watch SP every week. People come down from Memphis, Tupelo, and other areas even when their school isn't playing SP.
Trust me...seeing USP practice or play games isn't rare for people around here.
Is Todd4State weird for cleat chasing HS baseball players around the state? http://sixpackspeak.yuku....not-a-flame#.Tk6PB13cxI4

I think making, selling, and wearing tshirts about how cool your message board is is kind of gay and weird, but to each his own.
just the whole idea of making a big deal about high school sports is strange to me. The folks back home freakin tailgate and **** before the mustangs take the field (they arent USP, but they have had a good decade or so run). My memphis friends get off by Christian Brothers athletics as much as they do for state. Yes, that **** is strange to me to, and i ridicule them daily for it. Now that i think about it, i had a few of them drag me to the christian brothers vs. i think madison central??? game many moons ago. So i have been to 3 quarters of that game and one quarter of a west jones game.I dont think its strangebecause youre a um guy. It has just never appealed to me. Also, ive been living in jackson for 3 years now so not near as far as tn or al.
I guess id rather be somewhere else on a friday night.

Me too. That's why I usually watch from the comfort of my laptop and couch after grilling out. I go to a few games per year. Usually a big regular season game and a home playoff game.Roy Munson said:
At the same time, I have friends who can't understand me following a rarely successful MS college team. They feel it is a waste of time and money.
Many times we have 10,000+ at our games. We have people tailgate too. I don't participate in that, but I understand why they do. Some of these people don't follow college like we do, but instead follow SP. When SP plays Hoover next week, there will be a ton of people that travel to AL to watch.

I haven't, and I've been doing this "athletics" thing for 17+ years.
Going to HS practices is just kinda odd, even if they are the best team in the state.
For RougeDawg: What recruits do you think Mullen has been playing with his first two years? Sure, there are some JUCOs that he brought in and a few freshmen/sophs that contributed (just like Nutt did (Trahan, Allen, Smith, G Harris, Stephens, Massie, Shackelford, Bolden, etc.), but the next 2-3 years will really tell the tale on Mullen's first two years of recruiting and Croom's last year of recruiting, just as it did at Ole Miss. If MSU keeps up the 9 win seasons the next few years, then the hype is justified. If he doesn't, then he'll just be another coach who won with the previous coach's recruits.
but as we always said - if you make point and back it up - positive or not - it will stay.
Plus, there are too many people to police them all.
