I just read an article on why Caleb Williams didn't choose to transfer to Ole Miss

A couple of gems in the article:

https://atozsports.com/nashville/tennessee-vols-news-football-ole-miss-rebels-football-lane-kiffin/

Williams? father was actually a big fan of Kiffin during the transfer process.

?Lane Kiffin was fun. I liked Lane,? said Carl Williams to Sports Illustrated.

So why didn?t Ole Miss make the final cut for Caleb?

Well, because it?s Ole Miss. And Carl doesn?t view the Rebels as a marquee program.

?It was going to be tough for us to go to Mississippi,? said Carl. ?Other guys were trying to put on a show. ?You can change the trajectory of our program!? Dude, we don?t care about your trajectory, the school colors, and buildings. It?s who can get this kid ready for the NFL.?

and

"If Kiffin is loved by recruits and parents, but he?s missing out on elite players because he coaches for Ole Miss and not a more prestigious program, well that could be a major problem for the former Tennessee Vols head coach. I don?t think Kiffin is going to be alright with missing on elite players just because he wears a powder blue shirt."

Hahaha. That can't be good for their egos.

I am serious. I come to this board for either A) hilarity B) to tell Irish to 17 himself C) any bit of Mississippi State related news/banter/talk.

We can agree that we hate OM. So why in the entire 17 do we even talk about them?

You get the impression...

that they make really big deal about the Powder Blues and Greek Revival Architecture on these recruiting visits....

Dude, we don't care about your trajectory, the school colors, and buildings

Then stop coming to the board if you don’t want to read about them and something negative happens to them.

How is this suffering? Caleb Williams wanted to go to a bigger program, whatever. Would we have loved to get him? Yes

Are we glad to get another stud QB and TE? Are we glad that you struck out in recruiting and in the portal? Of course.

A top recruit said you are a Busch league program. You ask how is that suffering. Is that one or two scoops of koolaid in the zima?

You didn't find those comments hilarious? Then maybe you should listen to dawgstudent and move on

What? Stop coming to an MSU board if you don’t want to read about OM?

To believe the two programs aren’t forever linked is to ignore reality. Both programs share a state, a history, and one of the nation’s most bitter rivalries. Personally, I love hearing when something bad happens to them or they get **** on publicly.

Interesting.
I don’t necessarily come here to read the barely readable events of an unnamed sps poster and his baby mama/side chick drama either.

You are literally 24th to our 27th. That lines up with how recruiting has gone since the turn of the century. But you keep doing you and let no one besmirch the name of dear Ole Miss on an opposing team's message board. To the rescue!

Any time you lose - it makes me happy. You lost.

That was for the hilarity of it. But touché. Dug deep into the beers last night. May or may not regret it but it happens.
