I see where he is to visit Auburn this week. My battered MSU syndrome causes me to believe we may miss out. What do people who have a clue have to say about this as I have no idea how these recruiting battles operate?

Murphy's Law and Sod's Law got together by chance and had an illegitimate baby. They named it Mississippi State's Law.

Safe money is on MVB leaving and Lebby whiffing on Arnold. Remember last year when there were rumors of all the outstanding staff Lebby was assembling along with signing Dillion Gabriel? I do. And what did we end up with? Prepare for the worst.
Lebby might as well fire himself if that happened, so I can't see it happening

According to someone who is suppose to be in the know it's about 90%. He is gonna take some visits and unless he is blown away he will be reuniting with Lebby by the first of next week. The word is MVB will be gone. Maybe keep Shapen on the cheap.

Always prepare for the worst as that plays out more often than not for MSU.

No one, who can find their *** with at least one hand, really thought we had a chance in hell at Gabriel, not even Levee.

If you thought we did, I suggest you do some deep self reflection and take a look at all the ocean from property I have for sale in Oklahoma.

Gabriel was flirting with Levee out of loyalty, even Levee knew that.

Shapen is a decent option as a back up, provided he signs for the league minimum.

I'll be honest. This is the type of recruit that State's rarely ever been able to land in the best of times. Now, we're trying to convince ourselves that a 5* top player in the state of Texas is going to join a 2-10 MSU $hitshow just because Lebby is here?

Yeah, and Ryan Perrillouix was coming to play for Croom too. I'll gladly eat crow if Lebby proves me wrong, but my initial reaction is that Auburn isn't gonna lose this battle if Freeze really wants him

Best prepare yourself

I don't know jack. But that would be my best guess.

You have a high opinion of how well adjusted state fans are if you didn't think his Gabriel connection was being hyped by many people. And we're doing it again with another past QB connection. Our fans are either gullible or love disappointment. Both maybe?

Why would a QB of his caliber even consider coming to State? He's a waste of NIL with a SWAC OL protecting him. Got fix the lines first.

The writing is on the wall. The athletes that are visiting or saying they have received a State offer on social are MAC talents. I’m not optimistic.

I think the majority of our fanbase who are active on MBs/Social Media is just plain dumb. This board is bad enough, but a bunch of Elons compared to the mental midgets on elite dawgs. To cap it off, our fans who post in our FB fan forums are dumber than x 10 than SPSers or ED posters. To be fair, I do think we have a fair share of rebels masquerading as State fans in an effort to make us look even dumber.

I'm pretty confident in landing Arnold but it is always possible we could lose all 3. Wind up with Shapen and Taylor. Worst case scenario. My biggest concern is NOT hearing any talk of DL prospects visiting. Hopefully our future center visited Sunday. No commitment tho. The rumor is Auburn is paying him 25k just to visit. Idk about that.

Reading any FB/IG comments on the MSU pages is definitely embarrassing. It’s proof that grandmas shouldn’t have access to social media.

I hope none of our prospects ever read any of these boards. We do our best to run the school in the ditch every day about every topic. It's like some people come on here just to schitt on the school. And I know, I know. I have been a fan since the 70s. If we can screw this up we will.

It looks to me like its Shapen and Taylor
So could Freezus end up with Arnold, MVB and Craver?
Hes already got a good freshman Walker White I doubt hed take JA and VB

I find this highly accurate this board is much smarter, more reasonable than elitedawgs.

I have a good friend in OK. He is a hugh Boomer Sooner and has some minor inside intel. I asked him about JA this morning.

Here is his reply-“Jackson Arnold was not liked by the offense. He thought he was a step above them and had nothing to do with them off field. Dillon Gabriel was always taking the offensive line out to eat when he was here.”

This! We need at least 3 really good DL portal players. And a couple of OL.

If Shapen can stay healthy, that’s not bad. But if he gets injured yet again we’re in trouble.
