The two pricks that I work with can't stand the fact that Croom is killing them in recruiting this year. How anyone can talk as much **** about state as they do after having an 0-8 SEC record is baffling. I normally just laugh at them but could not take it any longer on friday. After reminding them of their record last year, they came back with how many national titles does state have. It's really no point in arguing with these arrogant 17s.

 

[patdog]

I'm sure there are 10's of people outside the Rebel faithful who give a **** about what happened before the first black student was ever even enrolled at Mississippi.

Some are already doing it. I'm sure more will come as it gets closer to signing day. Give them a break though. It's only fair considering how much they heard about Orgeron and Ole Mi$$ when he was bringing in highly rated recruits.

That's the funny thing to me. Neither collective fanbase believes that the other is capable of recruiting well without cheating. However, each fanbase collectively believes that their own school is capable of recruiting well without any funny business.

From what I hear, I think that's pretty normal, at least in the SEC. My school doesn't cheat, but if my rival does well, then it's a widely known fact that they're cheating like crazy.

Why is it that I never encounter Ole Miss fans like you describe, even though I'm a Rebel and around Rebels all the time?

I might also ask how State fans, while they should be excited, can be quite AS wooly as they are right now after barely beating Ed Orgeron and going to the Liberty Bowl.

[Todd4State]

You should have asked them how many of their NC's are real.

 

[DiamondReb]

Conner was a very nice pick up. Could be great RB or LB. Has a great offer list. I haven't been too impressed with what Croom had until he landed Conner. Very impressive.

 

[Todd4State]

Maybe it's because you're a Rebel and there's no reason for other Rebels to talk trash to you. Just going out on a limb there.

As far as being wooly, maybe it's because not only did we win the Liberty Bowl and beat Ole Miss, but we beat Bama, Auburn and a good UK team on the road, and now it looks like (always hold judgement until they do something in an SEC game) we are having a solid recruiting class. We are signing most of the top players in the state of Mississippi, and some have offers from people like LSU and Bama.

Ole Miss fans would be wooly to, in fact I remember that they were pretty wooly after the 97 season where they barely beat MSU, beat LSU and won the Motor City Bowl.

And you, my friend, are the prime example of the type of fan I'm talking about. You sincerely believe that your school never has and never will do anything wrong, yet at the same time you firmly believe that your rival is always cheating.

We do well in recruiting, we're cheating. You do well in recruiting, it's perfectly clean. You have to be really ignorant if that's the stance you always take. From what I've seen, this is what you truly believe.

I believe Croom probably doesn't cheat directly, though I'm more than willing to bet that he or his staff have made unintentional minor mistakes before, and I'm confident you've had boosters either blatantly or unknowingly commit minor violations. It's virtually impossible for a school to never commit even minor violations, no matter how diligent the coaching staff and administration are. That said, I can tell you right now that Orgeron and his staff were no different than Croom when it came to following the rules. They occasionally made minor mistakes unintentionally, but they were not out blatantly cheating. And I can tell you that we have boosters that sometimes blatantly, sometimes accidentally make mistakes.

However, to say that MSU is perfectly clean under Croom is ignorant. No school is perfectly clean no matter how much you try. And to say that Ole Miss has always been cheating blatantly is as sheepish as you can get. Let me guess, Jackie was completely innocent wasn't he?

You brought in a guy who had been on the West Coast for half a decade, had ZERO ties to the state of MS or the Southeast, and was pulling in commits from 4-5 star guys for a team that never had better than 4 wins? NOOOOOOOOOOO, there was nothing underhanded going on there.

I have no knowledge or even pretend to know whether any money ever changed hands, but you can't tell me there wasn't anything shady going on with regards to getting kids with VERY questionable academics into Ole Miss under Ogre's watch. I think you know who prime example #1 is... </p>

 

[Todd4State]

I don't know if O was or wasn't cheating, and I don't really care.

But one thing that people never seem to talk about is that a lot of his "big time" recruits couldn't get in or stay in school. I think that was where O really screwed yall. He would get these guys that were 4 stars, but no one else wanted them because the LSU's of the world knew that they wouldn't stay in school. So you ended up with a highly rated class of AJ Jackson's, and then you would only a get a few productive players. Very similar to JWS last few classes without as many JUCO's. Basically, what ya'll did would be like hiring a really hot prostitute to go to a party with you so that you could pass her off as your girlfriend. It would make you feel good and look good at the time, but the truth is inexcapable.

Now as far as State fans cheating or Croom cheating- I don't believe Croom is cheating, and if he is, I'm sure it's very minor. It's not like we've been reeling in 5 star guys since he has been here. And if we paid for Keon Humphries, someone needs to get their money back. I don't know why we're recruiting so well, especially coming off of an 8 win season with a guy that gets a lot of good pub from ESPN who is being hailed as a pioneer, and has a lot of ties to the NFL. It doesn't make any sense to me either. (Sarcasm) As far as State fans, most State fans that are ballin' just aren't as likely to pay some high school kid 10 grand to play for Dear ol' State as some of the other fans in the conference- namely Bama. I think it's a combination of not being as rabid about recruiting as some of the other fans in the conference, the fact that we've seen one too many Dontae Walker's, and the fact that we've been nailed by the NCAA too many times for minor BS. Again, I stress not LIKELY vs not HAPPENING AT ALL just to be clear.

And I guess if you want to list beating the Mighty Ed Orgeron barely as a reason for being wooly, and beating Bama (a hollow brand name last year that got beat by the worst team in the conference, Ole Miss, except for a bolt of fortunate lightning they didn't deserve), okay. I'm just saying the level of wool going on right now is a little absurd.</p>

</p>

Go back and show me where we won a recruiting battle for a guy that was really heavily recruited by major schools. There weren't that many. Orgeron's selling point was that he was willing to set a "plan" in place for a lot of borderline guys. That, along with being the first to contact players and offering early playing time were his selling points. Believe me when I tell you that there was no organized cheating going on within our program under Orgeron. There was under Brewer, but not under Orgeron. Mistakes were made, but all of them were secondary, and they weren't intentional. If we had been cheating, you better believe we'd have gotten in trouble for it. There were plenty of people looking for things to get us on.

Going back to our 2006 class, which was the one the recruitniks loved the most, here are the blue chips we landed:

Schaeffer - a Juco QB only recruited by a handful of major schools that were in need of a quick fix (we were the only school to fly to visit both his parents in Florida and him in California on the same day)
Eason - he and Dixon were 1 and 2 in that class as far as RBs in Mississippi, you landed Dixon
Cornell - California guy, borderline on grades, qualified over the summer, not as heavily recruited by the West Coast schools because of grades
Lockett - Louisiana guy, borderline on grades, not heavily recruited by LSU (qualified late in the process)
Allen Walker - heavily recruited, borderline on grades, had a questionable jump in his ACT score that allowed him to qualify
Powe - not recruited by anyone but us
John Jerry - South Panola guy originally, signed from Hargrave
Aubrey McPhadden - not heavily recruited due to grades, didn't make it
Terry Levy - same as McPhadden

Walker and maybe Eason and Schaeffer were the only guys in that class where we beat out some decent schools that were legitimately pushing for the players. Winning 3 recruiting battles in a year is not a lot for an SEC school. The rest of the guys we landed were sold on "the plan". The same thing happened this past year with USM, as they landed a lot of top recruits in state that were borderline.

The only questionable things that went on were with regards to getting guys academically qualified. And even with that, all we were doing was exploiting the system with BYU courses, prep schools, etc. Orgeron was doing what many people were doing with players to get them eligible. He was just doing it with more prospects than most schools.

</p>

Well, and he also hired his assistants solely for recruiting purposes, which I believe was one of his main problems. He hired Freeze to get a foothold in Memphis. He hired Wilson to get into Louisiana. Sadly, he saw everything, even the actual games themselves, as recruiting tools. That's why he started guys like Oher and Strong from Game 1 of their true freshman year when they really weren't ready. It was all about showing that he was willing to play true freshmen, so that he could point to that when he went to recruit guys for the next class.

The momentum was all Ole Miss. We was robbed. Even had we not scored, then the worst case scenario is Bama had to fight tooth and nail to barely beat the worst team in the conference. And ultimate point being MSU should be glad they beat Bama but not wooly. Much like you should find it somewhat cool you had sex with, say, Britney Spears, but if it was after finding her cracked out in a dumpster with her head shaved and crabs on her luggage, you should not run around predicting next year you're going to bang Jennifer Anniston and Jessica Biel.</p>

</p>He was from Louisiana. He had coached in Louisiana and Florida. He had a couple ties to the Southeast.

Was he cheating, or boosters cheating? I'm sure they were, even though I have no evidence. Its just how college football is.

Is Melvin Smith cheating? I'm sure he is, even though I have no direct evidence that he is, other than he has cheated at every school he has been at, including Ole Miss. Does Croom know his history? Of course he does.

It looks pretty dumb- and bust Bama's balls for this as well by the way on their mythical 1941 NC- when you claim something you don't have. But hey, whatever makes you feel better.

dense?

You tell us.

 

[Todd4State]

I remember Ole Miss fans talking about how they were going to win a NC with Tuberville and how thier defense shut down Randy Moss, and how Romaro Miller and Deuce were going to dominate. Trust me, there was plenty of wool from your fans in 97. "We're on the rise" was often repeated from your fans.

And to be clear we're not happy that we beat O. We're happy that we beat Ole Miss and Bama. Those are two of our biggest rivals. It doesn't matter how "hollow" either of their names are. It would be just like you beating State and LSU and winning a minor bowl in the same season- which is exactly what you did in 97. And aGAIN beyond that we also beat Auburn and UK on the road. I also like how Ole Miss fans point out how we "barely" beat them when the truth is Ole Miss probably played about as well as they possibly could and State played about as bad as we possibly could and STILL won.

So, excuse us for having a little bit of wool on a MISSISSIPPI STATE sports board after having a good season and starting of recruiting well. Hell, you know it's good when Coach34 says that we are recruiting well. Maybe you should try the Spirit so you can reminisce about the 50's. I can GUARANTEE you that if you had the season we did and started off recruiting like we have, you would talking about how you are "back" and about the BCS. If you think that wouldn't happen, you are either delusional, lying, or stupid. Difference is, you wouldn't have State fans going to NAFOOM telling you to stop being "so wooly".

I remember Ole Miss fans talking about how they were going to win a NC with Tuberville and how thier defense shut down Randy Moss, and how Romaro Miller and Deuce were going to dominate. Trust me, there was plenty of wool from your fans in 97. "We're on the rise" was often repeated from your fans.

And to be clear we're not happy that we beat O. We're happy that we beat Ole Miss and Bama. Those are two of our biggest rivals. It doesn't matter how "hollow" either of their names are. It would be just like you beating State and LSU and winning a minor bowl in the same season- which is exactly what you did in 97. And aGAIN beyond that we also beat Auburn and UK on the road. I also like how Ole Miss fans point out how we "barely" beat them when the truth is Ole Miss probably played about as well as they possibly could and State played about as bad as we possibly could and STILL won.

So, excuse us for having a little bit of wool on a MISSISSIPPI STATE sports board after having a good season and starting of recruiting well. Hell, you know it's good when Coach34 says that we are recruiting well. Maybe you should try the Spirit so you can reminisce about the 50's. I can GUARANTEE you that if you had the season we did and started off recruiting like we have, you would talking about how you are "back" and about the BCS. If you think that wouldn't happen, you are either delusional, lying, or stupid. Difference is, you wouldn't have State fans going to NAFOOM telling you to stop being "so wooly".

I don't remember ONE SINGLE SOLITARY Ole Miss fan talking national championship back then. Never mind that I live and work among Ole Miss fans and not the 5 percenters who are forced to work with MSU fans.

No, if we had the season you had we wouldn't be talking about being "back". Hell, we won 10 games a few years ago and other than one guy making a book embarrassingly titled "Return to Glory," I don't know ONE SINGLE SOLITARY FAN in my scope of experience who felt wooly or was talking national championships. And that was the Cotton Bowl, not the Liberty Bowl.

You should have asked them how many of their NC's are real.

The tired refrain from a fan base who could only cream of a NC. Just saying.</p>

it's better to pretend that you have them when you don't actually have any than it is to say that you don't?

It looks pretty dumb- and bust Bama's balls for this as well by the way on their mythical 1941 NC- when you claim something you don't have. But hey, whatever makes you feel better.

Seriously fartworth, OMspirit is begging you to come back. You reek of one of Yancy's little followers

The "level of wool going on right now is ridiculous", and obviously felt the need to post it here, supposedly the most negative MSU sports site in the Universe. If you're so upset about the level of wool, why don't you so something simple like, oh I don't know, not look at MSU sports sites. Or even better, jump off of a cliff without a rope attached to your body.

What you are doing would be like me going to a Metallica concert and complaining that the noise is to loud and asking them to turn the amps down.

The truth is you can't stand it when good things happen for State. You're no worse than State fans that only want bad things to happen to Ole Miss.

it looks dumb.

or are denying the truth. You did have some fans that were talking about the NC in 97. And don't feel bad, we have Rosebowl Robertson after all. There's nothing wrong with feeling good after you have a good season. We do it, and guess what OLE MISS fans do it to! No, not all of them, but there was plenty of wool to go around. The difference is most of us didn't go to an Ole Miss board and feel the need to tell them to stop feeling good. And as far as the Cotton Bowl, you clearly have blocked out Spurlock is better than Eli. Yeah, maybe as a kick returner.

Also, as far as Return to Glory, I didn't realize that Rick Cleveland was an Ole Miss fan. Guess I'll cancel that subscription to the C-L after all.

You obviously have really ****** short term memory.
