If this ain’t a Mississippi State turn of events…

Dude averaged over 5 ypc for 3 years. Soft or not, this is a big loss. And calling out Leach is not a good look for us. Especially with other players appearing to agree with him.Someone on Twitter is saying his NIL is with Charmin ultra soft
That's going to be the problem in this age. Players these days talk and then recruiting and retention get even harder.
Sports God Doing Sports God Things to STATE. Give us a Baseball Natty then stomp our guts out the next year. Give us an Egg Bowl Win then kick us in the nuts. Maybe we'll get a Hoops Reach Around.
This is just the next step in the downfall of college football. The inmates are running the asylum, they have all the power.
Yea he is. That ****** does t practice a damn thing he preaches. Come on patdog
we are all getting the **** trolled out of us.
Well DJ was one of the reasons people were claiming we didn't run as much down the stretch and didn't beat Kentucky. DJ was the best back this year and were a better team with him on the field. All you guys thst make excuses for the offense used his absence as an excuse a lot not to mention those who claim retention, continuity, reps being a big deal. Not good when you have two of your top performers on offense wanting to transfer our before the damn bowl game has even been played.
Offense wasn’t good. This was a defensive team. Who cares if we lose these clowns, proof will be in pudding next year.
coaching didn’t lose us the LSU or Kentucky games. ****** play did
let it play out. Your man Mullen would have his *** handed to him if he was coaching now
there's this thing called depth. losing 2 and 3 year starters in your system hurts. you can't spin it any other way. it's not like we're dragging in 5 star proven producers to replace them
Every college football fan base sure loves to create a lot of drama, but we are the king when it comes to creating their tales to run with and convincing everybody that we are figuring out what goes down behind the scenes when we actually don't know a damn thing except what we've been told. Of course that has to be right, doesn't it? 100%
Some of the descriptions I've read about our football program and Coach from people using Twitter as a divining rod is absolutely 17ing hilarious

I can’t help but think DJ started looking for a better NIL deal, got his feelings hurt and couldn’t handle some tough love like Coach Prime dishes out. Smart, tough and fast. Toughness is part mental, part physical. DJ has a family he’s willing to uproot for 1 year of NIL money. But I don’t personally know him, so it is what it is.
Would it be fair to say that there are things Coach Prime can say that Leach cannot?
Still waiting. Oh that’s right you don’t know a thing. You just another keyboard hero acting like you in the know. Only thing we know is that you are a Dingo.
Be interesting to see this broken down by the number of snaps played transferring out.
Football players are not mentally tough anymore. Coach gets on your *** you take your toys and go home. That's how I see it.
Maybe we should rehire Moorhead and let the players run the show. Pay them whatever they want and all will be good.
You cannot buy the publicity we got last night. You may think that bad publicity is bad and in a way it is.
However, every RB recruit in America knows there's an open spot now in Starkville and you better not be soft

We lose 3 key starters and it's the fans creating drama? You can spin it however you want to, but this ain't good.
I think he's tough as nails on the football field.
But what he did here? ***** move. Complete *****.
Well boys if Leach didn’t have a hot seat before he surely does now. They are right about him publicly shaming players, he’s always been that kind of dude. I think he can still coach ball but he’s not fit for the up and coming college football culture. The coach doesn’t hold all the cards anymore, for better or for worse.
I don’t really have an opinion about being in a foxhole with 22 year old football players, more concerned with winning football games.
Yeah he’s saying it’s a bad look for Dillon Johnson too.
He’s definitely not wrong.
We’re seeing it in every phase of the working world too. No amount of compensation is enough, every shortfall is someone else’s fault, and if I’m not a VP by age 27, I’m outta here. Delusion is at an all time high these days
If you watch or pay close attention. The only persons getting ripped are the 2 people that did the recording and putting this out.
Former players are saying things like "My coach said a lot worse... is this s joke".
Leach will not be the one getting heat for this. It's going to be the 2 that set this up! And it might very well keep them off most teams. No coach is going want to think in the back of his mind.. "is he recording me". You can't do your job like that.
There is no spinning to be done. It's just facts.
Fact:
- NIL is making players believe they hold the cards when they do not.
- Either we can pay them or not.
- RaRa made a deal, came back to get more was told no. He left. Happened to every TEAM in the SEC. So what.
- 2 guys thought they would get what they wanted. They didn't and sought to burn it down. THOSE are the facts to that.
His seat is not even remotely warm. He’s not going to be in any hot seat because someone secretly recorded him talking about another player, and he didn’t even say anything that bad. Whoever did the recording needs to never play anywhere above SWAC level the rest of his career.
Those tweets are just as weak as Dillon Johnson's response. Coaches aren't friends and they don't and shouldn't have to kiss players asses to keep their jobs.
All this soft as **** is ridiculous. Do you fools not remember when scUM fans made a huge deal when Mullen was caught on camera cussing out a punter and they acted like he was the only coach that had ever dropped a cuss word?
These players aren't owed anything. Screw Dillon
I don't know Dillon Johnson other than what I've seen on the field. I certainly wanted him back next year as a fan.
But that tweet tells me a lot more about him personally than I knew before. Immature to say the least.
What player with a lick of sense sends a message to all the head coaches who might want to give him an opportunity that this is what they are capable of if they disagree with that coach down the line??
