Damn, ain’t that the truth..
I didn’t know he was sec experienced.
My dumb *** thought he was some kick *** freshman

We are finding out why Leach didn’t push hard for him and why South Carolina let him go

Stone is not great, but to be fair, our D-Line is so bad the opposing OL easily get to second level and LBs are neutralized

I understand there have a lot of missed tackles by the whole team and a lot of holes but he is 3rd in the SEC in tackles. Just sayin.

He forced a turnover v Texas. He is a good player. However he is white. So some people have to pick on him.

Naw man. We've had good white linebackers over the years, some are good and some aren't. Speaking of white, how about Chris? Now HE was a good player.

Stone is more like TJ Mawhinney.

None of our LBs stand out this year. Hell some LBs just jog around and watch Manning run past them. But not Stone. However Stone is the one that gets all the mention....

I’m starting to suspect the players we already had on the roster are quite a bit better than these guys we added in the portal, Blanton, KPAKA, bingley Jones etc.

Ain't no "starting to" about it. The results clearly show that.

The one place I will give on is the DL. The outgoing ones were Avery Sledge, Khalid Moore, Kaleb Bryant, Jonathan Davis and Jacarius Clayton. They all transferred down and are playing sparingly. But, they are only second year players, and they were all the typical Mississippi 3 star players that we always got and developed. So we were going to be young on the DL this year no matter what, but not thin.

Pak is awful. Just awful. The portal did us dirty on that one.
