Cheap Asss Dumb Asss U. Everything on training wheels. Keenum should take a position in DC and get the hell out of Starkville. That meddling ******* imploded our football program. Brought in an inexperienced AD that took the easy route to hire his buddy in an inexperienced head coach. All the damn experienced coaches out there and we went green horn two years in a row. Our school is ran by dumbasses and magnified in the decisions that have made in football. Good job boys you just sent us back to the 60s and 70s in football.

Yes, Keenum is the chairman of the college football playoff committee and the most respected president in the SEC. Clearly he needs to move on because some dipshit on the internet got drunk and mad.

Not drunk dumass. Keenum is a piece of **** who has brought our university down in several categories not just sports but he was the dumbass that brought in Arnett and selmon and hired cohen. Dude spends to much of his time going to national committee meetings rather than actually fixing the school. Typical politician and lobbyist. Needs to go back to DC

Were you singing his praises during the Mullen years?? What about the baseball national championship? By your logic he gets credit for athletics. So when the basketball teams are good this year you'll post good things about him?

I imagine Keenum bowed to the SEC to help them with their DEI initiatives and that’s how we got an AD with no true AD experience. He sacrificed MSU athletic future for political gain.

He didn't hire that AD that was responsible for Mullen or cohen. He didn't promote cohen who hated Mullen and also ran off our girls basketball coach. And who kept us behind the curve in many of our sports except the one he came from. Not to mention our academic rankings have been falling as well that's more concerning than the athletics

Can you point on the doll where he touched you? I bet the people at your job love your calm and logical demeanor. Will you give him credit for a good basketball or baseball season? My guess is you are an all complaint, no solution kind of fella.
Also, I'm not a Selmon fan yet but judging he or Lebby at this point is ridiculous.

No im actually a logical facts based analytical problem solver. I'm not an excuse maker and demand high standards. Unlike the bs I see with MSU on a regular basis these days. Bunch of weak loser boys. I bet you get ran over all the time at work and take it and accept your mediocre and ****** results you get. I bet your wife if you have one has a boyfriend on the side.

Selmon has sat on his hands while our baseball program falls off and Keenum is too busy attending his committee meetings for college football rather than trying to help our university actually be better.

I retract my comments. Your post above definitely points to you being level headed and logical. My bad. I'm sure your afternoon shift crew at Jiffy Lube loves your leadership style

It's obvious our leadership is lacking. That much isn't debatable.
We've been better for sure.

However, walking around Knoxville today.... I'm reminded Mississippi State is unfortunately located and lacks the funding of its peers.

State athletic budget $130 million
Lebby salary $4.5 million
2-8

Indiana athletic budget $140 million
Cignetti salary $5 million
10-0

It's more about leadership than anything else right now. You make the right hire(s) and you can be competitive.

I'm not saying we'd be 10-0 with Cignetti, but it's obvious a national coaching search would've placed him above Lebby, & we'd be at least competitive.

In my profession that would be considered incompetence.

Honestly in knowledge of building a program out of 100, I’d put Cig at 97 and Lebby at 3 or 4.

Lebby will have some money at his disposal next year. I'm going to hold out hope & see how he does in the portal. He'll have no excuse. If he doesn't at least field a competitive team, in the next couple of years, the writing will be on the wall.

One thing I'll give Lebby, he's got a pretty good O & works his tail off. Hopefully he can learn from his mistakes & build a quality team. If not Selmon should be gone with him.

I don’t give Lebby a low grade as a play caller, he’s above average there for the most part, but that’s not what this job required. this hire required a guy who could come in and rebuild a program from the ground up based on experience.

Yeah if Indiana and Ole Miss can do it, state can also.

However, Indiana has been to four or five bowl games in the past 24 years. Their football history is pathetic and they have slightly more revenue. OM has slightly more revenue. Both schools are located closer to cities.

Keenum and whoever else missed on a few football hires back to 2018. True. However, I would make sure you had somebody lined up for the president job before running him out of town.

Seems like the chairman of the football playoff committee would understand what it takes to get a team into the CFP. Of the 16 programs who have a chance to make three 12 team playoff, how many have a 1st year Head Coach who had Never been a HC before this year?

Keenum is fine when we have a strong AD and keeps him out of athletics, because he kinda has that ‘always compare to Ole Miss’ thing going on. But he brings many other good things. Byrne, Loaferz (sorta), and Cohen kept that in check. Salmon is his guy, so here we are. It looks like me too many of those ‘but but Ole Miss’ bubble alumni got too involved. But he (Keenum) isn’t really the problem per se. We could do much much worse.

We just have too many alumni that don’t get it, in general.

Ok... then let's talk about this rationally.

Who was out there when Stricklin left that would have been a better hire and fit (that was willing to come here) for AD than Cohen?

Now... who was out there when Cohen left that would have been a better hire and fit (that was willing to come here) for AD than Selmon?

I get what you're saying about him meddling in coaching hires, but we're talking about an SEC University in Mississippi. There are a lot of hands meddling in the coaching search, so let's go a step further and ask:

Who was a better hire and fit (that was willing to come here) for head coach when Leach died?

Who was a better hire and fit (that was willing to come here) for head coach when Arnett was fired?



Then let's take that a step further and talk about solutions. What is the solution at this point? We've just hired a first time head coach after firing the last one 10 games into his first season. We have a first time AD. What do we do now and, if your solution is to replace either/both/all 3 of them (Lebby/Selmon/Keenum), who do you bring in to each position that would right the ship for Mississippi State?

Moorhead said it best earlier this summer in that podcast: "I was told just get to a bowl game and beat Ole Miss and I would be Ok."

Pretty evident there are still folks here besides Keenum that still hold that standard, which is a standard of mediocrity.

Don’t know about Cohen, but when we hired Salmon, we could have had Benko. Don’t know why we went with Salmon. I hear it’s for fund-raising ability, and that’s probably it, but I disagreed with that approach.
