What's up with this guy?

I understand he needs to pump up Ole Miss and Miss State given his audience...but his homerism is getting out of hand. Three weeks ago, he was saying AK might need to be out at Ole Miss...now he is talking about OM being a top 2 or 3 team in the SEC in basketball.

He talks constantly about the MAGICAL seasons that Miss State and Ole Miss just had in football (with 3 and 4 losses respectively...lol) and about the direction of the programs. He was actually on the show a few days ago bragging about Ole Miss and Miss State being in the top 5 of recruiting football for 2016....LMAO....went on and on about it...as if it matters right now with some teams only having 1 or 2 players committed. One would assume he would have the intelligence to see that Alabama is out of the top 30 right now, so it's a LITTLE early to draw any conclusions about 2016...lol

Finally, there is a large LSU fanbase in the area. But ole' boy HATES LSU...will not include them in anything positive....when he talks about Ole Miss and State moving up the SEC ladder in recruiting...he won't mention LSU as one of the top recruiting teams....despite them being about an average 6th nationally over the last 4 or 5 years.......and recently he brought on Mike Detillier and tried to lead Mike into agreeing with him that LSU just signed a poor recruiting class because of not many DT's and no LB's......Mike put the troll in his place though.....

In summary, what's the story on this hack? I know he graduated from MSU....but honestly, I think he is more of an Ole Miss fan...or he comes across that way. Did he play sports? Did LSU whip his arse every year? For whatever reason, he hates him some LSU (I guess for good reason, Miles is 16-4 against Mississippi Schools)...but to be a good radio host, one would think you would want to be objective, especially if said fanbase has a lot of alumni in the area....just my two cents. I know this is the Rant and not likely to get serious replys...but just curious about this host. He clearly has an LSU agenda....and just will not mention them anything positive. Maybe it's the reverse direction of TSUN....maybe he is TSDS....lol

I know it's hard to comprehend, but it is a sports talk show in MISSISSIPPI! What do you think he is going to talk about? 80-90 percent of his listeners are Ole Miss and State fans. Of course, he is going to talk those schools up. If you want LSU sports move to Louisiana or listen to a Louisiana station. All that being said, I don't care for Bo Bounds at all.

I'm an LSU transplant in Jackson for a few years. I accept his State and Ole Miss love for what it's worth. He has some quality weekly guests who I enjoy listening to. Overall, I like the show...however, I want to punch my radio out when he does his fake, retarded laugh at the dumbest stuff

This is barely English.

"Lol....lol....lol....lol"

Hate it when people do that. You aren't laughing.

He tries to be the Paul Finebaum of Mississippi. He trolls each fanbase all of the time just to get ratings. Finebaum actually stands by his statements every now and then. Bo Bounds flip flops all the damn time so he can piss off one fanbase or the other for ratings.

My brother lives on Brandon and listens to Bo all the time. In my experience listening to him and from what my brother tells me, he gives the Tigers their due. Even said that some of the ole miss/state fans up there don't really like Bo because he gives the Tigers so much credit.

Like I said, he's been pretty good the times Im listened

Bo Bounds is a talk show host in Mississippi. Why would he talk up a program in another state? Everyone outside of Lsu fans can see that y'all are trending downwards, hence his subtle jabs at Lsu the last couple of years.

You openly disrespect the MS schools, but expect everyone else to show respect to LSU? How does that work?

From your glaring insecurities, it sounds like your love language is 'words of affirmation'.

You're talking about the guy that seriously interviewed Coach 34 about his theories on how Ole Miss cheats and Mississippi State should emulate our strategy.

It's a radio show set up for entertainment, not journalistic integrity.

Bo is awful. He uses Elite Dawgs as a legitimate source. All you need to know.

Also, the LSU fan base in Jackson is minimal. You're thinking of the coasties.

I used to live there and I remember that guy. I always enjoyed his show for the humor of how much he hated LSU.

Finebaum isn't any better than Bounds when it comes to talking sports. However, Bounds is way way more informed about things concerning MSU and OM, naturally. I don't like all the bs he spews about off topic matter. That goes on and on and it's stupid. With that said, Bounds knows how to stir people up, and that's an essential part of the job. Finebaum may be a nice guy, but he's generally lost when talking about MSU and sometimes OM, among others.

Bo Bounds is a self absorbed prick. His show sucks and he gives the worst interviews ever. He thinks he is big time. Total douchebag.
