Your hypocrisy and and racism is showing. Be better than that man, seriously. Totally uncalled for

I really don't care - I'm just saying that he won't fit in with the Mississippi State fanbase. Sorry that it came across like that.

My point is that MSU fans are generally good folks that care about God and family first. They have a connection to MSU - we don't attract a lot of sidewalk fans. The sidewalk fans that live within Mississippi's borders are Alabama and LSU fans.

Ole Miss is the better school, its well known, and it produces more attorneys and bankers and such that dominate small town culture. Ole Miss folks look down on State folks and when you add the rest of the SEC and nation look down on Mississippi - MSU is the bottom of the barrel culturally.

State needs to hire a coach that can either:

play to the family aspect (someone like Joe Judge who he and his wife went to MSU and have four kids decked out in maroon and white)

embrace the culture and make us proud (Sherrill and especially Mullen did a great job at this, even poking back at Ole Miss a little)

or someone that doesn't give a crap what others think (Leach would be in this category).

Sark is a guy from California who played at BYU and in Canada and spent 15 years on the West Coast before rehabbing in Tuscaloosa. State is a stepping stone or a paycheck to him. He won't embrace MSU and he cares what others think of him. Its just not a good fit. Moorhead tried to fake it and it didn't work.
