I've seen that number repeated many different ways, and yesterday it was tweeted that Ole Miss' team performed well against LSU despite only having 59 scholarship players against LSU's 85.

Sanctions from bad grades and players flunking out/leaving the team did this.

It's counting injuries too.

"healthy" scholarship players.....you are aware that from time to time, athletes suffer injuries and aren't able to compete in their sport?

For reference, see Mississippi State University, Program Formerly Known as: Men's Basketball.

Recruiting, coaches not being disciplined in terms of school work. Kids failed out or got in trouble. Freeze is trying to fix that mess. Nutt wasn't one to look over school and outside activities. That screwed us.

The people in MS who play football also can't read good.

Nobody wants to play football for racist Ole Miss.

The people from Land Grant schools also often demonstrate that they neither read nor write, well.

Yeah but the problem here is that Ole Miss is taking injuries and such off of their total and not LSU's. I know LSU is minus one at least.....and he doesn't give a shite.

No, but seriously.

About a month ago, I was doing one of my usual jogging sessions but I apparently lost track of time and ended up in Oxford town and on the campus of TSUN right around the time Hugh Freeze had his Rebears out on their soggy practice field.

I decided to stop by for a quick laugh when one of the assistant coaches ran up and said, "Please, student, come play football for us, we don't have enough players." Ofcouse, given my 6'5" 250lb physique(which you must assume is true because I said so on an internet forum), I could easily be mistaken as an ideal football walk-on, but I said, "Never." with a grin on my face, "I'm a grinder through and through." A giant frown melted onto his face as he slowly lifted his hands toward my groin to which I responded, "Nope, that doesn't work for me either."

I left the practice field but before leaving the horrid campus of TSUN, I visited the Tri Delts, whom of which were impressed to meet a real man(not common in Oxford), and I taught each and every one of them how to shake my cowbell(Get it? It means my penis.)

Another successful morning of jogging.

Looks like the State fans have their own version of Rebman.

Pretty sure we have WAY less than 85 scholarship players available. Probably around 70.

It's a conspiracy between Houston Nutt, the liberal media, and Alabama's paid referees to keep the Rebears down.

The troll is strong with this one. Pretty decent writing skills for the rant I might add...
