who said we were? but like you said Ole Miss is a little worse and a much worse program. There is no reason for a high school coach to be recruiting like he is.

Thanks
And the Under Armour? Or do they all practice together for both games?

You try to act like Oxford is the crazy racist place when you've never been there. I've been all over both states. Have my finger on the pulse of both programs. So you can't bullshite me on Oxford being wildly racist when I know it to not be true.

I never said it was racist, (after all how can a whole town be racist?) but you can't explain how a high school coach can magically change something that Ole Miss fans have been blaming for sucking themselves for 40 years. Ole Miss fans have no respect for our program but we seem to take the BS from them when we don't from Auburn/LSU whatever.

They have nothing to actually improve their program. Their facilities are second rate. They did nothing to earn what they are doing right now. But no one seems to care because they are Ole Miss. Kids don't just start choosing Hugh Freeze over Nick Saban without a lot of shady shite going on.

BTW I was talking about Kentucky originally. If these programs are so easy to keep instate kids at (instate kids that other teams want) then why Mark Stoops and Hugh Freeze? Why not the much better coaches who tried and failed at both stops?

They can offer immediate playing time, we can't. Do you realize that we have more 5*s on the bench than they have on their team? Not all kids want to win championships, some may be fulfilled by being different and starting something from the ground up and you can't blame them. We have a great program, but its not for everyone. We will be okay, we will get our guys and contend every year.

Like who?

I openly admit I think Freeze and staff are cheating a bit. In fact, with Conner, I know they did. Likely Tunsil as well.


But Stoops isn't killing it in the trail. They're keeping one 5 star home. Andre Smith stayed home. Brodie stayed home. Did we cheat?

with Brodie? possibly but likely after his 2nd high school knee injury no one else wanted him. In fact other than being 70 pounds bigger and from Oklahoma he and Cornwell are very similar (five stars that drop after a knee injury, best thing going for them is a huge arm).

And granted Andre Smith signed with Alabama after a 10 win season. Even when have sucked we can still say "we are Alabama". Ole Miss hasn't been good in these kids lives, save one year with Eli now a decade ago (and they didn't have a bump in recruiting then). Hell Ole Miss hasn't been good in these kids parents lives. Otherwise they have a coach who was coaching high school and who happens to spotting a .500 record two years in the job.

Image how good Brodie would have been had he played for Saban.

Saban wouldn't have mattered but certainly Shula, McElwain, and Nuss are all good QB coaches.

Lets not through stones because I know stories that players have told me about their recruitment. Lets just say me and Robbie Green were really close.
