John Grisham is the only celebrity I can think of from Mississippi State, but he also went to Ole Miss and splits time between Oxford and Virginia.

Looking at the Wikipedia list, I see there really aren't any notable alumni who people would actually care to see as a picker. I mean, I guess you could get Papelbon, but he sucked on the Stars are Aligned.

True Katy Perry isn't an alum, but her manager is and she KILLED it. Going to be hard for whoever the rep is for the Grinders to live up to her performance on GameDay.

I guess they could go with Ronnie Parker, former CEO of Pizza Inn.

Greg Hardy is going to be a great guest picker when they come back on November 1st.

I prefer offseason threads to Game Day threads.

If I had to guess it will be Jerry Rice.

Eric Moulds makes the most sense .. Super Bowl Champion KJ Wright would be good but the Seahawks had their bye last weekend so no way it's him... If I had to venture a guess I'd say Fred Smoot or Faith Hill.

Papelbon, Grisham, Palmero, Buck, Big Black, Jerry Rice, Morgan Freeman. One of these state fans if I had to guess.

Also Grisham is a pretty outspoken fan of state, he did law at OM, don't think he really pulls for them.

Also, I have no idea if Morgan Freeman is a State fan.

It's breast cancer awareness month and Robin Roberts is a cancer survivor. She is from MS. Her nephew, Lawrence, played basketball at state. Sounds like a good choice to me.

It should be Girzzly fricking Adams. They need to go ahead and confirm that they get all their news from the SECr. The Katy Perry corndog thing was just the beginning.

In 2004 when Gameday was in Knoxville for the Auburn vs. Tennessee game they had Sir Charles as a guest picker...

Could ESPN pick an Auburn man/woman?????

I just wish they'd use people with some real connection to the school. No more publicity stunts because you know someone who's a fan or alum.
