re: Why wasn't MSU or OM in play for Marcus Dupree?

Payton was in the 70s. Not sure he was even highly recruited. JSU was probably it for him. Jerry Rice grew up 17 miles from Starkville, worked for his dad as a brick mason for a year before going to school and was in the same class as Marcus. He was not recruited by anyone that I am aware of. No way Marcus knew that he would hook up with Willie Totten at Valley and do crazy things under the "Gunslinger". Not sure what all the national guard stuff is about you mentioned.

Archie Cooley was the shite back in the day lol.
