Moorhead staff vs Mullen

So today we got another 4 star commit out of Tennessee. Being a border state that not a big deal. All programs can land a recruit next door because it's not a long drive for family and friends to come see them play.
What IS interesting to me are the number of recruits from afar who have at least made visits. Mullen wanted to, and did dominate the instate recruits. I like the fact that our new coaching staff is going after recruits not so close to the state. Even if we only land 2 of 40 its better than what we have been doing.
Everything I read from the guys who cover MSU is the staff's approach. Practice is fun and they don't sugarcoat anything to win someone over. The jury is still out on Moorhead but he no doubt is more selective on recruiting than just signing anyone willing to commit.

Have you thought about changing your user name?

A lot of State fans seemed set on the idea to only focus on Mississippi for some reason. I never understood that considering every other SEC Program doesn't focus on only their State.
State is taking the next step with Moorhead.

That’s good stuff it’ll be interesting to see if Moorhead can take the next step with State. Mullen didn’t seem to know how to take the next step there, fresh perspective and new ideas can be a really great thing.

This sounds like our insiders. It was five years ago, the coach's name was Bielema, and he was fat.

Are there any State fans that aren’t sold on Moorhead? Y’all seem to be all in. I know that they have a large number of returning upperclassmen. Just seems to be a lot of optimism after losing the best best coach y’all have ever had.

The highschool talent in Mississippi is unbelievable in 2019. Nathan Pickering is another 4* D-lineman that is expected to go to State.

Why does Moorehead look like he should be an assistant softball coach?

MSU beat Bama and Ohio State on a recruit..

If Moorhead stays at State 5+ years to build a program I believe he will win big

Mullen definitely had a different approach. He gets knocked for it all the time, but I was okay with it. The results were very good, by Ms State standards. His approach was based on good evaluations and finding lower rated guys he felt confident he could develop. He also wanted guys who understood they would be asked to redshirt and that they would have to work their way up the depth chart. That won't work at Florida. I doubt he takes the same approach there. He did what he thought would work at State, and he appears to have been right.
Mooreheads staff has a different approach. It looks good on paper. Will it pan out? We'll see. But I like his approach too.

No school should focus solely on instate talent. I know Mississippi has a good JUCO farm system and good instate talent but State should always be looking to pull kids from elsewhere.
Pruitt isn't high on TN's 2019 HS class for some reason. I think it's probably because he has better contacts and a head start with recruits elsewhere. Supposedly, he is high on the 2020 class. Regardless, the 2019 class would be a good one for State to take advantage of. TN is loaded with 4*s that for reasons I can't explain our head coach isn't that into and OM which would normally steal some of those recruits is down.

Let's be honest shall we....MSU has peaked. Mullen took the bulldogs to full maximum heights . They can't won't do better than what he did. They will never win the SEC. THAT WAS their full potential. Dak was a once in 100 year qb for state.
