All the new MSU fans are already tired of not winning...but the OG State fans are used to it. It’s been their life forever.

I think the current disconnect between State fans and Moorhead is over two things.

1. This year shouldn't be a rebuilding year (next year is a different story) given returning talent.

2. Lack of offensive adjustments looks Croomtastic and all suffered through that (ie auburn 3 state 2).

Had he come in next year I don't think there would be nearly the frustration from State fans.

All that being said, we were kinda tired of "big game Dan" (see @AU last year, @uga last year, Bama in almost every year etc). Where he doesn't give his teams a chance to win.

I was tired of his shite every year.

what "shite"? Leading State to their most successful period and building arguably their most complete team ever?

Kirby and Saban took over winning programs and went 6-6 their first years with terrible losses.

Just takes a year or two sometimes.


Those two are a little different. they were replacing coaches that were fired, not one that left for a better job and left behind a roster ready to win now.

If Dan turns out to be Saban 2.0, yes I guess. If he turns out to be just Dan Mullen , bad clock manager, run it through the middle til it works, f@ck no.
