This would be a strange way to celebrate a successful football season. Plus, I feel like you'd actually care once you saw Leach in the act of shitting or his product on the hood of your car.

So your argument is that Mike Leach is only succeeding due to Joe Moorhead's elite recruiting?


Let me change the narrative: is Mike Leach succeeding yet? He's one game over .500 and his best win in Starkville is a win over an 8-4 Texas A&M squad who bailed on their bowl game.

Yeah I think he's doing well so far (I don't really count 2020 against him).

Leach is not getting as fair a shake as he deserves simply because of the success OM is having under Kiffin. Any other period in State’s history he is fine. His success should not be viewed through a lens of comparison to OM although I realize that’s basically not possible.

This is their covid year. They have been on the roster since before ML got the job. They won't be there next year. What are you missing?


Why don't you list all those who you think will be gone.

You are correct. Arnett does that.

Unfortunately for miss state, this is their very experienced team. Next year they lose a ton of their defensive talent next year. Sucks the year they are good they play Georgia.



sucks for Georgia.

Since ML has gotten there and his lack of giving a frick about defense and NIL changes, this is no longer happening. If State can't lock down the 2-3 defensive players they live off of in state every year they are fricked.



Looking into what Drebin said.

These players have another year or more and was recruited by MSU:

- Banks 4 star CB
- Forbes 4 star CB
- Washington 4 star CB
- Davis 4 Star DE
- Russell 4 Star DE
- Clayton 4 Star DL
- Williams 4 star DL
- Pickering 4 star DL
- Crumedy 4 star DL


Any thing else?

MS is a DL hotbed...bases covered there. we have recruited lightyears better in the secondary for better part of a decade and im sure we can find some try-hards at LB once our talented ones move out in the distant future. we will be fine. the fact that we keep hitting in the secondary year after year is amazing.

In looking it up, I see you got a 4 star LB moving up and your 2 deep has been producing.

This looks like a Ole Miss fan worried.

Worried? 2-0 we are a top 10 team with a young offense and a defense with multiple years of eligibility left most places. I couldn't give a frick about state. I just think it is funny that you don't realize that the defense can't maintain what it is. Leach only has the record he has because of defensive talent. If that isn't maintained the low 20 points per game he scores in most SEC games isn't going to get it done.

UGA will likely win, but Kent St and Mizzou proved that UGA isn't an unstoppable force either.

There is a lot of parity in the SEC this year. I think it will still be a couple more weeks before we know who the top 3-6 teams are below UGA and Bama granted they don't get upset.

It is a legitimate debate. Leach has never played defense. Never had defensive talent. State recruits itself on defense with the booster network historically. Can he maintain the defense that he has had with a roster that is mostly his players.

It is relevant on is this state's year, because this might be the best defense he has for a while with an experienced QB.

Banks isn’t playing
Forbes is gone
Washington couldn’t see the field on a bad FSU secondary
Davis has been a bust
Russel has been a bust
Clayton is a young player that state fans insisted he is a sun belt DL but an SEC OL
Williams is going to be really good
Pickering is a bust
Crudest gone
