It doesn't help that Mississippi is having an incredible run.

Since 2022:

National Championship in Baseball
Sweet 16 in Men's Basketball
2 Sweet 16s in Women's Basketball
Women's College World Series
3 10-win football seasons and now a College Football Playoff appearance

We are getting our *** handed to us and it's time for some changes.

Their entire administration from Keith Carter all the way down to Walker Jones is just light years ahead of us.

It doesn’t help, no.

But we are 2-19 in the last 3 years against SEC teams not named Ole Miss. Had we won all 3 egg bowls we’d still have only gone 6-6, 3-9, 6-6.

Our issues are so much bigger than just OM being good.

I totally agree. They are much bigger than most fans realize, but Ole Miss is taking advantage of us stepping on our dicks in everything - athletics, academics, enrollment, research - Everything at State is on the level of our football team.

There are individuals running departments at MSU that could not handle the lunch rush at Little Dooey.

Not having principles has paid off for them.
It has. Ultimately, it will blow up in their faces like it would anywhere else. But, they’ll have won some games and won’t care.

It’s hilarious how savagely we have beaten their wife beating basketball coach, though.

Facts. They have the right people in the right places and they’re all pulling in the same direction with max intensity. It’s rare but they have it.

Since 2023 we have been the living embodiment of the Benny Hill Yakety Sax song

Two SEC wins in three years and the wins were against 4-8 Arkansas and 2-10 Arkansas.

It has been outrageously bad and I do not feel a huge sense of urgency to get it right at this point. Not from our leaders at least.

If Lebby falls flat in year 3 and Selmon makes another poor football hire, then you criticize him. He fired an awful decision (Arnett) and his first hire just completed year 2. Not sure how anyone can say he’s incompetent at this point. Interlocking is back, BOC hired for baseball, our venues are finally being utilized for concerts. He is moving things ahead.

Bo probably should not blame his wife for being 50 pounds overweight. That’s what I took away from his analogy.
Love the fact he uses his platform to speak out, can’t ***** or fault him, but that was Four Roses talking with a Spring Street Cigar. With a bone-in NY Strip somewhere in the background. But … he at least speaks up … Credit Due.

It's not just Lebby. Selmon has no idea what he is doing. He made the baseball hire he was told to and changed to the interlocking, but is clueless.

You have info on Selmon being told who to hire in baseball? Do tell your source. I’m sure it took some serious digging by someone to figure out that he’s a good coach and should be considered.****no way our AD could tell what the entire baseball world could clearly see…

You think we feel bad as a fan base. Imagine how bad Arkansas fans must feel being the team that bookends our recent SEC wins!

Who will attend those concerts? Probably none of the big football donors. Hosting concerts will make the younguns happy I guess. College kids may love going to hip hop and gangster pop shows but just like they don’t tip at restaurants, they also don’t pay the bills for football! I sure hope every penny from every concert ticket sold goes directly to Football NIL!

So our administration isn't clueless and our HC really should be a P5 or G5 head coach??? Damn. It's worse than I thought.

The root cause of our issues stems from November 2017. He had a chance to put our stamp on the state for good but we fumbled that because Cohen interviewed one candidate since he was the smartest guy in the room. In 2017, we could've hired Kiffen, Heupel, and allegedly Kyle Whittingham had interest. Flash forward 2 years later, they hire Kiffen and we reach for Leach. They hired the guy who is a better coach AND fits their school.

Exactly. Everything we do is half-arsed, or worse. Ability means nothing. It's all "Am I friends with this guy", or "Do I like his personality?" Give me a few jerks who know what they are doing.

Had we hired Kiffen and still not sure we could have or would have but, 3 years ago when Auburn needed a new HC and he was flirting with that job then, he would have bolted from State and be at Auburn right now and probably having the Iron Bowl tonight decide the other team not named UGA to play in the SEC championship.

Very true but man 2018 would have been fun. Also he probably would have gone to LSU in 2021
