Cotton was a highly rated (4 star) qb recruit, who may or may not have ever turned out to be any good. Regardless, I'm sure that when recruiting a wr, you use cotton's rating as a selling point to a wr. Now, the rebs are in almost as bad a shape at QB as we were under crooms. I have to think that this is a good opportunity to try and make up ground with Brassell and Singleton. Of course, I won't ever underestimate the rebel's ability to pull a QB out of their asses. The thing about them is that when they are in need of something, they have a knack for going and getting it.

Why would you have to make up ground on these 2 guys when one or both of them are supposedly a secret commit according to some of your sheep. I am not saying that we are for sure getting both but I can for 100% accuracy say that Brassell will not be going to State. Take it to the bank. Flame away but for once I actually know a recruit and the situation. I love reading State's boards with all the false hope of Brassell signing. Going to be a lot of long faces come signing day when it comes to Brassell.

I'd love to hear the flip side of the argument especially in light of the offense you run, but it seems to me you're in pretty bad shape at QB too. Your starter was suspended last year for drug related issues and threw, what, 40 passes all year? Your highly recruited backup, a year into the system, can't overtake, Relf which is not a good sign. I'm not sure you're in a position to go poaching other schools' WR recruits.

seen, 99% of State fans have written both off to the rebels from the beginning, so I don't know what you are talking about. Let me ask the question in a way that you might understand. Who the 17 would want to be a wr at mississippi at this point? Right now, they have no worldbeaters for the present or the future. Now take your smug *** back to nafoom and stay out of my threads.

You are exactly right we have no world beaters right now but I will give you a couple of key points that !%@% has that State doesn't. Perception is all that really matters when it comes to recruiting. When you take hatred out of the equation and just look at the facts you will see that !%@% has a distinct advantage with a lot of these kids. <div>1. Patrick Willis - All Pro, Rookie of the Year, Pro Bowler, </div><div>2. Eli Manning- #1 Pick, Super Bowl MVP, etc.., </div><div>3. Michael Oher- 1st Rd draft choice, Blind Side, NFL rookie of the year runner up</div><div>4. Dexter McCluster 2nd Rd Pick, 1st SEC player to rush for a 1000 yds/500 yds rec, arguably the most explosive player in College Football </div><div>5. Peria Jerry1st Rd Pick</div><div>6. Mike Wallace- 3 Rd Pick, Led all Rookies in Rec yds</div><div>7. Shay Hodge- Only 1000 yd Receiver in SEC last yr</div><div>7. Back to Back 9 win seasons</div><div>8. Back to Back Cotton Bowl Wins</div><div>
</div><div>I know that you hate !%@% and I 17 hate State but no matter how you slice what does State have to offer other than 41-27 and hope that yall are on the rise. Name one player in the NFL that played at State that can claim just one of these accolades. As much as you don't want to admit we, !%@%, have some legitimate selling points. I am not claiming that we will beat out the big boys, LSU, Bama, Florida, etc.. Now to answer your question about who would want to be a WR at !%@% now? Moncrief, Brassell, and Singleton are the obvious answers. History repeats itself and if you look at !%@% passing and receiving records compared to State's it is not even close.</div>

Agree, both teams have QB questions BUT compare the two ... Relf was 22 of 41, 3 Int, 5 TDs (20% of his passes were TDs) and an effeciency rating of 137 (which is the third best ratingof returning Qbs in the SEC) plus he was the second leading rusher with500 yard rushing (6.6 yards /rush) and FWIW 131 yards against %%$#.

Stanleywas 11 of 23,1 Int,1 TD, rating of 113 plus rushing for a total of -12 yards for -2.4 yards a game.

You're comparing QB ratings off 41 attempts and 23 attempts? If that's the sales pitch you would use with a recruit, I doubt it would get you too far. Neither team's QB has shown much of anything yet, so there is no comparison to be made, other than the fact that your QB is a running threat and ours isn't.

Does that mean we'll be punching our ticket to Atlanta again soon?

LOLZ!11!!!11!ROTFLMAO!11!!!111!1BURN1!!!!!!1111!!!
I would say YES. Considering that this board has ranked each of your units in the top 5-6 in basically every category and LB and D-line in the top 3. I would say that yall have a very good chance at going this year. With all of that being said, the argument is why would a WR pick Ole Miss over State. I am hearing nothing but crickets. Surely someone can come up with a intelligent rebuttal to TS*N selling points vs State. Also some more food for thought, Jevan Snead as ****** as he was last year would have destroyed State's all time passing records.

our coach and his history developing QB's and playmakers. We have nothing to brag about during the Croom era because his offense was a joke. Mullen, on the other hand, has done it with Josh Harris at Bowling Green, Alex Smith at Utah, and Leak/Tebow at UF. He was able to maximum Percy Harvin'stalents. Harvinwas just named the NFL rookie of the year.Mullen knows how to get the ball to playmakers and use all of his weapons. Nutt helped turn a pre-season 1st rounder into an undrafted free agent. His offense at Arkansas led to the transfer of their best QB/WR combo he was able to sign. So far at Ole Miss, he has already lost Pat Patterson and 4 other highly rated prospects from the '09 class. The OM fans I know gave a lot of credit to your offensive coordinator who isNow Gone.

You have nothing on the horizon at QB. Tyler Russell was the Player of the Year in MS and is going into his redshirt freshman year so we can't pass judgement on him yet.
