Well big deal, most media predictors almost always predict MSU to finish last in the West every year. At this point I can't decide if it is done out of disrespect to us or laziness.
It is just easy to write up our preseason overview each year if they can just pull up the past year's write up where we were picked last. Just change some of the lines like 2014 "#7 MSU, Dak is unproven as a Starter" to 2015 "#7 MSU, Dak can't do it all by himself", so now it'll be 2016 "#7 MSU, They ain't got Dak no more!"

Hugh has a nice article basically predicting State to finish last in the west this year....
One thing I've yet to understand. Ole Miss lost a ton of experience as we did after 2014 and got their QB back as we did after 2014. Their schedule is brutal. Yet, they are pegged to not miss a beat.
Yet ear as always, we were picked last in the west.
I don't think Kellenberger is intentionally biased toward OM. I do think that we've been blessed with several quality writers at the CL, and that he just doesn't measure up. The poor guy is obviously very concerned about what certain groups of people think about him. That's a pretty serious flaw for a journalist.
He seems to have no real interest in the ncaa investigation because in certain internet circles they think ncaa rules prohibiting payment of players are dumb. Never mind the hypocrisy angle of the televangelist head coach and AD lying through their teeth every chance they get to talk about it. The fact that two recruits have come out and said that Freeze told them before signing day that the investigation didn't involve his staff should be a huge story.
You first really noticed the problem with Kellenberger back during the Marshall Henderson era. Here you have the highest profile OM athlete since Eli. And during college you could make the argument he was higher profile nationally than Eli was before him. He was arrested and a small amount of cocaine was found in his car. A month went by, then Kellenberger was scooped by an out of state journalist. I would think many journalists would be embarrassed by that, but this one just wants so badly to be liked.

I don't know, but I'm guessing it's more about him wanting to keep his job, or at least that keeping his job is more of a concern to him.
