Yes I am not the real Russell Walters--never claimed to be.
I do think it's the fans and yes going to Clemson WILL in fact fix that, for a short time. Because there's always a renewal of faith for a new coach.
I don't blame him one bit for leaving if he in fact does leave.
I've always thought that Southern Miss has the most delusional fan base in the country, but the more I read on here, the more I believe that my own friends and family are the most delusional of all- STATE fans.
That being said, HAIL STATE! I'm behind whoever we have on our bench, even though we will be taking a step down. NOBODY else can recruit to Starkville the talent level that RS did. I know we all love Starkville, but unless you went to school there you probably don't care much for it. We have recruited players from New York, Miami etc....you tell me how many kids want to leave those place to come live in the middle of nowhere...wait for it I'll tell you...ABSOLUTELY NONE.
Yet somehow Rick was able to do it time after time.
But yeah, we don't need him, we have the best program/ facilities in the country. We'll go hire a big name...
Hey maybe Lebron James would retire and be our coach, Larry Bird is available too...
