Leach would be a great choice. Don't understand your 'Jackie and Billy' comment and not sure to what you're referring. Do yourself a favor, Kingfish...getchu a gallon of popcorn, take a seat, and watch MSU improve right away.

and with Ellis Johnson still available!

Oh the irony. State fans pile on the Rebels for hiring Kiffin and then they go out and bring this cat (I mean dog) in. Too damn funny

Jackie Sherrill and Billy Brewer

...I thought this post was about something else

To all you OM fans that think you're better than everybody else for some unknown reason(s), this is as big of a hire as Lane Kiffin was. So you can take all that little brother/big brother talk and cram it in a dark room in the Lyceum. And no, I'm not a State fan.

Leg humpers breathing a sigh of relief that they were not turned down yet again.

Any truth to the rumor that the mascot will be changed to a pirate?

Egg Bowl 2021 Final Score: 74-71.

Where? Or its is closed.

12-59. . .Jackie Sherrill and Billy Brewer and the war of words they had.

This is going to be fun. I understand SEC Media Days is a sell out!

With Brandon High School QB Will Rogers headed to State in the Fall, showing much of the same style and coaching of former Brandon to Washington standout Gardner Minshew (Now of the Jacksonville QB), it seems that Leach may be able to recreate the incredible 2018 Washington Season.
Look to State to throw-throw-throw...

How is the graduation rate? How are graduates doing finding good jobs and paying back the outrageous tuition costs. Those are really the things people should care about. WGAF about every move a football team makes?

Don't know how long 12:59 has been around these parts (or how old), but it is an absolute shame that the Jackie and Billy reference is lost on him.

I’ve always wanted Leach at Ole Miss. Very good hire as far as getting the fan base back on board and having some fun.

Mike Leach was the coach of Washington State.

Minshew went to Washington State.

Not Washington.

2:27,

I mean, they can throw, throw, throw...

But who’s gonna catch, catch, catch.

State hasn’t put a wide receiver in the nfl in decades, plural.

Chew on that, Webels! The Dawgs are heading to the College Football Playoff within 2 years! Ring those Cowbells baby!

3:02 is smoking some GOOD stuff! And I'm a State fan.

Ole Miss pushed all their chips to the middle of the table. Mississippi State just called. We got ourselves a poker game. It ought to be fun.

Let me try that without autocorrupt.

Where? Poets is closed.

All I hear from Ole Miss fans is this little brother/rent free in their(MS State’s fans) heads. Someone in a group text scene shotted the first few pages of the OM message boards(nafoom, etc) and 90% are about MS State, the coaching search, and the Leach hire. Talk about living rent free! Haha. These people are delusional. I would love to know what kiffin has actually accomplished other than being ran off from everywhere but FAU? I’ll hang up and wait now.

SEC Media Day will be like the bar scene in Star Wars!

Hey, 2:29, I think those kids are on your lawn again.

Oh, that kind of cougar.

Mike Leach’s record against the top 25 is SHOCKINGLY bad. But that shouldn't deter msu fans because Dan Mullens only beat 1 Top 10 team the whole time he was in starksville.

Leach is also 7-8 in bowl games and he was a terrible 1-7 against his rival, U. of Washington, while in Pullman.

This could be an average to good hire for State or a very bad hire...only time will tell.

I like to do my cougar hunting at either Whole Foods, or the Fresh Market in Ridgeland.

To be exact...as of the 2015 football season, Leach was 13 wins versus 41 losses all-time against top 25 football teams his teams played...AARRRGGGG!!!

I love Leech’s interviews and interaction with the media... the guy is a riot!!!! :)

Only time will tell how the Leg Lifters compare to the Leg Humpers after a season or two...

Where can I buy a puffy shirt for next football season?

The Jealousy of the TSUN fan base is hillarious.

@5:52 - Dan Mullen had a #1 rated team in Starkville; when was the last time the old miserables were number 1? Maybe before you were born?

Neither UM or MSU has the funds to compete in the SEC. Given the strain they put on the state they both should probably be in CUSA or some conference.

Ole miss fans are salty today! All I hear is how MSU stole their thunder, leach isn’t good, etc, etc, etc. Can anyone tell me what Lame Kiffin has done besides get ran off every decent team he coached at. Yes, he’s done well at FAU, whoever the hell they are. Joey Freshwater hasn’t proven anything yet. Nothing. Nada.

I just keep thinking about the new coach at Arkansas. He's in a division where the other six coaches, SIX, are some of the most well known coaches in America. I'm sure he is happy to get a head job, but you have to wonder if it will be intimidating to go to SEC meeting and see the other six all signing autographs and no one knows his name.

@7:34 And how did that year work out for us?

10:32 - It's the thought that counts. We got to hold the trophy for fifteen minutes. lol.

@10:32 - better than any of your past 30 years, mo.

7:34 that team was unfortunately ranked far above it's actual ability - finishing the season not so well and falling far down in the rankings. Not sure that being severely overrated during the season really warrants puffing your chest out.

There was a time when the search for a head coach was a search for the total package. In this day and time of "entertain me" and "win at all cost", wins have become the only relevant factor. He'll win games, I'm confident of that. And he will be entertaining; we'd better learn to laugh ourselves. But I also think there is a good possibility he will at some point become an embarrassment for the university and the state. So much for the search for the total package. And as for John Cohen, well, this had better work. I've got a feeling his job depends on it.

7:34 that ranking was an absolute joke and anyone not totally addicted to the Maroon/White Kool-Aid knew that.

Hey 10:18, I guess all the coaches and sportswriters across the US that voted MSU the consensus number one for four consecutive weeks are all part of a kool-aid drinking conspiracy.

10:18 alone stands for truth!

A 40 gun pirate ship just pulled up alongside the Redneck Party Barge, "CSS Ole Piss."

Ruh roh.

Ole Miss and MSU cat fights are a tallest midget contest.

I don't understand why Ole Miss fans are hating on this. I've wanted Mike Leach at Ole Miss for years. I love the Kiffin hire and I love the Leach hire for State. The Egg Bowl is going to be a blast for at least the next few years, and I'm just glad it's going to be fun again.

Hey 7:24pm...

Just to remind you (I'm sure Zak P. hasn't forgotten) that THAT #1 msu team you are bragging about (in 2014) was the best year msu had ever seen.

Your best QB Zak Pressbot that year, in the last game of his senior year, was owned by the Ole Miss Rebels to the tune of 31 to 17 in Oxford, MS.

If I'm not mistaken, msu finished with minus yards rushing that particular night.

Yes, that WAS a great year as you have reminded all Ole Miss fans of and that Egg Bowl was a wonderful night as msu was EXPOSED for all of college football to see...thanks for the memories of 2014!

@5:42, "Oh, that kind of cougar". Me too, I was expecting a group of MILF type pictures. Oh well, I took the bait.

Sitting on pins and needles over here waiting on someone to tell me why Lane Kiffin is such a great hire and where besides a no name FAU where he was successful and not just ran off. Also DJ Durkin...please for the players, take the locks off the equipment rooms.

You're real cute, 12:33, purposefully misspelling Prescott's first and last names while not using caps to spell MSU. But, hell, after all, you're a tsun possum-EaTeR. We expect it of you.

Coach without top recruits equals loser. Kiffin and Leach will fail.

No way Leach could successfully recruit except outside a 400 mile radius wherever he was head coach. Washington State and Texas Tech were on the level of Southern Miss as far as recruits chomping at the bit to sign on. but, Leach has been a winner at each stop. Kiffin not so much.

One thing for sure is going to be discipline. Players will NOT think they're in the locker room of either Croom or Moorhead. And noboby gonna raise his hand and ask, "Coach, where you really comin' from?"

After Baylor game...

What's obvious is that TSUN fans, many posting on here, are insanely jealous that MSU hired a coach while TSUN hired a skirt-chasin' cock-hound. Just be sure there's no tracker on Kiffin's company phone. Gosh-a-mighty.
