I wanted us to sign Wilson so bad man.....Brown too. He's a hometown guy and would have been an awesome star backer

Yep, three things are certain in life: death, taxes and if either Kentucky or the Mississippi schools are consistently winning at a high level, they're doing it "Sherrill-style" (NCAA, cough, cough).

Yeah. Years ago i read where someone asked Joe Paterno why he was still coaching. His response was something to the effect there has to be a counterweight to the Jackie Sherrills of college football. Funny that ol Jackie was a Bryant disciple.

It's funny how when Gus is asked about rankings he says, "they don't matter until the end", whereas Mullen thinks they're "pretty cool". I'm not sure if Ms. State can handle the pressure of being good and not let the big head get to them.

After 2010, I want nothing more than to smash these guys.....but given their current success I will take a 1 point win.

Yeah, Wilson would've been awesome in our offense... didn't have the grades though.
