side note, the Lending tree bowl, has to love all the attention the coaching saga is getting. maybe viewership for the game on Monday will spike. Time for the boys to put on a world class show for the nation.

I watched the Tulane/USM game yesterday. ESPN was definitely promoting the game. Louisiana vs Miami OH.

Drove to Spanish Fort yesterday. Getting excited about the game. GEAUX cajuns

There is a pretty good feeling around several sources that a deal is near completion with Billy Napier.

Hearing somewhere in the neighborhood of a $3.8 million, 4 year deal.

Not official, but barring any unforeseen changes, Napier is the 33rd head coach of Mississippi State.

If he really believed it he wouldn’t have put the hedge sentence in at the end.

Moo state fans are still banking on Napier according to a lot of the fodder on their message boards.

Either several of them have some connections and inside info or they really are just that crazy. Even after reading that he’s not interested and just signed a contract extension with Louisiana?

I believe they are just that crazy. It’s like they cannot fathom someone passing on their almighty SEC head coaching job. The place is a coaching Death Sentence.

If he is right, he can ring his cowbell that he was first.

If he is wrong, he can say there was some unforeseen changes.

Mullend cheated his butt off to get them close to 10 wins only way to win there ... where you think Hudspeth learned how to do it

Don't think Napier is about that action when you can win in the east without having to sell your soul

Mullen is the only one the has left for greener pastures in the past 30 years. And he left for Florida because he knew he could not win a championship at Miss St. That's fact.
