Brett McMurphy reporting that Napier turned down Moo State

[CharlieK]

This post makes no sense on so many levels. Why on earth would two parties in this type of negotiation go through a third party whose means of communicating with the two sides is a fan forum... DUH!!!! Like the St AD and Napier's agent don't have phones and can't talk directly to each other??????

Secondly, a $1,000,000 housing allowance? In Starkville? The two most expensive homes in Starkville according to Zwillow rent for $2200/month or less. By that figuring, Napier would have rent free housing for 40 yeaars.

THAT WHAT MAKES IT GREAT! He's been slowly bringing up the heat, and now it's boiling and they didn't even notice! He slowly ramped up the absurdity, at just the right rate, till he could post that masterpiece above and still probably have some of them buy it. Read the whole thread that that comes from on their board. He even got a moderator to certify he was a legit poster. This is evil genius level trolling.

Is the new buyout in effect? Has the new contract been signed?

From what I've heard it has been, just needed to by approved by the board. If I'm Magard, I'm calling a mandatory session to get that approved. Just kidding, i doubt he can do that but I'm guessing by this point it has been approved.

I agree. If there is a Hall of Fame for trolling, this guy should be a unanimous inductee.

But, But, But Elitedawg Enforcer vouches for him.

I am not a troll.

Boy should run for office.

I'm just curious if he is one of us or a rebel/bear/shark...a distant relative of man/bear/pig.

What no one is talking about is Napier's new buyout. I would imagine it is now somewhere in the 3 to 4 million dollar range. If they are only willing to spend 4 million on a 4 year deal, are they really willing to spend the money on Napier's buyout. I am assuming the also had to buyout Moorehead. Does Mississippi state really have that kind of funds currently?

Supposedly, according to several posters, they have a very large $100m + "rainy day" fund they could tap into for that very purpose.

Now he is saying that Napier and the AD have a 'face to face' meeting today.

This has been too much fun..

Those dudes are so insane. They were almost begging for any sliver of hope that they are a destination place. Which opens themselves up... they deserve to be haunted by the ghost of MATT

I just don't know why he would make this stuff up. It sounds to me like there is some truth to what is being said.

Nah. We just follow flights. We don't go into stalkerish mode of doing wife watch at the local grocery store.

Damn I must be the only one watching what color socks Mrs Nape is wearing. So far so good. She still got Vermilion Red on. But y'all gonna thank me when I break the news. Better than flightgate from a few years ago.

I like that he said Lender Tree Bowl, I really think that we went to the Lending Tree Bowl, but he hasn't gotten anything else right yet

I certainly hope that "Bert" comes here for the standing ovation he very richly deserves once MSU finally hires someone else.
