I’m sure ppl are gonna have hater takes on the reported 7.5 mil for Taylor, but he’s obviously worth it.
Miss St hasn’t been nationally relevant since the Prescott era. Fans aren’t coming to see Jeff Lebby; they’re coming to see Kamario.
This is huge news for Miss St., and I’m glad they were able to get it done.
Ppl get kinda weird when these deals are announced mid season. But it’s progress. Programs are learning how to get ahead of the uncertainty that comes with the transfer portal. To an extent, of course.
Sources: Mississippi State star quarterback Kamario Taylor is finalizing a deal to return there in 2027. His return means one of the faces of college football next year will be in Starkville. Taylor led MSU to a 4-0 record to start this year before injury cut short his season.
As the transfer portal has leveled the playing field, the QB spot has become more important than ever.
Indiana had a Heisman winner last year. Miami is in the championship picture every year (yeah I know, ACC).
Meanwhile, Whittingham is in trouble at Michigan. Ohio St is in danger of missing the playoffs. LSU hasn’t played to its talent level.
It’s harder to win consistently off pure personnel. An elite QB can make up for deficiencies and be the difference between a good and great team.
@recruittheboot Facts, you definitely get the best matchups early for college. It’s so many games played in the NBA I’m just not gon prioritize it with so much meaningful football played right now.
I usually have a tough time getting into basketball this time of year.
But if you grew up a Jordan fan, the NBA on NBC music just just does something to ya
Gonzaga’s Mark Few had high, high praise for Will Wade’s LSU roster on Saturday: “Guys I’m telling you, he’s got a heckuva roster. Might not be as talented as Duke, but it’s probably the second-most talented roster maybe with who they have.”
@stickyfats Comparing what Franklin did at Penn St to what Kiffin did at Ole Miss is apples to oranges. Franklin never elevated Penn St to a place in CFB it hadn’t been.
Ole Miss had never won 11 games in a season. He did it twice. He won more there than any coach outside of John Vaught.
@LonnPhillips You mean the game or the team? That game was definitely a lost opportunity for LSU. You come out in a more aggressive defense from the start and the outcome is likely different,
