Been away a while
Honestly, I just couldn't write about this team as much as I was earlier in the season. It is too depressing. What can I say about them? They come out in and play better against Georgia. In typical Croom fashion they don't show up at all the next week against Kentucky. Croom will never be successful as a collegiate head coach. He doesn't do a single thing well - team preparation, gameplanning, motivation, game management, clock management, in-game adjustments, timeouts, none of that.
We still hear the same excuses. The program was in bad shape. No argument here, but 3 years is plenty of time to get a team together that can beat Kentucky and Tulane at home. Croom is learning. I'll say, according to the results, Croom hasn't learned a thing since he took over. He is building with character. We just had yet another player get arrested (the 10th I believe) and Croom kicked him off. We play in a tough conference. We lost to Tulane and Kentucky - next. Bottom line - there is no excuse for this. This is the worst football program ever. The crowd at the Kentucky game was the worst I have seen, even surpassing the lower crowds in 2003. The fans are tired of it. They are tired of losing. They are tired of Croom blowing winnable games. They are tired of excuses and bullcrap.
Someone has to step up and call Croom to the mat here. Someone has to tell Croom to get it done or get out. Some changes need to be made because ticket sales are going to drop significantly next year. Count me in the group that will not renew my tickets nor give to the BC with Croom and Templeton still firmly in place. I cannot justify giving so much money to them while trying to buy a house and get settled in my life to drive to Starkville and watch that crap. Put something on the field I can believe in and I will attend. As soon as MState gets serious about winning I will gladly give them my money. Until then I support only one coach - Rick Stansbury. He is the only one on campus that is doing his job and that is truly committed 100% to winning no matter what.
