Green has already won two state championships at two different schools. He would be a good one to get.

I'll share these not to get in a debate... I'll admit I'll bow out because I don't believe there would be any minds changed. But I'll share a few verses that I think could be supportive of Arminian theology. And as I mentioned earlier, I think there are many that are supportive of Reformed theology as well. “[God] desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth” (1 Tim. 2:4) “The Lord is not slow about His promise, as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing for any to perish but for all to come to repentance” (2 Pet. 3:9) “I called and you refused, I stretched out my hand and no one paid attention.” (Prov. 1:24) “I will destine you for the sword, and all of you will bow down to the slaughter. Because I called, but you did not answer; I spoke, but you did not hear. And you did evil in My sight and chose that in which I did not delight.” (Isa. 65:12) “My people did not listen to My voice, and Israel did not obey Me. 12 So I gave them over to the stubbornness of their heart, to walk in their own devices. 13 Oh that My people would listen to Me, that Israel would walk in My ways! 14 I would quickly subdue their enemies and turn My hand against their adversaries.” (Ps. 81:11-14) "4 For it is impossible to bring back to repentance those who were once enlightened—those who have experienced the good things of heaven and shared in the Holy Spirit, 5 who have tasted the goodness of the word of God and the power of the age to come— 6 and who then turn away from God. It is impossible to bring such people back to repentance; by rejecting the Son of God, they themselves are nailing him to the cross once again and holding him up to public shame." (Hebrews 6:4-6) "I am coming soon.[d] Hold on to what you have, so that no one will take away your crown." (Rev 3:11) "17 You already know these things, dear friends. So be on guard; then you will not be carried away by the errors of these wicked people and lose your own secure footing. 18 Rather, you must grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ." 2 Peter 3:17

^^^ Probably got a Lane Kiffin bobble head collectible.

Jeffries today and Brooks last week. Supposedly there is a transfer PG coming from somewhere, too. But the "somewhere" hasn't been for sure yet. Howland is looking at a couple. I

Was that just early on? I'd changed the setting a little after we launched over here and I think it let you real folks in.

Stubhub had them at $200. That's pretty crazy to think about.

@rebmus....? Care to share?

From your playing years back in the day.... who was the best football player you ever faced? What made him stick out in your mind? Did he go on to play at the next level?

That's what many MSU fans have said about the 2008 Egg Bowl as well.

I don't know if anyone read the article in The Athletic last November, but there are quite a few interesting bits of info. It attests that two firings (Luke/Moorhead) following the Elijah Moore penalty, OM's XP miss, and all that followed afterward ultimately impacted nearly 300 coaching careers. It's a long but good article if you have a sub to The Athletic. BUT.... What if Elijah Moore didn't get a penalty, OM scores the XP and has the momentum going into OT and wins that game? There were MANY rumblings already in Starkville that Moorhead was going to be replaced win or lose. But the dramatic fashion of the win saved his job (for a few weeks ). So with a loss he's gone for sure. But if he was let go right then, Matt Luke likely stays in Oxford with the win, right? So no Kiffin. No high powered offense in 2020. Does it mean no Corrall? RichRod is still running the offense. So what is Elijah Moore's projected draft spot? And in Starkville... do they hire Billy Napier (like so many assumed) or... as @Schrute has speculated, is Lane Kiffin coaching a different SEC team in Mississippi? How would things be looking right now for both teams after a 2020 of Luke/Rodriguez in Oxford and Kiffin/Leby in Starkville? Is Shrader still at QB? Did Keytaon Thompson stick around? It's always so wild to think about the "what if's" of college football.

I think one can find verses to support both positions, to be honest. But either way, the truth of the Gospel is still the same regardless.

They return both QB's (they rotated. One will be a Sr, one a Jr) and top two RB's. They lose their top three producing WR's, so they'll be young there. Defense should be strong again.

^^^ Thinks driving a Corvette is still cool in the 2020s! **

You know what would make this thread better? Pictures of these stadiums!

It's really simple. Just post something about the person above you. Your comments can be friendly , sarcastic , funny , simple , cold and etc. Can't comment on yourself. And you don't have to know the person above you. But don't let it get too off the rails.

After two early season losses they ran the table until North Half against Oxford. It was a back and forth game with Clinton leading a few times. Oxford scores with about 3 minutes to go to take the least 31-27 and that's your final. I'm not sure what Clinton has returning, but last year's team was really competitive.

Sure it's not fair to compare a 2A stadium with the 6A schools and the resources they have. So let's think about it from the best in each class. But from a visiting team/fan perspective, whose stadium have you gone to watch your team play in and you came away impressed: bleachers, field, bathrooms, concession stand, etc.

Mississippi always produces a handful of good running backs. But Branson Robinson out of Germantown has to be the top choice, right? He's blowing up on the recruiting sites with offers from Bama, Clemson, and Georgia already. I don't think he will stay in state, but it would be a huge get for any of the instate schools. Junior Highlights on HUDL are impressive. So who would you put at the #2 back in the state behind him? (Or do you think anyone is as good as him already?)

I'll go first.

I grew up in a Methodist church and went to methodist churches most of my life. They were Wesleyan (Arminian) of course. There was a time in college when I was at USM that one semester. I went to the BSU with my roommate once and met some good people and kept going. Once while playing pingpong I mentioned MYF. A girl asked, "What's MYF?" I told her it stood for Methodist Youth Fellowship, but it was basically the youth group. She asked me what I was doing at a methodist church. I told her I grew up Methodist and that's where I go when I'm back home (I usually went to FBC Hattiesburg that semester). Her response kinda surprised me. She said, "You can't be Methodist. You seem so Baptist!" I didn't know that that meant. I never tried to "seem" anything. But it made me realize how wrapped up in denominations some people get. I know people who are ardent Baptists and Methodists and _____________. And they'd probably claim that denomination before saying they follow Jesus or that they are a Christian. I think that's backwards. Sure, I believe it's fine to be proud of your denomination... but that's secondary to following Jesus, right? For the last 8 years I've been going to a church that is kinda a mix of a Baptist church and a Presbyterian church. Let's call it 'reformed Baptist". Which has some differences from my Methodist upbringing for sure. But I don't think the "differences" are "salvation critical" issues.

To be honest, I'm not sure. Headed to my dad's house and we'll see what my step-mom puts together. It is usually chicken and dressing.

Take a look at this! Anyone remember these days? I snagged it from the Wayback Machine:
