Summary

Jeff Lebby had made it abundantly clear in recent weeks, Mississippi State had to upgrade along the offensive and defensive lines once the portal opened. Now over a week into that process, the Bulldogs haven't signed any players that look like they can make an impact next season. Is this just Lebby and staff missing out, or is there some method to this madness? Brian Hadad takes a look at what's going on and why it's understandable for Bulldog fans to be frustrated. Brian Hadad of SportsTalk Mississippi and Robbie Faulk of On3 give you the best insight into Mississippi State athletics. We cover the Bulldogs like no one else. This show is a production of SuperTalk Mississippi Media. Learn more at SuperTalk.FM
