Welcome to the Boneyard with Steve Robertson. As always, I am your good friend and host, Steve Robertson,

here on the Maroon Friday edition of the yard. Hope it's a payday for you. It is Friday, and it's

Maroon Friday, which means that we get to rep the brand. We get to go out and show the world that we are Mississippi State

Bulldogs and we are proud to be affiliated with such a fine athletics program. As a matter of fact,

Mississippi State the finest athletic programs in the entire state of Mississippi, bar none.

I'm glad you could join us today.

Hope it you're able to celebrate Maroon Friday as you wish.

We've got a lot to feel good about right now.

A lot to feel good about it.

Been a good week.

Good week for Mississippi State so far.

National signing day is coming and gone.

And we get through that, as we discussed on the Wednesday night show, we get through

that unscathed.

We get through that with everything going according to plan.

We haven't always been able to say that.

There have been many times where we have simply endured National Signing Day kind of knowing that at least one thing was going to go wrong.

And I remember last year thinking, you know, if we could just get through this deal like other people do, you know, how normal would that be to just have a break every now and again,

not to have to go through signing day, fearing you're going to lose a player,

fearing that a guy's not going to sign, fearing a guy is going to prolong the process. You know,

it's nice for this time to get it done. And that, you know, listen, you got to give Jim Moorhead and staff a lot of credit.

They went through a very difficult October,
