Landon Slone Withdraws From Morehead State

By the time that Calapari realized the potential bad PR move (remember his twitter) Landon had already decided to go to MSU. I am not so sure that Cal would have reconsidered the move if given the opportunity. What does he have to lose to have a kid that is a fan favorite, made the dean's list, and busts his tail every day as a walk on?
I dunno, but I think the new fan favorites are Wall, Cousins, etc, etc, etc. I'm willing to wager that there is noone outside of the mountains that gives a tiddly toot about a mountain boy being on the team, as long as they get a national championship.

Realisticly, all the fanbase wants to see is win, win, win. And that's all,....... period. Win a championship with kids from say, The Sudan, and your a god. Loose with mountain boys, and you'll get run out of town in the blink of an eye.. Sorry, but that's the fan base mentality in a nut shell.
