MS State hires Mike Leach

It's a great move IMO. No MS school is going to compete in the SECW trying to out-smashmouth Alabama and LSU. Heck, even LSU had to come to that realization somewhat.

MSU needs to shoot for 8 wins a year and have fun doing it. If they have a 10 win season every once in a while, that's the peak for them. Same is true for Ole Miss. The only way to be relevant is to be different, not try to be Alabama's mini-me.
Your statement is 100 percent correct. Lane Kiffen and Mike leach are going to bring an entertaining style of football to the SEC. With LSUs retooled offense coupled with the evolution of Alabama football, the SEC is going to offer smashmouth football and creative offensive play.
