The hometown product stunned the country tonight by spurning MSU and selecting the Tide.
Mississippi State fans already reeling from the big recruiting news earlier today have simply been left speechless tonight. On the heels of a big recruiting miss, MSU now learns tonight that blue chip mascot Bully, a long time State lean, has committed to Alabama tonight.
Releasing a statement on Twitter through his handler, Bully thanked MSU for its hospitality but said he ultimately picked Alabama because of the recruiting efforts put in by its coaches. Sources close to the situation said MSU Coach Dan Mullen had been mailing it in on Bully's recruitment for weeks, looking at his phone during walks and skipping out on belly rubs.
