When you’re Mississippi State and you’re chasing new recruits, what’s the one thing that you have that no one else can match? Simple: the Egg Bowl trophy.
Bulldogs coach Dan Mullen made that point clear on a Thursday night visit with four-star wide receiver D.D. Bowie, part of a bid to flip Bowie’s commitment from in-state rival Ole Miss.
Bowie, who is from Morton (Miss.) High, posted a photo of the visit on Twitter — and as it shows, Mullen brought something along for the ride.
Yes, that’s the Egg Bowl trophy itself, which the Bulldogs claimed in November with a resounding 55-20 rout of their bitter archrivals.
