The only way he drops to a high or mid 4 is because he doesn't play this year ..
Kids a 5 star talent so who cares.
Was Shump really a 5* at some point? I missed that.
True and they will have plenty of chances to prove if they are under rated. I don't think players should be rated as Juniors in HS. All that is is fluff to appease fans. Not to say some of them are justified in their rating but most will drop from their intitial rating.
Montravious Richardson is going to JUCO
So basically, with Suggs having to RS and Cooper also going to JUCO, we recruited an academically ineligibile OL last year.
MSU football is committed to excellence in every way.
We need to sign about 10 OL this class
LOL
What's happened in OL recruiting over the past 2 classes is incompetence. No other way to explain it.
Dollar Bill is a GREAT get, but he's the only one we have committed in 2018.
Between Siddiq Charles, Cole Smith, Cushenberry, Shawn Rawlings, Javon Patterson, Lashely, Etc, it's been one kick in the nuts after another at that position and no one seems to be taking pride in making it better.
It's like we play musical chairs at that position every year and always get left without a seat.
I've noticed a common theme between many of them- "Mississippi State just wasn't talking to me or seemed to be as interested in me as __." Now that's not every case to be clear but I have a feeling that probably explains Lashley and Cole Smith to a degree- and those two should have been slam dunks for a below average recruiter. Charles actually was one of the guys that said my quote when he committed to LSU.
A guy like Dolla Bill who is a legit 4-5 star guy that wants to go to MSU and completely shut down his recruitment is rare and is a once every ten years kind of thing.
I would not be surprised AT ALL if he doesn't sign with us. I've just completely come to expect it at this point.. I never once thought Lashley was going anywhere besides MSU then Hev screwed that one up. I wouldn't put anything past him.. we should be calling Kwatrivous every single day acting like he isn't committed and treating him like the 5 star recruit at our biggest position of need that he is.
Since we have 22 commits and only four obvious takes other than OL (Williams, Crumedy, Guidry and Whop), I would hope the whole staff is combing the country for OLs.
