To an extent yes. He's been great for us. But who's going to be that guy for us next year or the year after?

I wonder if IYOK or Ari are hearing any rumors of have insight?
Didn't realize Jerrion Ealy was waivering a bit. He seems to be warming up some to JoMo and Huff. He was at the MSU BBQ this weekend and was talking real positive about our football program. I thought he was a solid lock for the ReBearSharks. Genespage seems to think different and apparently Ealy is visiting BAMA as well. Lemonis spoke with him and guaranteed he could play football and baseball if he chooses. However, I still think he is a high draft choice and will take the money and run. If we're going after Ealy this hard, then that likely means Emery is gone for good to LSU and our staff knows it.
This isn't anything new besides him visiting and us getting an interview with him. There was similar things being said about a month or 2 ago. I wouldn't take it as us moving on from Emery but more so if he decides to go to college you definitely have to put your hat on the table and you do that by building a relationship with him.
Ealy is gone unless he gets hurt. Won’t be any money issue there.
Watching Ealy's film, he is a very good RB-almost comparable to Emery imo. I really wish we could get him to come to State.
While this class is better than most under Mullen, this weekend looks like a minor bust in terms of 2019 prospects. People were calling for as many as 5 commits from various classes and we have 1. Jackson no shows and spends 3 days in Oxford, Mingo doesn?t stay the night in Starkville but does Oxford. Charles Moore is at Tenn (not worried about that one), Hall said he was coming for a day but went to FSU instead, and apparently Coker Wright looked extremely average. More like Flop Dawg Weekend, am I?m right?**rimshot
However, Burdine and Ealy (him to a lesser extent given MLB status) were nice surprises. Hopefully we made some good strides with these ultra talented 2020 and younger guys.
More than anything we need the season to start. I think what has hurt us with the wide receivers is they still think that we're going to be a ground and pound option team. Once they see us winning and being balanced I think it will help a lot.
I also think Big/Top Dawg Camp is going to be different under Joe than it was Dan. With Dan I felt like he wanted everyone to commit so that he would have less work to do. With Joe we're going to be a lot more aggressive and proactive.
I don't get some people. We got some huge commits awhile back and the staff is doing a great job recruiting but our fans expect this kind of momentum every single day it seems. Have you not all figured out that there are peaks and valleys throughout this process? We are and will be fine. This is a different regime and I think they are leaps and bounds better than what we had as far as recruiters go.
This isn’t Dan Mullen. We aren’t putting everything into one weekend. Today was a camp and none of the guys with spots needed to be there. It’s pretty obvious a lot of kids are having fun with their recruiting.
Didn't we have a recent BDC that resulted in zero commits?
We?re going to add a couple commits the next couple weeks. You ***** ass fans keep whining just to hear yourselves.
So was Ealy the one Jarrian Jones was alluding to that would “Make Ole Miss fans sad?”
