"Take the Money and Run" may apply to someone other than Don Merlin. Hearing that AJ

[TrapGame]

Me too. And after a couple of touchdown catches, all the people who currently want nothing to do with him would forgive him too.....hell, after they saw the absolute raging meltdown that the OM fans would go into, they would probably forgive him before he ever set foot on the field.

If AJ actually wants to come and be a part of this team that's up to Coach Joe first but if it turns out to be reality AJ needs to speak to the team and tell them he wants to one of them and work hard to prove himself.

And you're right. After AJ does some weird-ass circus freak catches in Baton Rouge to lay a thumping on O next season all will be forgiven.

.....AJ needs to speak to the team and tell them he wants to one of them and work hard to prove himself.

Agreed. If I were the coach and he wanted to come, there would be absolutely zero question as to whether or not I would take him, but I would put some thought into how I brought him in.

[bostondawg]

I, frankly, do not believe these threads.

[msstatelp1]

My understanding is that Dr. Keenum was genuinely pissed over the Will Redmond stuff. If that's true, then AJ has no chance with the rumors floating around about him.


edit to add: although if there were any chance of this happening, I'd probably do it just as a big FU to OM.

[msstate7]

I think AJ wants to stay at OM, but, IMO it kind of all depends on who else transfers. If Shea and Ta’amu leave, then he will be hurting his draft stock by staying. Throw Little in the mix and it gets really bad.

I think many of these OM players are playing chicken until the semester ends. Once they go home for a Christmas, s$&@* gonna get real.

OM fans will not be able to enjoy Christmas this year.

If the UCLA rumor for Hawaii is true, he may bite. Who did the original Hawaii qb (Marcus mariota) play for in college? Yep, Chip Kelly. You know lil Hawaii looked up to MM

[TrapGame]

Murlenzo wouldn't take him back but we'll see what Coach Joe thinks about it.

[Liverpooldawg]

1) I don't belive it. 2) I don't think we will touch him with a 40 foot pole.

[Jacksondevildog]

I don’t believe it either.

[yjnkdawg]

1) I don't belive it. 2) I don't think we will touch him with a 40 foot pole.

I agree. I don't think he meets the other qualities (outside of being an elite reciever) that Coach Moorhead is looking for in a player.

[Spiderman]

1) I don't belive it. 2) I don't think we will touch him with a 40 foot pole.

100% on both counts

[gravedigger]

You heard this and believed it did you

[BoomBoom]

has had a change of heart and would like to come home. The biggest kicker is he realizes how much of an ass he was and does not even have the dignity to approach our new staff himself. He is trying to get his Starkville surrogates to put out feelers in the Athletic Department and around football building to see if we would even take him.

Maybe the new staff will listen and does not have a sour taste in their mouth's but time will tell. This may be the single worst week for the Confederates since Lee surrendered at Appomattox.

tell him he's welcome to walkon, but there's no scholarship for him.

[ShotgunDawg]

tell him he's welcome to walkon, but there's no scholarship for him.

He has plenty of money. Shouldn’t be an issue.

He’s got North of 400K between his football and baseball signing bonuses

[Quaoarsking]

Come home, Prodigal Son.

[bulldawg28]

Come home, Prodigal Son.

Lol... this. Come home!

[stalkingpoon]

I heard this same thing at work today in Starkville and didn't believe it. Maybe it has legs.

[munk_munk92]

Yall are crazy, I'd take him in a heart beat. I believe all can be forgiven plus it would destroy the school up north.

[Activated Alpha]

Bet he's just trolling our fan base

[Mjoelner34]

Bet he's just trolling our fan base

Or, he's hired Sexton and he's trolling tsun for a raise.

5-0 is not leaving
