    Brandon Walker now saying on Six Pack that we are now fighting an up hill battle for Murphy and that folks in WP are worried. Walker definitely has good sources in WP
    Not only did Mississippi State embarrass LSU on this night. Davis Wade Stadium wrecked Tiger Stadium in music choice, atmosphere and, most of all, volume.

    I always wonder if savvy recruits create drama at the end to see if they can get a little extra before they sign? Almost Jimmy Sexton is representing some of these guys
    Even if he visits this weekend, it doesn’t mean he will flip. Marlon Humphrey visited us the last recruiting weekend before he picked Alabama. Did we really see that one going for the good guys?

    I would if I were them. My problem with this is understanding how they suddenly just become a huge factor basically just by hiring Pruitt? But whatever, i'm getting tired of reading daily drama on "committed kids" flirting with other programs.

    The downside to all these coaching hires is some bigger schools really needing to make a splash with recruits and it's going to hurt us b/c several of them hired guys with ties our primary recruiting area. All this i don't think is about losing our old staff, but more about the new people at other jobs.

    Will keep fingers crossed on this one

    Yup. Amazing how you can be fighting an uphill battle to a staff that was hired a few days ago at a bad program.

    We just have to prevent him from taking the visit.

    Got to figure with TN's Pruitt being the coach and Fair (their DB coach) doing the visit, they are selling Murphy by telling him he's a natural fit for their safety position and they are going to have a lights out defense like Alabama's. They are probably negatively recruiting by telling Murphy that MSU is going to use him wrong on offense (that would also be backed up by Merlens original plan as Murphy being a safety).

    This would need to be countered by CJM by telling Murphy that he could possibly play both ways at MSU. We will see what's your natural fit.

    So Pruitt wanted to lose the State job to Moorhead? Because that's how it played out.

    A lot of these people aren’t our fans!! We will figure it out. And for the record, I don’t think anyone will flip!!

    Really? He wasn't ready to commit to a school until things shook out with Tenn and FSU

    That said, you were crazy if you did not expect other teams to come after our recruits.
    You'd better believe it.

    No but Pruitt wasn't going to commit to us if offered and was up front about that.

    What about the PR blitz saying he had been offered? Seems he was pushing us to hire him.

    Murphy is 100 percent bulldog. Same deal as Kylin with Texas last year. Don't blame these kids for taking visits.
