He gone. Had little interest in us once he started getting offers. We weren’t even his 2nd option.

I figured. Oh well, move on and let's get someone else. That's all you can do.

Is it because this is such a deep, talented class that it seems like more than usual are going out of state thus far?

This is exactly correct. Just think how many guys would have gotten away if Mullen had been here.

The truth is in most year MS only has 3-5 guys that the LSU's and Bama's want and push for, this class has 15+. So it's not that this class doesn't like MS relative to past classes, nor is it that we've always gotten our pick of guys and it's just the scraps that are leaving. There's a lot more guys leaving this year because there's a lot more guys with the opportunity to leave. Is what it is, just have to rely on out of state guys to fill in

You recruit for the most part by the book because the book exist for a reason. It's usually right. When you start signing a bunch of players that don't have the measurables of a typical SEC football player, you end up with a team of players that don't have the measurables of a typical SEC football player
Rayburn from Hancock can ball. Trust me.
A lot of people said Austin Williams was too small to play in the SEC and now look. Rayburn is faster than Williams and about the same size he was in high school.

Shouldn't be surprising... apparently Georgia gets who they want. I have a hard time seeing us flip an out of state kid from the newest recruiting king on the block. Next...

And we don’t need another possession receiver. Plus, remind me what Williams has done when he’s actually done it in a game. People are waaaay over buying on his stock. He’s no big play guy. He’s a smart guy. We need big play potential. But, Rayburn is probably going to get his shot.

Maybe not
But it will be a lot easier to flip from UGA than LSU ...
I put it out there then all the so called recruiting experts followed suit saying that Emery would commit to state And I always thought it would be a battle to keep him . We now have a bigger battle on our hands that’s to flip him .. and from what I have heard The Dad is who’s pro UGA which is conflicting news that was reported by Rosebowl since he “talked to the dad”..
Let’s see what happens I don’t know about IYOK but I will stay on Emery Island until he signs.. Because I don’t think he shuts it down.. we shall see

We need big play potential RIGHT NOW, but 3-5 years from now (when you can expect most '19 commits to be starters) we'll need both big play and possession receivers. You can't just ignore one because it looks like the current roster is stacked with them- Mitchell, Jackson, Mixon, Dear, Thomas, Couch will all be gone when Rayburn/whatever 2019 kid is in his prime.
Note that I'm not saying anything about Rayburn, I know nothing about him. I'm merely saying that we also need to recruit possession guys along with home run outside threats

I think Emery ends up at LSU. I think this is just the flip set up for them.

You guys would recruit like Mullen. He would’ve already offered Rayburn. He has no offers. No need to jump on that right now.

I'm just basing my opinion on what I see from the outside looking in. My opinion on this is 100% speculation. Would love to be wrong. You clearly know much, much more than me on this

If I believed I was a great RB, I’d choose UGA over LSU. Much better shot at winning it all. I’m just guessing on Emery. I have no info there.

Remember this post when he scores his 1st TD 1st game!

I think there's a lot of local pressure on him to go to LSU and he doesn't want to go there. Just a guess.

If he can play I want him. But I would also at the same time see how the board looks and offer him later if there is a spot.
