No idea, but I'd love it be Simmons, lashley, or AJ

[Really Clark?]

Porter maybe

South Panola guy - Drelan Porter

Well dang. Everyone posted one right after another & I hit the refresh button & I was 3rd to post. Oops. My bad. Already late info.

100% crystal balled to UNM... Yeaahhh recruiting "experts" weighing in there!

Maybe they're trying to return the Leo Lewis favor this year with another LB?

[Okrastar1]

That was truly my first thought... Flipmas making a return?

[msstate7]

Is this a kid OM wants? If so, kinda weird to commit to state this early considering he's in om's stronghold

[HoopsDawg]

Probably a sign and place. I just scanned our commitments, not too impressive. I like the LA guys. Champion and Myers are listed but probably won't be a part of this class.

don't think he has a firm OM offer. OM is recruiting at a really high level.

Could look a lot better if lashley, AJ, and Simmons commit

I have a feeling they are going to shoot high and miss again, just like last year.

[MSUDawg99]

And one of LSU's 4 star commits ruled ineligible for his senior season. Damn! https://twitter.com/scoutrecruiting/status/647121972367749120

Yeah cause OM doesn't ever recruit 3 star guys with a big upside right..... Maybe he doesn't want to go there and play for a team that's going to be on probation soon....
there a few schools in Mississippi that have a high school coaching staff that gets kids ready for college ball
SP is one of them..
And FYI , the coach there at SP isn't a fan of a certain coach that is coaching in the SEC....

I'm sure you weren't very impressed with
BMac
J Banks
D'Run
Dak
Preston
JRob
Gabe Jackson
Out of high school too...

[Ifyouonlyknew]

Porter & Market are cousins. He's been to Starkville tons of times. He's not a typical USP kid in that he hasn't just grown up going to OM games. He & Market little brother are best friends so he's been able to see MSU a lot more than most of the USP kids. OM hasn't recruited him as hard while our staff have been only really hard since Jr days & when ran a 4.5 at camp that sealed the deal on him being a take for us.

Good pick up... 6'4 200 lb .. Lots for room to get bigger and might be a great speed pass rush DE for us in the future..

[HoopsDawg]

Could look a lot better if lashley, AJ, and Simmons commit

For sure!

[mic]

For sure!

Give it time.... Let the kids enjoy the process...

[Ifyouonlyknew]

This class has the potential to close really really strong.

Scott Lashley
AJ Brown
Raekwon Davis
Kobe Jones
Jeffery Simmons
Jeremiah Moon
Daniel Crowell
Emmitt Gooden

All 4* kids that we have a good to great shot at.

Maybe. But currently their class is ranked 7th in the country.

What's great about this list..
All needs just not recruiting for star value..
Couple of big WR
Then we go Heavy on DL and OL

What you say is chance we land 5 of the 8? I think that's a reasonable goal for our staff

[Ifyouonlyknew]

Honestly I think 5 would be the minimum.

[Lumpy Chucklelips]

Ifyouonlyknew....what was the consensus of Moon's visit recently? How do we feel about him?

[msstate7]

Honestly I think 5 would be the minimum.

That would be one hell of a finish to land 5+ in that list

[Ifyouonlyknew]

Dad loves MSU. If we can get mom on our side we have a great chance. 2hrs >>>> 7hrs. He will take an OV in January & we'll see how it plays out.

[Coach34]

That would be one hell of a finish to land 5+ in that list

I know we are good on at least 4 already

[HancockCountyDog]

Honestly I think 5 would be the minimum.

Has Gooden's academics improved? I was told that he was a sign and place.

Not impossible but wouldn't say it's probable. He has a lot of work to do.

That is exactly what I was told. Makes sense why Tenn has backed off. Totally worth the risk;

[CadaverDawg]

Will Moton ever be in Starkville?

[HancockCountyDog]

He is living with JJ Grant right now, so Im not sure.

[Ifyouonlyknew]

Great question.

[Bothrops]

This is our type of guy. If he's anything like Market I like it.

[sleepy dawg]

Dude looks awesome. Glad to have him.

I saw where Daniel Crowell tweeted recently that he was "recommitting on Nov 28th". Recommitting? As in to UNM or committing to another school? I hope the latter. https://twitter.com/crowell3daniel/status/645628253168730112

[BossDawg]

don't think he has a firm OM offer. OM is recruiting at a really high level.

Their boosters know the NCAA can't/won't do much of anything, if anything. As far as I know, these rumors of Tunsil, the NCAA and other UM players aren't hurting them at all. I'd say State needs to turn the recruiting burners on, too. Slowly, but turn them on if they haven't already. I don't see a thing that UM is doing that State couldn't be doing.

[MSUDeltadawg1971]

Don't worry about Lashley, he's a Dawg! Let him enjoy his recruitment.

[Homedawg]

Will Moton ever be in Starkville?

Don't count on it.

[HSVDawg]

Champion and Myers are listed but probably won't be a part of this class.

Why not? I thought we were pretty high on both those guys. Are they not getting it done in the classroom?
