Scott Goodman K from Brandon taking a PWO with us. Couldnt be prouder. We got a steal

That?s awesome! He?s a good one!

[BuckyIsAB****]

That?s awesome! He?s a good one!

Prolly deserved a full ride, but he will get one before he leaves I can promise you that.

[Commercecomet24]

Prolly deserved a full ride, but he will get one before he leaves I can promise you that.

When I saw him on the visit list I was hoping he would get a PWO and take it. Our kicking situation is becoming a plus. I like it.

[ShotgunDawg]

Got preferred walk-on commit from the Brandon kicker Goodman tonight.

If you remember the MS/AL game, there wasn't much difference between him & McPhearson

[BuckyIsAB****]

When I saw him on the visit list I was hoping he would get a PWO and take it. Our kicking situation is becoming a plus. I like it.

Agreed. He is a lot like Knight, he will do nothing but help us no matter if he never kicks a ball. Great kid

[HoopsDawg]

Great news. I hear he will likely be out kickoff guy next year.

[BuckyIsAB****]

Great news. I hear he will likely be out kickoff guy next year.

I can tell you he was the best K I have ever seen at this level. He will consistently put it out of the endzone.

Hit a 55 yd FG this year

[BuckyIsAB****]

Got another PWO commit from Tj McMahon QB from CA.

Stacking em up, hope it continues tomorrow

[Todd4State]

Scott Goodman K from Brandon taking a PWO with us. Couldnt be prouder. We got a steal

Sweet!

[Commercecomet24]

Agreed. He is a lot like Knight, he will do nothing but help us no matter if he never kicks a ball. Great kid

Really, really good get for us. Big leg, great kid! Joe just eliminated the loss of McPherson without using a scholly right now. Proud for Goodman!

[Todd4State]

Lovett on Twitter is saying he isn't signing tomorrow.

And.......we're off! Gotta love recruiting drama.

[msstate7]

Lovett on Twitter is saying he isn't signing tomorrow.

Wow. Nothing good for us here.

[ShotgunDawg]

Lovett on Twitter is saying he isn't signing tomorrow.

And.......we're off! Gotta love recruiting drama.

Wow. This one reeks.

Absolutely reeks of shenanigans

[Irondawg]

The problem is the domino effect for other kids. For instance Young gets and offer from us that he wants if Lovett go elsewhere. Now he?s hung up

[preachermatt83]

Told ya.

[msstate7]

Not signing with anyone makes me think bama or the like asked him to hold up

[Todd4State]

I see where you are coming from on that. However, if it were me and since we have some spots open and can sign more than 25 I would just offer Young just in case. I'm sure Joe will have it figured out tomorrow as far as what to do.

[Todd4State]

Not signing with anyone makes me think bama or the like asked him to hold up

Could be. If that's the case I bet we still get him.

[Irondawg]

Not signing with anyone makes me think bama or the like asked him to hold up

It just makes me think he isn?t sold on us for whatever reason. So odds of this ended well for the good guys just went down dramatically

[msstate7]

Be interesting if reed signs. Are they a package deal or not?

[Big4Dawg]

He tweeted: It’s NOT my fault that I’m not signing tomorrow guys‼️����*♂️

Maybe he wants to go to UF but parents don’t want him to

Bucky on sps says...
Dad wants Florida
Mom wants om
Lovett wants state

[sandwolf]

Under a microscope, huh? You really think anyone gives a rat's ass in the NCAA?

The NCAA wanted OM to get hammered......they investigated the shit out of them and wound up using immunity interviews in order to get what they needed to charge them with LOIC. It was the COI that went lighter on the sanctions than they could have gone (however the sanctions are not nearly as light many of our fans make them out to be). But I'd be willing to bet that the NCAA will be watching for OM to get cocky and careless.....I would imagine that they would love the opportunity to finish those arrogant assholes off, and if they catch them in the repeat violator window then the COI won't have any choice but to bury them.

[Cooterpoot]

Now you know why he got bumped up.

[msstate7]

If Lovett goes elsewhere, this class went from solid to below avg assuming there are no good surprises tomorrow.

[Irondawg]

Everything I had read to date I thought said the Dad was pro MSU because he really liked Baker.

How crazy would it be for us to be all over Dan for his recruiting and then he takes two of our guys in the final weeks

[ShotgunDawg]

I doubt this has anything to do with Dan and everything to do with OM offering someone in that family a boatload of something at the last minute.

This reeks of handouts.

[Cooterpoot]

He’s going to sign with OM.

[Irondawg]

We all know these things rarely play in our favor in football, Simmons and Jones being exceptions.

We land him and my faith in the staff goes up because we have a good idea what they are fighting

[Todd4State]

According to the Florida 247 board it sounds like it's between MSU and Florida and per them the Dad wants Florida and Lovett wants MSU. We shall see.

And 7- Bucky's post on SPS says "Mom wants well you know". That could very well mean MSU. I'm not sure what he means until he clarifies it.

[BuckyIsAB****]

He’s going to sign with OM.

Got a sick feeling this is what is going on.

Although him saying its not his fault probably means its his parents or a family member.

[Todd4State]

If it was Ole Miss wouldn't they have him commit in front of Rosebowl by blindsiding him and not giving any clues whatsoever? That's their typical M.O. They wouldn't wait and drag it out.

I could be wrong but it sounds to me like it's between MSU and Florida. I don't see any reason why the Florida message board reporter would post what he did if it was Ole Miss.

[Bothrops]

If it is Florida, I have a bad feeling that Dan could be planning on using future MSU recruits, not only to try and supplement his own classes, but also as a backup plan when others fall through, late in the process. This could happen from now on. It will be interesting to see how involved he is recruiting the 2019 MS class. That Sept. 29th game is all the more important.

Dan's influence will drop dramatically after this class.

[Cooterpoot]

How many MS kids has Dan pulled to FL this year? Dan still sucks at recruiting.

[msstate7]

Dan still sucks at recruiting.

Looks like we do too

[MetEdDawg]

Looks like we do too


Well here?s the question. If mom wants him at OM and dad wants him at UF, and Lovett himself wants to go to MSU, what would you specifically have wanted us to do to get him?

[msstate7]

Well here?s the question. If mom wants him at OM and dad wants him at UF, and Lovett himself wants to go to MSU, what would you specifically have wanted us to do to get him?

Not sure. Just seems we (miss state, not just current coach) lose an awful lot of heavy leans at the end.

[Cooterpoot]

Looks like we do too

Why, because of a couple 3 star guys? Who, by the way, were...Mullen recruits.

[msstate7]

Why, because of a couple 3 star guys? Who, by the way, were...Mullen recruits.

It is more than a couple. Lovett is a 4-Star too

[HancockCountyDog]

Let’s keep negative comments about family members of recruits off this board.

[Wade Garrett]

https://twitter.com/fabo_54/status/961220860563677184

Looks like dad really is the problem

[Homedawg]

He tweeted: It?s NOT my fault that I?m not signing tomorrow guys‼️����*♂️

Maybe he wants to go to UF but parents don?t want him to

It's the other way around......wish he'd just sign anyway. He's 18 doesn't need his parents sig. but that's a lot easier said than done I know

[Bully13]

Let’s keep negative comments about family members of recruits off this board.

Well if you look at that tweet, a particular family member is deserving of a negative comment or two.

[HancockCountyDog]

I hate this is playing out so publically.

[Ifyouonlyknew]

Fabien wants to sign with MSU. Dad want Florida. Mom doesn't care. Fabien making this public imo is trying to pressure his dad to sign the MSU NLI. He doesn't want to be at Florida & isn't planning on signing there.

[Ifyouonlyknew]

I hate this is playing out so publically.

I agree but sometimes these parents need to be exposed. Happens a ton & some kids just go with it Bc it's their Parents.

[msstate7]

I hate this is playing out so publically.

It was the kid?s decision to play out publically.

Lovett, ?I wanna stay at home to play football.?

Dad, ?No son, go 10 hours from here.?

[ShotgunDawg]

Fabien wants to sign with MSU. Dad want Florida. Mom doesn't care. Fabien making this public imo is trying to pressure his dad to sign the MSU NLI. He doesn't want to be at Florida & isn't planning on signing there.

He’ll be a dawg then imo.

Can’t make a kid sign where he doesn’t want to go. My guess is that the Dad comes around

[HoopsDawg]

I can’t believe we didn’t stay on Eddie Smith. Steve said we didn’t even send him papers. That’s just dumb.

[ShotgunDawg]

I can’t believe we didn’t stay on Eddie Smith. Steve said we didn’t even send him papers. That’s just dumb.

Hoops. You’re smarter than this

Of course we’ve stayed on him and recruited him to the end but he told us he was going to Bama.

I’ve always considered you a credible poster but this post makes me wonder.

[HancockCountyDog]

If we didn’t send him papers, that’s not staying on him.

[Ifyouonlyknew]

Eddie signed his papers last night that's why we didn't send papers this morning.

[Ifyouonlyknew]

Fabien signing today. Sometimes pressure works.

[HoopsDawg]

Surtain was a big LSU lean until today. If he signs with Bama, that could have changed things.

[Commercecomet24]

Fabien signing today. Sometimes pressure works.

That's good news as long as he's signing with us lol

[HoopsDawg]

Fabien signing today. Sometimes pressure works.

Nice. First real win for the new staff.

[Commercecomet24]

Eddie signed his papers last night that's why we didn't send papers this morning.

Makes sense.

[msstate7]

Fabien signing today. Sometimes pressure works.

Good job, staff

[archdawg]

Do we know times when any of our targets are expecting sign? I assume there are going to be a few signing events at high schools?

[ShotgunDawg]

Surtain was a big LSU lean until today. If he signs with Bama, that could have changed things.

I get your point, but your point assumes complete laziness & ignorance from our staff

[RezDog7]

Good job, staff

Do we know that he’s signing with us?

[HoopsDawg]

I get your point, but your point assumes complete laziness & ignorance from our staff

It doesn’t hurt anything to still send the paperwork

[Doggie_Style]

Do we know times when any of our targets are expecting sign? I assume there are going to be a few signing events at high schools?

Lovett, Reed at 9:15
Watson at 11:00
Brule at 12:00

[Doggie_Style]

No.....we don't know where Lovett is signing

[Ari Gold]

No.....we don't know where Lovett is signing

Yeah we kind of do know.

[Bully13]

Yeah we kind of do know.

State?

[GreenheadDawg]

Yeah we kind of do know.

and who would that be with?

[Ifyouonlyknew]

It doesn?t hurt anything to still send the paperwork

TBuck spoke to Eddie last night. He told him his papers had already been signed. That's why we didn't send him papers.

[ShotgunDawg]

My guess is that Eddie Smith gets put on the Nigel Knott plan & we never hear from him again.

[Ari Gold]

Guys,
Think of Eddie Smith like that chick you always wanted to bang but she was always into guys like me . And just let it go.

[Tbonewannabe]

Is Eddie Smith one of those guys Bama signs in case they don't get someone else but if they end up getting them, they give him a greyshirt?

[BrunswickDawg]

Guys,
Think of Eddie Smith like that chick you always wanted to bang but she was always into guys like me . And just let it go.

Ah yes, the girl with tits in middle school, who is banging college guys in high school, who drops out her Sophomore year in college to wait tables while pursuing acting/singing/art career, who ends up in porn in her 20s, and becomes a meth head in her 30s.

Hahahahaha!!! Nice!

Glad we fought till the end. Sounds like we out recruited every one but Bama so that?s something I guess.

[I seen it dawg]

You sound like ****ing Freeze. You forget the early sign guys? Stupid

[Cary Hudson's little bro]

My 6 yesterday -
Fabien Lovett
Jaylon Reed
Nate Watson
Aaron Brule
Esaias Furdge
Cameron Young (I say Jalan Robinson now)

Patterson to Co-Lin (Jones actually)

[Ifyouonlyknew]

Yea he was coming to MSU but when Saban called & said get in the boat last week he got in the boat.

Yeah, I don't think she makes it through porn.

Fabien Lovett

That's my guess on how we finish as well.

I don't know what happened to her after she got knocked up in high school but I hope Melanie from a little town in Northeast MS didn't get into meth. I also really hope she didn't film any porn because I will start googling.

[msstate7]

You sound like ****ing Freeze. You forget the early sign guys? Stupid

Lovett bumps us into top 30. Without Lovett, we are below 30. I stand by what I said

[Ifyouonlyknew]

Lovett bumps us into top 30. Without Lovett, we are below 30. I stand by what I said

We'll finish closer to 25 than 30

[Doggie_Style]

Furdge is in..

[msstate7]

We'll finish closer to 25 than 30

With Lovett?

[maroonmania]

TBuck spoke to Eddie last night. He told him his papers had already been signed. That's why we didn't send him papers.

Yep, heck, if Smith notified us this morning he wanted to sign with us we would send him the papers. That will not be the reason we lose him.

[Ari Gold]

We'll finish closer to 25 than 30

With Murphy being a 3star.. which is absurd.

[I seen it dawg]

Lovett bumps us into top 30. Without Lovett, we are below 30. I stand by what I said

And again sound like Freeze.

[maroonmania]

My guess is that Eddie Smith gets put on the Nigel Knott plan & we never hear from him again.

Agreed, Knott and Lashley made career ending decisions going to Bama. High chance Smith is doing the same.

[Commercecomet24]

We'll finish closer to 25 than 30

This.

[Ifyouonlyknew]

With Lovett?

With everybody

[msstate7]

And again sound like Freeze.

If wanting to stay 20ish in recruiting is like freeze, well I guess you are right.

25ish in a transition year is pretty solid. We should not finish outside top 30.

[msstate7]

With everybody

You threw out the caveat on my post, but whatever

[Ari Gold]

If wanting to stay 20ish in recruiting is like freeze, well I guess you are right.

25ish in a transition year is pretty solid. We should not finish outside top 30.

There isn’t much difference between 15-25

[I seen it dawg]

No you spit out stupid shit like recruiting is below average if we don’t get Lovett. We signed some damn good players early and you are not even taking them into account. Like Freeze and his punishment class.

[msstate7]

[Commercecomet24]

This! If you look at average ranking per player and such there's almost no difference. It's about getting the pieces you need in each class and we filled some big needs in this class.

[msstate7]

This! If you look at average ranking per player and such there's almost no difference. It's about getting the pieces you need in each class and we filled some big needs in this class.

The difference between 25 and 15 is like us signing Patrick surtain. I would say that is a notable difference

[Cary Hudson's little bro]

Well, Bama gets Patrick Surtain Jr...Sure wish we had Nigel Knott and Eddie Smith....17!

We need to flip Brandon Turnage!

[Ari Gold]

Robinson - Kansas...

[msstate7]

Robinson - Kansas...

We got beat by Kansas for a player. Home state, but still

[Bothrops]

Robinson - Kansas...

Say what now..

[Commercecomet24]

Did you not read the whole post? It's about getting the pieces you need and we got some big pieces. Dang man look at what we have sometimes instead of what we don't have. Everyone wants the studs for sure but we filled some big needs in this class.

[HoopsDawg]

In some ways, better Bama than LSU on Surtain

LOL, oh well. 1 olinemen this year again.

[Commercecomet24]

Robinson - Kansas...

According to 247 Kansas has 0 tackles on their roster and 0 commits. Guess he'll be the only tackle they have on the field next year****

[msstate7]

LOL, oh well. 1 olinemen this year again.

Perhaps hev was not the problem. We continue to whiff

[Ari Gold]

Young will prob sign now and get shot at OL...

[Doggie_Style]

dude...go get a cup of coffee. you're driving me crazy

[Bothrops]

That's a lot to take on at once. My hat's off to 'em.

[Bully13]

who from Olive Branch just committed to play at Itawamba CC ?

Please don't let it be J. Reed

[Cooterpoot]

We're going to sign Young is a higher rated prospect anyway. Robinson couldn't let go of mom's teet.

[Westdawg]

Please don't let it be J. Reed

The kid's name was Jalen.....not sure of the spelling, but saw a snippet of a video from a few minutes ago where he announced that. I hope not as well.

If they are close, I would rather have the miss kid anyway. It is concerning though that we obviously wanted Robinson more

[HoopsDawg]

Perhaps hev was not the problem. We continue to whiff

Hev just missed on a big target from UF. Kid chose OSU. I was never excited about Robinson. Apparently he was not 6-6. More like 6-4. No D1 offers other than Kansas. A lot of pressure on M Johnson to sign 5 really good olinemen this class.

[Commercecomet24]

According to 247 Reed signed with Us.

The fact that Moorhead needed to hit on multiple OL this year isn't on him, its on Mullen for the past two or three years of OL recruiting. Its not Moorhead's fault that Mullen has undersigned this position multiple times in the past few years, and its not Moorhead's fault that, as well as I can remember, Mullen was really only going after 2 more OL prospects this year (Dolla Bill, Carvin, and maybe McDowell just before he took to UF job). It IS disappointing that he couldn't come in and snag a few new guys, but I don't think its fair to put this on Moorhead yet.

I've seen Young. I haven't seen Robinson other than his video stuff. Young is a really good athlete. I won't be surprised if is playing his RS Soph year. And his dream school is MSU.

[Ari Gold]

Just little FYI .
Umiss who’s head coach was the OL coach there for years .
Have have 1 OL signed . And we basically passed on him.

[msstate7]

The fact that Moorhead needed to hit on multiple OL this year isn't on him, its on Mullen for the past two or three years of OL recruiting. Its not Moorhead's fault that Mullen has undersigned this position multiple times in the past few years, and its not Moorhead's fault that, as well as I can remember, Mullen was really only going after 2 more OL prospects this year (Dolla Bill, Carvin, and maybe McDowell just before he took to UF job).

Moorhead is certainly behind the 8 ball bc of Mullen.

Guard or Tackle? Looks like a guard because of his height.

Getting Lovett is a very good job by this staff.

[Cooterpoot]

Probably G but he's got long arms.

[tcdog70]

We got beat by Kansas for a player. Home state, but still

if I was choosing a pick up team, i would rather go get a JUCO OL than some left-over kid out of Kansas. We have 2 JUCO that have RS and are now ready to go. We are Ok with Olinemen. Joe will have us some Linemen next year and it will be alright.

[Commercecomet24]

Probably G but he's got long arms.

Thanks for the info. Just looking at his height I thought guard but if he's got a good wingspan he can play tackle.

[dawgday166]

dude...go get a cup of coffee. you're driving me crazy

LOL ... he just needs to take his anti-depressants. I'm hoping he does before he steps too far out on that ledge he's on **

[msstate7]

Nice win for Moorhead on Lovett. Get brule now, joe

[Doggie_Style]

Getting Lovett is a very good job by this staff.

I agree.....they proved they could close on a top target. It is huge!!!

Absolutely and it's something I don't think the previous staff couldve done. They would've probably just moved on and let him go. Good job, Joe!

I hope he signs with us....the previous staff left us with a huge hole to fill at OL and it will have to be addressed this year, thanks Merlins!

[desotodawgz]

Is the offer to Jones a sign we are going to have a miss?

[bostondawg]

Not that my opinion matters on anything, but I like Jones over Robinson anyway. If we're gonna offer kids who probably won't ever touch the field, you might as well make it the kid from Starkville who dreams of playing at MSU.

[Doggie_Style]

Is the offer to Jones a sign we are going to have a miss?

ugh yea....we missed on McDowell, Winkel and Robinson and couldn't seem to generate any interest from others. It was a near impossible task given the time frame.

[desotodawgz]

I mean a miss on Watson or Brule because we already offered Young in Robinson's place

[Westdawg]

my last wish for this class is getting Brule signed. But i am pleased overall with the class. OL are a MUST for 2019, however.

[yjnkdawg]

I mean a miss on Watson or Brule because we already offered Young in Robinson's place



Shouldn't have any reference to Brule or Watson.

[Homedawg]

looks like jones and not young. never seen young, but jones doesnt thrill me at all.

[Cooterpoot]

I believe Young will sign too. Maybe not today.

[BuckyIsAB****]

Jones said he is announcing at 1:30.

Hopefully means he's signing with us. Dont know why he would wait if he was sticking with ULL

[Doggie_Style]

Watson a Dawg!

[KOdawg1]

Watson is a dawg

[msstate7]

Jones said he is announcing at 1:30.

Hopefully means he's signing with us. Dont know why he would wait if he was sticking with ULL

If he chooses ull over us, God help us

[Jack Lambert]

Servite HS in Anaheim. Big School in Southern California. He's depth. Preferred walk on.

We must have someone else at that school who is a underclassmen we are interested in. Got to get your foot into the door.

[msstate7]

So, brule and Jones all that are left?

Glad to see us reaching out a little bit, extending our footprint, even if it is a PWO. I like the staff is thinking outside the box.

[BuckyIsAB****]

Been in Starkville his whole life, he may wanna leave. Just a guess if it happens

Who you speaking of? Lol

[BuckyIsAB****]

Tylan Knight signed with OM

[yjnkdawg]

So, brule and Jones all that are left?

I don't think Watson has signed yet?

[msstate7]

I don't think Watson has signed yet?

Think he just did with good guys

[yjnkdawg]

Cool ... I wasn't referring to he wasn't, but just hadn't seen where his papers had been received.

Brule 12:00

I'm ecstatic with this class no matter what else happens today Moorhead and Co. did a great job with what they had to work with. A great sign for the future! HailState!!

[PSYCHO(thesis)DEFENSE]

Tylan Knight signed with OM

BREAKING: BuckyIsAB**** flips from Elite Dawgs to Nafoom

[msstate7]

Our avg per recruit has only been topped one time (2015) in last 10 years... quit looking at 2008. I like this. I really like some of the pieces we got in this class. I know I have been critical of this class, but I just really wanted to make a run at top 20. Get brule and this is a pretty solid transition class. Need to be around 15ish next season with all the players we lose though.

LOL I can't argue with this. Unless something goes crazy, we should get Brule.

[Doggie_Style]

Brule to State!!!

[yjnkdawg]

Brule just said he's signing with the good guys.

[Bothrops]

Brule in the house!!

[Doggie_Style]

What a well spoken and intelligent young man....great pick up for Moorhead!

[Bully13]

Brule, LB or safety?

[msstate7]

Good job on brule, staff

[BigEasyDawg]

Hip Hip, Brule!!!!!!

[Commercecomet24]

There has been a lot of angst here the last few weeks but this staff is doing a solid job closing out this class. Could it have been better? Sure, but they had a short amount of time to make up a lot of ground and they did a bang up job. Kudos to JoMo and staff.

[Doggie_Style]

Hip Hip, Brule!!!!!!

Meltdown avoided!

[BuckyIsAB****]

Good job by the staff this cycle. Now lets make a run at ATL in 2018

[Commercecomet24]

This is why it's always best to let things play out and finish. Always plenty of time to bitch afterwards if it doesn't work out lol

Wow. We may have staff that can win a recruiting battle

[HoopsCoach21]

So just waiting to hear on Jones and Young now?

[Commercecomet24]

It's apparent that our new staff has a little bit of Bulldog in them as far as recruiting goes. This staff has given relentless effort on the recruiting trail. Yeah they missed on some but they never stopped working and got some guys that our previous staff would've probably just let go. They also had contingency plans for recruits as well. And this from a staff that's only been complete for a few week. Bodes well for the future.

[Doggie_Style]

One hell of a week if you are a State fan, WBB-win, MBB-win, NSD-win.....awesome!

Plus a commit from an outstanding UConn 5* women's basketball player, and an OM men's basketball home loss to MO.

And that was the point me and quite a few others were trying to make.

1) We aren't going to beat Bama for out of state guys most likely. At least not right now. So if Eddie Smith got a Bama offer there wasn't a thing we could do about it.

2) We missed on some OL. No one should be shocked. We were left with an awful start to OL recruiting, so Moorhead had to make up too much ground to try and get a legitimate OL in here. Sucks but that is where Mullen killed us the most.

3) We won some battles today and don't let anyone else tell you otherwise. Good job by the staff and a good close for us.

Absolutely agree. I've learned over the years to be patient and let things play out cause you don't always finish where you start. It's why I don't panic in the first inning of a baseball game or in the first half of a football or basketball. Gotta let things finish and play out. Now if you don't finish the job then it's time to re-evaluate where you are. The staff did a great job making this a solid class. They pulled some guys that the previous staff would've just given up on. Proud of Joe and staff for their hard work and effort! New day for MSU football!

The staff that came here from out side the south probably learned a lot about the past two months about recruiting here in the South. They know more going into next year about the nutt cutting way of recruiting down here.

Kameron Jones just signed..

[Bothrops]

Kameron Jones just signed..

This is good news. I know he's excited

[bostondawg]

Cameron Young has also signed. Not sure if anyone posted that.

[Commercecomet24]

2 more OLs is good. I know they were not the first choice but they want to be here and we all know we have had 2 stars and below turn into dang good offensive linemen. They want to be here so that means they are gonna work hard to develop. Glad to have them on board!

[Commercecomet24]

This is good news. I know he's excited

Happy for that young man! Always nice when a dream comes true.

[Jack Lambert]

You all might disagree but if there are decent 3 star guys out of starkville we have to take them. Just to keep other schools from being able to say we have a guy who passed on Miss State that is from that town. You don't think Ole Miss hasn't used that with Brown? I can hear it now "Brown was a life long state fan and he turned them down"

He could turn into a good SEC OL. THat we don't know yet.

[yjnkdawg]

Cameron Young has also signed. Not sure if anyone posted that.


I'm glad we went ahead and signed him now.

[Commercecomet24]

I love the fact our new staff didn't undersign and save "schollies". Its good to see us filling our class even if they aren't all "blue chippers". Always a chance a guy develops if you sign him, if you sign no one there's is absolutely zero chance.

[LibraryDawg]

Plus we have to stay in good graces with the coaches and underclassmen. They have a few studs coming up starting with Zach Edwards next year, a 4 star with offers from us, OM, LSU, and aTm already.

[Cary Hudson's little bro]

Bama signs 4 HS CB's today and a 5th, Savion Smith, signed in Dec. Wonder how Eddie feels right now?

[Tbonewannabe]

I don't mind signing the OL because you never can tell how they develop once they get in the training program. We also have to have the bodies at least for the scout team.

[Commercecomet24]

Yeah just look at Beckwith, Dillon Day, Elgton was a last minute guy, Senior wasn't highly rated, I know there's some others as well. OL are harder to evaluate than QB's. We have had as many 4 star OL busts as we have had lowly rated guys become very good players. That's why I like the fact we went ahead and signed these guys. You just never know with OL and even if they don't become all SEC they give us depth, they can play scout team and special teams.

[ShotgunDawg]

He feels great because he gets to say he signed with Bama & he gets to wear Alabama t-shirts to class for the res of the year.

The interesting feeling will come about August 20th, when he realizes he is red shirting, 4th string, & a few of the FR he signed with are ahead of him on the depth chart.

Then the next interesting moment for him will come in October, when MSU is a top 10 team that he could be getting playing time for.

I know a guy who was a 5* OG out of the State of South Carolina and signed with Clemson. He never started and he said that there were three star guys who did start in front of him.
This was several years ago.

“I would like to thank Ole Mis for the sweet Nike backpack with the 10k inside on my official few weeks ago. Would also like to thank them for the blonde whore that was so nice to me , even tho I asked for a Brunette. But I have decided to take my talents to College Station.” Charles Strong

[Doggie_Style]

......as a side note I found out what happened with T. Sampson, the 4* OL from Detroit. While on his OV to Syracuse he was involved in a he said/she said assault type of situation. My understanding is that the young lady is not pursuing any retribution against him but it (obviously) sullied his recruiting.

Looks like he is Western Michigan bound.

Not saying we would be interested later , but he shouldn’t sign now and wait to later in the year.

You are absolutely correct. Jack. We cannot allow the enemy into come in our backdoor. We need to sign every good SHS athlete that's out their. Losing AJ was very embarrassing!

Didn't we flip Dillon Day from ULL (or maybe LT) on signing day with a late offer? Was thinking about that given the Kam Jones situation.

It was La Tech, he's from W. Monroe where I live.

[MetEdDawg]

Can someone explain this crap to me? NC State is ranked 26th on 24/7 overall in the team rankings. They have 23 commits with an average ranking of an 86.66. We also have 23 commits, but our average ranking is an 87.21. But we are ranked 1 spot behind them.

That makes no sense to me at all. They also have a 2 star committed to them. All of ours are 4 or 3 stars. I know it's only one spot, but I would be very interested to see how they can have a lower average rating, the same number of commits, and be ranked ahead of us.

I'm gonna guess some garbage algorithm does it.....

Each position is weighted due to importance.

For example: 96 rated QB Matt Corrall is worth 11 points for OM’s recruiting class while a 96 rated safety may only be worth 7 or 8 points.

I haven’t looked at NC State’s class, but they must have a slightly different position construct that they signed that the alogoritum found more appealing.

It’s certainly debatable but I think we would all agree there should be weight since building a winning football team is likely easier with a 5 star QB than a 5 star LB

In theory, I agree. If you look at how well 5* QBs pan out though, it is around 50% or it was from 2006-2016

All recruiting rankings are is a theory.

Plus, the QB/LB example is just an extreme. OL May be slightly more weighted than CBs. It’s an entire system of weights
