2019 Recruiting Thread

[Lord McBuckethead]

Every assumption I've made, you've also made on the other side. There is no difference.

Good thing we are discussing it then****

Yeah, I don't even read this thread anymore....seems the last recruiting update was 3 pages back.

[HoopsDawg]

Pnut, I'm starting to think that Dontario Drummond is legit. Might be the 2nd best receiver on our team this year. I hope we turn up the heat. Any idea who are competition would be?

69 yard TD reception tonight for Drummond. 10 TD's last year. Had anyone from the laurel area seen him play in high school?

[Cooterpoot]

He and Reddix can both play. I doubt we take more than one Juco though because we’ve got a couple coming next year. Drummond is getting a look but we aren’t pulling the trigger yet. Still looking at a couple others but we aren’t getting the OM commit. I think he gets the offer unless we pull somebody out of state.

[Ifyouonlyknew]

I haven't seen Drummond play personally but I've talked to folks who say he's legit. He looks good on film my only question is he's only around 6'1" how well will he handle playing outside in the SEC.

[Dawgfan77]

I think it?s imperative that we go all in on a big JUCO WR. Also. Mingo is a must

I don't see us getting Mingo.

However, I think we flip another one of their WR commits in Jordan Jernigan

We have a Hill to climb for sure. From what i understand We don?t have many fans on the coaching staff at Brandon.

He can't or maybe he's confusing Brandon with Clinton

Brandon is Dawg Country.

[yjnkdawg]

But the question is, is it quality, and related to actual viable and worthwhile information on who we are recruiting or quantity, because a few just like to post or try to start arguments? Since about a month or so ago, I would vote the latter.

Recruiting before The Weeknd.
First off we have a BIG TIME 5 star 2020 RB Chris Tyree in for the weekend hopefully the weather doesn’t play a role

Was told...
We are still In the game for Turnage and Hall. Also for Dean as well. Basically if any or all 3 of these kids stay in state we are the school .
We think Cross will flip from FSU To MSU before all is said and done
We are really focused on OL right now
May get a commit This weekend 2020 kid
I asked about Mingo. Still have a shot but not too optimistic right now. Also my guy believes if Mingo ends up in Oxford look for them to move him to the defensive side. That’s where he will be needed most. I’m guessing we will use that in recruiting him.
We are looking juco route for an outisde WR .

I didn’t ask to much was pressed for time.

That’s the info. Do with it what u want. I’m out till next report which will be before Fla game. Unless something important happens .

Damn that's some really positive news across everything

[Cooterpoot]

I'll be surprised if Cross flips. Only way that happens is if the coaches get fired at FSU and even then I'm not sure it would happen. I don't believe we'll get Turnage, Hall, or Dean. Turnage to AL, Hall to AU, Dean to UGA would be my guesses there. Hopefully that changes.
Tyree would be huge. My Penn State family likes him (not in a Sandusky way either).
There's not a lot of big star recruits in this week but there are a lot of under the radar kids that I think we offer at some point.

At this point I would be happy to pull 1 of Hall, Dean, Turnage, Cross or Mingo. Two would be a coup. I also think the most likely scenario is we wiff on all 5 but I don't claim to KNOW shit.

You're probably right but MSU fans should take this personally. Just terrible.

Cross, Mingo, and Jackson are signing up to play for shitty programs & Hall & Dean both play a position that we have had tremendous success at producing NFL players. Throw Young, Turanage, Plumlee, & Handy in there as well. As frustrating of a recruiting year since possible the AJ, Lashely, Davis, Knott debacle

We'll end up with a nice class, but it we'll always ask "what could have been?"

Not sure Moorheads' staff will ever see a more loaded year in Mississippi from which to capitalize. Feels like we have come so far as a program only to see us not be able to finish the deal or even get some instate kids interested us.

And y'all get mad at me when I say this year is our window for the foreseeable future. The west is getting tougher, not easier

[ShotgunDawg]

And y'all get mad at me when I say this year is our window for the foreseeable future. The west is getting tougher, not easier

I just don't understand why we aren't having more success with Mississippi kids?

I mean, has Nakobe Dean even considered an in-state school at any point? When was the last time that happened & why is it happening with him?

I do think we'll continue to be competitive, but you're right in that if we are this terrible at closing on in-state recruits, we have ZERO shot at taking the next as a program.

We can throw out all the excuses in the world, but those are just excuses, even if valid. Our roster isn't helped by excuses.

I know this is Moorhead's first full recruiting class, but Hugh Freeze finished #8 in recruiting with his first class. I know he cheated his ass off to do so, but the point remains. Being new at a school doesn't always mean that recruiting takes years of building relationships.

1. Cross wasn't coming to State. Too many personal things involved. It wasn't going to happen.
2. Turnage has been committed to Bama for a long time. That's on the last staff more than this one.
3. Mingo wasn't recruited as a WR by the last staff. They barely even recruited him. Got in late on that one.
4. Jackson doesn't know what he wants. His cousin played at State and we never made him a priority. Mullen again....
5. We missed on Hall in all likelihood.
6. Dean was leaving MS regardless. Nothing we can do there.
7. Same with Young. He was looking to leave out.
8. Plumlee is no superstar. I'll be surprised if he starts for UGA. If he does, it'll have to be safety because he's not a CB even with his straight-line speed- Them hips though
9. Handy, where do I start. He's not even the best defensive player at Hattiesburg. He wasn't at Perry Central either. He's got a lot of baggage.

We missed on one, maybe two guys with this staff. They're not miracle workers. And lets keep an eye on a couple of these because they're not as solid as some people think.

Again, everything you just said makes sense, but it doesn't help our roster. I'm not looking to blame someone. I am simply saying that we CANNOT take the next step when missing on this many in-state players. We just cannot. We've got to start from that fact & reverse engineer from there.

If this year's class concludes the way it looks as if it will, it's a huge missed opportunity, regardless of the whys.

You mention Cross having personal things involved but it's still a missed opportunity regardless.

You mention Dean & Young not considering Mississippi schools. Why? A missed opportunity.

One of my biggest pet peeves with MSU fans is how we say it isn't a loss if the kid didn't show legit interest in us. It's a miss if it's an in-state kid regardless because that HAS to be our honey hole & we cannot compete at the highest level without landing the best Mississippi players.

Regardless of the reasons, this year's in-state class is unacceptable & a miss opportunity.

[Commercecomet24]

Listen to Cooter and just wait to see what happens come December. There's a few surprises that'll be here before it's all said and done. Patience, Joe Moorhead is gonna be the most successful coach we've ever had.

[Todd4State]

Serious question. Is this class considered "loaded" because Ole Miss thought they were going to get a lot of them? I've found that to usually be the case.

Bottom line is Moorhead is a heck of a good guy and a heck of a good football coach. And I think we have a lot of good coaches on staff. Question is though is he and the staff willing to do some of the cutthroat things you have to do to be successful recruiting in the SEC, which I would think is unlike recruiting he has had to deal with in any other conference he has coached in? Yes, Hugh Freeze was successful recruiting right off the bat but we all know he had no reservations bending and breaking rules on a routine basis and really had no ethical standards about it whatsoever. Certainly don't want to go there but its just a question? Sorry, but I can't help but think we went from big time leader on Emery to not even in consideration because other people got involved and other things got involved. And the closer you get to signing day and the higher rating your prospect gets, it only gets worse.

[msstate7]

Dannis Jackson and Mingo... are you two seriously gonna play at OM? Corral, whether he stays or not, is not a good qb. The OC will bolt once this talent leaves. Come play for Moorhead with key/mayden/shrader

As long as we stay within "guidelines" and do the same as the blue bloods, I'm fine with it. Tsun stepped out of bounds because they had no choice lest they remain #2 in MS and a SEC bottom bottom feeder. No matter how many mascot changes or image do overs they attempt, they will always be Ole Miss which requires "special" crootin'.

I've been told to watch what I say bc recruits read this board... figured I'd make a plea just in case haha

[Irondawg]

Why are we not taking 1-2 JUCO corners? That seems to be a big area of need for us. Our lack of playmakers in the secondary going forward should be a big corcern. Hoping Murphy develops into one but not sure after that

I guess the question is Coach JoMo fine with it? I know we were very much handcuffed on the recruiting front while Croom was here (not that we had much to offer on the field anyway).

I thought we were looking at one from Northwest MS CC?

It might depend in part on Peters injury situation. If he has to redshirt all of a sudden both of our CB's are coming back. Granted, Peters would be coming off of rehab and we don't even really know what the injury is yet.

[Bothrops]

Just had an epiphany. We are going to sign one of top big receivers in the state. There's no way OM gets all of them with the unsightly display that's happening on that campus. No one with any dignity will do that.

They are not going to sign all five of the WR committeemen. My the end of the season the light bulb is going to go off in the heads of many of the Ole Miss commitments.

[Cooterpoot]

We already have a commitment from the top WR in MS. Mingo better wake up and realize they're going to drop him in at DB, not WR.

[BuckyIsAB****]

If you think Jarrian Jones is better than Mingo you have either 1. Never seen them play, 2. Never seen them go 1 on 1, and 3. didnt watch the game they played against one another friday night.

I like JDub and I think he is a SEC Wr but not a DB. Mingo made him look pretty average friday night

I don't think he's better. I know he's better. Jones goes full time WR and he's the best in MS. But Mingo is welcome to come to Starkville and compete with him and prove me wrong. In fact, I challenge him, I dare him to come to State. ;)

[Lord McBuckethead]

Pulling Mingo would be a great move by the staff. Hopefully someone will notice our offense and get on board. Is our QB commit going to bring any top notch talent with him?

[Pit Bull]

I have a feeling Jaylon Reed is going to be a pretty good corner for us when he comes in. Had a very nice offer sheet and Malik Heath said at the BAMA/MS Allstar game that Reed covered him better than any other corner during practices. They had quite a competition going on down there. My biggest concern at the moment is RB. We lose Aeris this year. We could lose Hill after next year. And I see no promising backs coming up to replace them. We need 2 stud RBs ASAP!!!

[Ifyouonlyknew]

Expect us to get an OV from Eric Gray.

[Cooterpoot]

If we can pull Gray and Tyree next round, we'd be loaded.

[Ifyouonlyknew]

If we can pull Gray and Tyree next round, we'd be loaded.

I'm not ready to say we get Gray yet but getting him for an OV is the next step. I think it comes down to MSU & TN. Tyree is planning on being back for the Florida game. You don't drive from Virginia to MS 4 times in 6 months if you don't have some serious interest. I know he really loves Huff & that's who he has his best relationship with.

[msbulldog]

Grey just needs to visit Michigan in December, before he signs.

I don't think Gray goes to Michigan, he is however showing interest in Tenn and that's where he probably ends up. He hasn't shown us any interest for a long time. If he OV's State I will be pleasantly surprised.

He's stated that he's still been in contact with MSU & that we will likely get an OV. Again I'm not ready to say he's ours or anything because I do know TN is on him very hard. Just letting it be known that we are still recruiting him very hard & he's listening.

Chris Tyree 2020 RB from Virginia

[Irondawg]

So here’s a bit more information about Gray. Given that Michigan has committed two other running backs. It’s probably safe to assume he won’t sign there unless they are talking about somebody playing other positions. Plus it’s a long way from home.

He’s taken 3 official visits: Michigan, penn state and ole miss. He officially visits TN next weekend. They also don’t have rb pledged for next year. If we can survive the weekend there without a commit and then get an OV then we would get his last OV which would be a benefit.

No telling how it will play out but at least we are in position to have a few timeline advantages.

It would be huge to get Gray to campus. With that said I think it's more likely he takes his final OV to Ark, they have built a solid relationship with him

[Ifyouonlyknew]

He said he has 2 more OV left & they'll be OM Bama or MSU for those 2. With Bama having Keiland Robinson on board & looking good with Trey Sanders while also recruiting Wandale Robinson for a all purpose role. I think OM & MSU are his last 2 visits. TN MSU OM Bama & Michigan are the only schools he's talking to.

[Ifyouonlyknew]

So here’s a bit more information about Gray. Given that Michigan has committed two other running backs. It’s probably safe to assume he won’t sign there unless they are talking about somebody playing other positions. Plus it’s a long way from home.

He’s taken 3 official visits: Michigan, penn state and ole miss. He officially visits TN next weekend. They also don’t have rb pledged for next year. If we can survive the weekend there without a commit and then get an OV then we would get his last OV which would be a benefit.

No telling how it will play out but at least we are in position to have a few timeline advantages.

A few things

1. The last RB Michigan committed is going to play Slot WR for them.

2. He hasn't taken an OV to OM

3. No one is expecting him to commit to TN this weekend. If he flips it's likely later on in the process.

We do need to get him on campus next weekend or for the Auburn game

[Irondawg]

Thanks. I thought the OM visit was an official

[msbulldog]

It would be huge to get Gray to campus. With that said I think it's more likely he takes his final OV to Ark, they have built a solid relationship with him

They can sell playing time and take the "you can take us to the next level" angle. OM uses this all the time.

No way he goes to Arkansas with all the uncertainty there. 8 originally said Arkansas would be our main competition, but JoMo would win that race, I feel certain of it.

Nobody said he would sign with Arkansas....most likely with Tennessee. If he?s not on MSU?s campus soon for an OV we have no shot

Is Sharpe a JUCO guy who was supposed to contribute next year? If not, he would probably red shirt next year. If so, this is not as much ?bad news? as u think...unless of course....he does not come back full speed after his rehab.

LT- Eiland
LG- Reese

So Burdine is expected on campus Saturday (as is Derek Hall, Mingo, others). I believe he plans to commit next week. It's either us or Mizzou and we didn't do ourselves any favors last weekend. We need a stellar performance this weekend to make believers out of these recruits.

Wow yea that's big. Need a beatdown similar to the A&M game in 2014.

[Cooterpoot]

This is the biggest weekend of recruiting we've had in a long time. Really important to fill up the place and play well. It think those listed are going to be tough pulls, so we need our best.

Burdine's announcement date is Oct. 1.

I agree. We have the advantage of the last visit plus Starkville is an easy 4 hour drive from Slidell. Only way we lose him is if we look like a total train wreck this weekend (sorta like we looked last weekend). We need his commitment to get recruiting momentum back on track.

[Cooterpoot]

So you are right either way huh? Well played...You're learning

Not really. There's been some positive stuff the last couple weeks with him. I won't be surprised if we get him. But he's been a MO lean due to family connections. I just choose not to flip because this weekend is a big weekend.

I mean you just rephrased the same point lol. If he chooses MO you'll say "See I was right, he was MO lean and we didn't turn him" If he picks State you'll say "See I was right, he was a MO lean but this weekend we turned him."

Dawg-gone-dogs is right, your statement is no different to me saying "I think emery signs with UGA, but if we get him it's because our Staff turned him". We can do it with any recruit whether you have insider info or not. If you have insider info like "Burdine wants his mom to meet T-Buck, if she likes him he'll commit to us" then include that, but a generic "He's a X school lean but we have a shot at flipping him" is a statement everyone on this board can make and defend themselves over after the player in question signs. Not trying to call you out or start a beef or say you have no insider info, I just found the exchange funny

No, I'm saying I believe he chooses MO. I said the same thing a month ago. I could flip but I'm just going to hang with what I've said. Just know opinions are split on him.

Didn't say he was desperate, but BAMA, LSU, AUB will come into our state looking for a few top cream players they specifically need. And usually, they get them. Mullen did spend about 9 years in Mississippi.....so it is familiar with him. If he has a particular need, I'm sure he will try. Saban seems to get one or two every year.

I don't consider that as part of what I look at.

Just look at the player. His acceleration, feet, burst, etc.

All high school defenses suck. That should never used as a borameter to evaluate players.

[Cooterpoot]

I wasn’t that impressed other than his speed. He didn’t run over people or make them miss. He followed his blocking and used his speed. Looks like a straight line runner to me. He’s being recruited as a safety by some schools. But at this point he’s what we’ve got left and could possibly play DB if RB doesn’t work out.

Witherspoon looks pretty damn elite from film and this year's stats. I think he's new to RB and therefore underevaluated. 247 didn't even have a profile for him a couple weeks ago. His recruiting is starting to pick up. Just got a Louisville offer last night.

Posting his stats again.

Last week:

Lee Witherspoon rushed for 359 yards and five touchdowns on 13 carries, leading visiting Class 4A, No. 10-ranked North Jackson to a 49-7 over St. John Paul II in Madison.

Season:

39 carries, 994 yards, 17 TD.. 25.4ypc

.....and his next best offer is Tulane....smh

[Cooterpoot]

This is the first year he's ever played RB. Elite? Not right now. Ceiling is high though.

[Really Clark?]

.....and his next best offer is Tulane....smh

His recruiting is just starting to really pick up. You have acknowledge that it may take a little while for teams to get film on him in his first year at RB

Louisville offered last night. I don't expect it to be his last P5 offer.

Yes. There is still plenty of time for blue bloods to come in, get his attention and sweep him away.

[Dawg-gone-dawgs]

I noticed Maurice Hampton is being CB'd to OM and it is not by the usual OM homers so it might actually have legs. I was hoping we could him. What happened with that situation? Are we still on him?

25.4 YPC?!?!?!?!

He's either playing against very inferior competition or is the next Adrian Peterson

[Irondawg]

he looks good but the competition on the videos is not that impressive which makes it harder to judge

[Ifyouonlyknew]

Witherspoon plays 4A Alabama football. He was also selected to the MS/AL game so we'll get a good look at him then. I have a feeling he's about to go on a run of P5 offers. Hopefully if this is who they want they can lock him up. I do know that Eric Gray is coming back again for the 2nd straight weekend so we'll see where that leads. I also wouldn't be surprised if Ealy wasn't back on campus for his 3rd game this year.

[Hambone]

Well finally some good news rolling in.

[msbulldog]

Hell if we were on 247, I'd give you a up vote IYOK.

[Commercecomet24]

Excellent!

[HoopsDawg]

Damn it, why have we not offered Drummond from EMCC yet? He's better than everyone on our roster.

[Bothrops]

I think Witherspoon is elite as an athlete, possibly RB as well. He has elite speed. I hope we can get him, but it won't be easy. Agree on Drummond.

Are you saying Gray was at the Florida game? I didn't see his name on any of the lists. That's great news if true.

Yes he was there.

Just watched his tape, he reminds me a lot of Desean Jackson... if Jackson ran a 4.7 forty.

Just an update on Lee Witherspoon who will be on campus today. Last night he had 11 carries 373 yards & 7 TD's. Also had a 57 yard punt return for 6. In 6 games he has 1494 rushing yards & 26 rushing TD's on 65 carries (23ypc). That's not counting special teams & defensive scores. I'm not advocating for this kid because Eric Gray would still be #1 on my board but I'm starting to see why Huff is so intrigued with this kid. We'll see how the RB position shakes out.

Thanks man. You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Ifyouonlyknew again.

Insane stats

Agreed regardless of competition. Would be a great pickup

[Todd4State]

I ran into a guy that takes people to the airport in Jackson. He said he just took Byron Young from West Jones who told the driver he was committing to Florida. FWIW.

Rather Florida than bama

So which recruits saw us tonight? Would love to capitalize in recruiting

Witherspoon was there I'm pretty sure.

Gray was supposed to come but didn't make it.

Stinks, I think tonight would've really helped with him

My son is buddies with Byron I'll see what I can find out.

Chris Akporoghene was there. Only reason I know that is because I saw his name tag on the IMG back pack he had

[Cooterpoot]

The only way Young doesn’t go to Bama is if they pull his offer.

[Dawg-gone-dawgs]

Profound.....smh again

[Cooterpoot]

Profound.....smh again

They aren’t pulling his offer. He’s the best DL in MS in a deep year. He’s not going to FL. Pickering has a higher ceiling but Young would play for us year one. Pickering is a redshirt.

I guess we need to start talking recruiting in Braille for you.

[Hambone]

I thought there were rumors of some big things happening this weekend??

[Cooterpoot]

Nope. Just important visitors.

[BuckyIsAB****]

The Witherspoon kid is playing lower competition but lets not act like 4A Bama HS ball is like Pillow academy or somn like that. That kid can flat out fly

[Cooterpoot]

Witherspoon is a 10.8 100M, so he can go.

[Lord McBuckethead]

Let's go ahead and get this guy. I think he is putting up the numbers, has the speed, and knows what to do when you get in the open. How is his pass blocking, seriously?

[Jack Lambert]

It's getting close to the 1st signing period and all we have is 17 commitments. Should we be worried?

[chef dixon]

IYOK if you aint busy and care to share, I think we are due for a summary of who we are looking at hard and how you see us finishing.

+1.

[DeputyDawg94]

If this staff doesn't get a legit RB in this class could Marcus Murphy make the switch?
