2019 Recruiting Thread

[msu15]

ETA: I have noticed Joe appears to be going the lighter/quicker route for Olinemen.

I believe that's a product of being a RPO offense.

[Pit Bull]

And Aeris should've started all season also.

And this was a major mistake

[BhamDawg205]

Part of that is scheme why we gave up less sacks. We normally always kept a TE or RB or both in protection with Mullen.

Also don't know who making the call, Huff or JoMo, on starting RB. Aries is an every down (complete) RB. We could plainly see Hill wasn't ready and pass protection suffered. Hill should have been the change of pace RB.

[SmokeyDawg]

Although still off topic: Like the post you're replying to, it has to do with scheme. In our offense, Hill is a better fit. If the rb is a home run threat that takes at least 1, probably 2 defenders out of the equation (if it works correctly, same as blocking that guy).

As far as OL recruitment, in Mullen's offense we ran a lot of zone blocking schemes with the passing game. 6'8 350 can develop in that system, but the current offense works better with agility guys that can change direction. Each has there own advantage but you have to give it the time to develop. I think it's smart bc we have had the physicality to get us close, but adding scheme and agility is the best way for us to take another step forward.

[Alphadog2017]

So let?s understand this logic...
We bitch and complain that we dont recruit big time players.
So we go after and are the lead dog for one of the top RB in the country for a few months
We dont get the kid and we complain that we wasted our time and shouldnt be going after these kids
So We get 2 RB that may very well turn out to be 2soild pick ups and we bitch about that

At the expense of other 4* star recruits ? Please name them ...


Guess we are wasting our time on the Chris Tyree the 2020 5* RB
You the real MVP! Well said brother.

[msudawglb]

You the real MVP! Well said brother.

I think everyone is upset because they feel we could have landed Gray if we were all in and made him the priority from the beginning.

[Doggie_Style]

I think everyone is upset because they feel we could have landed Gray if we were all in and made him the priority from the beginning.

Exactly....for 2019 everyone was saying we were only taking one RB and that would be Emery. It felt like we quit recruiting Gray. For 2020 we have a similar situation with 5* Tyree and 4* Marks. This time we are not holding back on either. Hopefully Marks commits to us soon and we can stay in the hunt for Tyree as the process plays out.

[msstate7]

I think everyone is upset because they feel we could have landed Gray if we were all in and made him the priority from the beginning.

If true, fail by the staff. Not sure it's true though bc just like pulling emery from LSU was gonna be tough, so would pulling gray from Tennessee

[Cooterpoot]

I think everyone is upset because they feel we could have landed Gray if we were all in and made him the priority from the beginning.

Gray never was interested.

[Cooterpoot]

Watching the all star game. Jack Harris and Cunningham are impressive (as you can be in this rain).

[msstate7]

Just turned it there. There no offensive talent in this game? Lol

[Doggie_Style]

Gray never was interested.

just not true....Gray was on campus numerous times during the spring and Huff visited him in Tn also...then we went all in on Emery and he never really gave us a second look.....but that?s history, let?s pull Marks and/or Tyree and we will be in great shape

[Cooterpoot]

im telling you, Gray had just about zero interest. Had nothing to do with Emery.

[Cooterpoot]

Just turned it there. There no offensive talent in this game? Lol

Flooding. And a running clock.

[ShotgunDawg]

Any rumors about the visits?

[Lord McBuckethead]

Yeah, I was expecting a couple commits and flips our way today. MSU is trending with our targets right now.

[Ifyouonlyknew]

Yeah, I was expecting a couple commits and flips our way today. MSU is trending with our targets right now.

I said earlier this week that we could get commitments this week & they not go public this weekend. We only have 3 uncommitted guys on campus & we know Ealy isn't doing anything anytime soon.

[Lord McBuckethead]

Yep, why show your hand. Let the other schools keep wasting time for the next week+. I always thought it would ve better for a commit to stay completely quite about a commit and/or flip. Wasting other teams time is the best thing they could do to help #hailstate. That is, unless you are so highly recruited, your decision could bring ither key players with you.

[defiantdog]

I said earlier this week that we could get commitments this week & they not go public this weekend. We only have 3 uncommitted guys on campus & we know Ealy isn't doing anything anytime soon.
Ealy is either going to the MLB or Clemson.

[Ari Gold]

We would have taken Grays commit at any time if he wanted to commit . We were recruiting him as hard as anyone was based on his interest in us .
All this shit about only on RB and we chased away other Good RB is false and stupid

[SmokeyDawg]

Just saw Cross has been bumped to top 100 prospect. Obviously he's still the same player he was but would be a big get.

[Hambone]

That means Cross is going to Georgia or Bama.... *

[HoopsDawg]

Just saw Cross has been bumped to top 100 prospect. Obviously he's still the same player he was but would be a big get.

Cross and big K. Johnson would give us a pair of highly rated tackles. Need to find and develop a good center.

[KOdawg1]

Ealy is either going to the MLB or Clemson.
MLB yes, Clemson no.

[MetEdDawg]

Here's how you fill a hole: go get Asa Martin. Decided he's going to transfer from Auburn. Not sure how much Auburn will restrict him but he would be worth talking to. He's from an area where we've had a lot of successful kids come from.

[HoopsDawg]

pathetic how the AU coaches blew his redshirt. Worse than Moorhead with KT.

[Ifyouonlyknew]

I think Pendley could be that type. James Jackson is working at Center also. After Darryl Williams next year he could possibly be the guy.

[msbulldog]

pathetic how the AU coaches blew his redshirt. Worse than Moorhead with KT.

He still has his redshirt, he can use it to sit out his transfer year. Courtland is closer to Starkvegas than Auburn.

[BrunswickDawg]

What Marietta did in getting all that talent is just stupid. The fact they lost 1st round this year cracks me up.
Marietta has had a crootin network for years. It got set up under Dexter Wood in the late 80s and built his teams. He then took the idea to Buford and built a power house. I could tell you some stories that would make Ole Miss proud.

[sscjr1]

Charles Cross in the boat!!

[Hambone]

Who’s next?

[Dawgology]

Charles Cross in the boat!!

Hot damn!

[Doggie_Style]

Who’s next?

So there’s Pendley, Bedford, Raydar Jones, Hall and maybe TJ Jones (WR) still on the board... Hall and Raydar visit next week hopefully...if Bedford is interested he should get in the boat soon...Pendley visits USC next weekend so he probably waits till later

[msu15]

As much as he's been on our campus, yes he is.

Not with OM. Just gotta make sure he visits us next weekend

[KOdawg1]

Not with OM. Just gotta make sure he visits us next weekend

Hopefully he shows. Hall's recruitment has been weird.

[HoopsDawg]

So at this point, we hope to land Pendley and Bedford to close out our O-line recruiting. Need to get Hall to give us a LB. Find a Juco DT. And I would love to sign Raydar Jones. Process 1 commit, and maybe find a surprise somewhere, and that's a wrap for 2019.

[Turfdawg67]

https://twitter.com/derick_hall5/status/1071881118624948224

Is he a State lean? Hard to worry if he wasn't coming here anyway. That said, I'm sure his visit to Oxford was $pecial, and could $way $omeone their way.

Most think Bedford is ours, not sure on Pendley, some feel good about Hall but I don't, Keonte Schad is the DT we're targeting, and I think Raydar Jones ends up at OM, but he's a Feb signee I believe, so we have time.

[Ifyouonlyknew]

We feel great on Pendley. Really good on Bedford. Schad hasn't received an offer I'm not sure he gets 1. As long as Hall shows up this weekend I expect him in our class. Raydar is an EE he signs next week.

[KOdawg1]

You think he's OM's to lose?

You think we can get Raydar. I just love adding speed to the roster.

[Ifyouonlyknew]

You think we can get Raydar. I just love adding speed to the roster.

Most assume OM Bc his sister goes there & it's close to home. It wouldn't surprise me if he ended up there but he's always had a good relationship with our staff. Getting him in for an OV is big even if just mid week. This staff has proven if they can get kids on campus they have a legit chance.

[maroonmania]

Will be interesting to see if we've nailed down the Brooks commitment. Not sure why we would be in danger of him flipping to Arkansas unless his primary goal is just lots of playing time as a true FR. That program is just devoid of talent at the moment.

I think the Brooks wavering was overblown. Family has been set on MSU for a while. He's enjoyed being recruited but behind the scenes it wasn't near the drama.

If we pull Jones and Hall, awwwww shhhiiiiiiiiittttt.

[SailingDawg]

Apparently Derick Hall visited OM this weekend. I thought he was leaning MSU having not received much follow-up from Auburn, but Luke's a Gulfport boy so someone may be pushing him a bit. Anyone heard anything else on him? He didn't have a good senior season.

Sorry, didn't see these posts until after I posted. It's been weird @KOdawg1 because he didn't dominate on the field like he should have this year.

[Cooterpoot]

Hall played out of position this year. He’s better than his numbers. He’s a smart kid. He’s not wasting his career in Oxford.

[Doggie_Style]

Courtesy visit I suspect. His Mom grew up with Luke. I won't worry unless he doesn't visit.

[Bothrops]

What's happening on the Charles Moore front?

[Coursesuper]

What position should Hall play? He's kinda light.

[Ifyouonlyknew]

What position should Hall play? He's kinda light.

He's a OLB & he's 220lbs.

[Coursesuper]

He's a OLB & he's 220lbs.

I've watched him play a couple of times this year, I'm very surprised he's 220, he's tall but he doesn't look or play like 220. And Gulfport lined him up at OLB most of the time when I saw him.

[Cary Hudson's little bro]

You have to project what he can be...he'll be 6-4 240-250 in 2-3 years and a clone of KJ Wright, hopefully.

[Coursesuper]

You never know, but he didn't blow me away when I saw him, that said you never know what they will do when they get 10 more around them that can GO. Some of them step up and go get it some of them just don't have it inside to let it go. Did anyone here see him play Ocean Springs I think his stats were very good that game?

[Interpolation_Dawg_EX]

What's happening on the Charles Moore front?

This....something up?

[Dawg-gone-dawgs]

This....something up?

It has been mentioned that he is most likely to flip than anyone we have. I think that is typical rumor mill BS that is spewed this time every year. I think he is all dawg.

[Doggie_Style]

so the Raydar Jones visit won't happen afterall...any chance we can get an in-home with him before signing day?

[Ifyouonlyknew]

so the Raydar Jones visit won't happen afterall...any chance we can get an in-home with him before signing day?

They can always go in home today or tomorrow before he leaves for the all star game. With him not OV I don't like our chances though.

Moore is just tripping. He'll sign with us. If he was flipping, he'd have already done it.

Kinda like Malik Heath last year. He seemed to be talking to everyone but us, but after he had his fun, he signed with the good guys (too bad he didn't qualify tho)

[Interpolation_Dawg_EX]

A little OT, but any more leads on where Tony Hughes lands?

[Irondawg]

best case maybe we can talk jones into holding out till Feb. I have no idea how many times he's been to our campus already

MSU

I agree Dawg-gone, total BS. He has been one of our biggest recruiters and he has been on campus constantly.

[NickoeWatersHedges]

Just to throw this out there...Bama just gained 2 more DB commits this weekend one 5 star Safety and one 4 star corner. Including Turnage thats three 4 star corners they have just in this class..hopefully TBuck staying on Brandon hard and the playing time aspect will get him looking to the maroon and white.

Including Turnage thats three 4 star corners they have just in this class..hopefully TBuck staying on Brandon hard and the playing time aspect will get him looking to the maroon and white.

If I'm Turnage, this whole thing is two fold. One, I have to look at the fact they have 5 secondary guys on their commit list including 2 other corners beside me. And they will get more next year that are 4 and 5 stars. I get not shying away from competition, but that's going to be tough to break in even though he's really really good.

Two, I have to look at the other MS guys that have had rough times at Alabama. Yeah Raekwon was a stud. But Lashley and Knott are doing virtually nothing and I feel completely sure of the fact they would be making a positive impact right now at MSU. You come to MSU and you can see the difference in the secondary this year with the growth. And you can be part of something special with the rest of these Mississippi kids coming to MSU and making a difference.

Turnage would be huge for us. He's the kind of secondary player we don't get. Those guys go to LSU and Bama. Would be big time for our program to add him.

[KOdawg1]

So does Turnage just want to get out of Oxford? It'd be hilarious if he decomitted from Bama and chose us, sending a message that the university in his hometown wasn't even in his top 2.

We need to get him on a visit though.

[Ifyouonlyknew]

I expect Turnage to sign with Bama.

[Ari Gold]

I expect Turnage to sign with Bama.

I agree

I expect Moore to cause plenty of drama & heartburn for fans. I expect Moore to sign with MSU.

Has to be a couple of those every year.

Also agree.
I predict that Pickering signs next week and Moore does in Feb.

JoMo just rang the bell. Who is it?

I bet the kid ends up at USM plays QB and Baseball.
And yes he is talented enough to play In the SEC just probably not at QB.

[Doggie_Style]

so what do you think our number is? We currently have 4 that will likely sign next week...Washington says he won't sign until Feb. so he's likely out also and we all are hopeful that Cunningham qualifies.....if Bedford makes it we have five

Anyone else listen to Bo Bounds and feel like he shits on our program consistently? When Cross committed he said nice to get but they will struggle to hold him to signing day. He seems to pump Ole Miss recruiting hard and they are going to land everyone they offer basically. Maybe he is just trying to be unbiased and cant toe the line well, but it is frustrating to listen too.

He's just like Troy Aikman is with Dak. Bo is an MSU fan but, along with MSU money & sponsors, he also needs OM money & sponsors to survive. Thus, in an effort to sound unbiased, he goes a little far the other way.

[Commercecomet24]

I've known Plumlee and his family for years. They are not fans of unm AT ALL! If for some reason he doesn't go to UGA, he will be at usm playing football and baseball. The kid really doesn't want to give up baseball yet.

[Commercecomet24]

With what this staff is doing and the plan they have in place for recruiting, in the near future we will be starting 4 stars or high 3 star players at just about every position on the field

[Cooterpoot]

When are you guys going to stop listening to Bounds? He plays the shit out of the State fans. Just stop listening. There's so much more out there with podcasts etc. to listen to that sack of monkey crap.
I've asked on Plumlee and he hasn't been dropped. Was also told, the MLB scouts watched him during football season, so that's picking up a little (I don't see it being serious enough though).
He could be a star at USM if he wanted to be. Tulane as well. But he's got a boat load of offers and I can promise you, OM isn't getting in on that action. And people forget, he's got a high ACT score. He can go to school for free without athletics. He's a free ride for any baseball program.

So the question I have is this. Why not MSU? No he probably would be a S here but could 0lay both football and Baseball here. To go to USM to play QB is pretty stupid. All that being said I still expect him at Georgia

[Commercecomet24]

CC I'm sure he could play BB for us I've read he's pretty good.

I believe he could as well. Great speed good arm. Hard worker, kids a workout warrior!

I hope I am wrong but I believe Pendley was our last commit before next week's signing. I think we will sign 18-20 prospects and have some work to do to get to 25 in February.

based on all public and private data I can find...we only had a few guys left that we were hoping to get aboard next week (Raydar, Schad, Hall, Bedford) and it looks like we lost all except maybe Bedford. We have no confirmed visitors for this weekend. Things could change.

I hope I am wrong but I believe Pendley was our last commit before next week's signing. I think we will sign 18-20 prospects and have some work to do to get to 25 in February.

We've got 23 commits right now I believe. Bedford is a done deal, so 24. We'll also be picking a late guy or two. We won't have trouble getting to 25.

[vv83]

Longo out.. does that help at all with Mingo and Jackson?

[Commercecomet24]

This is correct. I'm expecting Bedford to commit by the end of the week.

[MetEdDawg]

So then realistically who would be the final spot or two?

My Bama folks seem to think they are going after at least one other CB, so does that potentially make Turnage a legitimate target? I know Jarrian is going after him hard.

Can we really pull Hall? He had a good visit at Auburn from what I understand.

What are the realistic options to pull at the end?

[Ari Gold]

Bedford
Hall
And if a couple of guys we can’t turn down want to join they will
Numbers won’t be an issue

[msbulldog]

We've got 23 commits right now I believe. Bedford is a done deal, so 24. We'll also be picking a late guy or two. We won't have trouble getting to 25.

Don't forget Cooter, Richardson is likely being moved. We can find a lot of diamonds between now and February. Remember last year the guys that didn't sign early popped up everywhere. Rep Given.

[Ifyouonlyknew]

Looks like I was wrong on Plumlee. He's not going to be an EE & UGA is changing his offer to a gray shirt. If he decides to sign early I figure it's OM. If he decides to wait until February we'll have a chance.

If Plumlee is available we should put our best guy on him ASAP.

He could play QB, WR, or DB. He is a gamer. Its our own fault that we never got in the game seriously with him but now we may have a chance.

Ok someone is gonna have to impose some wisdom on me. I don?t know this kid at all but his highlight film makes him look like a straight up gamer. That boy has some mad wheels and has better touch on some of his passes than I saw out of Fitz all year. And he was getting pounded at times (his oline was giving him no time). Is he just too small to play QB? He looks like a white Kylar Murray.

[BuckyIsAB****]

Thats a pretty good comparison. He is taller than Murray right now. Hes not a pure passer but when a play needs to be made he can thread the needle.

I am so glad he is gone because he was a nightmare to play against. He carried that team. He played against us last year both ways with a broke non throwing hand. Only QB I have ever seen wear a cast and still play.

He is Johnny Manziel like

[NickoeWatersHedges]

Love to hear that on Plumlee, if he still signs with UGA that'll be a head scratcher. Wasnt he looking at North Carolina at one point? That seems like if Longo has any brains he would try to rekindle that relationship, could be a good fit for the kid too. Question for the ones more connected than I, how do y'all think we addressed the lack of elite skill players on the perimeter for us? You obviously have to guys that can make plays in space with the spread scheme, are we doing enough to inject guys like that in our offense for '19? Payton is a contributor next year IMO, are Torbor or Pruitt? Lastly, are Jerrigan or Jackson still in play? Ill hang up and listen.....

I think we are counting on big leaps from some guys on campus (Jason, Guidry, Thomas, Williams, Mitchell) and thinking maybe Payton can contribute some next year.

I will say this, if we get Mingo he could start on the first day of practice. Idk about Jernigan or Jackson. I dont think Jernigan is that good anyway but thats just me

Thanks Bucky... I was starting to think I was crazy... I think people forget what has made the best college qbs the last decade. Manziel, Tebow, Dak, Baker, Kyler, even Hurts in the SEC championship. Freakin gamers that had holes in their talent and all of them passed over except for Tebow. Give me one of these guys anyday.

He is also tough as nails. He probably carried it 15-20 times a game and never got injured enough to leave the game.

He ran a 2 pt play against us a year ago and Brett Favre underhand pitched it to a guy in the endzone, kid didnt catch it but I knew then he was a baller

He was originally a 4 star and they bumped him down.

This. He got the typical treatment a lower end 4 star gets when they commit to MSU. They get the bump down to a high end 3 star.

It would be interesting to see how a team's 4- or 5-year recruiting rank average might correlate with their post-season rank. I bet our final rank would be higher than expected in light of our recruiting rank because of our under-ranked small school prospects and the MSU-associated rank drop.

[Cooterpoot]

Thats not what one of our coaches said but hey another one may have told you something different.

I've known the kid for a long time. I'm just telling you the situation told to me. Same with the OM talk. That was basically what they said. Dan Mullen offered Plumlee. Jo isn't who offered him. But State was one of his first P5 offers. He could go to an option program and play QB there maybe, but he's not a good passer. He's chasing baseball more than football too. He knows he's never going to be an NFL guy. Marcus Murphy is a better safety. So is the kid we redshirted.
If he want's to play, actually touch the field next year, then OM might be it for P5 programs.

What's funny is how much recruiting rankings matter to people; me included.

It's just amazing to me that, with the heavy likely hood that Ealy never plays a down of college football, that Ole Miss fans are more proud of their recruiting because of the ranking Ealy provides.

Not sure about you guys, but I'm proud when we get players that will help us win games, At least that is what is logical.

I'd love Ealy to flip, but I just laugh at myself & others that get excited about it.

[ShotgunDawg]

Here is what is funny about Ealy.

If Ealy flipped to MSU, MSU's recruiting class would be ranked 13th in the country & OM's would fall to 24. All for a guy that likely won't play football.

It's odd to me that his rating isn't being affected by his pro baseball prospects when factors like grades risk and years to contribute typically factor into any given prospect's rating so heavily.

The part that I love the most is the spin zone that Ole Miss fans (and fans in general) put out when kids like Ealy commit/flip to the rival school. "Oh he'll never make it to [insert school name], he is going pro in baseball, he won't ever make the grades, etc.". But when they commit to their school its great.

I have coached against the kid for a few years, and Im not saying Im an expert but he has made plenty enough throws to show me he can throw it when he needs to.

He could play QB here. He is every bit as good as the Shrader kid. And yes Mullen offered him but when Moorhead was hired we somehow lost him in transition. One of our own coaches told me to my face we kinda missed the boat on him. That appears to have changed with UGA offering him a grayshirt

I'm not getting into it. You're being a homer again. I'm telling you, he's not close to being a good SEC QB. He's a run first guy in HS. Dan Mullen, Mr. Run First QB guru, didn't even want him as a QB. He'd be a marginal SEC hitter in baseball as well. Not one single SEC team was going to suit him up at QB on a regular basis- Not one. And you don't want to get into the "how well you know him" argument. He in no way compares to what we've got coming in this year.
He's a really good, smart, athlete.

Any update on if Hall will visit this weekend? Got to think if he doesn't show up, we aren't getting him.

[StarkVegasSteve]

It's either Ealy, Mingo, or Dean. Lots of smoke on all three right now.

The Sharts would burn the Vaught if we got all 3. Hell they may burn it if we get one

Hall is going to make a mistake. One he'll regret later.

After watching him a couple of times I'm still not convinced, looks the part just didn't play like it.

You are entitled to your opinion, hell you may be his Dad. I dont care.

And hell no I am not a homer for him I strongly dislike oak grove and everything to do with them but Im telling you my thoughts. Yeah hes a run first guy because he was the best athlete on the field in 9 out of 10 games he played in HS. Mullen offered him, what he wanted him as I cant say. And neither can you unless you are Danny Two Gloves dad too.

Im pretty sure we told him he would have a chance to play QB. All it takes is 1. And as far as comparing him to Shrader, I will take 6A public school ball over private school ball in SC anyday. I hope Shrader is great but Plumlee is great too.

OM?

Hall > Auburn 🦅

[Cooterpoot]

OM?

Not what I'm saying. I'm just saying he's obviously let some people make decisions for him and he'll regret it later. He may go to OM, at this point, I have no clue. I still think he'd much rather be somewhere else. If he could sign with AU today, I believe he would. I don't believe he's got the offer some think he's got with them. It just sucks when other people try to force their opinions on kids for their own sakes.

I'd rather have Mingo than Plumlee.

[BuckyIsAB****]

I'd rather have Mingo than Plumlee.

Agreed. 100 percent

Agreed. 100 percent

Honestly wondering if anyone can think of an example where we flipped someone like Mingo from the plantation?

I dont know but I do know that Mingo isnt like many up there. He'd be a good fit at MSU but they can sell sending WRs to the league, we cant
