My guesses
Ealy - Clemson
Mingo - Ole Miss
Duncan - MSU
Emerson - Miami
Lockhart - MSU
Sanguinetti - MSU
Young - Bama
Moore - No clue
Plumlee - Ole Miss
And bonus prediction...
In your opinion, What are the closest odds that Ealy ever plays in a college football game?
A) 0% B) <50% C) 50% D) >50%
B
Really Clark?
01-30-2019, 08:55 PM
And Moore has fewer options as the weeks go by

I’m saying if Plumlee commits to OM, it would help us with Mingo. Plumlee is not known for his passing.
Yeah I see what your saying, but I'm saying I doubt Plumlee ever plays QB at MSU even if he comes here. So Plumlee's passing won't affect Mingo. Mingo will be catching balls from KT, Mayden, or Shrader.

I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't play QB at Ole Miss either. Just saying.

Could but would probably be tough to beat out Joe's boy or others before Mingo exhausts eligibility. I don't see Mingo redshirting either. Glad Will is committed, though, as they are friends from what Bucky, I believe, has said.

Taggert was at LHS today and he told them that Tallahassee was too far for his family..I'm not sure they stopped recruiting him or he let them know they weren't in the running..No idea why he is jerking everyone around.. Moorhead, Shoop, and Hughes supposedly will be there in the morning according to my sources.. So I'm not so sure we "don't want " him anymore.. I think after tomorrow his story will be written one way or another

He won't redshirt with our receiving corps for sure. Guidry, Osirius, Austin Williams, and Whop all need to step up because it's going to be wide open.

Ealy - Spaceship Earth. WTF is going on here?

Lockhart didn't blow up until after the early signing period. People would've lost it.
I'm more frustrated that we didn't sign Washington in Dec. and passed on Matthew Bedford. Now we won't get either. This hopefully will be something Joe will learn from and improve on in the future.

We worry about numbers too much. Screw the numbers and get the kids. Stop waiting to see if someone may or may not sign after the signing date (exception being top end talent guys). We could've easily replaced Washington, James, etc. already. Bama over there signing 30+ and we can't get to 25. But, this tells me it's got to do with the school, because we've been doing it for 10 years now.

It doesn't seem like it should be that hard to gameplan. If your plan A isn't willing to sign in December, and Plan B is, then you sign Plan B in December, unless (1) you are fine not getting either or (2) Plan B is basically generic replacement level that we can always sign (in which case he shouldn't be considered Plan B to begin with).
Not sure how it would have shaken out this year if we had approached it like that.

Since it was reported by Rosebowl around 9:00 this morning, that is one long ass meeting. If the meeting was close to concluding, then I'm sure they would've held off going to lunch till the meeting was over, but the fact that they decided to break from meeting to grab lunch & then come back, tells me that this is a marathon meeting

We worry about numbers too much. Screw the numbers and get the kids. Stop waiting to see if someone may or may not sign after the signing date (exception being top end talent guys). We could've easily replaced Washington, James, etc. already. Bama over there signing 30+ and we can't get to 25. But, this tells me it's got to do with the school, because we've been doing it for 10 years now.

If you've never done the class projections on 24/7 you should try it out. Here's what I did:
1) Added Mingo, Moore, Ealy, Lockhart, Sanguinetti, and Duncan to our current class.
2) Took out Washington from our commits.
Would you guys like to know where that class would have ranked last year? 13th overall. Now we may not get that, but that kind of gives you a boom value for what happens if we are able to get a few of these guys on board.

What about when you toss Ealy and Lockhardt?
Ealy, while I get that it helps perception, it's somebody who isn't going to play.
And Lockhart, aren't we out of it with him? Or are people just giving up prematurely?

If I added Moore, Mingo, Sanguinetti, and Duncan, left off Ealy and Lockhart, and took away Washington, that class finishes 18th last year.
And for those playing at home, that close is not unrealistic. I would hope 100% of our fan base would be happy with that.

Well you can at least get a gauge from last year. For comparison, the score we would have with that class I mentioned with no Ealy and no Lockhart would have finished 14th in 2015, 15th in 2016, 12th in 2017, and 18th in 2018.
I know there are folks that will be added and things will shake around, but that score that I generated with that list would sit 16th right now. And schools will get commits and decommits yes, but I think that finish would guarantee us Top 20 because the score we generate on there with that finish has never finished below 18th in the last 5 recruiting classes.

If Meridian ever gets a good coach back they will pump out SEC players, they could now but they are turning into JPS level. The kid that went to Kansas from there played in the bernard blackwell game and I promise you if State knew about him we wouldve taken him. They are loaded year in year out

Ealy may very well sign with OM, but he's going out of his way to make it seem like we're not in the picture and that's simply not true. I honestly don't know why Yancy does this. Because sure, it makes your subscribers happy for the days leading up to NSD, but when they sign somewhere else (see Akers and Nakobe Dean), you look like a fool. But they keep paying him, so I guess they're okay with it.

I know Ealy is saying that now but that is not going to sit well with most MLB teams after the Murray. So there's that and then he's a RB who is subjecting himself to knee and shoulder injuries. Be curious to see how this plays out but I think this is one of those things that's easy to say now and harder to say when some scouts say they love you and want to draft you in the first, but ONLY if you commit to baseball.

And CB's for Moore aren't too relevant currently either. That doesn't mean he won't go to where the CB's say, but he could also go somewhere else. CB's currently aren't a determining factor on where Moore sends his fax on signing day.

There were significant starter/reliever concerns with Ginn that put in the 25-40 overall bracket of the draft. Similar questions surrounded Michael Kopech FWIW.
With Ealy, you are talking about a rare mix of power, speed, acceleration, & arm strength with no guessing on what his future position & role SHOULD be. That puts him in the 5-15 overall bracket

Possibly. It's not out of the question. Murray went 9th overall & Ealy is significantly better. Just depends on his Spring
MetEdDawg

Ginn would not be in the dugout if he went in the draft where Ealy should go
Ginn got offered 2.4 million dollars. Ealy isn't going to get much more than that.

Is he a top 10 pick? Assigned value drops below 4 million around pick 14. Drops below 3 around pick 23.
I really have no idea what his draft stock. Only site I see him on is really old and has him at #20. That slot is around 3.1. And yeah, 3.1 would be more than enough for me to go pro
He's borderline top 10 and has connections. He's going top 20 (barring injury or something) IMO.

There is also a trend going with many major league teams to shy away from high school pitching early in the draft. There are exceptions, but the Tommy John surgery rate for pitchers is approaching 40% now. I think you're going to see more and more position players drafted earlier and pitching will come more from college in the early rounds. There will be exceptions, but I think that is going to be the trend.

Not saying, he won't go that high, haven't seen him. However, it's a long way until the draft and that kind of talk really means little to nothing. And while I agree, odds are he won't play football based on all the info, there is only one school that has a shot to have him on the football field and that's the one that signs him. I'd rather be that one, no matter the end result. Never know.

I've just looked through 10 or so mock drafts, and the earliest I've saw him is 15th, most mid-20s. Now obviously these mean little, but the top 10 seems to be the same with a little different order. Also remember this... Seth beer was considered an absolute look to be #1 pick after his freshman year; he ended up #28 in his draft. Things can change

RB is just going to have to be a huge priority next year and we will have to hope Hill doesn't jump to the NFL this year (i''m thinking he won't).

I do think we would have signed Ealy if Huff had stayed and it would have been nice from a perception standpoint. I can't see Hill going pro after next year, but if he does that means he had a great year. With the transfer market, Jucos, Kareem Walker, Witherspoon, and 2020 backs, I have to think we will be ok at RB.
I do think we keep Emerson. Not even sure how hard Miami is pushing. Moore-whatever happens there I'm fine either way. Won't be too excited, won't be that disappointed. Mingo is the guy for me. We have his best friend, his QB, a WR coach he knows, and a huge need. This is a guy we need to close on.

We've got 14 guys signed. I expect us to sign Pickering, Cunningham, Payton, Walker, Colin Duncan and Emerson. That's 20. Puts us 5 under the 85 b/c 1 more guy is expected to leave the team. It looks like we are going to take Dylan Lawrence which is fine. I don't really think he has the frame to be a LB, but maybe he can help on special teams. So the only question marks are Moore and Mingo. Then we can go get the grad transfer punter that is visiting. And in my opinion we still need a WR, DT, and a QB. Just need to hit that transfer portal hard to have a good 85.

depends on how legit the time is. I remember Alvin Kamara ran a 4.56 at the combine and Kamara can move. Plumlee would be a nice get for Ole Miss and I think he's a good fit. He can start out at QB in the Rich Rod system and then move to safety if it doesn't work out.

Will say anything to inflate their egos or perception of their recruits. Just the way it is. If he was leaning to us that would be too slow. If he's leaning to them, he's blazing fast.

Yes, but anyone with a brain can see through that. That was all Freeze, Longo and recruiting. They now have Rich Rod as a coordinator and an OL coach at head coach that wants to run the ball more.
Exactly, we are doing everything we can to throw the ball more under Moorhead while OM seems to be intent on throwing it less with Rich Rod yet that isn't helping us with WRs. And OM hasn't done much with RBs recently but Ealy is heading there too. But for him I guess they are selling playing time right? BUT when we sell playing time for WRs or history of RBs for RBs it doesn't seem to work for us either way. And beyond that we should have a MUCH better team than them over the next couple of years. Does nobody care about being on a team more likely to win?
