Holy shit .. everyone chill out a ****in second... there is some momentum to LSU right now just like there was to Uga a few weeks ago . I still like our chances . Emery may commit to LSU soon he may not .. it?s July
Let?s see what happens this weekend if he comes to TDC and even if he doesn?t it?s not over by a long shot
Rose bowl talks to a LSU Insider that gives him info and he runs with it... I bet the 24/7 board got a lot of clicks and views this morning ..,
Dude... everybody? Just two guys that love to moan and groan any and every chance they get.

We've been talking to him and he's been talking to us. Getting him to flip would in no way hurt us. I doubt we move until Emery does, but I prefer to have Gray available. I'm not going to ignore him because he's committed. That would be crazy. And honestly, we've held off on everybody because of Emery already. That should end if he commits somewhere.
Why not move now and get Gray in the boat if possible? If Emery comes too, so be it. You wait too long on one, you may miss on both.

They only want one RB this cycle unless something changes. And I'm not saying we're going to get Gray yet, but we've got a good shot.

With half of the top Mississippi players looking to go out of state & Emery now lost, this class is sputtering & could be a huge missed opportunity.
Not to mention, we don't even know who will flip

Since I was on Team Emery to State from the start I just heard from who I needed to hear from about this
Expect Emery to commit to the Tigas first of or early August .. He won’t shut down his recruiting process and we aren’t out of it.
So Take that however you want ..

So why commit then? We were led to believe he wanted to do it once and be done with it. Is this one of those situations where he needs to commit to turn down the heat in LA and then we see where he really ends up in dec?

I guess I'll stay on this island by myself. I have enough food & water to last me a few weeks. If he doesn't step foot on the LSU campus this week I don't see him committing to LSU. Again I may be 100% wrong but that's how I feel.

Losing a 5 star La running back to LSU won't bother me near as much as the #of MS players in this once in a decade(?) class that are committed to or leans to out of state schools. bama gonna bama, but AU also looking to cherry pick big time. Hope we can get some good news during/after BDC. Long way to signing day(s). We seem to have always lost more big names to out of state schools than we ever get from them. Proud of the job done by JoMo and staff to date. Here's to closing strong. Hail State! BTW: I'm still tee'd that Rooster Jones(?) and Hugh Greene went to Pittsburg and heck, Jackie poached them!

Makes you wonder what it was raining in this storm you speak of during the dead period to change his mind so quickly. Also thought he wanted to be the only back in his class at the school he chooses? That doesn't appear to be the case at LSU.

Maybe so. Believe I would tell Emery we will always have a spot for you but you're really tying our hands on making this a one RB class. We've already lost our RB that we signed last year, so we are fixing to start looking for your replacement because we can't afford to not sign a good RB and get caught with our pants down. It's up to you(Emery) if you want this to be a one back class at MSU and you be "the man" in our RB class. I'm sure we could see where we stand by telling him this. Of course, I'm sure our coaches have more than filled him in on our situation and how they are approaching it.

We are at a point where we need to go all in on Eric Gray. It won't be easy to flip him from Michigan but we have two big advantages: 1) 3 hour drive vs. 12 hours 2) In 2019 we will have 2 RB's and currently 0 commits VS Michigan with 6 RB's and 1 4* commit in addition to Gray. We have a good situation for a player that wants to get early playing time.

Emery is visiting UGA this weekend. If he had just been bought & paid for by LSU I doubt he'd be on his way 4 states over for a visit. Something just isn't adding up in this situation. Again I could be 100% wrong but I think the LSU done deal talk was premature. I still like MSU chances & im going down with the ship.

If you read the interview with Emery on Rivals he says his favorite part of the recruiting process is getting to see new places. He had only been to one other state before. So that explains his desire to see Athens. Who wouldn't want to be treated to a fabulous weekend in Athens! The other key thing in the article is that he says his main criteria is the strength of the OL at each school. I'm afraid that doesn't bode well for us in 2019 and beyond. He also has a brother in prison in La. that he is close to and visits often. He seems like a real family guy so being close to home is a big deal. So yea I can see LSU in his future...
Can we talk about our chances of flipping Gray?

We will see what happens. If we don't offer, I think he goes to Tulane or Navy. The question is that we are trying to determine if he is SEC caliber. Camp evaluation will really matter for him.

Any chance that article by Steve about Emery was kinda pushed by the staff to help get the word to Emery's camp that it's time to commit if you want us to keep our 1 RB promise? Maybe to just make them think before continuing to keep us in their back pocket while visiting everywhere else?
I'm probably wrong, but that didn't read like a typical Steve article about an uncommitted guy. It read like a "well if you're wavering, we're about to full Court press our Option B, and he may become our 1 RB for '19." Thoughts?

The entire thing feels weird for sure.
I'm gonna say no though because the LSU side is reporting the same and Steve has even alluded to local pressure and booster involvement. So I think Steve is reporting the truth.

It is calculated. All teams involved are trying to use what ever angle they can to convince Emery that he is a better fit at their school. At first he wanted to be 'the guy'. But he's changed his tune on that. Someone (LSU) has convinced him to look at the O lines of each team and decide who could better help him reach his goals. LSU is loaded with 4* and 5 * O linemen.

You don't really believe this do you?
Is this your recruiting pitch or LSU's?
Wouldn't MSU just counter with the fact that MSU's OL is far more talented than the Penn State OL that Barkely just ran behind and that this offense is just built him?
Have you read Emery say that's what LSU convinced him of or did you just make that up?

I still believe if you asked the kid all other bullshit aside where do you want to play college football next year he would say MSU.
I was on Emery from the start I will go down with the ship .
And I think IYOK has stated this somewhere If Emery is a lock to LSU now as most think now why in just 2 days he is off to UGA for the weekend.?

I hope Huff and Moorhead can close on this guy. Looks to be the absolute best place for him to step into. He could be an amazing 1-2 punch with Hill for the next two years. Our OL has been plenty good over the years, and now we are actually recruiting the position and that can only help.
We have 4 guys at RB right now. 2 leaving at the end of the season. Hill is the next step and he will be a Junior when Emory arrives on campus. He will have be in a position of immediate impact on a team that is only going to get better under Moorhead. Barkley is case in point. Look at how Moorhead featured him in every aspect of the game.

Logically we should get him, but never put anything past the pride of local boosters & O fearing his job.
Hopefully, Emery has strong enough support around him to make the right decision

Most Louisiana kids grow up dreaming of playing for LSU in Tiger Stadium. That emotion is hard to overcome.
Logically, there could be some coaching uncertainties as the LSU season progresses. I also think Moorhead will have an offense that impresses the Emery family. However, LSU is going to point to Tiger Stadium, big trophies already won, and guys like Fournette, Guice, and a long history of LSU running backs.

As they should. LSU's sales pitch never changes. It's the same every year &, along with obviously producing a ton of NFL talent, they also waste as much talent as anyone as well.
If I were working in MSU's recruiting department, I would take the attention away from gross total of NFL players LSU or Bama produces & actually try to figure out how many NFL players per star or something of the sort in order to show recruits that, "IF MSU recruited on the same level as LSU, MSU would produce more & better NFL players than LSU does."
The great thing about recruiting well is you get to show recruits how many NFL players you produce. The downside, however, is that other schools can poke holes in your development process by showing that you are also not developing & wasting an awful of NFL talent

Steve says its LSU, but he's been wrong before and while his source is good (Emery's dad) that's not Emery himself. Ari and IYOK are saying they're hearing different things. All we know for sure is that local and $$$ pressure will be to go to LSU, and there's a heck of a lot of time to recruit/have the LSU coaching situation change between now and signing day. But it seems to me like nobody really knows what's going on, or even what Emery is looking for in a program (1 back thing apparently doesn't matter anymore).
There's million different theories us fans can think up as to what's really going on, I say we wait till ARI, IYOK, Bucky, Steve, and maybe even Emery himself figure out what's going on. It's pointless to keep trying to guess at our odds at getting him without info as to where we stand. "It's local pressure", "It's $$", "It's the OL", "He's all LSU, but he's going to UGA because he likes to travel", "He's not all LSU because he's going to UGA", "We should cheat as much as LSU is to make it even", "Staff should have Saquan talk to him", "Staff should show him that OL doesn't matter for their system"....

I'm really cheering for the Coker Wright kid. I don't want us to take a guy that is not SEC quality, but I am desperately hoping that our coaches believe he is SEC quality, because, after struggling with Cross & OL recruiting, it would be sweet to get a quality OL commitment easily.

If Emery commits to MSU or LSU, what are the odds that the same coach and offensive coordinator are there for his career. Assume Emery plays 3 years of college and turns pro early (and Emery still has one season of high school left).
Will Moorhead be at MSU for 4 years (he is basically the offensive coordinator also)? Will Orgeron be at LSU for 4 more years? Will Ensminger be at LSU for 4 more years?
My money says Emery will have a much better chance of coaching stability at MSU.

I just find it funny how he shows no interest in LSU the entire recruiting process & now it's about the OL. Surely that is what LSU has been selling the entire time, but for 6 month it didn't mattered yet changes his recruitment during the dead period. Come-on mane

This is why this season is so important to MSU.....maybe THE most important season in recent history. If LSU falls flat this season Yaw Yaw is gone. If we can go 10-2 or better it will legitimize Moorhead and the program. If both of those things happen our recruiting continues to improve and we will continue to win.

It may not be all because of O if he ends up there, but I don't think it'll be to spite him either. Regardless of his coaching ability, or lack thereof, O is still one of the best recruiters in all of college football. I think O leaving would have a major effect on whether Emery ends up at LSU.

It's just an understanding of the local MS, AL, LA recruiting landscape that can really only come through seeing it in person. I'm not at all saying that there is a difference in relating to kids, selling your program, etc.
There is a difference IMO & it's not really fair to Moorhead to expect him to know EVERYTHING about recruiting this region before taking the job.

I feel like all big programs do this to an extent though. Obviously it's probably a little more prevalent in the South with the sheer amount of "rogue boosters" floating around. But if Moorhead didn't know at least he's well prepared for some of the things he'll encounter later on in the cycle. Especially from our neighbors to the North

The 247 recruiting guys said for a long time that he didn't really want to play for Ed and that offense. It's why we were in the game to begin with, from what I understand. He liked the Moorhead offense.

Wouldn’t be shocking at all if Ealy is a part of this class , but I don’t see anyway he is playing football next fall
Worse case if we don’t land Emery or Make a push for Gray, if there is a juco that is talented enough to get meaningful snaps next year I could see us going that route and then going high school route in 2020 which will be Chris Tyree . But he won’t be easy pull .. big time talent but we have a great shot
We havent had an issue with RB in the past few years of recruiting with Knox so I see no reason that won’t improve with Huff. We might miss out on A few more but we will be going after big time Backs

UGA currently has four 5-stars. Oklahoma and LSU each have two 5-stars. Nobody else has more than one 5-star. With the way they are recruiting now and over the last 2-3 years, they are going to be a force to be reckoned with (actually they already are). Mullen is going to find himself competing with a lot of the teams in the East for second place. Georgia is building a big, fast, physical, deep team. Like Clemson and Bama over the last few years.

Sounds to me like this site has turned into a Kirby Smart admirer's club. Posts like "Smart is the real deal", "Smart is killing it recruiting", "Smart is Saban 2.0". He probably is a good coach but as MS State fans, I don't think we need to be giving him so much praise.
Why? Hes done a great job and shouldve won the NC. Bama needs a challenger and since Mullen tucked his dick between his legs when we played them might as well pull for someone.
Hopefully Moorhead changes this but right now until we beat them its UGA and thats it. I dont buy Malzahn to challenge them consistently

Dont wanna count any chickens before they hatch, and I have no clue if its going to be Mingo tomorrow or not. But I can say this, he isnt going to have any off field problems wont miss a rep nor a practice and has a good football mind. He is explosive after the catch and Jarrian Jones knows he is the best WR in the state. Ask him.
Moorhead has made a huge difference with him. If we still had Mullen idk if we would even be in the game with him at this point.

They play on the same 7 on 7 team & yes great players care about other great players. It's a reason why guys already on the team get so involved with recruiting kids. Doesn't matter the class to borrow a phrase from Bama "Savages wanna play with Savages".

OL recruiting is a concern, but more because of previous year's failures. I am concerned about LB recruiting. We seem to be getting limited traction there, so far. I hope it is just taking time for Lubaku to re-adjust to recruiting and that we will close strong. Mississippi has three of the top LB prospects in the country and we need to close strong.

Low rated athletes that are freaks. LB will never be a concern. We'll get a good RB. Not concerned there at all. For a first year staff to do as well as they're doing this year is just a precursor for what's to come after kids see us play.

Obviously Tallahassee isn't like the other Florida cities you listed, but to even try to compare Hattiesburg to Tallahassee is laughable. It's over 4x the size of Hattiesburg. It's not even close to the same besides proximity to coast maybe.
Dean for instance, if he's grown up in Horn Lake all his life and wants to get some where new. You think he is going to choose Starkville or Oxford? It's the same thing, new zip code.

The season has not started yet. When we get these kids on campus for a huge game like Florida and we start getting talked about in the media and up in the top 10 you will begin to see some huge momentum shifts. Especially when teams like FSU end up 7-5. My suggestion is to listen to IYOK, ARI, and others. When they seen to be worried then fine, go worry, but right now they are quietly confident and so am I. We are going to miss some. Everyone does. But we have hit on a ton too. Go look at our class. It's good.

I came away damned impressed the way Jo Mo held our commits in check when he took over day 1. Stats are not kept on that but for a new HC without being a household name to do what he did tells me there's no lack of effort on our HC or the assistants. And look at the 2019 commit list. What have these new coaches done since they've been here that would question their work effort and style? Sometimes the other guy is just gonna beat you in this game, both in recruiting and on the field. That's the way this shit works.

There are going to be some misses it happens every year but the overreaction on recruiting since the Emery stuff has just been crazy. Yes we need a couple more good OL we know. Yes we need another talented LB we know. We're a Top 12 recruiting class with a legit shot to be in the Top 10 going into August. Take a step back, breath, & realize we're doing damn good & we're going to be fine. It's almost like JoeMo spoiled you guys too early with this class. I guess he should've spaced the commitments out for some of you instead of going on runs because as soon as there is a little lull people start getting antsy.

After all, if we aren't going to worry about 17-18 year old's decisions then why should we worry about wins & losses on the field? If we aren't going to worry about wins & losses, they why even go to the games? If we aren't going to worry about going to the games, then why even fund a program?
Just because the conversation itself makes you feel bad, doesn't mean you should call others out who want to have it &, if you want to call people out for talking about relevant topics regarding MSU football, then maybe you should find another board to post on. Perhaps Sixpack where they discuss politics & pizza places would be more up your ally...

Can we make sure that we have MSU fans at every prospects game ringing cowbells? Or is that against the rules?

Absolutely we could
Not sure MSU care enough to do that though. Bama, Auburn, & LSU fans probably do though

Wonder who is recruiting Mississippi for FSU. They are earning their money thus far. May not get anybody to sign in the end but they have certainly gotten the attention of some of our top targets.
We're 12th in 247 rankings FSU is 15th.

Confirmed for TDC this weekend - McKinley Jackson, Jon Mingo & Derick Hall
YUGE!
Wait is Derick Hall gonna be at TDC this weekend? Getting conflicting signals from the rest of this thread. I'm sure someone will give us a list of TDC visitors soon.

Dude, take it easy. I rarely miss a home game and follow recruiting just like you, but I'm not going to freak out if a kid chooses another school over MSU. By all indications, our recruiting is much better than it has been.

They have 13 commits to our 17. Their avg rating is 91.66, and ours is 89.21. Of their 13 commits, 10 are 4 star or better. Of our 17 commits, 7 are 4 stars. Surely you aren't saying we're outrecruiting them

You started it. Not me. I didn't call you out, but you called me out. Perhaps you are the one that needs to take it easy with your 169 posts. See what I'm saying?
It may end up being better than it has been, but there are not all indications that it will be.

If 90% of my posts were bitching about something I couldn't control I'd have over 1000 posts too. Amazing how you respond to those with low post count sayin something to you buy not Ari for asking how you survived Mullen recruiting.

I think how we perform this season will determine which trajectory we take. If we blow the lid off this bitch like we can then I think a lot of these guys looking out of state will be more likely to stay home. Bottom line is it’s July. Wayyy too early to worry about which kid is visiting where. Even if they commit, who gives a shit. Until they sign we still have a shot.

FSU has 13 commits with an avg rank per player of .9166. We have 17 with an avg of .8921. It is much too early to predict top 10/15 classes unless you are a bama type school. We will have to finish strong to remain top 15. Look at the other "blue bloods" still behind us and the avg ranking of commits and the rankings of their targets.

While I do disagree with shotguns freak out here, if anyone thinks he is not a huge asset to this board then you should just exit stage right

My apologies for the low post count; I'll freak out and post more. Oh, and Dannis Jackson is in Oxford for the weekend. Do you have a brown paper bag you can hyperventilate in?

Robbie Faulk CB’d him to OM today. Hopefully he won’t make any cash decisions, I mean rash. Sorry
