Pat Austin getting hired at ole miss ??

[Santiago]

They are making bold moves. Now this says many things.

[Ari Gold]

This is 100% on our athletic administration if this happens...

[KOdawg1]

They're going to wipe our ass on the recruiting trail.

[confucius say]

Serious question, Why are we so worried about pat Austin?

And is the administration worried about the transcript fiasco or is there some other hold up?

[confucius say]

They're going to wipe our ass on the recruiting trail.

Well yea, according to recruiting rankings at least. Are y'all just now realizing this? Leach hates recruiting. Starting in a year or two OM will recruit On average around 15-17 and we will be 25-30 in average. Same old song and dance.

I don't think that staff they have will be able to coach a lick

[Cooterpoot]

When Durkin rolls into a home and is asked about killing a kid.......

[chef dixon]

Man I think we over react to these type things big time. Even the years we didn't have Tony Hughes we do about the same in state recruiting as we usually do, but he's got this aura about him. Now Pat Austin, an off field guy, is some kind of ace in the hand? I'm just going to sit back and see how things unfold with Leach. Should be fun and better off overall than we were 2 weeks ago.

[msstate7]

I don't think that staff they have will be able to coach a lick

Idk about the position coaches; but durkin is a good coach for defense, and I think kiffin/lebby will be solid on offense. I don't know much about partridge. I think you're way underestimating this staff

[msstate7]

I said it on signing day when kiffin had to try and defend their terrible group of signees that OM would go all-in next cycle, and I'm sticking with that. The rivalry is about to get fun again...

Eh. It looks like a recruiting centric type staff and those don't typically work without elite talent. We'll see. I think you're overrating their staff

Maybe... I just think we will have a hard time topping durkin as a DC. The guy is really good, but toxic.

[AROB44]

Gloom ..Dispair...Agony on us!!!! We are doomed!!!!

And if they are as sloppy as they were last go round, they won't make it thru the repeat offender window without getting smacked again. They can't help it. Three sure things in life - death, taxes, and OM cheating in recruiting.

[confucius say]

Mac > Durkin. They should've retained Mac. And not just for on the field reasons. That staff badly needs an adult voice. Between kiffin and Durkin and Lebby there is not an adult leading either side of the ball.

No way our fans would under estimate another team's coaching staff. Especially Shotgun *****

New year, same old stuff... we hire nothing but aces, and everyone else in the sec has deuces

Ahh ... kinda a slap on the wrist last time. What hurt them IMO was Freeze getting fired.

Seems to me we playing too squeaky clean. Everyone else ain't,

Apparently the nation's #1 RB (from TX) gets released by Georgia from the NLI he signed in December and is in Oxford right now. The nation's #1 RB wants to go to 4-8 OM. Right, no cheating there.

Kiffin recruited ZERO 4-star recruits at FAU. Oxford wasn't quite so attractive for the past few years. But suddenly Kiffin is a master recruiter and Oxford is the best town again? They are cheating their asses off RIGHT NOW. I don't care if their official probation is over, they could get the death penalty if caught again within 5 years.

Evans is still expected to go to aTm though, right?

It's the same folks over and over, it's hard to read now days. No patience.

[Bothrops]

When they start pulling in the in-state stars on defense, then I'll be worried.

Rather have the in-state Dlineman than any other position. I believe Leach will find and develop WRs.

This is not a defense of Kiffin but it?s CUSA. There have only been 5 4 stars the last 5 years for the entire conference and only 3 made it to a CUSA campus. Kiffin did have one but never made it and not sure of the signing because he was listed in the total ranking but not on their commitment list. Marshall had 2 one year but only one made it and FIU had 2 JUCO 4 stars last year I think. They both made it in.

Looks like their recruiting weekend all of a sudden includes many highly rated recruits from all over the country. Seems just like it was under Bucky. The Network is back in business, full time.

You better believe they're hard and heavy after M. Jackson.

Since we out, I'm not following this recruitment at all. Who leads?

LSU probably, but if OM gets him on campus, they'll per$uade him

[Pennywise]

Most think he's still going out of state but with this new staff OM is trying to entice him to come be their star DL. He could pretty much start day one for them.

I'm talking about McKinnley Jackson, not the Evans kid.

What’s going to be interesting is that Leach gives ZERO 17s and will call out shenanigans in front of the entire conference.

It’ll be interesting to see how this plays out over the next few years.

Leach has never coached in an area with as blatant cheating as he’s about to see, so it may take him a minute to see reality.

Once he does, prepare for him to call people out in press conferences and on Twitter. It’ll be interesting

[Cooterpoot]

Now that we've got our DC, things will start moving along. LB and DL coach hires coming. McMath CB coach. I think it's going well. I think we grab a couple OL commits next week too. Transfer portal bout to take off too. In a good way.

[msbulldog]

Evans is still expected to go to aTm though, right?

Crystal balls 38% Georgia, 34% undecided, and 28% aTm.
kid is pretty wishy washy, rumored to have some issues, not sure what though.

[ckDOG]

Who was Austin's biggest pull at state? Guidry? We seemed to do just fine (relative for MSU) after he left. Y'all are a bit dramatic over rehashed names.

If he starts doing that, he better demand we clean house in the compliance department and emerge from the Stone Age in that area. People will definitely come after us and make things up if they have to.

[trob115]

Pat Austin is way overrated. We will be fine. Brad Peterson and Rod Gibson is who we need to stay around. They have way better connections and reputations.

[MaroonFlounder]

My thought is that maybe we recruit better out of state than we ever have. Not because of any great recruiting prowess of Leach & staff, but that his name and rep are more nationally known.

I'm not gonna freak out over OM getting TBuck and/or Austin, by no means.

This. Things are on the upswing!

I think he's in the boat because Roach was gone himself if Jackson didn't come. $$ has flowed.

[chef dixon]

It seems to me that Ole Miss is the one doing some patchwork on the back end of their staff. New blood is good for us.

Not seen the cheating? Because Oklahoma and Texas are pure as pure can be???

[HancockCountyDog]

They are out on him. He is AU/LSU/Bama.

[timotheus]

He may do them like Cam Akers did.

[maroonmania]

Yea, there is cheating there but I don't believe it is nearly the scale of cheating in the SEC. And cheating in MS is as bad as it is anywhere because of the socioeconomic factor and the Ole Miss involvement factor where there are a number of big time OM boosters that would probably sell their first born to get a top rated recruit in the boat.

They basically already do that with their daughters. Crootin hostesses, anyone? It’s been obvious for years they 17 recruits on visits to get them to sign.

Anyone who didn?t expect this the moment they hired Kiffin is clueless. They?ve had 3 bad years, kept their shenanigans to a minimum, now it?s time to go back to work. Glad that nasty letter and wrist slap from the NCAA stopped them.***

[HancockCountyDog]

This just a rumor? He certainly isn?t on their on the field staff.

Anyone confirm this yet?
