How many more will we take? Who will the last few be?
Campbell
Leo
Rankin
Wrap it up.
Speaking of Juco, are we still after Ulric Jones? He was a sign and place guy for us 2 years ago, right? He's a 6'6" DE with a nice looking offer list.
That's right. We will have at least 2 go juco, maybe 3. That leaves 3 or 4 spots left for Leo, Campbell, Rankin and Patterson. Obviously, we would make room for Daron Payne as well. With 5 Bham area commits, no need to right off Payne especially with his teammate Mixon on board. I think we really want to sign either Payne or Swain to help at DT next year.
From what I here we have turned Patterson from 80-20 Ole Miss to probably 60-40 Ole Miss... My source is not Robertson but is pretty good... with that being said I have seen this happen before... Kid is identified early by Ole Miss... See the bag man article... then we make a strong push... in the end we fight the good fight but the longstanding relationship is too much to overcome... Kid really considers us... signs with Ole Miss.. Thats how I expect it to play out
Payne is getting a lot of pressure from all the State commits, but momma wants him to go to Bama. This one is gonna be difficult to pull.
Remember we have several commits that won't be here when all is said and done. Just part of it.
I'm not saying we get Patterson but we're definitely in it & in it in a very strong way. The Alford situation at OM didn't do them any favors & he's let that be known to Javon plus Jesse having a great experience at MSU isn't hurting. On Payne I still think he's Bama bound but not as much of a slam dunk as before. Bama is on a few top notch DL & if they choose before Payne then he may not have a spot. Mama is all about Bama but Payne likes all 3 & is really getting the sales pitch from Mixon & Co.
