Cam Akers is playing in the 6A State Championship in Starkville Friday

I know that this is probably a waste of time, but we should have anyone that lives in that can possibly go to the game go with handmade signs telling him that we want him to be a Dawg.

If our video people were clever we should so highlights on the scoreboard of our offense and Malik Dear and Aeris Williams along with something like "Where the best in our state come to play". And we definitely need to top it off with Cedric Jiles from Clinton's pick six in the Egg Bowl.

I know it probably won't work, but it also won't hurt.

That's dang good idea. Maybe we can make that happen. It would look good for us no matter how it works out with cam.

Or encourage him to sign with lsu so we can get Clyde

We are in his rearview mirror about 10 cars back. Do we still have contact with him at all? Snowball's chance in hell

Umiss odds of landing Strong as DC is about the same as us landing Akers
It's ok.. Everyone will be VERY pleased with what we have coming in at that position.

I have never seen Hill play, but I know a few who have seen him. They say he could be a really good RB for us much sooner then later. Great vision, good size, and changes direction with ease and not slowing down to do it as well.

I like Cam and Kylin.

Oh I agree we won't get Akers but that kind of show by our fans and university would look good no matter ehst

I'm very pleased with what we have coming in but it's always good to get as many great players as possible.

Yep and any chance we get to market our university we need to take it!

Aside from the obvious that Akers isn't coming, that idea with the scoreboard would be a fairly blatant NCAA violation.

Shea Patterson went to OM, we tried to warn him. Now we don't even care Shea is at OM. (Because we are happy with Nick Who wasn't heavily recruited) just because we warn does not mean we aren't happy with who have signed.

It's just that...I like Cam enough to continually warn him about OM (or not warn him but tell ya'll)

Having signs for Akers is a waste, he has no interest in Msu. What mature adult or student would stand around a empty stadium holding up a "we want Akers"?

If marketing is a player in this Championship, show highlights of the 2016 season and the campus, sell Msu not some recruit.

This Is Our State, Mississippi State University! That's what should be displayed on the jumbo.

Have seen them both. Give slight edge to Akers, but its close. Have to get Hill in school and keep him there

Hill is very good but Akers is another level.

Yep, I hope Akers becomes a Yankee citizen for the next few years

Just. No

I think the MHSAA has control of the video boards during the State Championships.

Akers is good but it will take 2 years to figure out what position to play him at.
