Paul Jones just CB'd him to TCU
Along with 3 others... Don't know why I even got my hopes up. Have I mentioned I hate football recruiting?Quote:

Hey, on the bright side, at least you can enjoy Christmas day before it becomes official. We don't typically close very well, that's why I don't like that we didn't nail down more of our top targets back in the Summer and early Fall. Having to nail these guys down in late December and January is not something I'm real confident in. At least WR is not one of our biggest areas of need so as long as we get AJ we should be fine at that position.Quote:

Schools that are committed get players that have extreme interest their program.
You run out of prospects pretty quick when you recruit a 200 mile radius.
Yeah, I called TCU in a thread that was deleted for some reason. I guess elitedawgs is trying to "control the message". LOL.Quote:

Interesting, we suck at recruiting bc MState7 has perspective.Quote:

If losing a wideout destroys the celebration of the birth of our Savior, well you need to prioritize.Quote:

Even though back then there was primarily selective enforcement against schools like us at least it gave everyone pause that there could be consequences to going too far.Quote:

I like our chances and I want the guy. If we do lose him, there are other playmakers out there.Quote:

Um again.. Do u think hugh has burner phones or do u think other people handle it? Don't bitch about it unless ur ready to change it.. It's the dead period our coaches absolutely should not call this kidQuote:

My post wasn't a negative about MSU, but other schools still have more committed & fanatical alumni that find their identity in the success of the football team.
Didn't mean to call anyone out in particular, just used the original post to make a point.
Losing recruits made guys like Logan Young not enjoy Christmas. Just an example
Well apparently something has changed for our own recruiting guys to be flipping their prediction.Quote:
