Fluff, whitson and Moton would be 3 true starters unlike most of our adds. We need them.Quote:

I feel EXTREMELY GOOD on Whitson. I feel really good on Moten and Fluff. The visit to OM worries me on Fluff, just because they close well in the portal. But I know he wants an opportunity to start, and he won't have that at OM. They just have far too many backs and are going to bring in more in the portal.Quote:

Why is whitson so high on the board? Did he have great stats at coastal?
Feel best about Whitson, worst probably about Moten but Moten has a starting spot and a great offer from us so that's all we can do. Fluff the same but down to a couple teams. Get them here!
Moten with an E needs to be priority. Probably would have to over pay there and that’s a huge need for us.
You forgot the s at the end**Quote:

I am not concerned with rb. CB and DL is a different story. I also think backs should be salivating to play with us. From Florida on, we ran effectively against every one but Georgia and ole miss. Georgia tried to press our wr and gave us a lot of man free and Lebby burned that to a tune of 31 yards. Lebby sees a lot of deep zone with light boxes and that’s a rb dream.
Ole Miss will overpay for a PR win for sure. Hopefully Fluff will let us counter whatever their offer is.Quote:

Have most others in the SEC abandoned the MS JC ranks (about 9 of our commits are from there) to concentrate on the portal or are our evaluations off? Time will tell for sure in 2026 as most JC guys seem to take a year to adjust to SEC play for us. Maybe a few will contribute in 2025. Either we have a "diamond in the rough pipeline" that others have abandoned or we may see Jackie's Western AZ CC 2.0.
He got injured this year but was looked at as a sure fire NFL guy before the season. He would be a really good get for us.Quote:

We need guys that have the bodies, we can't rely on HS kids to build depth.Quote:

Tony Mitchell looks to be the real deal. Worried about most of these guys. Still disappointed on Lebby's commits on signing day regarding the DL JC signees that "now we have some big guys to practice against on the Scout Team". Really and is that the best we could do in recruiting in this cycle for HS/JC? Spending scholarships and some NIL $ for Scout team players? Wow.Quote:
