They have holes too this year. But Todd do like to blame all our offensive woes on Mullen and his recruiting while to me it's more on Joe than Mullen this year. Our Oline shouldn't have played as badly as they did in our 4 losses. And Aeris should've started all season also.Quote:

How many new commits this weekend? I feel like 2 if Bedford makes the decision.
I think we get 3.Quote:

I think Cross, Pendley, and maybe Ealy are it for prospects. Bunch of commits coming in. Next week I'm hoping it'll be Hall and Jones. Bedford was last week.
I could see all the OL recruits wait until signing day before committing. They may pull the trigger this weekend but if they don't it's nothing to worry about.
compliments of Paul Jones and 247Quote:

This team could've and should've averaged no worse in SEC play than we averaged last year. Some of it was game planning too. Joe is learning tho I believe.Quote:

Part of that is scheme why we gave up less sacks. We normally always kept a TE or RB or both in protection with Mullen.Quote:

About 1.5 secs before getting hit by a DE or LB ain't much time for Nick to "quickly process" information.Quote:

Each has there own advantage but you have to give it the time to develop. I think it's smart bc we have had the physicality to get us close, but adding scheme and agility is the best way for us to take another step forward.
You the real MVP! Well said brother.Quote:

This time we are not holding back on either. Hopefully Marks commits to us soon and we can stay in the hunt for Tyree as the process plays out.Quote:

Just turned it there. There no offensive talent in this game? LolQuote:

I said earlier this week that we could get commitments this week & they not go public this weekend. We only have 3 uncommitted guys on campus & we know Ealy isn't doing anything anytime soon.Quote:

Wasting other teams time is the best thing they could do to help #hailstate. That is, unless you are so highly recruited, your decision could bring ither key players with you.
Ealy is either going to the MLB or Clemson.Quote:

All this shit about only on RB and we chased away other Good RB is false and stupid
