EDITED TO ADD - apparently I have zero information when it comes to recruiting so ignore me at all times when I post on here.
Recruiting rankings maybe? Season rankings absolutely not. So if we finish most seasons ranked somewhere between 20-30 which we do, I don't see how they could be wrong about recruiting ratings when we finish somewhere between 20-40.Quote:

Remember folks…..we don’t worry bout no stinkin recruiting rankings….LOL
How big of a get is this?
From what Ive seen it looks to be a solid pickup. Auburn was after him.Quote:

You can pick which one you want to be true and argue your pick to your deathbed.
As usual, truth is most likely somewhere in the middle.
He's a good player. Very solid get. Some DB commits are getting replaced.
DeCarlos Nicholson decommits from us so Johnson is replacing him.
Doubt we see him again on the commit list.
I think we would've kept Nicholson if we could. Don't think he was one of the DBs we were replacing. He's a good player. Probably headed to FSU.Quote:

We were a safety net for Nicholson it seems.
The 2 situations aren't related at all.Quote:

We did all we could to get him. The Greenville Christian kids are no slouch either. Tough get after your ass kids
To say he's an NFL corner is a stretch. He's never played 1 down at corner in juco. He's being recruited on measurables and athletism. Time will tell if he's a legit corner or not. It takes more than measurables to perform there constantly.Quote:

Saw film of a LB out of Atlanta that might deserve a little attention.
Dialo Mosley - LB 6?2 215

Us having John Lewis (who played at Germantown) should help our chances of a flip.
This staff doesn?t seem to care much for recruiting. Imagine it?ll stay pretty dead on here
I understand the concern, but I hope this staff is focused on winning this weekend.
Any news from this weekend?
Not that I've heard. Football recruiting is dead at MSUQuote:

Underrated fact - go back and look at Mullen's first class at MSU (after being hired) and see how many NFL guys Croom had committed in that class, and it would surprise the hell out of you. It did me.Quote:

Had all committed to MSU under Croom. Also laid ground work for Chris White and Perkins.
In fact the kids that Mullen added late, didn't really do much except for Bumphis.
My hope is that we are making great evaluations, because we certainly are not going to be involved in many recruiting battles if things hold.
Croom's problem was not recruiting comparative to his coaching ability. Mullen took over some talentQuote:
