I'm fine with that. Personally I'd try to get Petty and we need a running back. Other than that we're OK.Quote:

Noreel White officially to OM.
That sucks, kid is a player, but based on the way he acted on twitter, probably not a huge loss.Quote:

Sounds like we wanted White at CB (Stonka and Harrell are better WRs), and he wanted to play WR, which om told him that he could do...not saying that we didn't want the kid, but his insistence on playing receiver put him down the board a little for usQuote:

Ole Mi$$ has cleaned up with good players from the MS Gulf Coast. Time will tell very quickly whether big $ to HS players, them or $ to retain proven players, us, is the way to go. I think a blend of both with major retention $ is the way to go in this crazy, Semi-pro, NIL world. 2023 for us, 7-5 floor, 9-3 ceiling. 6-6 is a failure no matter who the coach is. We have moved beyond that! Hail State!
I mean... we're going 15-0 but please tell me the 3rd guaranteed loss that lowers our ceiling.Quote:

Only coast players I can think of having a real impact recently is Walley and Derrick Hall
Jay Lindsey decommits.
Our recruiting sucks right now.
OM is kicking our ass in state outside a few guys. We decided not to play the NIL game with HS guys and it is killing us. It's pay to play now and we better figure that out. We are being told that we are using NIL to keep guys already on the roster, but 2 to 3 years from now there won't be any talent to keep if we don't get in the gameQuote:

I said we suck "right now." Meaning we can change that and there's still time to.Quote:

I remember hearing Charlie saying that most of the NIL money is going to the players already on the roster and not a lot of recruits. My first thought was ? Well, that?s dumb?.Quote:

Why is that dumb. I would rather lose recruits than experienced players. You are welcome to put up your own money for specific recruits if you would like. Thank you in advanceQuote:

Fan perception of NIL is not NIL reality.
I think it will depend what big 10 team. If it's OSU, Michigan or PSU I'll be pumped. If it's Indiana, Illinois or Purdue, I'm not sure I'll get that pumped.Quote:

I'm sure Charlie meets with the coaches and gets input on how they want to spend the money. Losing so many seniors I suspect we'll focus a lot on the portal this offseason.
Recruits ideas on NIL are reality. Three years from now, when we don?t have studs we will still have n issue with keeping players. Got to get the talent on campus to keep them.
No big surprise as TE Jay Lindsey committed to bama yesterday. Who's next in our boat? Hail State?
Our 16th commit: (Thread was started about him a couple of days ago - putting it here) Jacorey Whitted, TE, 6' 5 1/2", 253, McCalla, AL, McAdory High School 3 Star, .89 (4 star .8953 247Sports Composite, #20 in AL), #22 in state. Very nice to get a true TE (rated higher than the bama TE that decommitted from us to bama. Now, who's next? Hail State!
Bottom line is we need a better man at the QB. We got talent elsewhere
And we've got a stud in Parson on campus, along with a stud in Flowers committed.Quote:

Pope and Hill in Starkville this weekend (Hill holding out for Bama)
Oh well
What happened? I don't follow recruiting at allQuote:
