Rosebowl with the CB for Mingo
Bold move the day after he took a visit to OMQuote:

Pretty unusual swing right after visiting the team he is committed to. Usual the high is with the school you just visited.Quote:

None of the guys were expected to commit publicly this weekend.Quote:

While it would've been nice to get Young, he wasn't a must-have. We've got players on the DL. We NEED Jonathan Mingo.
I guess I missed it somewhere, did Baker accept the job?
Yes, he goneQuote:

Pickering is good. Wouldn’t be surprised if he sleeps in this weekend. He’s not happy with Baker.
Hope this year's Mississippi class doesn't start a new trend of kids wanting to leave the state.
I hope that was a combination of Moorhead being an unknown, Ole Miss being on probation and down, and coincidence.Quote:

It seems to me like we are off to a much stronger start in 2020 with the in state players. That is encouraging to me.
Yeah, the 2020 class is off to a great start. Speaking of, where do we sir with McKinley Jackson.
It's scary. Bama and Auburn have recruited lights out in MS this year. Not sure whyQuote:

A lot of the 4 stars in MS this year were three stars originally. We may end up with more than you think.
This is incorrect. He has recruited exceedingly well. Hell, not only has he had to deal with Bama coming in to take players, but they are coming in and taking coaches. Bama is a machine that we cannot expect to control currently.Quote:

Will Rogers isn't even rated on 247 right now. That will change. He will be a 4 star by the time it's done.Quote:

Almost prefer there to be more unknowns that get better.Quote:

If they're unknown, they don't get evaluated and assigned a quality rating. If they aren't rated high, you melt because we're signing a bunch of 2-3 star unknown kids...Quote:

Either way, you melt so it's a win-win for you!!!
I'm going to start calling him "butter". His melt game is strong!Quote:

Pickering

Payton
Cunningham
Duncan
Mingo
Ealy
Washington
Lockhart
Sanguinetti or Emerson
A couple grad transfers
No one was going to commit over the weekend ( at least not publicly )Quote:

Mingo would be an amazing get. I'm trying not to get my hopes up though lolQuote:

I did not see that coming, and I don't see Pickering signing with anyone but us.
Thanks for that good news. +1Quote:
