Allegedly yes.
Looks like a State vs Melvin battle now
Who broke story? I thought epps tweeted it out
I think Demetric Warren was the first guy to break the actual story, and he predicted Epps to MSU last week.
Keith on the 247 board says Auburn hasn't even mentioned Epps and that they are full at TE and WR.
Could we win a Flipmas battle? Why do I feel so skeptical? Oh wait, I remember.
... And good user name, "Bully Dee Williams". You should make this (or some variation thereof) your avatar , stat.

All this talk is good and all but if the retweet i saw last night from. Steve Roberson from Epps mom, we nay be all spinning our wheels. She doesn't appear to be liking all the recruiting attention. And appears to be all about ole miss too i might add
I just looked at the tweet you are referencing, and it's true that she doesn't seem like recruiting. As far as her twitter background still being OM, her son decomitted less than 24 hours ago, and she may/probably not have changed it yet.
Why would Epps have decommitted unless he was looking around? Logic tells you that he probably isn't all on board with OM right now.
He could re-commit tomorrow. Since they don't have anyone to flip from elsewhere, they are flipping their own.
I just can't get to excited about this. Since they just put on that show with Hampton, decommitting for 3 days just to have a ceremony to celebrate flipping back to Ole Miss, i'm just not buying into Epps not ending up a bear.
It's recruiting so you never really ****ing know what the hell is going on but this one isnt like Hampton so far. Yancy was all "wink-wink" about Hampton. He's not that way on this one.
I read her tweet also and by media, she could be talking about Yancy, McReady, and all those hounds hammering them trying to find out wtf is going on....
I took her tweet as it was intended for Yancy. He's been the only one who is speaking matter-of-factly about her job. All the other site guys (both MSU & OM) have toed around it with heaving doses of "allegedly" and "possibliy". Yancy came out and said Mom is moving to Oxford for a new job in a cpl weeks. I'm about to go full spit balling here. While that may be or is true, you have to wonder about her current employer and if they had not gotten notice. I'm sure the mom doesn't want her job situation being played out on a message board especially the insinuation that it's tied to her son and his recruitment.
If you know how to wade through Yancy, it looks like he's laying foundation. If he was truly an "OM lock" b/c of a job for mother, I doubt he would make that public. He'd just get cute with wink wink. The way he is playing it is conditioning the sheep that IF they lose Epps, it's b/c someone outbid them or made mom a better offer.
Engie nailed it in his post earlier about how to interpret Yancy. Strictly going off how Yancy is playing this situation, I'd say MSU stands a good chance as of now.
could this be another re-commit it has been a week they need another press release
Exactly. Yancy wouldn't have thrown out the nugget about mom's job if he didn't think it was an EXCELLENT chance that they had already actually lost him. He's preparing the flock. IF he REALLY thought it was a great chance that Epps would stick with them, he would have thrown out nuggets with sunglass smileys and hinted that things were fine.
