I think his dad posted on Gene's in the recruiting section under the name mslawyer. From what I've read he sounded like a stand up guy.Quote:

There are PLENTY of examples of kids building a bond with coaches and schools that recruit them that can overcome a "childhood favorite team".
It has been pretty well established in this thread that the kid isn't a rampant partier -- and will have a fair recruitment overall. What does OM have to sell in reality that is better than MSU? A better stadium? No. Better football complex? No. Better academics? No. Better player development at the position? Lulz. The answer is NOTHING. They have NOTHING to sell him above us other than a childhood dream that they decided they "may" let happen at the last minute after missing on 30 other prospects and are already calling him a "career depth guy".
Despite what our defeatists tell you -- it's not an open and shut decision.
FYI... there is no way he tells our coaches "if Ole Miss offers I'm gone". If he did that his scholly would have been pulled and we would have moved on a longggggg time ago. You'd have to be really elite to tell a coach that and that program would have to really be in a struggling position. Neither situation is happening here.
And Mati Te'o thought the "girl" he was talking to had a ******. This just seems like something that was organized from the beggining. I guess if nothing else, we'd be forcing them to use a scholly to get him instead of him walking on or gray shirting.Quote:

Pretty telling imo.
This recruitment is very similar to Keith Holcombe. We knew whenever we were recruiting Holcombe that if Alabama were to offer there was a good chance he would flip because of his ties. I'm sure CDM and co. knew the same about Rawlings going into it. Now the main difference between the two is that Alabama realized they were missing out on a quality player A LOT earlier than the bears did. If he gets an offer this weekend and flips, best of luck to Sean (except Thanksgiving). But if he thinks it through, and realizes we have wanted him since the get go and remains a Dawg, I will be beyond ecstatic. There should be no hard feelings to a senior in HS either way from either side of the rivalry.
This...I laughed when I read the other postQuote:

Holy hell our fans are dumbasses.Quote:

It's from you accusing him and his parents of being party to a long-thought-out agenda to screw MSU at the last minute. When they've been NOTHING but stand up people this entire time. While KNOWING that they read the boards. Do you know how stupid that is? Obviously, you don't. Because you went there in the first place.Quote:

It's unbelievable the way some grown men get so worked up over the recruitment of HS KIDS. He grew up a bear fan, so IF he does flip how can you blame him? He has said nothing short of positive things for Mullen and State. Calm down and let recruiting take it's toll. Whatever happens I'm sure we will still own that bear ass on the fieldQuote:

Do you honestly think these type of people will be swayed by what is being written about them on a ****ing message board that only represents a small portion of the entire fanbase? If that's the case, God forbid parents ever finding out about the SecRant.Quote:
