He's been a bball guy. Committed to New Mexico St for bball. Has some smaller football offers but bigger schools are started to come around. Not sure if he's going to give up bball for football. Kid has a crazy high ceiling in football.Quote:

I've heard he wants to go to ole miss and play with Metcalf. I've heard we are third behind ole miss and bama, but I've also heard he is not as dead set about getting out of Starkville as he was earlier. So while it looks a little better than it did, we still have ground to catch up.Quote:

Yeah, there's something of a rivalry between those two. Nothing heated, but there's no way they play together.
I think they should take their rivalry to the next level... Like the egg bowlQuote:

We are in great shape with AJ, dogfight with Bama for Simmons.
Simmons and Brown are 2 of the best out of Mississippi in awhile- and why Bama is fighting harder for these 2. Location and friendships are our friend for a change
We're working on 2 straight 10 win seasons... We can't lose big time players in our back yard. Simmons and AJ are a must or this class can't be considered a success IMOQuote:

So is mine...great example of why things change so much in recruiting, nobody has a clue. And also why I don't follow it much unless it's a kid close by.Quote:

Can't imagine he would really want to go up there and deal with the mess they have going on at the moment (NCAA, KKK, etc.)Quote:

I have zero sources, but from the outside looking in, logic says State or bama. This is recruiting we are talking about though.
I went to Starkville, Oxford game this year. AJ is leaps and bounds better than Metcalf.Quote:

If he's really wanting to play 2 sports, I feel much better about our chancesQuote:
