This isn't new. It's been said repeatedly that Kylin Hill & Cam Akers wouldn't be going to the same school.Quote:

After this cycle I don't really know if I'd think anyone is all but wrapped up. Hopefully OM hasn't established a pipeline out of SHS. If Willie Gay looks around, he will see that OM doesn't do jack shit for linebackers.
But can he pass block*****Quote:

Akers biggest upside is extending plays. You can't arm tackle Akers. He runs like he's a middle linebacker. Both of these guys are going to be great at the next level. But they won't be on the same team.Quote:

Willie will have a quiet recruitment. His best friend is Kobe Jones, and he's close with Kylin. And he can fit a definite need for us. I expect Sirmon to take over his recruitment full time.Quote:

Just like metcalf and AJ?Quote:

We have 35 potential players, so by God we need to set our sites on BOTH Akers and Hill. It's way too early to be conceding folks when you have as many spots as we do....especially in-state studs like Akers. Our staff better not be giving up on guys this early. Am I missing something? Did we learn nothing from this past recruiting cycle?
Sorry for 20 questions
OM.. Think Benito JonesQuote:

We're gonna need some WRs bad in this next class. Is there anybody we're looking at?
They are first cousins I believeQuote:

I don't see Bowie being an SEC WR. DB yes he can be a very good 1. They'll sell him on playing WR then move him to defense when he gets there.Quote:

What a disaster. Clinton has always been a stronghold, yet now bc we refuse to pony up Ole Miss has the best players locked up before every recruiting cycle. We're officially on an uneven playing field. And it's our own fault.Quote:

That's the mentality that makes us lose out on these players. It's never too early. If you didn't learn that this year then I'm sorry you can't get that through your thick skullQuote:

We need to get off to a fast start in this class & build momentum throughout. After the Sh** show we saw this year, it's never too early to apply pressure.
Of course, I'm sure we'll get off to a fast start, only to see Mullen apply for every open D1 job & screw us.
We got the best player this year as well, but we need tons of good players. We must recruit nationally next year & get guys interested early. There aren't 35 players in the tri-state area that we can get that are SEC caliber.Quote:
