You guys holding out for State to "do something" are going to be disappointed. We folded that tent up and went home.
Yeah. I'm clueless. I don't ever know much.... I'll leave it to you to tell everyone all the facts. I'm just internet rumor boy. Who by the way said, he was either going to oxford or staying here. While half the board said there was 0 percent chance he goes to ole miss including the dude who started this thread. I'm not going to get into a pissing contest w you or anyone. My record stands on it's own. Have fun.
Let that clown go! He'll be forgotten in 2 months when the season kicks off. He's not an all SEC talent/mentality player in the secondary so good riddance. This will also kill their team continuity if he starts immediately. Players there will not be happy and it will cause the same favoritism rift Moorehead caused bringing his guys over current players.
I thought JoMo was the chessmaster? Everyone said "he was playing chess, blah, blah, blah"...?...Hell, he couldn't play tiddly winks, much less chess...?...None of this will go anywhere......I just don't see how you prove it...
Joe pumped kids full of hot air.
You know why Mullen was a crappy recruiter? because he told kids the truth & while that may have prevented us from getting some guys, it made sure that the guys we did get were DAWGs & our NFL production proves that.
Ole Miss can't win by attracting the type of players they attract. In reality Jones was an Ole Miss type kid the entire time.
Sadly, we need more Mississippi kids to be MSU types. I fear those are becoming fewer & far between.
Alabama gets MSU type guys, not Ole Miss guy. Don't kid yourself. The kids that go to Alabama are going to their compete their ass & know what is ahead of them. You win with those types. Not the Jones types.
Tennessee & Texas have been getting the Ole Miss types & you can't win with those types of kids. You never will
This is about as spot on of a post that you will read here. It will all even itself out. We had major locker room issues last year. You could see that on the field. The only issue with this right now is perception. We look weak to the media who doesn?t know its head from its ass and we will always be fighting for respect nationally. If we have players contemplating transferring to our rival, you don?t want that guy in the locker room. It may hurt us in the short term, but in the long run, it will make the team and program better.
Totally agree, but as it seems now, the ones that have left have been an issue through their recruitment or attitude once on campus. I also know something about Lovett that is rumored and you don?t want that on your team. I?m not going to bash the player here, but I?ll leave it with that. Both are good talents, but if they are not pulling on the rope in the same direction or more focused on their social media presence, there will be issues. You can say that social media is an issue with our players, but that?s nationally. If they stay here and compete hard, it?s not a big problem. It?s just something the coaches are always having to keep an eye on and addressing.
Turn them in to the NCAA. If we have the evidence that we allegedly do, use it.
Make it known that D1 steers players to Ole Miss and doesn't have players best interests. Promote using the Baptist Healthplex in Madison for training.
Also have Leach and Arnett do clinics at the Healthplex on the Air Raid and 3-3-5 defense.
Turn them in & prevent him from being able to attend Ole Miss.
It has nothing to do with JJ & everything to sent a message tampering like this isn't tolerated.
That or just blatantly recruited one of their players to our team.
Once Corral starts over Plumlee this season, we should go all in on recruiting Plumlee to MSU to catch 50 passes
#1 how do you KNOW they did something wrong. It's not what you think it's what you can prove. And yes I'm sure they weren't all legal I'm not stupid. #2 last time we did that and jumped the league w the cam situation, the sec crucified us. Therefore we did what we should and let the league know. Nothing is going to happen. As far as d1 nothin illegal about them telling players where they "think" they should go. Whether that's here or at ole miss. If anyone can prove they are doing something then great. Problem is nobody can. It's not that simple. I get it, people want them to pay for illegal activities, bit remember throwing rocks in a glass house gets everyone's windows broken.
If the player enters the portal based on being pre-recruited by coaches, staff, other players it can be considered tampering. Now in all reality this does occur all the time b/c players are friends with kids on other teams, etc. etc. Most of the cases schools just live with it and normally it's reserves, players that don't fit a new scheme, or players that signed far from home and are homesick or have already run up a few strikes against them in the program.
JJ does fit some of these but the big difference is there is allegedly a (disassociated) booster involved and the kid seemed to be actively pro-MSU until a mysterious weekend trip with his friends. Now as we learned from the Hangover, one weekend can radically change a person but this happened really quick seemingly out of the blue and it's to your archrival which is why all the fire around this one.
Let's say it's all above board somehow and he just wants to go play with his old coach and his buddies. Fine, but hopefully standard transfer rules will apply and he'll sit a year. I'm sure they've promised him he won't have to do that because I'd have to be really unhappy with my current place to give up a starting job to go sit a year somewhere else.
Also possible that the new coaching staff could care less although it does seem they tried to talk him into staying which would indicate he wasn't being a problem in the workouts and they thought he was a good player.
