Things look fairly positive with Reese and Cushenberry even though neither committed this weekend. Those 2 with Lashley, Eiland, and Parker is a pretty decent OL class.Quote:

So have we totally raised the white flag on R. Davis since he's not even mentioned? Or is he still considered a DL?Quote:

Dowdell and turner are the only scheduled visits this week. Any chance we get a few more in?
Well I thought the other day when we thought we had him that folks were saying he had a reasonable chance to get qualified. I realize that JUCO is the stronger possibility though.Quote:

Also, he's already turned down Oklahoma State who has a very good football program and better traditional baseball program than Oklahoma. Do we think Oklahoma would be THAT much more attractive to him than OSU?Quote:

Come on guys..
Oklahoma > OSU and it isn't even close.
Does anyone actually think he will play much baseball if any here ??
It would be huge if we keep this guy... OU offer isn't good unless he signs with us..
Look, I realize OU>OSU but over the last 10 years it hasn't been by a landslide with the 2 programs. And I understand OU has the name. I'm just saying OSU has had a number of top ranked teams over the past few years and he already turned them down. I mean I'm sure a lot of national folks would definitely say OSU>MSU. That's all I'm saying. Will have to see what he does with the OU offer but I know he and his Father both agreed MSU was where he wanted to be before he committed. Maybe its a game changer and maybe its not.Quote:

All we said is that this offer from OU could be bad..Quote:

He may have always wanted to go to OU .. I have no idea..
And I'm sure if Stoops and OU know that him playing baseball is the deal breaker , if they want him bad enough they will agree to it as well..
If he doesn't visit we are all good , if he does visit I will worry...
I agree with you on the visit part. I was just pointing out something that might differentiate us from OU and that was we offered the chance to play baseball. In the end I hope the idea of playing football and baseball in the sec is enough, which I think it will be.Quote:

Here is OU247 guy on Farrer:
Got some scoop on Farrer and I am told he is a freak. The mystery is why it took OU so long to offer him after his break out senior year? He has only played wide receiver two-years after converting from quarterback so he is raw as a receiver. He is beginning to figure it out and had a great senior year catching 56-passes for 1,114-yards and 19-touchdowns. When OU didn't offer he looked around and committed to Mississippi State in December, but OU is where he wants to go. He is trying to decide whether to visit Saturday or not and OU 2017 safety commit Robert Barns says he will come up with him if that will help him. They have been friends since they were little kids.
We'll need Billy G to be magical on his in-homeQuote:

If he visits, he gone, if he doesn't, he's ours.
I like this option. Wish we could use it more.Quote:

Poor kid wanted to be a Rebel."Quote:

Are we about to land Derrick Brown?
Apparently, the UGA 247 guy is saying that he doesn't think UGA gets him. Plus his parents want him at MSU.
Mullen has his in home this week.
Any thoughts?
Derrick+ Simmons+Kobe+ Davis = potential for another "Great Wall of Hell Naw"
He did come through his UGA OV uncommitted....Quote:
