No, I'm just in the Christmas spirit haha
ETA... it would've been BA if that really were the case, but I'm not that cryptic

I’ve said Mingo isn’t happening and I still believe that barring something crazy. He’s all over the draft angle they’re selling and we can’t offer that.
I've learned that WRs are by far the most narcissistic bunch out there. For most of them, as long as they are getting thrown to and being talked about and their draftability is good they really could not care less about being on a team worth a crap. That's why OM can continue to recruit good WRs even though the program is going down in flames.
I think we are doing the right things to rectify it though. We have a WR coach from the NFL. We are throwing the ball more. I also think that going the JUCO route and guys like Guidry having success will help. And hopefully Payton too.
Hopefully our staff is mentioning that the only reason that they are keeping Longo around is so that they will sign with Ole Miss and that he is about to be gone.
We have everything going for us. Need to keep the key coaches intact, highlight UMs mess at every opportunity and make our case. I would love for the defensive staff to stay completely intact for this year. Got to make Shoop the happiest guy on the planet.
A list of our commits/targets that are signing early would be nice so we can divide them into December and February signees.
Things seem to be lining up for a strong finish.
Any OM receivers who have played under Longo, when they see an NFL playbook, it won't have anything even similar to what they saw in the OM playbook. They can put receivers in the NFL, based on their skill set before they got to OM. There is no development up there on offense to help anybody get to the next level. Hopefully Mingo will finally realize this unless he is just determined to go to OM.
Who do yall think are the next 3-4 commits? I say Derick Hall, Charles Cross, Kevon Glenn and Dawand Jones in that order.
I think Witherspoon is holding out hope for a Bama or Auburn offer before he tells us yes.
Tn and Um working Witherspoon pretty hard.
He visited Tn and did not get an offer. TN and OM are working Gray hard if that's who you mean. Witherspoon's season ended in the second round of their playoffs and he did not have a good night. I'm wondering if we are still that interested considering we are getting Walker. We have precious few spots left so if his offer is commitable he should take it asap.
