Also keep in mind 3 of the last 4 of those classes were at the absolute height of OM cheating. Moorhead hasn't had to deal with that, yet

I meant that we are disappointed that we are sitting at 23rd right now. That usually never happens to us. So I get what you are saying about OM and the more talent, but we are also seeing a lot of kids being pursued hardcore by big time programs. That usually doesn't happen. I mean Raydarious is listed on 24/7 as the 16th best prospect in MS. And he's going to LSU. How many times has LSU gone after a kid that far down the list? A stacked state means more intrusion and competition from programs that are historically better than us.

The thing is that if we ever wanna compete on the big stage we have to protect our home turf. We didn't do that no matter the reason

Hurts in the protocol. Just a matter of time.

Protocol what? I'm not convinced he'd tuck and run less than Fitz would.

Ole Miss has more money to pony up now that Ealy is out....Id be shocked if we got Mingo now. Don't think we had much chance anyway

You have no idea if that is true or not.

Steve said Dylan Lawrence is McKinley Jackson's cousin or some other close relation. Lawrence says we are his "dream school"

I realize you may have inside information but don't overplay it.

Let us know what you think AFTER their visits.

I want them both, and I'll gladly eat crow, but don't get your hopes up

Is he that unimpressive I dont see any offers on his page, but is there nothing to work with on his frame?

Wouldn't this theory also apply to UGA, since they let Lawrence out of their backyard in favor of Fields (who was also in their yard)?

Should they have simply convinced both that they needed to come to UGA to "protect their home turf"?

It's easy to keep spewing this narrative you've created, but MetEdDawg explained that with higher rated kids - more schools are going to come calling. How would you propose the coaches lock up all the talent in the state?

You talking about the school that's signed a 96 or higher rated player the last 3 classes from the following states: MS, AL, TX, FL, NC, TN, IL, NY, and PA? That Georgia? Nah, brah... you serious?

ETA... for reference, we have signed 6 and have 1 commit rated 96 or higher the last decade. All of the them are from Mississippi. Georgia in the past 3 years has signed (committed) 12 96 or higher rated players from 9 states outside Georgia.

If so, it's just one step closer Moorhead is to getting fired and one more failure

I can see mingo being hesitant to sign here. Young though I don't get... we develop dlinemen quite well and we have a potential spot open for him to start. I also understand Bama is even better at putting dlinemen in the nfl, but the depth chart will be much harder to navigate.

Most say Young is just hell bent on leaving the state. Hopefully Joe can change his mind
