I will say ND is prob going to be a EE so all the late shenanigans won’t effect him.
1.) Dean
2.) Derick Hall
3.) Zach Edwards
4.) Jack Harris
Also I think Diwan Black and possible Purvis play LB at the next level. We would for sure take Black but he is 50/50 at best to get qualified from what I am told.
A lot will determine with Deans early decision who we take.
Hall is ours to lose. And take no matter what.
Harris would committ today if pressed and I think he will end up in the class. (Also might play DE)
Edwards will prob flip and sign with us. Kind of got the impression that if he wasn’t at Starkville high I don’t think we would spend near as much time recruiting him.
Prob take 3 at this position.
I'm fine with us letting Edwards go to LSU if we're able to pull Dean and Hall. Those are two difference makers!
Dean, Hall, and Harris would be awesome. Take that and call it a day.
I'm greedy, give me all 4.Quote:

Probably the best
That’s why I said it all depends on what Dean does.Quote:

You get both of them you don’t turn down Harris , and he may end up at DE and you prob don’t turn away Edwards.
Let it play out and let’s see what happens . And yeah I think we take prob 5 DL
Will get to that at some point
Ari said we'll take "6 or 7" DBs (lets say 6), and 6 OL. Add in 2 QBs, 5 DL, and you're up to 19 commits. If we take 3 LBs and 1 RB, that leaves 12 spot for WR, K, and TE. JoMo already said they probably weren't going to take a TE, so that's solved. But we want 1 RB and 3 WRs, meaning 2 spots have to come from the numbers Ari gave for DB, DL, QB, and OL. My guess is we take 1 from the DBs, and we only have a 1 QB class as the QBs Moorhead considers to be worth a spot get other offers to be the #1.
But I guess what I'm trying to say is that Aris' math is already super tight, and we probably won't take a 4th LB if we really have the 3 studs already on board. Ari can clarify though if I'm mis-remembering what he's said
Numbers will work out.. they always do.Quote:

I would agree those will be very close .Quote:

Plumlee was the 2nd QB I was including & I think they'll end up getting 6 good OL & they won't turn down a good OL 1 over their desired # if they can get it.Quote:

Agree on the quarterbacks. I think we take one definite QB (he is already committed). Then we take a second QB such as Plumlee who will start off as a QB, but has the potential to change positions if it doesn't work out. I think they want the second QB to have the potential to move positions.Quote:

People really dont understand how loaded this class is in state for 2019.
Plumlee looks like the real deal. More athletic Baker Mayfield play making ability. If we get him I wouldn't be surprised if he won the starting job over the SC kid.Quote:

I think we take 3 ( 4 if its the right guys)
Quinton Torbor
Kendrell Scury ( we are in his final 3 )
Kyziah Pruitt. ( but he better get in the boat soon)
Thats the 3 I see us getting as of today .
I like Watkins and if he was to pull trigger that might take Kyziah spot
I think Mingo ends up on Oxford
Jernigan ( ole miss commit) would flip if pushed
Jackson has shown very little interest , hearing he and mom might be visiting next week or so. Thats a step.
And again I still think JRP could end up at WR / slot guy . He is that good of an athlete
Im not saying the kid isnt a good QB . But everyone remember the name Dylan Farave ?Quote:

I think he can play , contribute and be a player at DB or like I said maybe even WR. He is a helluva athlete no doubt .
I hope Im wrong and he comes here and is an All Sec QB before he leaves.
I enrolled at State same time Dylan did, sophomore year had multiple classes with him and he was never there from the first day on, gave a nice little prelude to when his MSU tenure was ending lol.Quote:

Agree 100% with all of thisQuote:

Maybe just maybe we can get in the Dannis sweepstakes after this weekend.Quote:

Plumlee poops on Dylan Favre.
I still to this day wish the Dylan Favre deal had of worked out. More times than not, when the legit offers are not out there, there's a reason. But the PR media attention would have been great. Maybe Brett woulda moved to Old Waverly. Brett on the sidelines and shit with cameras rolling. I know, I know, but just saying.
I asked this on another board and didn't get an answer- are these guys just really underrated? None of them are ranked higher than 87 by 247. What is the deal?Quote:

Watkins is an 89 composite, Torbor was a 4*. A lot of different variables to go through but you recruit the tools that you need and obviously they have some good tools by looking at their offer sheet. Ratings go up and down but the prospect is the same, don't always rely on ratingsQuote:

I usually say in no particular order.Quote:
