I don't know- I just don't think it means much in the grand scheme of things in this case.
LSU it is.
Since it looks like Smith is sticking with the Ogre, anything new on Carvin? We really do need another OL.Quote:

Agree, I understand different strokes for different folks and all but why does an MSU legacy from Ponotoc want to go to LSU, which has a completely different culture, after losing his LSU position coach AND we just got rid of the great OL recruit repeller (Hevesy) plus we now have a much more likeable HC? Also our program is in as good a shape right now as its been in its entire history. Some things just make you scratch you head.Quote:

The previous staff cost us Cole.
Exactly. Cole Smith never wanted to go to State. The new staff simply gave us a chance. He's always liked LSU, and honestly, people really should go with their first intuitions. 80% of late flips are emotional reactions.Quote:

That's just not true. Cole came to a practice on Thursday to commit to MSU because he thought he was going to get offered. Hev said he wanted to see him in the spring 1st. That Saturday Cole went to LSU they offered & he committed on the spot. He's been to more MSU games this year than pretty much all of our commits. He loves MSU but there is a family dynamic working against us. Odds are low that it changes between now & Wednesday but Cole was all set to visit this weekend & flip to MSU. Those plans were changed & we'll see if the tide can turn these next few days.Quote:

Good grief, another legacy dealing with a "family dynamic". As we saw with Garrison Brooks, "family dynamics" rarely go well for us. Oh well.Quote:

Hope the kid is getting to make his own decision. Point is he's not "every kid". If it wasn't for where he's from and his natural connections to MSU nobody would think twice about which school he was choosing. All things being equal MSU should have every advantage you can possibly have in a situation like this.Quote:

Why didn't he play in the AL/MS all star game?Quote:

Is T Buck leaving? He was in Cappe's last night recruiting for State. Made several phone calls to recruits while he was there.
