Still time to change it, but so far we've lost more (numbers and rating) than we've gained. That's pretty disturbingQuote:

Will Whitson will be coming in for a visit this week. He and Santana Hopper are probably the two best DL available from a production standpoint.
Eh biggest portal losses to me are Pollock and Coleman. I do wish that MVB wouldn?t have ask for guaranteed playing time, especially with getting paid, but it happened and we have to adjust. Lebby has to land the FL State kid for a perception win.Quote:

No need to be disappointed, portal season isn't over then it's a wait and see next fall to know!Quote:

Any idea who the WR commit might be? Sategna or Williams?
Who is Kromenhoek visiting this week?
Whitson has been hurt, so he's meets the profileQuote:

Also, the DL market right now is thin as hell. Schools are paying top dollar to keep guys from leaving. Sure there are some solid pieces out there, but it is a handful of guys. The WR market is flush with guys. Everyone is going to sign a WR. The problem is finding a Coleman as opposed to Kelly A. One is a game breaker, the other is a solid number 3 or 4 guys. We need a true number 1.
Those guys will be hard to find. Singleton from GT, the kid that just left Miami, Dane Key, the Oklahoma State WR, Barrion Brown who just committed to LSU, Nic Anderson, and maybe the Idaho guy are all difference makers.
Man I still can't believe we lost Coleman. That one sucks. Wonder if the door is shut now on Craver or if there's still a chanceQuote:

Thank goodness we still have the DT to get it straightened out.*** Until the end of January at least. Makes total sense.Quote:

Jeff Lebby has signed the two highest rated QBs in Mississippi State history this year.
When Coleman came out in spring did you think he was a difference maker? Talent was there but stats weren?t there at Louisville. I personally thought based on tape that Trent Hudson was going to be the difference maker over Kelly A and Coleman. Boy was I wrong huh?Quote:

He got QBs with more stars than he got WsQuote:

Idaho WR should be in to visit this week. Would love to have him, it will cost the team a good bit that gets him so we need to be more than just competitive if we want a chance.
We did a good job to just get a visit commitment. He is blowing up.
Dwyer would be a monster in this offense. He would end the drought of wrs not being drafted
Portal WR's are weird - a guy I liked - Chase Sowell, WR from ECU is going to Iowa State. That give me hope. I know Iowa State had a good year, but they aren't a power program and if they can land a guy like him, we should be able to land a difference maker as well.Quote:
