And how many WR’s are we gonna take and who are some names both in-state and OOS that we need to focus on that are showing early legitimate interest in us?
And what about RB’s? How many are we taking and what’s the run down on Howard from Starkville? Is he the kind of RB Leach likes in his offense or does Leach have a “kind” of RB he likes to recruit for his offense?
I think we get Robertson.Quote:

I think we take another RB. We'll see on if Howard sticks.
I just listened to Lane Kiffin on Dick Cross' show & I don't know how in the world this guy will recruit well without cheating his butt off.
He has no personality. I guess they are going to just buy a ton of players.
Sure sounds like a weird cat.
Maybe, but he finished 1st, 3rd, and 1st in cusa recruiting rankings his 3 years there.Quote:

Maybe so. I have no idea how good of a recruiter he is, but there's really no evidence of him being terrible at it unless you count this past cycle where he got a late startQuote:

Not unless LSU drops him.Quote:

Coach O is very likable and despite people making fun of how he talks let's be real- we all know what he is saying.Quote:

You're not paying attention are you? We get around 50% of the top talent in the Jackson inner city metro area in football.Quote:

Looks like things with Sawyer Robertson are heating up. Visiting soon & it appears his interest is the real deal Holyfield.
Personally, from what I've seen on film, he would be the best passing QB MSU has ever signed, if we ended up signing him.
Kid looks to have Russell Wilson deep ball ability. Throws into the stratosphere & drops it in a bucket
Idk what they are teaching at his HS but his dropback is pretty unique. It looks like the 80s and 90s he is almost backpedalingQuote:

Sawyer Robertson gets in tonight & leaves Sunday night. May the maroon carpet be rolled out.
Would be huge to get him on board sooner rather than later & get the WRs interested
I don't think he commits this weekend but sets the stage for a commitment later in the spring.Quote:

I'm cautiously optimistic that MSU and Leach may he a perfect time and place type relationship where experience and reputation meet opportunity and potential. MSU is the right place and he's at a point in his career where his reputation and experience is known by all.
I agree and I hope you are right. At the very least if our recruiting isn't great we have a guy that is known for doing more with less on both sides of the ball really.Quote:

IMO, this works in our favor as it potentially keeps players from making decision till after they see us play some & gives our coaches more time to develop relationships
Just something to keep in mind

What is the latest on Ty Keyes?
He won't be at MSU unless something goes wrong. He's on Auburn radar. Louisville have stepped up their efforts. As OM misses on more & more targets I think they'll come back around.Quote:

He's a very good player we just like others better. He'll be successful somewhere.Quote:
