Nathan Pickering and John Emery are my two favorite targets as of now that would really raise a lot of other eyebrows if they committed to us. The problem is that they went from both being projected Mississippi State commits to now there are 3-5 teams that are really buzzing around their radar. I guess it's just a part of the taking in the recruiting process, but I sure do hope we get those guys because then it could be like a domino effect with commits from their.
But then again we need some freakin wide receivers that are legit talented.
We mainly need Dbs and Wide receivers right now.
Players this talented are going to have lots of buzz with other teams.Quote:

Do you guys think we have a chance with Ronald Thompkins Jr?
If we are going to try and recruit at a competitive level, we have to be comfortable with this being the new norm for both in state and out of state kids. The top talent in MS is going to get looks from good schools and in a year like this, there's going to be a lot of buzz around a lot of guys.Quote:

Chance yes, expect no.Quote:

I expect to get one if not both of them.
Of course there is Ealy, who I don’t think plays college ball anyway but if he does it won’t be in Oxford.
Ari, what?s the situation with the 5 star LB from Horn Lake? Any shot?

KJ Jefferson, QB out of North Panola, says he's announcing his commitment tomorrow. Arkansas people feel like it'll be to them. I know we already have our QB, just thought maybe we could take him too.
We would take him but he's Arkansas bound. He's been their #1 target from day 1. Its very hard to get 2 very good QB's in a class.Quote:

He did just pick up an A&M offer a few days ago but I thought he?d commit to Arkansas for a while now. Originally thought Morris would go after Gunnell hard but he seems to love Jefferson, pretty good fit for that offense.Quote:

Peter Parrish definitely will. He's being recruited pretty much exclusively as a QB. Plumlee is being recruited more as an athlete with a chance to play QB.Quote:

We have 2 OLs commited, and we're on Hubbard from PA and a 6'6" instate guy (Cross). Also a guy in IMG that's friends with the King Ani. None of those 3 are super sought after by other P5 programs, but OL is so hard to project you kinda have to trust that the staff knows what to look for. We're looking to sign 5-6 OL. Steve sounded positive about Cross, but mentioned OM was still in it. The OL from Georgia isn't getting much attention because he redshirted last year in JuCo. When he gets to us I think he should have 3 to play 3. I have no idea how good he (Richardson) isQuote:
