Dropping Dolcine correct? Patterson being dropped as well.
That would leave us 20 spots. Can someone update us as to who all is out there we could potentially close with?
Any potential surprises that Moorhead could pull?
I'd like to know too. If the way I understand it is correct and we can only sign 23 the next two years I really really hope we sign a full class.Quote:

I'd kind of like to see us evaluate Dylan Spencer at the MS/AL ASG this upcoming weekend. Committed to USM and from Madison Central. Probably more of a C/G type.Quote:

And can someone explain to me why we're interested in Ruiz with Christmann coming back? Is Jace going to continue the MSU kicker tradition of going to dental school and skipping his senior year in college?
Because Christman is limited and we need a better kickoff guy too.
Our HS OL recruiting is pretty weak this round. I don’t believe either of those guys will get offers though.Quote:

One of our commits was 2nd team all state in 3A football. That's a little scary. I don't think the other guy made any of the All state teams. Long story short, if Ole Miss takes Marcus Johnson, I think we will be alright.Quote:

It really has been. We have 20 commits and 18 are from MS. Then you have Marks from GA, and Key for a Juco in Cali. Honestly, we are the best offer for most of our commits.Quote:

Grad transfer Kicker from ASU.
We got the kicker transfer I mentioned. He's got 2 years here. Hopefully he can kick it in the end zone.Quote:

Our fan base is insufferable. We are ranked 20th right now and will get 4-7 more kids on board. Moorhead is doing what he needs to do to elevate us some in recruiting. And in a down year talent wise in the state with some of the top talent potentially going juco, he's got us in a decent position. We should finish Top 10 in the SEC because we will NEVER finish ahead of Bama, LSU, Georgia, Florida, Auburn, and TAMU. So best case scenario is 7th. And we will always be in the same as SC, Tennessee, and OM. So 7-10 is where we need to be and that's where we are.
The most encouraging thing to me at this point is we are ahead of where we were last year before the All-Star games start. Meaning I'm expecting at least a couple of guys to go up. My only complaint this year so far is not landing Xavier Hill.Quote:

There's been no real appreciable difference in recruiting
I would say disappointing. That first full year of recruiting is harder across the board for any new head coach. A lot of times you can keep the class you walk into together and he did that. It's the next year that's so tough. Think Mullen's first full year of recruiting his class was in the 40s so there's precedent there. But I would have liked to have gotten 1 or 2 more kids like a Mingo.Quote:

Hill is done. No shot.
Good job by Dan of taking advantage of 2014.**Quote:

Not as high as we hoped but 2015 was his best class the cycle after the #1 ranking. Then back to normalQuote:

Byron and his parents loved Saban, we weren't getting him. He really liked Moorhead and Baker and wavered a tad but he was never really close to flipping(of course Baker going to Bama cemented the deal even more). Just a side note, Byron and his family did not like Mullen at all and that turned him off State to begin with.Quote:

We can save that for another thread .. no need to bog down the recruiting thread with that.. it gets bogged down enough already with bullshit
Agree on all! Always appreciate your info!Quote:
