I agree, but why didn't you do that when you were our HC? (grins)

Any good news this weekend?
No great news that?s for sure...we are still in the hunt for Brule and Lovett but Lovett really liked Florida. He said the academic facilities were much better there and he would be comfortable going there. I don?t think we can get our hopes up for Wednesday.....the real test is 2019
I highly doubt that anyone is going to say where he is going right now. Different people have diffirent ideas, and some have more information than others, but I imagine if a decision has been made for certain it would be his family that knows right now. If somebody posted that he was going to MSU now, it probably would be like Shotgun's breaking news that he was committing to ARK the other night, with no factual information to substantiate that he was. It would have sounded more intelligent if he had said he heard or he thinks, but to say 0-4 to ARK was uncalled for and then some of ya'll run with this and go ballisitc in major meltdown mode. All I was saying was that he didn't committ to ARK the other night, and MSU is still in the picture. Let's just see how it plays out on signing day before we hold up the white flag.
I think people normally visit FL for vacation or fun. I believe this would be the case in this situation. Well, we aren't getting Eddie Smith unless Bama loses his fax number, but otherwise the sky is not necessarily falling, so let's just see how it plays out.
Agree that the real test is in 2019 but we have to get more than 15 SEC worthy players out of this class so what happens Wednesday is still a big deal. Like I've said before, overall I really like JoMo and for the most part this staff, however, the one red flag to me is how little of a bump we seem to be getting on these official visits. On the surface we don't seem to be making a significant impression on a lot of these guys based on the vibe I'm getting from their reactions afterward.
Brule is saying all the right things. We'll see if we can keep those feelings for 3 days. Lovett isn't going to Florida. Feel good about him being at MSU. Reed will be at MSU. Now we neee to sign 2 OL out of Jalan Robinson, Cameron Young, or Kameron Jones.
How does LSU not offer this kid? Seems crazy that us, tenn, and even bama are fighting over this kid while LSU does not even show interest. Is bama reaching here? I am not running down the kid bc I obviously very much want him... just seems no LSU offer makes smith seem like a non-typical bama recruit

Does not look like bama will get surtain, Campbell, or griffin though.
Oh I agree it could be better for sure. However you never know with OL. We have had multiple 2 stars become good OLs and 4 Star busts. Of course you want to get the most talented for sure. At this point though sign em and see.
Can?t miss in ?19 though. Gotta have a good OL class for sure next year.
Two back to back terrible OL classes will have us going 5-7 again in a couple of years. We need to hit on the 2019 croots and juco hard in the next couple of years. I would try like heck to get some transfers in also. I wonder if there is any chance we could get lashley back if he continues to sit at Bama
