Yeah, good player. Hard to get excited about any 2021 kid. I guess JoMo wanted to tweet out some good news.Quote:

This is what gets me. Joe can recruit. I think he would elevate our talent level here. But its a matter of what he would do with them once they got here thats concerning. I really am rooting for the guy, just for the sole reason that he can recruit very well and seems to take recruiting seriously. But he already has turned Dans recruits soft. Imagine what he will do to his own
He’s not recruiting better from a talent standpoint. Current class (if it sticks) will finish around 25-30.Quote:

If you're gonna compare 3rd class to 3rd class, seems comparing the 3 classes leading up to each tenure is important for context.Quote:

Mullen... 2015-17: 18th, 28th, 24th (avg 23.3)
Moorhead... 2018-20: 27th, 24th, ?
So Mullen in his first 3 classes raised our recruiting rankings over croom's last 3 by 12.6 spots.
Moorhead's 3rd class isn't complete, but he has to finish 19th this season just to tie Mullen's last 3. Doubt that happens
When it comes to recruiting, Moorhead is several spots above Mullen. There are several players here and committed that we wouldn't have under Dan, including Shrader.Quote:

4. Our highest rated guys in this class are skill guys which tend to be more hit or miss than interior guys.
All that to say I think the notions of JoMo being some elite recruiter are being grossly exaggerated and it's become the narrative with everyone that mentions keeping him.
We don't get Dak Prescott with JoMoQuote:

I'm just saying Joe gives more effort in recruiting, and therefore, will land a high end player or two that Mullen would not have. That's not saying that I want to keep Joe bc I'm getting sick of him too. At the end of the day though, we'll be around the same in the recruiting rankings bc we're Mississippi State. We're never going to recruit at a high level.Quote:

Mullen got to recruit against OM while they were being investigated. A large part of how well both OM and MSU recruit is tied to in-state class quality and rankings. Then last year we only signed 2 of the top 10 in state for a variety of weird reasons and still did ok. This year we may only get 2-3 as well but 24/7 rankings still seem a big jacked up compared to how many programs actually want some of these guys.
The big things with recruiting to me is can you go out of state and grab some guys. We did with GS, but this year we're hardly doing any of that which is a tad concerning.
Mullen also had to recruit against them while they were doing all the illegal things they did to get investigated. Which many held against Mullen at the time for getting out recruited. That definitely went both ways during Mullen?s time hereQuote:

I mean a kid like Dean was a great fit at MSU (4H kid, etc) and it was a position of huge need and we couldn't even get an official visit.
