Just know that there is a family of Auburn pocket padders in Greenwood. Same ones who got Jermaine Whitehead. Don't count the chickens just yet. Funny how the recruitment opens up after the MS/AL All-Star game. Plus, the quotes about how Ole Miss is always his team, but......
Add in Yancy saying ( just now) that his mother is scheduled to move to Oxford in a few weeks and he would be stunned if he doesn't end up a Reb
everybody's recruiting except State...
yup. Our coaches just sit in a room planning our next SWAG letter to send outQuote:

I don't think they mind working for him. Freeze and staff seem to work pretty hard when it comes to recruiting.Quote:

What's the deal?
How does the NCAA not realize that Epps' mother is moving to Oxford for a job. Could it be more obvious?
When a player decommits from MSU, he is gone. He almost never re-commits. A player decommits from OM and our posters still feel like he ends up at OM.Quote:

Well, when someone truly de-commits, they usually ARE gone from anywhere. When a player "de-commits" from Ole Miss only to miraculously re-commit to Ole Miss after some soul searching and 5 AM wake-up calls two days later...that's not really a de-commitment.Quote:

Which is still a yancyism to calm sheep. If he/she were totally satisfied with their arrangement, he would still be committed wouldn't he?Quote:

I think Demetric Warren was the first guy to break the actual story, and he predicted Epps to MSU last week.
Keith on the 247 board says Auburn hasn't even mentioned Epps and that they are full at TE and WR.
Could we win a Flipmas battle? Why do I feel so skeptical? Oh wait, I remember.

Could it be the tweeter and not the school?Quote:

He could re-commit tomorrow. Since they don't have anyone to flip from elsewhere, they are flipping their own.
I just can't get to excited about this. Since they just put on that show with Hampton, decommitting for 3 days just to have a ceremony to celebrate flipping back to Ole Miss, i'm just not buying into Epps not ending up a bear.
It's recruiting so you never really ****ing know what the hell is going on but this one isnt like Hampton so far. Yancy was all "wink-wink" about Hampton. He's not that way on this one.Quote:

I took her tweet as it was intended for Yancy. He's been the only one who is speaking matter-of-factly about her job. All the other site guys (both MSU & OM) have toed around it with heaving doses of "allegedly" and "possibliy". Yancy came out and said Mom is moving to Oxford for a new job in a cpl weeks. I'm about to go full spit balling here. While that may be or is true, you have to wonder about her current employer and if they had not gotten notice. I'm sure the mom doesn't want her job situation being played out on a message board especially the insinuation that it's tied to her son and his recruitment.
If you know how to wade through Yancy, it looks like he's laying foundation. If he was truly an "OM lock" b/c of a job for mother, I doubt he would make that public. He'd just get cute with wink wink. The way he is playing it is conditioning the sheep that IF they lose Epps, it's b/c someone outbid them or made mom a better offer.
Engie nailed it in his post earlier about how to interpret Yancy. Strictly going off how Yancy is playing this situation, I'd say MSU stands a good chance as of now.
good postQuote:

Exactly. Yancy wouldn't have thrown out the nugget about mom's job if he didn't think it was an EXCELLENT chance that they had already actually lost him. He's preparing the flock. IF he REALLY thought it was a great chance that Epps would stick with them, he would have thrown out nuggets with sunglass smileys and hinted that things were fine.Quote:
