Huge Commitment Coming Soon

John Farley said this in his daily updates today:

"Mississippi State is in great position to land a commitment from one of the nations top athletes very soon"

Went on to say that he can't give any hints b/c it's a big story for him and his site and he can't let the cat out of the bag yet. Said to stay tuned and he'll let us know soon.

Posters went on to guess different guys, some '14,'15, & '16, and John was quick to say he didn't say any of that and those were all just guesses. Interesting development for sure

Football?

Yeah, I am wondering what sport as well.

I'm really enjoying Cowbell Clang, John Farley is doing a good job, especially covering the 2015 and 2016 recruits. The chats are good too.

I have no idea who the commit will be but wouldn't be surprised if its an under classman who is friends with 2016 commit Robert Washington. Someone like Moe Neal, Christian Colon, or even Eli Johnson (MR. David from Rebels 247's son)

Probably a damn track star

It's not what Farley is talking about- but we are still in the running for Bench to transfer in. He is supposedly going to meet the staff before too long

It's football related

That would be huge for us considering our QB situation but I don't think it's it even though "nations top athlete" is open ended

I really hope we land this guy.

The fact that Clint Trickett from FSU is going to West Virginia instead of South Florida means that USF may have an edge in getting Bench considering he wants to come in and compete for a chance to start this fall.

didn't Paul @ 24/7 say the same thing about 3 or 4 weeks ago ?

He just said we had a kid who was a silent commitment. Both John and Paul have been saying something along the lines of the secret commitment.

This news from John today is a little different in saying its from one of the top athletes in the nation.

Yeah, we've been hearing this for a solid month now.. Although, Paul did retweet a picture of Marlon Humphrey's wearing a State track and field shirt the other day. May be nothing, but it's still cool that he wears our shirts to school.

I get the distinct impression that we've already got a couple of 2014 "top athletes" in the boat. But none of the ones I'm talking about are surprises...

If we can land a 5 star bama legacy, it would be the most impressive signee by Mullen.

Are we in good shape to land linemen? Athletes are great, but we need guys up front esp on offense

That would be a nice pickup.

Hey Coach, speaking of Farley....what ever happened to his brother? The one that went by Farley on 24/7? I haven't been to John's new site so maybe "Farley" is posting there now and I just didn't know it.

Farley posts on Cowbell Clang and even has his own beer board to talk about and discuss random beers. You should check it out. http://www.cowbellclang.com/index.php

I dont know much about that group to be honest. I have heard from a couple of people I trust that Farley is a much better dude than Wardlaw. I hope that is the case

...commitment being landed via the ole miss method of using social media to create a fake horny whore?

Or is this commitment being landed by the old-fashioned means of a face-to-face in-house visit?

Just wondering, since some of our fans are clamoring to adopt the ole miss method.

This one was earned on our artistic creativity. He couldn't resist to be a baller with swag

I'll def vouch for that statement and John. The one thing I'll say is that as long as Ive followed John, he has never put himself out on a limb like this. That tells me he's confident about something

Haven't we supposedly been supposed to have a "huge" commitment from someone for the last--what--month now? I am sorry. Call me a Debbie Downer, but I will believe it when I see it.

Has the olemiss twitter whore sent any tweets to Robert Washington yet? Or since he is a commit, will they make their move at the eleventh hour?

I know you are joking, but Ole Miss has already offered him, and they thought that they were possibly going to get him. I think with him being in North Carolina, it will be more difficult for them to get to him, unlike say, Chris Jones.

I've pretty much stopped posting anywhere. I do support my brother's site, but I'm not affiliated with him. I'll post a beer review every once in awhile, but I mostly use Untappd. It's just easier. I left Paul's site because he let his catfish post pretty much anything he wanted, right or wrong, and defended him to no end. All that dude does is trolls premium message board forums. I don't post much on John's site because he's my brother and it will look like favoritism. His info is solid and I know for a fact that other sites have stole stuff from him and tried to pass it off as their own, ie. the Tobias Singleton stuff. To me, it's just much easier to homebrew beer and stay drunk than post own these "inside" sites. I might take up the cause here though just to piss folks off.

I agree about Paul's site. I used to be a member over there but if you said something negative even if it was truth you got down voted like crazy. I am sticking to free message boards from now on

You left because you got down voted? Really?

I can't speak for him, but I left because he let about 5 folks control his site just to get hits. Much like elitedawgs left 6pack for that very reason. If you are gonna play the holier than thou card, be holier than thou. Don't leak shit to your members so you look like an angel.

Coach34, I encourage you to read this. http://www.cowbellclang.com/football...hp?entryID=363

I am 100% certain that Bulldog Nation leads the country in recruiting websites per capita.

It is similar to other issues we have. Like most counties per capita. Most legislators per capita. Most school districts per capita. Etc etc etc...

Nothing wrong with a sincere good ol boy approach

I have no ill-will toward John, good luck to him and his site...I have a helluva lot of ill-will toward Wardlaw for reasons that cant be discussed publicly

In a way, it's kind of a shame Bulldawg Junction turned into a sham. Could you imagine a website with Paul and John Farley being run right?

That whole merger was a royal cluster- and I knew there was no way in hell that was going to work. The funny thing in hindsight was Wardlaw being all- "hey, you got your recruiting database now."

Exactly. John is on the same pedestal as Paul at this point in my opinion.

If we are being honest, John kicked EVERY one of our "recruiting guru's" tails when the chips were all on the table with Chris Jones. He was the ONLY of the bunch that, to my knowledge, never wavered for one second saying that Chris was a dawg. He laid his reputation on the line for it when no one else would -- and he was right.

If he says that a bigtime athlete is coming, it's happening. Just hope it's something unexpected as is being hinted -- since a quick search of our prospects show Jemoral Graham as the highest rated "athlete" that we are pursuing(per 24/7) -- and it's common knowledge that he is, for all intents and purposes, already a Dawg...
