I dont know but someone will come along and make an excuse for Hevesy pretty soon
We have people higher on our board**
This seems to be the usual excuse
CB to us, tall,not very big.

I've never been a proponent of the "laziness" theory, but if I'm Mullen, unless there's a detailed scouting report from Hev on my desk as to why this kid should be slow-played or down the board, I'd be putting together of list of new OL coaches today, fire Hev the day after the Spring Game, and start interviews the next week!
Other O-line losses on the recruiting front over the years have had viable excuses, but to lose an instate, legacy simply because you don't have enough information at this point to offer is absolutely damnable! If LSU has enough info to offer, we should've had enough information 6 months ago to make an offer!
I can tolerate misses because of bad evaluations...no way this is the case here!
It looks like he hasn't been to any of our camps. That's probabaly why we haven't offered. For some reason we only offer OL if they come to our camps.
He was at practice this week and we didnt offer- so he accepted LSU's
Kid was here this week for spring practice , he leaves without an offer and commits to LSU..
It's mother ****ing amazing how bad we are at recruiting OL.. no way to sugar coat it.
Still wouldn't surprise me at all if we get the kid, but no excuse if he is legit, and from all my Info he is..
If he is legit I'm sure he would have an offer. 275 lbs?
Yeah as a JR.. you don't think the kid can gain 20 lbs in 2 years.?? well he is legit enough for a LSU and Oregon offer..
Go defend your boy Hev somewhere else..
I don't go off on staff often, bu that mother ****er should get his pay check each month with a ski mask on.. he is basically robbing the university with what he gets paid..
How long must this bullshit go on?
And just for those that still question how shitty that ****er is.. and this wondering why the Oregon offer.. the OL coach at Oregon is Mario Cristobal who was where last year??. That's right ****ing Bama...
I will take his evaloution on how good a kid is over our slap**** every day...
This obviously looks crazy that we didn't offer. It is a little odd to me that om hasn't offered either. Lsu also took Brennan last season who state and om showed no interest... well om did after Brennan's coach threw a temper tantrum on twitter
Odd, why would he go to the OM camp and not ours?
Hmm
Flipmas from LSU, cause Ole Miss is now irrelevant.
As many misses as we have had on the OL- how could anybody question this offer by LSU??? That's a serious question. Bama had a guy from an Academy in South Miss start for them for 2 years. Other schools evaluate better than we do on the OL. Its been proven over and over
Personally, I don't think Hev trusts his evaluations.
I will find out what is what. Know the family well and will find what is the situation. They are very MSU, naturally.
Maybe it's a power play by Cole.
"See, you should have offered me"
And I don't trust the LUS offer, it won't stand.
It seems to me that Mullen was beaten to the punch, because he didn't think this kid would get this kind of recognition from big out of state programs. At least not this early. He looks like a strong effort kid in his Hudl film.
But as long as we put up good rushing numbers against the sisters of the poor while every decent SEC team steamrolls our weak OL, we're fine? Stats are all that matters right?**
I've been saying Hev sucks ass since 2012 and slowly everybody on this board has started figuring it out and quit basing him being "a good coach" on cherry picking stats. The bottom line is we have the talent to take a big step up in the SEC...AT every position EXCEPT the OL. Hevesy's lazy ass is single handedly holding this program back, and I'm honestly surprised our fan base hasn't taken it more personally. I get so invested in our football program, and I'm sick to death of one lazy pile of shit holding it back from an extra 2-3 wins per year and/or the chance to step up and beat one of the big boys.
I don't understand how some on this board can defend this crap. LSU not only beats us consistently, but they put more guys in the NFL consistently and recruit better than us consistently. But they defend Hevesy when we miss on an MSU legacy that LSU accepted a junior commit from?
This is why we can't get over the hump. Would love to hear an explanation as to how we don't offer him but LSU does and accepts his commit and that's a good thing for us.
