All I've heard on the Bo Bounds show is that Ole Miss was planning on having a top 15 recruiting class this year.
They are currently ranked 80th with 3 commits, they offer a new QB about every day, & many of the top players in the country are already committed.
Are they just going to start cheating against & attempt to flip guys or what?
Not really sure what they are doing or selling.
My money is on the “cheating” part...
I don't know how they can start cheating again if they never stopped...
But, yeah...they will get busted again in no time.
I've said before that their mascot should be a cheetah!
They came in thinking that Kiffin's name alone would land them some studs, so they cast a wide net and have missed on nearly everyone because Kiffin isn't as good a recruiter as they think he is. He's dry and has no personality. Plus he has a member on his staff that killed a kid
They are crazy negative on the Spirit Recruiting board. It?s become a pretty entertaining daily read! They are turning on Yancey in droves!
They certainly tampered, but they aren't cheating right now like they did in the Freeze era. Not yet at leastQuote:

Here is what is interesting to me:
1. Kiffin said he took the Ole Miss job because they had won before & were in the SEC
2. Ed Orgeron told Kiffin to not take the job because he wasn't the right "fit"
I don't think Kiffin knew why Ole Miss had won in the past. It's like he was so intent on getting back into the SEC that he didn't do his homework on why they actually won in the past & WTF Orgeron was talking about

I've seen rumors where Kiffin has contacted the school administration and the IHL about removing the confederate monuments from campus because it's hurting recruiting. The statues will reman on campus, but will be placed in an area on campus out of sight.
Kiffen recruited well cause of Coach O and Saban. Plain and simple. He gets the benefit cause he was under Saban. Hell I could have led a Bama offense with the receivers and RBs they have had to a title.
Who gives a shit what Ole Miss fans think of their recruiting?
Ask it on their board
The "fit" O is talking about is a scumbag like Hugh Freeze who reels the fanbase in with his good ole southern faith while knowingly allowing the boosters to do whatever the hell they want. In order to be successful, they need a coach to gtfo of the way. They need someone like Freeze whose dream job is Ole Miss.Quote:

I have no idea why people thought Kiffin was a good recruiter. Ole Miss hired a coach that has been fired from 2 elite jobs because he simply isn’t a good head coach. The guy had some decent success in the G5 but even there he had a losing season in year 2 in a league a good coach with Florida athletes should dominate.
Part of the problem is OM fans just knew twitter lane kiffin. You would expect that guy to be a great recruiter. Truth is lane is shy, an introvert, and awkward in person. He will recruit fine, but he is not going to be knocking down top 15 classes left and right.
because it's entertaining perhaps ? .... nothing wrong at all with this discussion - it beats the hell out of talking about Covid-19Quote:

I think he bit off more than he can chew. They want him to stake his coaching career on out of control boosters and red duffel bags full of cash.Quote:

Nafoom is still a thing? Man I thought that place died years agoQuote:

There's no evidence to support the idea that he can elevate a program's recruiting standard.
Yeah, but ?The Grove!!!?....Quote:

Going to get VERY interesting the next few years with Arch Manning's recruitment on the horizon. It's already interesting to me that the Manning's appear to be keeping it close to the vest. Probably a combination of being in Louisiana in LSU territory and how Peyton's recruitment went with Ole Miss fans absolutely melting down when he choose Tennessee. Ole Miss hung Archie in effigy in Oxford then. I can only imagine what it would be like today. If he's still around Kiffin will be caught in the middle of it. LSU doesn't have a David Cutcliffe type on staff now that Brady in in the NFL either that Ole Miss can hire away to give them the "in" that they need.Quote:
