Hell, Chris Jones was an example of a kid on very few radars before he became one of the most sought after recruits in the nation.
Where we are lacking is the skill offensive guys, and air it out QB types. The QB part is taking care of itself. Mississippi lacks in this ares and it seems each year the few go elsewhere. Leach going into Texas and other parts to fill these needs for his offense should only further improve it.
