McBath certainly appears to be the weak link on the recruiting front.

Outside of Green, it's been pretty ugly. I just hope we don't reach again. Save the scholarship if we can't get a good player.

They're not all corners that we're missing on.

We're about to be just fine with DB's. The only wtf moment is potentially signing the Amory kid. We offer over 100 kids each cycle. I guess we miss out on those 75 too huh? Go for a walk. EVERY SCHOOL misses on players.

Amen. We just signed a 5 star corner and I can’t recall that ever happening and guys are questioning that. I give the coaches credit. They have filled gaps. I wish we could sign or get a transfer ILB.

I will wait until recruiting returns to normal, camps, in-home visits, official visits, etc, before I judge any of these guys recruiting prowess. They are new to the area and could not meet a single recruit face to face.

Who is questioning signing a 5 star corner? I haven't seen that.
I'm questioning every other DB we've signing this class though. Hampton was a reach and will be a project. Corey Ellington is a project. Green was an awesome get, no doubt. But he's about the only thing keeping this DB class from getting an F. We've got to recruit HS DBs better, or that position will be a huge weakness in the future. Transfers can only save you so much.

Well Jason Washington was THE reason we got Green. He has also been a key in our other recruiting in TX. So while we've missed on some safeties as well as corners I can at least see contributions that Washington is making, McBath not so much. And as far as likely losing CJ Johnson, my biggest question is, if his biggest factor is really the academic reputation angle, I guess I don't really understand why he just didn't stick with Navy? Annapolis is a great education, so unless he just didn't want the military obligation that comes along with that, I'm not sure what the point was of not staying true to that? And Navy football is every bit as good as Northwestern or Duke.

I wasn't referring to you. However, I take transfers apart of recruiting as well.

I'm glad I'm not the only one saying get a legit MLB. I think we'll be OK at LB but not getting Strong gives us some questions at that group.

And then it doesn't help when you have MSU alumni acting like their degree is a GED certificate.
I've worked with Northwestern grads and we both made the same salary and they never looked down on my Mississippi education.

It just seems like we always have room, no matter what we do.

And Northwestern owns us in football as well.
