Ignorant kids buy into it
Trust me I know Madison VERY well. MSU fans in Madison could pay MC players every bit as much as Ole Miss fans could. There is no MSU equivalent of XenaReb there though. We don't have anyone even trying.
Honestly, though- if there was someone the MSU equivalent of XenaReb in Madison it would result in an all out recruiting Civil War that would be incredibly ugly.

Worst developmental program in America
Watching the replay of LsU Texas game, they said Texas last 1st round draft pick was Vince Young. That was 2006. That is 13 years. Did they have one this year? That is really unbelievable.

Jones hasn't been announced yet by Ole Miss & I'm sure there is a reason for that. Draw your own conclusions
I have no idea if something will come out that will preclude him from going to OM or not. Also not sure how hard our administration and coaches will even pursue the matter. But I do know that if anyone believes JJ spent the entire weekend in Oxford BEFORE he entered the transfer portal and there was no illegal contact or tampering then I guess you will believe just about anything.

Agree.
I think we'll pursue it to the fullest extent because of the broader ramifications & protecting the program.
Even if we don't succeed, a line needs to be drawn

I think we'll just deny his waiver to play immediately. Which is probably all we can do at this point.

I'm sure we can investigate & hand over findings

2015 - Malcolm Brown
2013 - Kenny Vaccaro
2010 - Earl Thomas
2009 - Brian Orakpo
2007 - Aaron Ross
2007 - Michael Griffin
2006 - Michael Huff
So Vince Young is the last offensive 1st round pick that Texas has had. All these guys are defensive players

2015 was the last year. ESPN announcers are always getting things wrong. Still four years. I think there was a bunch of Guys from State of Texas that was drafted in first round. How did Texas miss out on them. Heck did A&M have a first rounder this season or last season?

Maybe the guy who said it left out the offensive part, I know during the Egg Bowl they said couple of times Ealy was from Jackson Prep out of Hattiesburg.

Here is all you need to know about the University of Texas' evaluation ability
Pat Maholmes - Tyler
Drew Brees - Austin Westlake HS
Andy Dalton - Houston
Chase Daniel - Irving
Nick Foles - Austin Westlake HS
RG3 - Copperas Cove/Ft Hood
Case Keenum - Abilene
Andrew Luck - Houston
Baker Mayfield - Lake Travis HS (Austin)
Kyler Murray - North Dallas
Matt Stafford - Dallas
Jarrett Stidham - Stephenville
Ryan Tannehill - Big Spring
Dak Prescott - 15 miles from Texas boarder
That's 13 NFL QBs from Texas & none of them played at the University of Texas.

Recruiting Texas high Schools is Different. Texas High School coaches believe that a commitment goes both ways. Which is good and bad. Texas, and A&M have had trouble in the past with committing " cannot miss" prospects early, that stopped developing.
If you remember several years ago, Mullen dropped a Texas QB, and his head coach threw a fit. https://thespun.com/sec/mississippi-...et-to-graduate
Reactions like that from coaches really hurt.
Not to mention all the Big money donor coaches

Youre exactly right. Also, i would add there are alot of XenaRebs out there that we don't know about. I've never met that type person in the MSU camp. I am NOT taking a shot at MSU with that statement.....I think its creepy to stalk and buy kids you don't know...even ones you do know.....but anyway.....and thats why we lose recruiting battles to them from the WEst Point brothers in the 80s to Doug $20 Buckles to this fiasco.

I guess Texans do really think they are better than everyone else. All that sounds crazy especially when you factor in how bad they want to win and no Texas school has won a NC since 2006 and none have not been in the playoffs. Sounds like they have a case of stubborness and too much pride.

Coupled with the fraud that is recruiting rankings... easy to find the Jedavian Clowneys in High School. Hard to find the JJ Watts. UTexas was getting commitments in 10th grade... and Keeping them.
Then add on the guys worth billions "consulting" the coaches on who to recruit and who to play. Imagine the Chaos on the MSU sideline if all us assholes were standing screaming at the head coach in the game. and the coach knowing we could gather our pocket change for his buyout at halftime. That's reality at Utexas and A&M. Utexas has 2,195 alumni worth over $30 million each, combined wealth $463 billion.

Sidenote but after the 98 Cotton Bowl I've never hated a fan base (other than Ole Miss) more than Texas. I hope they fail in every endeavor they find themselves in from academics to athletics.

I'm not sure we have a say in the waiver. I think all we can do is present evidence of tampering that would have the NCAA disallow the transfer to OM. Whatever school he is allowed to transfer to would be the one that would petition the waiver for not sitting out a year and the NCAA would decide based on the merits.
