    Good times Ole Miss. Good times coming indeed.
    You are correct. Kiffin took O to USC when he jilted Rocky Top. O was interim at USC after the Tarmac firing, and the players loved him. He went 6-1 in conference play and saved their season in '13.
    "After dealing with Ole Miss for over a year," he said, "I've learned to expect their leadership to do and say things that the leadership at other Division I schools would never consider doing and to justify their actions by reminding themselves that "We're Ole Miss.""

    That was tongue in cheek when I said he killed him, although I was serious that it might hurt him on the recruiting trail.

    Recruiting rankings in July(especially during Covid19) Don't hold any weight with me at all. At the end of day we will be around 25-35 and so will they.

    Exactly, that is where I expect us both to land per the usual unless they are cheating

    So if they finish say 19th and we finish 35th...they're cheating, if we finish 19th and they finish 35th all is right in the world?

    Wow, there were a lot of way overrated recruits in that list. And a few underrated. A reranking of that class wouldn't be Top 20.

    Buchanan being a 4 star and Cord Sandberg being a 3 star was the biggest joke ever.

    In fact, the average temp for July this year at Washington/National has been 84.0 with 25 of 28 days above 90. In Huntsville, the average has been 81.2 (a degree or so above normal). Huntsville should be pretty near the average for most of north Mississippi.
    Dude i flip tires in July and carry implements that amount to a log and I'm in my 50's.

    There are other factors when someone dies during sport workouts. It's extremely rare. Now, if they didn't allow hydration, that's another factor. Tomorrow some military selection programs will use log carries, tire flips, implement carries, etc. in much tougher conditions and with much less rest/food than college football programs. Trainees rarely die from physical exertion, as in not many over a 10 year time period. I can't think of any off the top of my head.

    If signing day was in Feb I would agree but it's in December. By this time you should be in top 50 if you are going to end up being top 30. I don't think Kiffin got it. It's going to take the Network to get them to top 30. As said Miss is high school is down this season. I will be surprised if we finish top 30. The needle is not moving at all at this point and it should be.

    No one is going to mention AJ Brown?s comments on Barstool saying he got a bag of cash before signing day?

    I bet nothing comes of it because Ole Miss sucked when he was there. Beat Alabama a couple of times and- then it would be different.

    Serious question, don’t you think OM will bring in a "special" Coach for new Manning like they did for Eli? Any thoughts or rumblings heard? I'm sure the network is already making plans.

    Absolutely. But I don't know who their David Cutcliffe would be at this point. Part of the hope of hiring Kiffin I'm sure was that he could recruit well enough to bring in a good cast around Manning. We'll see how that goes.
