2025 MSU Football Recruiting Thread

Don?t be surprised if Turner is not around after the year. A guy who doesn?t want anyone who wants ?NIL isn?t going to last. Seems they?ve already identified who they want. And there is also talks about bringing back another former player who currently coaches LB at a Big-12 school.

Right now I'm not even sure our DL talent is G5 level. It's more on FCS level. Something has to change there when u have this much playing opportunity, have the reputation we do producing DL and still nobody wants to come.

Going to be some turnover on the staff. Lebby isn't going to sit on some of these guys that don't want to work.

If there not working no need in waiting, cut bait now.

2 big 4 stars and we aren't done
Lockhart and Mitchell are big ass grabs!

Interesting phrasing.

Two big ass grabs for a defense that has been doing a lot of grab-assing lately.

It looks like a lot of guys just running by the guy with the ball. Grabbing their ass would be an improvement.

Mitchell is close with Hurstzler........ he needs talent on the D side of the ball.

[Cooterpoot]

Three 4 star players this week (1 is a 2026)
The only way to get out of the vicious portal cycle is to sign HS talent and Juco bounce backs. Then you can pick and choose your portal instead of taking the left overs.

These commitments along with the donation is a nice booster shot in the ass.

We really need all the off field good news we can get given the on field results we are going to experience this year.

Now is an ideal time to be a juco DLineman because that?s all David Turner is offering right now! Geez man?it?s embarrassing. Competing with UAB and Coastal for Juco kids is not good. The kid we took last year Sheppard, whom 34 and Bucky deemed ?NFL future?, looks overmatched on this level and yet we continue to offer some of the same type of kids.

We haven't offered a bad Juco DL this round. Not to say we won't but we've offer Hardy and Coleman and both a players. Henry is an edge guy that's a stud too. The problem is we don't have a single SEC caliber HS DL committed.

We'll have to dole out the funds to keep Henry from what I'm hearing.

Hardy is in the boat

Top 25 class currently. Basically down to a few HS prospects but mostly portal and Juco. Juco class is stout and it needed to be, I think we'll see two more jucos in the boat soon. Portal is where we need to make hay!

So I did a brief scan through of the recruiting thread and it seems as if there's hope for Cunningham yet. What about Dear and Knight? Are we okay with not getting Knight since we have Taylor? Weird to see Notre Dame get one of the best players in the state, but maybe that's an area where NIL helps.

JUCO's all on defense I am assuming?

I would take Taylor over Deuce for our offense. He is pretty much the prototype for a Veer and Shoot scheme.

Cunningham I don't know. I would definitely like to take him. I wouldn't be surprised if we get Dear and Cunningham back in the portal if they go to Bama first. Much better chance at flipping Cunningham IMO especially if we perform well the second half of the season.
