The whole thing is totally weird. Supposedly he and his family love the program and Starkville. Also, we supposedly gave him an NIL deal pre-settlement that would be really tough for anyone else to come close to legally. And, on top.of that, we have now hired a championship level coach that everyone believes is one of the very best in the nation. Yet, somehow we nearly lost him? Like I said, totally weird.
