2019 Recruiting Thread

[Todd4State]

Let it play out. See what happens tomorrow and then how it finishes in February. This staff is going to get the players, be patient.

Wise advice.

At least if Hall goes to Auburn he lands at who was his leader all year.

Are we recruiting better?

We are about to sign about the same class we always have under Mullen with significantly more in-state talent.

Stupid people are attracted to flashy things & we are not flashy enough. Problem is that athletic talent isn't biased to only smart people & MSU isn't Stanford or Notre Dame academically.

So, somehow, we've got to get kids & families that are attracted to flashy things to sign with us.

What your saying is pretty much true. It is why we are never going to recruit better than we have been because the media don't like us, therefore the recruiting services don't like us, and every staff we get will have to deal with the same bullshit as the preceding ones. The negative perception, the systematic cheating, and the exceedingly ignorant people that infiltrate our recruiting footprint. The staff we have is a good recruiting staff and the kids responded, but we aren't able to close like we need to because of the aforementioned reasons. We will sign a top 25 class, or may sign a top 30 class.

Ironically by losing 1-2 three star CB's it opens up the door for us to land four star John Rys Plumlee. That means by losing Brooks we're actually probably going to improve our recruiting rank. And with an in state player.

Plumlee’s girlfriend goes where...

[bobcat91]

Ari and IYOK stayed far away from the boards tonight. You should have known what was coming

[Todd4State]

Plumlee’s girlfriend goes where...

You tell me.

Look for James' to get substantial bump in the final rankings.

Completely embarrassing close by our staff.

We've been to 9 straight bowl games.

What is it going to take to start recruiting better?

What can we do?

I hope you are married already bc you are gd depressing.

You know what's embarrassing? Getting pissed at our staff losing an out of state kid that you were just the other day clamoring on about how our in state kids should have more pride and stay home and go to our schools.

Now James, who is from Alabama, gets interest from his in state schools, delays his announcement, and our staff is the one that should be embarrassed? Wake up and smell the hypocrisy.

We basically lost our whole CB class....3 guys... it is a big deal. If you lost 3 big contracts at work the day before they were to close how happy would your boss be? I do think we move Witherspoon to CB and still have time to fill holes but yea this is a big miss.

[chef dixon]

We seem to struggle to get a lot of other teams commits on late visits but our guys tend to go on them all the time. Could be off but just an observation

Seems like they?re finding out what SEC recruiting is all about, even though they should be well prepared considering they skipped bowl game practice last year to recruit. Are they overwhelmed with having to do recruiting and bowl game prep at the same time? I can take guys going to Bama, but losing them to Auburn and Arky aren?t good for having successful seasons. They?re usually both swing games and determine our finish in the West.

[GreenheadDawg]

You know it’s never good when IYOK and Ari are nowhere to be found. Not good at all

[StateDawg44]

Damn. The sky must be falling the way some of you are acting. As if flips don't happen every year.

[Bdawg]

With competition decreasing at CB. How do we feel with Emerson?

[Hambone]

If IF we pull Plumlee and Raydar I call today a win

[1bigdawg]

If IF we pull Plumlee and Raydar I call today a win

That would be a huuuge win.

[MetEdDawg]

Guess we are losing then. Didn't Plumlee say he's waiting until February?
