    D1 Sports in Jackson....new arm of the Network?

    Is the network getting going with Shay Hodge, Mike Espy and the newly hired CJ Johnson at D1 Sports using them to help get some players who train there taken care of.....curious timing with the recent decommit from us...hmmmm

    That has been there for a while and doesnt have much to do with E Jai. Will Rogers goes there a lot too FWIW. Im not telling you those OM guys are going to help us bc they aint but its not a network deal.

    They do a good job training the kids or the kids wouldnt want to go

    It's coming... Part Deux***

    I hope the trainers involved know and understand the risk they'd be taking, but considering who those three are and their experience with their own recruitment, I doubt they're concerned about blowback.

    Some of those guys work out at my gym and I've been hearing some low ramblings about "bringing in the talent" and getting them prepped for college. Now that's a pretty broad statement but given OMs history...I wouldn't put ANYTHING past them.
    Yes- that Behr

    You know Michael Oher is part owner....by a former Bulldog is the other part unless he sold out because of all the OM influence..*.....wait wasn't there just a thread about this? Fletcher Cox is probably the most notable guy who has trained there.

    Why our fans continue to give Ole Miss the benefit of the doubt despite their continual cheating is beyond me. Of course they are not going to just hand out bags of cash and backpacks at the door and make it very obvious- especially while they are on repeat violator status. But having that kind of access to mentor kids doesn't make it hard for them to make cheating happen and make it less suspicious. They certainly aren't helping MSU even though I'm sure they try to come of as being "for the players". Of course in their opinion every great player should go to Ole Miss I'm sure.

    I'd be 100x more surprised if they are not cheating than if they are.

    Exactly. Cheating is part of Ole Miss's culture. And as we know- "Old times are not forgotten."

    I think the real question is what does MSU do about it? I want their ass out of my hometown personally.

    There is the Baptist Healthplex. They have everything in place for football training themselves.

    An aside, How does MC not win a title, or even get to one, with all that talent and huge facilities like D1 and Baptist, not to mention all the money and resources on campus? Germantown too for that matter. They're never very good.

    I think the thing about MC is they usually lose when they run into whatever 6A team has a ton of legit D-I prospects whether it's Starkville or this year Horn Lake and their training and resources gets "leveled out" so to speak. I don't think MC has had a Dandy Dozen guy since Tobias Singleton. When MC won it in 1999 they had five Dandy Dozen guys on the team plus a lot of other good players as well. Germantown could be really good with the right coaching and talent. Also- Gluckstadt isn't as big as Madison.

    Our fans are obsessed with things they can?t even prove. They?d rather have someone or something to blame.

    Boobie D. has been doing some training in Jackson. If there was a way to help set him up, invest in him, in opposition to d1...

    Because of genetics. Germantown players can’t run and jump and aren’t as strong as West Point players. There is not a D1 in West Point.

    .... and that’s the answer. State people just need to step up and get involved.

    As for D1 inMadison, we can call them cheaters blah blah blah. But that is helluva way to get in with the up coming talent and get to know them and deliver the sales pitch for OM. I’m sure Joe Slow from Germantown will have to pay full price for training at D1. I’m sure Dandy dozen from wherever will get his D1 fees paid. But.... it is the environment of big time recruiting. Get in the game or get left out.

    Or get a commit to wear a wire. That's what I'd do personally if it were me

    Not true. You have no clue so it is best just not to imply anything if you don't know.
