Our current ranking should actually be better than it is bc ducking isn't rated. It will probably hurt our avg per recruit though
If there is 1 thing that fandom does, it is that it makes you consistently inconsistent.

I was meaning the broader "you", not "you" specifically. Probably should have said "makes fans"

Ole Miss doesn't recruit based on need. They go for the splash, hence the reason they blown up classes of recent years really did blow up in a bad way for them.

He wants to be dual sport. He's a dang athlete and can go get it in the OF. And having to call pitches against him was no fun.
But I don't see legit football programs letting their QB play baseball long term. That's why I think OM is the best choice for him.

He and Ealy could be a heck of an outfield duo at Ole Miss.

Maybe so. But I have to wonder how long both of them play both sports. Hell OM may not care and may let them do it long term. Great publicity for them and that's all them care about.
But universities with a solid commitment to football don't have their highly rated kids playing baseball at the collegiate level for multiple years unless they are damn good at both.

Yep. It's a headline, and they're all about those.

Some are worried about lack of star power in June, but I'm more worried about keeping the class together once more accurate rankings are done. MSU is always the go-to hardware store for the late round needs of the West. It's gonna get ugly when the same thing happens to us this time that happened last time. How's that for negadowner shit..

I edited my post later to include the statement "unless the player is damned good at both". Which Kyler Murray was.
He's the only one I can think of that's been good enough to play both at a high level for multiple years over the last decade.

LSU had two starting football players on their last baseball national championship. May not be a coincidence it was their last NC. If you have elite athletes you let them play.

Their last championship was in 2009. I think it's safe to say the landscape has changed significantly over the last decade, which is why I used that.
The evolution of the ratings systems for recruits and the money now in college football compared to a decade ago is insane.

We offered but neither side really pushed towards each other. I expect he'll commit to OM as a DB.
