    I am very interested in how the Rawlings recruitment turns out.

    This is a great test as to our staffs ability to identify and recruit MS kids. There will be no shenanigans from either side that you might have with a poor kid being offered (you fill in the blank: money, car, momma a job, etc.). As a matter of fact the playing field is slanted toward Ole Miss being the kid grew up a UM fan and his older brother attends there now. We get the kid; we develop him and he turns out to be a good player, I will be impressed and proud of our staff. UM gets the kid, then hats off to them. They took a recruit away from us in the last week of recruiting fair and square.

    It also interesting to me cause i know him and have known him for a long time He is the kind of kid you hope your daughter marries one day. Hell i teared up talking to his mom about how proud I was of MSU when he got his offer. I know whatever he does it will be because he feels its best for him. I think he comes to State and turns out to be a quality player for us in a couple of years, but...

    Sean is a big boy. He knows where he will best fit. He knows where family matters most. If you see his mom again, tell her that MSU will be bursting with pride to see her baby boy in Maroon and White on a crisp Fall afternoon in the future.

    I'll vote for Obama next time if we get him. Ok he can't run again. I'll think of something. This one is over. So it doesn't matter.

    Ha. No. More of a realist. The kid has family ties to them. Grew up a fan. Can't blame him really.

    Someone's having a bad day. And someone's being a party pooper. Why are you being a party pooper Homedawg?

    I don't think Homedawg is being overly pessimistic on this one. I'm pretty sure that if he ends up taking that visit to Ole Miss, then he gone.

    I'd love to have him, but it looks like we'll probably land Stallings, so we'll be ok.

    I'm messing with you. I should have put sarcastrics on my post and I apologize. Anything can happen in recruiting. Just like the player that died for Ole Miss was a huge MSU fan and so were his parents. Anything can happen.

    If I had the outlook on life that some of the folks I've encountered on here do, I would probably just stick my head in a toilet and flush. lol. Just keep breathing and loving life. Where a young man decides to play football shouldn't ruin your day.

    If he's been upfront with our staff that he'll sign with OM if given the chance, I won't be upset. If he's been committed since 10-3-13 and said all along he'll sign then doesn't, I would think that's pretty sorry

    I didn't know that. Very interesting to say the least. But if he has been this up front with the staff, then more power to him and I wish him the best.

    Has anyone looked at the posts from his dad on 247? Either that guy is genuine and loves some Dan Mullen or he's playing us like a fool. It'll be interesting to see how everything is handled...

    I'm right there with you Dash. I don't know Sean as well..but his mother means the world to me. And I have had similar conversations with her. It will be Sean's decision. And I feel like his family is at MSU. But if he flips, I would still pull hard for him. As you mentioned..he and his family are the type you want your daughter to marry into.

    Who has said it would ruin their day? He can do what he wants, we'll be fine either way...just saying that realistically, if he takes that visit, then he'll probably end up there.

    I think msstate7 was just speculating. He's not saying Sean has told our staff he would leave if offered. He was 'if'n'.

    First of all, that wasn't addressed at you, so cool the jets. And secondly, too many of our fans flip the total hell out over this kind of thing. That's all I am saying. Who has OM flipped that wasn't likely headed there anyway. I can seriously think of one person, and that's it. Brassell was never coming here. Kailo was never coming here. So, please don't bring that trash up again.

    I just don't see why our fan go in nuclear meltdown mode over a kid visiting Oxford.

    I see the if now. But my point still stands.
