Is Blanton's firm representing only Ole Miss, or does signing MJ mean it is for regardless? The timing of this.... hmm.

I’m guessing he is going to wait until after the season to decide? Or is it done that he’s leaving?

Malik Heath signed with him last week

I guess I'm out of the loop so maybe someone can explain it to me. I don't know who this Blanton guy is but from his Twitter it looks like he represents college athletes (from any school?) in regards to NIL and he is an obvious Ole Miss supporter and openly advocates for kids to sign with Ole Miss.
And he represents Malik Heath.
Does he get a percentage of anything the athletes receive?
Is there anyone with MSU ties that does the same thing as Blanton?

Something to consider- lawyer friend of mine says that one of the biggest issues with the NIL is that it makes it legal for anyone from any fanbase to pay athletes on our team. The implications of this are that this could open up anything from point shaving to throwing games, all paid under the guise of NIL.

That's a great point even swaying players to transfer to their respective schools.

after the way the flip went down - and it seemed to have an element of intent, I doubt Leach is interested ... and I wouldn't blame him
OXFORD, Miss. (WTVA) - Ole Miss campus police ask students to behave at future baseball games following a recent incident.
The university said students were reportedly throwing rocks at Georgia baseball players during last weekend's series.

It is already speculated that it will create a farm system for the better programs. OM better enjoy Corral because in the future, players like that won?t be with MSU or OM once they?ve shown their worth if there?s much time left in college. That?s why they don?t have to worry about Arch. He might go to OM, get playing time that he wouldn?t as a freshman at a bigger school then transfer to a Bama or UGA and the new NIL makes that much more likely.

Tbh, the upper level schools might talk players into signing with certain programs for experience and development, knowing that they will be able to transfer over after a year or 2. Schools like ours will become almost like JuCos for the uppers at that point.

I do not like this, I do not like this at all.

What is the source of your rumor??

It's not going to work like that.

MJ isn't going to be transferring to State. You can forget that. It's not going to happen.

Is that a mutual thing or one sided?

No idea if he wants to transfer to State, but we aren't interested. I'm not convinced he wants to leave OM anyway. He's fully invested there. Just signed on with Blanton too. His drama needs to stay in Oxford.

So says you, but it very well could work exactly that way.

Agreed!

MJ can kick rocks.
It's one thing to flip to OM, but to orchestrate it the way they did? Nah, stay at OM or transfer somewhere else. I don't care. The fact he can't get on the field with OM's defense the way it is pretty telling too.

What's the point of the portal if we act like we don't want players that we wanted before because of recruiting drama?
