New OL commit. Kison Shepard OL from Germantown
Anyone know anything on him? He's showing some very low level offers alongside some pretty high level offers. Not much in the middle.

Buddy is a coach there. Says he has the legit size listed (6?5 315) and is athletic. Got some nasty to him too. Will need a lot of work on feet and technique. Good redshirt guy for us

It's worse than ever in "expert" prediction. So do your own due diligence if you want. Otherwise stars are largely meaningless.
Xavier Gayten commits on 6/7 as unranked.
Xavier Gayten is listed as 3* on 6/10.
As if recruiting stars needed less meaning.
I trust in this staff to find guys who embody the Mississippi State toughness while showing enough talent to compete in the SEC. As long as we have a full class, I don't care how many stupid stars rankings we get.

For those of you who were dogging our staff for offering the academy TE out of bama, can laugh at yourselves now. Bama offered him. I'm sure when he commits to them he will be a high 4 star. He is a freak. Hate bama offered. But part of it.

Lol appears our HC and his staff might just have an eye for talent and have a plan in place.

Wasn't even the best TE at camp. But he's better than the talk was.

Too many people look at the schools that players go to and make assumptions.

Who was the best?

Too many people look at stars by crap rating sites. Seeing offers from elite teams/coaches means more to me than a fake number ESPN puts on someone.

Yeah, I wish 247 would take them out of the composite. At least 247 and Rivals try a little bit.

Looks like our private commit of two weeks is about to "flip" to Ole Miss. 4* safety from Tuscaloosa.
According to the OM people at least.
That'll sting.

Sure he is a good player and hate that we lost him (assuming he does indeed sign with Ole Miss) but if he was a true difference maker and from Tuscaloosa wouldn't Saban have offered?

Apparently committed to our staff two weeks ago, secretly visited OM yesterday, and flipped today.
Doubt a kid with that kind of character does much in life. History shows that kids who love recruiting games rarely amount to much. Not gonna freak out too much with this one.
