2025 MSU Football Recruiting Thread

[Really Clark?]

Either would be big losses. Lockhart would be big for just a whole other issue because you lose 3 if you lose him because you lose Clark and big Lockhart. So unfortunately we're having to make NIL deals this morning, and last night, for guys that didn't play a snap this year and at best will play on special teams next year.

We better be overspending for Lockhart and crew or be very prepared to come out with strong decisions today going forward. Optics alone would more than just sting.

Yep. I feel really confident that if Lockhart flips, we will have announcement by the end of the week.

They?re toying with us now. It?s time for our Keenum, Selmon, and the money guys to have a sit down. We can?t continue to be ?Mister Nice Guys? anymore expect different results. Selmon has raised more in 90 days than Cohen did in 6 years but he is going to have tell the boosters to stop interfering with who to hire for staffs (..Turner..).

Leb needs to call Art and Kendall and whoever else to find himself a DL coach. Slide Hutz to STC and go overspend on proven DL and LB coaches.

On3 and .247 have us in the 20s overall. Pretty surprised by that reading here.

[confucius say]

We are 2-10 and probably the worst team in P4.
Signing a class in the 20s is insane tbh.

And Taylor just signed. That's huge. Most important news of the day regardless of what else happens. He's the most physically gifted QB we've ever signed.

I doubt they end up in oxford, i don't think either are difference makers.

I was told that we were taking the older Lockhart to land the younger one because he was a top 5 talent in the state.

Without a doubt. Kamario is Cam Newton if you develop him correctly.

Just a friendly reminder: kids that flip on signing day, rarely fulfill the expectations.,unless they just got last-minute offers, they are usually drama queens

Wonder if anyone has actually looked at the stats to prove that. Seems that way for us for sure cause of the Ole Miss shenanigans they pull

Correct. That is the reason we pursued Clark and the other Lockhart so hard because everyone, including Tyler, told us that would guarantee his commitment. Then he started playing NIL games. He was never going to Auburn but wanted us to up the offer. Now Ole Miss has thrown a bag at him. We are negotiating this morning and some big people are in on the discussions. Still do not feel great right now though.

This will be a top 35 class.

[StarkVegasSteve]

This will be a top 35 class.

I think we'll end up top 30. Like we usually do.

[Bothrops]

Sometimes you just have to keep sweetening the pot until you get the answer you need. Lebby's future here is in jeopardy because the DL will continue to miss the mark causing a machine breakdown for the defense. ****ing Bo Bounds was right, we are the least committed to football. I'm beginning to envy the majority of fans who don't care.

Yeah - some idiot on on3 is saying if a kid flips to a third school, he is going to suck. That is how he is justifying being ok if we don't land Lockhart.

Because if Deuce Knight, AK Dear, Ivan Taylor (stud safety that just signed with Bama) and Caleb Cunnigham all signed with us this morning, we would be complaining that we are their third or fourth school to commit to.

[Really Clark?]

Held onto to Lo Jac!!!

Held onto to Lo Jac!!!

I know it is not great to celebrate a guy signing who has been committed since June, but this feels like a big one to keep. Florida St made a late run, Louisville made a late run, Miami was sniffing around, Ole Miss was sniffing around. From everyone I have talked to this is a guy that can contribute Year 1

Looking at 24/7, it looks like Tyshun Willis signed with us and is the highest rated recruit on their site for us currently. Listed as an Edge. Idk anything about him but on the surface this looks like a huge get for us, yet no one is talking about it. Anyone know anything more?

He's going to be a LB more than an edge guy.

Comes from a 1A public school, Velma Jackson. So competition just was not much. He also kind of shut recruiting down once he committed.

[RisperDawg]

Thanks for replies. Even happier to have him since he stayed the course with us through this shit show of a season. Ha.

[StarkVegasSteve]

Unless something changes in the next 50 minutes, which it can because we were still negotiating as of about an hour ago, I would not expect Tyler Lockhart in this class.
