Right and Hall hasn't confirmed a visit yet. He is gonna due his due diligence but that means multiple visits for him. If Harris will commit and sign the FAA you take it right then.

Yeah, I'm afraid Coats is gonna measure closer to 5'8". He wasn't 5'10" at ECCC with cleats on. Had a great year this season though.

Yeah, I'm sure that's what Steve is saying. I don't agree with that decision, as has been well documented.

It is what he is saying along with Paul Jones and others. I do not hate it. Best case, he turns into the player he is capable of being. Worst case, he is a depth piece that is MILES better than Rogers, Raydar, Keys, or Albert.

We need a proven starter to be opposite of Jones. I don't think he's that guy. We'll see.

And we are still chasing that starter. We are hard on Hall. And if we miss Hall we can circle back to Coats. I think we will be ok.

Hall doesn't even have a visit set up here, and I wouldn't hold my breath on him. Taking Harris is just a panic move, the guy isn't very good. Our CB recruiting is poor but that's nothing new.

He also does not have a visit set to OM but he is going to visit there. He is visiting here. We have already agreed on his price.

OT Kahlil Benson from Colorado just entered the portal. From Southaven, MS and signed with Indiana out of HS. Gotta think we've got a great shot since we just hired his position coach. He played more games at guard this year though, so I'm not really sure how much we need him.

Would be a good addition to the WR room.

Ah yes. I remember him. I definitely remember MSU recruiting him out of high school.

Moorhead finished second for him in his high school recruitment, he may give us a look

I mean if you get both the guy you say we can do better than and the guy who is better... why would you not take both? That's what I want.
