I swear I saw on twitter where Jimothy is actually visiting Bama. How the mighty have fallen. I mean I liked the kid and thought he had potential, but if Bama is taking our OL from this year's team, they need to look in the mirror.

Jimothy has a lot of talent. Blue Bloods think they have all the answers so they think they can make the production match the talent. I watched the kid all year, I don't see it. There's a reason he was replaced at IMG.

Burnside and who's the other? Also just saw Chambliss is staying at Ole Miss if his waiver is approved.

I'm glad we got rid of Burnside. He was hellbent on playing a position that he can't play at the FBS level.
The ones I would've liked to have kept are Tony Mitchell and probably Seth Davis.
The two the staff wanted to keep are Mitchell and Jimothy. They still thought they could make something out of him.
On Chambliss, that waiver is not getting approved. If it does it will open the floodgates to approve every kid that didn't get to play a medical redshirt. They're literally trying to say that he had bronchitis one year at Ferris St and that he should've gotten a medical r/s for that.

We will see, the argument is he would qualify under the current rules for a RS but didn't at the time at Ferris. I think everyone outside of State fans would want him back to make CFB a better product next year. But the thing is, just how much money does Ole Miss have? Between him and Lacy that has to be close to 5-6M just on 2 players. Crazy

If what I heard they are offering Lacy is true then he is going to be staying at OM. And if that's true, which I believe it is, they will have over 7 million dollars tied up into 2 players.

They have it, that's what they saved of Kiffin's contract when he left them.
We need Ole Miss to lose one of the next two, and Golding to be what I think he will be, which is a 8-5 type coach....and have Ole Miss come back to reality. But they are really doing the right things necessary to try and maintain the momentum. Can Golding and his new staff deliver is the key. The talent looks Like it will be there, but how much of the results was Lane and Weis?

I don't think they can. Whether they like it or not, Weis and Kiffin seem to be the key to their success. I think the financial commitment will still be there for at least 2 seasons. But the coaching drop off is going to be a thing. Whether I like admitting it or not, Weis called a really good game the other night and Chambliss made some out of his mind plays. I know one of them won't be at OM next year and I don't believe the other one will be either.

I'm told this morning that Kewan is now staying but i was given no dollar amount. 2 things, RB coach smith was sent to oxford this week to get Lacy for Kiffin but it hasn't happened yet. Cox and McDonald are not in Oxford at all coaching. 2nd thing, will Kewan change his mind when Chambliss waiver is rejected?

I talked to a few people in BR this weekend and they were concerned that Lane didn't have as tight a grip on the Lacy situation as some were led to believe. The offer I heard was somewhere between 2.5-3 million. LSU thought they had him locked at 1.8 last week.

The OC replacing Kiffin/Weiss at OM is like Barbay replacing Mike Leach. His resume is very mediocre.

It's John David Baker. A lot of people thought he was going to be our TE when Lebby was first hired by ECU made him the OC/QB Coach. He's an ok playcaller but he's a few steps down from Weis/Kiffin.

If they want to pay a RB 3M you let them all day and laugh all the way back to BR

Ole Miss could get Charles Manson eligible for football if they wanted to. So based on that I'm guessing they'll get him back next year.

Koby Keenum transferring out. Probably indicative that we've got a C transfer that we feel pretty good about.

You really don't think a law school can get this waiver approved? Unless we just don't hear about it, these days if you threaten to sue it seems like the NCAA bows down.

Well the guy they're hoping can get it approved went to law school at Arkansas. Interestingly enough, he's also the guy who inadvertently took down Hugh Freeze.
