    3 we MUST sign

    I don't care what anyone says you CANNOT lose guys in your own back yard...
    We CANNOT LOSE

    AJ Brown
    Kobe Jones
    Scott Lashley

    We SHOULDNT LOSE..

    Jeffrey Simmons but I can handle losing him but We CANNOT lose those other 3. We better sign 3 of those 4 mentioned or there is gonna be a lot of angry ppl around the program that fork out a lot of money. And from what I am hearing we are not spending the time on AJ we should be and he don't like it at all.

    I will be disappointed if we don't get AJ, Simmons, Lashley, and Jones.

    Sounds like you might need a new 'source' for what you are hearing.......

    I think the preacher needs some new contacts.

    So let me get this straight....

    A.J. Brown has lived in Starkville all his life, and then decides he wants to go somewhere else for college - this is Mullen's fault? Not to mention the incredible options there are for football players out there.

    I'm not saying that's what Brown wants to do, I'm simply saying that you can only do so much.

    He's likely to end up in Starkville... I'm just saying we better not take it as a done deal.

    If we lose AJ Brown I'm literally gonna throw up on myself. If we're gonna compete against teams in the west, these are the players we have to sign. No excuse for Mullen losing him. Just do whatever we have to do.

    You're right. We can't lose those.

    I don't understand why you say you'll settle for 3 of the 4. I'll be disappointed if we don't get ALL 4. We have to win these battles and raise our expectations.

    At all costs. Get these players.

    These plus Davis - I think Dan needs all 5. Yes, that's going to be really hard. But that's my expectation of Dan - he needs to step his game up on the recruiting front.

    Exactly, if you aren't going to recruit and pull in enough top level SEC talents then you are trying to play in this league with one hand tied behind your back. It was pathetic in that Egg Bowl seeing how much more pure athletic talent OM had available to them than we do.

    Exactly. I also want to see Dan play some mind games on Freeze and steal somebody. Dan is not occupying any space in Freeze's head so hit him where it hurts most - the guy lives for recruiting. Get onnit, Dan.

    That's why we are getting passed by.

    If you can't sign top 100 prospects that happen to be in the golden triangle, we have a problem. If simmons or brown both don't sign with MSU, we are failing to reach the next level. We need impact players. These guys are both impact players and happen to be within an hour of our campus.

    Failing to sign both is a problem. If either go to the bears, it's a disaster.

    Good idea, I would love Cooley or Benito Jones. They are both instant impact guys and would have a chance to crack our two deep.

    It kind of reminds me of that movie MS Burning, when the FBI guy keeps trying to do things "the right way" but wasn't making any progress, then Gene Hackman slaps the sh!t out of him and tells him close your eyes we're gonna do things my way. We have to get better at recruiting because what we've been doing is not working.

    You must not know the full Leo Lewis and Chris Jones stories then.

    They're giving Jones too much to overcome. Didn't Todd Breland at Laurel play for us back awhile ago? I don't understand why we can't get his guys. They have a WR in next year's class that's all but going to OM too.
