I'm not saying that's what Brown wants to do, I'm simply saying that you can only do so much.
ask yourself, would freeze swing and miss on a stud recruit in their own backyard? HELL NO.

Sad part is that this is the class that we should have gotten the most bump with in spending 5 weeks at #1 last season and yet I don't even think we even have ONE 4 or 5 star player committed yet.

Pretty stupid not signing Dylan. He has Started for USM since he was a freshman. He singled handed beat Starkville. He was a terror. Simmons , I feel good about, but damn just sign Bradley, He could be playing for Us.

We sometimes get too caught up in the measurables but dang, when its easy to see that a guy like Bradley is just a good football player then sign him. Obviously we weren't the only ones not to offer Bradley, but measurables didn't stop OM from signing Gross.

Or us signing a 5-8, 160lb RB.

I'm sure a lot of it has little to do with Mullen. Well, so to speak. We have people that need to step it up and make sure Brown's (and other recruits) needs are taken care of.

We if we couldn't see that Simmons was probably going to be possible SEC talent in the 10th grade when teams are offering kids that are in the 9th grade then we are worse than I thought..
And it's not like Bradley was Delta State or Miss College talent.
I think he started as a frosh at USM... We would have red shirted him anyway like we do everyone else... Plus it's Noxubee County and the kid wanted to come here...

yep ... but I think it wouldn't have been this bad if the whole Miami thing didn't happen ... Dan brought this on himself. It might not be enormous but there is a price to pay when you step out on your mate ... it will die down if: a) Dan signs these last key guys ... b) Nick & Elijah have a good spring.
there are guys on this board still defending Dan - but he has to give them some help
OXFORD, Miss. (WTVA) - Ole Miss campus police ask students to behave at future baseball games following a recent incident.
The university said students were reportedly throwing rocks at Georgia baseball players during last weekend's series.

When teams sign Noxubee Kids they play. The all-SWAC defense player is a no brainier LB that we could have signed. Acorn has a really good WR from Noxubee. Dylan was the second best player in the State next to Jones.

Yeah, right around the time our OL was abused for the 5th time in about 10 plays leading to a pick six, the writing was on the wall.

I think he needs to at the very least fire Hevesy as well.

Those impact guys from the famed 2013 class weren't the difference makers in that game...Kelly was. Treadwell really didn't do much. With that being said, I think that class really didn't live up to expectations but if you notice, it started momentum for OM in recruiting. And they did it primarily by thinking outside the box. They gave a scholly to one of Treadwells friends a year earlier....We all know the Nkemdichies story...and this year with Patterson's brother getting a job on staff. Once they got these top guys, other recruits took notice and they don't give two shits about the back stories. All they see is that players are going to OM. I don't know where we stand with Derrick Brown now but he would be one of those type players for us. I can imagine it is hard as hell to get 5* type guys to come to Mississippi, so we have to think outside the box to get them here.
