We lost our best DT. A guy that is going pro early.

We have a bad ass WR in Starkville that can step right into DeRunnya's spot.
We have a bad ass CB in MS whose sis is at MSU, & can compete for a CB spot right away.
We have a bad ass DT 20 miles from campus that can play day 1.

Result.....we get none of them?

If that happens, we can try to paint as rosey a picture as possible, but that's ****ing awful and embarrassing, and someone didn't do their job. I don't give a rats ass if a player wanted to leave the State. Has a salesperson ever sold you something you didn't exactly need? You can't just mail someone a brochure & expect that to seal the deal. You gotta work, just like you tell the players they'll have to do.

(I'm using the brochure thing as an example, not saying we actually do that. Since I know somebody will take that literally.)
Months ago I posted that after talking to a couple of Elite Highschool Coaches and them telling Me we had only one Coach that can talk the talk to Mississippi Kids and now He is gone. They said Ole Miss has 5 elite recruiters that never stop. They thought Hev was a hindrance and we would be better of He he just stayed Home. People on this board told me I didn't know what I was talking about. I said two months back that Simmons was leaning to the Rebs. a certain poster told Me that His mother loved State and we we Ok with Simmons. Still hope i am wrong. Thank goodness Dan has gone out and got some recruiters but He still doesn't have a Mississippi Coach that can Recruit on the Ole Miss level. Hell their best recruiter might Be Barney Farrah. Dan is just a hard-headed yankee
