    Does the fact that some, or at least one, of our coaches sends his kids to Starkville Academy affect us at Starkville High School?

    Doesn't hurt to have an SHS Head football coach with a degree from MSU but is a lifelong Ole Miss fan.

    I have no idea. But it's not one coach. It's 3 that I can think of. But that's there business.

    Think I'm gonna drop out of following recruiting until a few days before signing day. In the words of Han, "I've got a baaaaaad feeling about this".

    It's obvious. We didn't wear the black jerseys enough last year. #crootslovethem

    I imagine we'll still recruit him.

    Here's the bottom line on this. Either Dan will recruit better or he'll get fired because he can't because he won't win without elite players.

    Ball is in his court.

    No doubt...coaching 'em up won't be enough if you don't have anything to work with

    You guys are worst than premenstrual girls. It's one damn guy. We're loaded at LB for at least 3 years without signing this kid. If he wants to play early he chose the right school. He would have at least a 2 year wait before he got significant playing time at State. Let the kid go to Ole Miss if he wants. Nobody was hurt here. LB's come a dime a dozen.

    I know nothing about his personality or attitude, but if OM is where he TRULY wants to be then State isn't t for him anyway. Cultures are far too different. Seems like if there is a big time prospect near Oxford they always get em. I don't understand why State can't do the same thing in the Starkville area. I don't think its over with him tho.

    Correct, we have a really good signing class started. Willie is young, prone to change his mind. We just picked up two good receivers to add to our 2016 class. We are doing okay, Mississippi is trying to catch-up, don't worry about them! Mississippi has all the issues right now they can deal with! We are Mississippi State University and we are proud of that! HAIL STATE!

    Guys, Green, Leo, Washington, incoming 2016 LB recruit(s), etc. Sure I want all 4 stars from SHS, but we have a commitment from a solid 3 star DB, ranked # 19 in the state by 24/7 from Lafayette High in Oxford at this time. I'm sure UNM didn't want him (ha!). I don't believe a lot of today's athletes grow up wanting to be a Dawg, a Tiger, webel, like they may have years ago. It's about fit, playing time, promises, and unfortunately dirty recruiting in today's world. They hear and are promised the world as a stud in HS. Most step on the SEC campus and see another world of talent ahead of them. I bet most don't hate UNM like we do either at their early age.

    Sucks because of where he's from. Other than that, if we had to miss on a position, LB is it.

    Maybe we can afford to miss on gay, but we don't need to lose him anyway. Other sec schools (including our instate rival) want gay; so if we land him, they can't have him.

    Doesn't really bother me anymore. Recruiting under Mullen is what it is. I like Mullen but we have a 7-8 win program under him and that is what it will always be. He gets enough players to go to bowl games but will never recruit at a high enough level to do much more than that (especially on the OL). But he is a good enough coach to not do much worse.
