Recruiting 2017

[GreenheadDawg]

We will lose others too, and lose more battles. We can't recruit outside of our region.

And this post reminded me why I don't click on the recruiting thread.

The thing with Johnson reading between the lines a bit is they sold him he fits a 4-3 better than a 3-4 but who knows. Maybe he likes Orange

Was hoping Buckley would put a stop to this

It's harder to recruit to MSU now than it used to be, mainly because of social media, and a couple other factors.

Looks like we are still in good shape with Autry

Don't give me that bs. If it's so hard then why are all our other sports recruiting at a high level except football?

Will someone explain the love for Buckley on this board? Has he recruited anyone of significance? And doesn't he coach DBs,, by far the worst position group the last three years ?

[civildawg]

I have no idea, I've just been told over and over that he's this awesome recruiter. He did go get that o lineman last year that Florida state offered and was keeping warm

He hasn't been here a year yet. And has been a good recruiter everywhere he has coached

Well, K. Nixon just announced his final 2...Tennessee and USCe. Expected?

Yep. Recruited him very hard but when he decided last week he wasn't going to OV with us it was pretty much done. TBuck still did an in home earlier this week hoping to change his mind but after it was done.

I will say this about Nixon.
Kid didn't bullshit with our staff and talk out of both sides of his ass... we recruited him
Very hard . He just didn't like his fit with us.. it happens.

We did recruit him hard, but we did offer him after South Carolina had offered him and after he had visited there. Our only chance on a kid like that is to be the first.

I can deal with losses like this. Sometimes one school just fits a kid better than another for whatever reason. It's the last minute flip$ that bother me. Hopefully those will be fewer and far between now that the cheaters are being monitored closely.

Mullen is at KT home tonight and several of our other coaches are at Avery's before dead period

It isn't bullshit, it's true. MSU baseball recruits itself. In basketball, we have a master recruiter at work.

People view MSU in a different light when it comes to football. It's not entirely accurate but it's what we're dealing with.

Not worried about KT, but Mullen should just hang out in there all night & leave Ogre in the drive way

Looks like Rivers is down to MSU & Louisville.

Ron Polk II proved that MSU baseball just doesn't recruit itself. We still have to be very vigilant with our recruiting in baseball and Lane, Butch, Mingione, Cannizaro, and Coggin should get a lot of credit for that. There is no question in my mind we should be recruiting better in football than we are.
