    I've heard that IMG is extremely hesitant to take him because of how bad his grade situation is.

    Well I would imagine so. I feel sorry for Diwun to be honest with you. He has had a hard life and has been steered in wrong directions by those who are supposed to be close to him. I hope it all works out for him because he is a good kid.

    How does everyone know about his grade situation? Is he out bragging about it or is the info being leaked? I would be pissed if I was his parent. Either it's is slander or someone is giving info on my minor child away.

    Yea I hope so too but he has to take school & his grades serious. Juco is a wake up call a lot of times. Hopefully life in small time MS instead of a SEC campus gets his mind right & he can reach his potential.

    If you were his parent he probably wouldn't be worried about qualifying in the first place, more than likely.

    Ain't no way he can afford to move to IMG. He's not going qualify and will end up in a juco. Probably to never be heard from again unless a school places him and really stays on him.
    But, he's out of their numbers.

    It's about perception to them. No one will care come August if he gets in or not. I imagine Mullen will sign him regardless to get heat off his recruiting ability.

    Ole Miss is making the same old mistakes they always have. They’ve recruited 37 4star wideouts to the detriment of every other position on the field. Still wouldn’t be shocked if Black ended up signing with MSU in the end.

    Will never understand the players who are highly ranked not having their academics in order.. guaranteed a starting spot at any 4 year school outside of Bama and can't get the grades up but will beat their chest all over twitter about who is recruiting them.

    I sincerely hope he gets his grades worked out.. I don't like seeing Mississippi kids fail

    I was wondering the same thing. Seems as if we have a lot of fans who think they know everything about a recruit.

    Reading between the lines it sounds like it's more of an environment issue in this case.

    Maybe because some of us have relatives and or friends in the forest school system that can "say" without really "saying".

    Best of luck to him. I honestly hope he succeeds wherever he goes. He seems like a good kid who's been through a lot.
