Lets be honest about RWIII too.
Ole Miss pushed him out because they signed 2 or maybe 3 other RB's that were ranked higher.
We lucked into him for some reason being discounted for playing in small school division ball in the Metroplex.
All last season we'd see him rip off 300+ yard games and scream where's his 4th star? He never got it, had he gotten that 4th star some other school would've swooped in and got him.
Now he may never play football again.
We've never had a shot at the kid that lived in Jonesboro for a year or two.
Now we're an Air Raid offense that can't run the ball when we have to. The identity we think we are isn't what we actually are on the field.
Couldn't keep KJ b/c we never throw, now we throw all the time and don't run enough to get a couple top RB's.
I love the underdog identity of the program but it's getting kinda stale and old and negatively affects recruiting. The fanbase could chill out for a minute too.

Correct. I do get a kick out of the folks that think we'll easily flip Pennamon from Ole Miss because they actually believe we flipped RW3.

Mitchell tore his Achilles and may never live up to his star ranking.

That had nothing to do with it. We threw more than tOSU last year. That was just the bullshite excuse they used to cover the decommitment.

Ole Miss let RW3 go after getting Eric Swinney from Georgia.
Those schools did come calling like a week before signing day. He got offers from Stanford and Ok state. Some have said Baylor and A&M offered in January but he told them he wasn't interested so they moved on.
The Denzel Mitchell kid I'll be surprised if Ole Miss signs him.
KJ's entire situation was the stepdad and step uncle being in awe of the glamour, glitzy type program irregardless if the kid doesn't get snaps.
