True question for real answer.
Why would a top recruit want to come to a school who has been average to below average and had just recently come off of an abysmal year? On top of that, the new head coach at this school is a no name with nothing to show. Then you add in the fact that it's a school in a pretty rural part of Mississippi. Now add that it wasn't just one top recruit, it was several top recruits. An accomplishment this school had never done before. Now add in that these are black recruits going to a historically racist school.
I get that Oxford is not a completely shitty, dingy town. As far as Mississippi goes, it's a fairly nice, mostly quiet town, but it's still a town in Mississippi. What does Mississippi have to offer a young black man honestly?
I could understand pulling a top recruit here and there, but that many, pretty much overnight?
coaches from other schools know full well what's going on. It's become apparent according to several media outlets that there are a lot of coaches unhappy with OM right now. Some of this could very well be chalked up to "sour grapes". There probably are a few that are pissed solely because OM beat them, but it sounds like there are even coaches from teams that OM never plays that are unhappy with something that OM is doing right now. According to the media outlets, it's an unprecedented amount of unhappy coaches. You have to ask yourself why these coaches who haven't and likely won't play OM are so unhappy with something that is going on at OM.

If you don't understand why anyone would like Ole Miss, you haven't visited. It's a really fun time with great people. You can play early in the SEC, you can be on national TV every week beating the elite programs in America, you can then go on to the NFL and become a super bowl MVP. We have a top 5 party school and attractive women folk everywhere. Oxford combines the music scene of Athens and the food scene of a Chapel Hill with the charm of a small Mississippi town. Why wouldn't you want to go there?

Are there two posters more obsessed with Ole Miss than you and V&S? Do you really think anyone is gonna read that wind bag wall of text?
Give it a rest.
