FWIW a source associated with the athletic department at Starkville high thinks AJ Brown ends up at Bama

I am getting more and more confident of this. Hopefully this is the year we break through over there.

It truly is the biggest oddity in sports recruiting right now. It would be about like USC never able to get anyone out of Arizona. The kind of thing that fans two time zones away look at and think "that's really weird".

Well fellas I have 4 days left in this hell hole.

However, that means I'm gonna be in the air most of this weekend and settling back into home life early next week so I'm not going to be posting much through NSD.


I am calling my Senator and demand your deployment be extended another ten days!






































Obviously joking, thanks for everything you have done!

Ole Miss folks think that they are getting everyone. This is their big money year, next year they will be ranked outside the top 10 on signing day.

Yea I saw that but a few of their fans think they have no shot. Just hope he doesn't feel too pressured to stay at MSU. Fingers crossed on this one. Want him in this class badly

I know hometown pressure is a big deal, but damn, which school would you trust to develop you into a NFL prospect. There comes a time that you have to be smart and make a business decision

More than likely Harbaugh is camping out at his house and hid the phones

I'm gonna be honest, I know everyone else won't like this but I don't have a problem with Harbaugh sleeping over with recruits. Now, if he were snuggling up to them in their beds I'd be the first to get angry, but at this point it is no different than when they have their friends stay over. It's just an extended period of hanging out, except you both go to sleep, where you're not interacting with each other.

And then you consider that if the kid goes to Michigan Harbaugh will be a second (or first) father figure to them. Not all that weird for a father figure to be asleep somewhere in the same house as the person they're a father figure too.

Now if I thought Harbaugh was some sort of child predator it'd be different, but he's not, so I'm not seeing it as that big of a problem. Also apparently the parents are ok with it or he wouldn't be there. Though I get why people do have a problem with it.

I find the sleepover completely insane. He's a grown man. Even in a completely non sexual sense, which we are talking about here, if a college professor or high school teacher slept over at 14-20 year old's houses it would be weird by any standard. It completely confuses the relationship between a mentor and a young person, and is considered socially awkward because it is part of a predator repertoire of grooming.

I'm not looking to argue about it. Though there is definitely a difference in a coach who will be like a second father figure being inactive in a 17/18/19 year old's house with their parents there and a teacher/professor who is probably disliked by the kid staying in their home.

I think it's just asking for trouble. All it takes is one accusation from a recruit's sister to destroy a coach's career. Not smart.
