quote:
When MS State offered, he had no other offers and he knew Mullen, so he hastily committed, with no money offers. Then when other offers began coming in, which he had not counted on, he reconsidered and committed to Auburn. He is from Georgia and AU is better than MS State for a QB with 1-2 yrs to play before hoping to get to the league. Also, his family and friends have always been AU fans and it was closer to home, etc., so he committed with no money offers. Interestingly, even after Ms State apparently knew his dad wanted money from them, they stayed hard on recruiting him until the end, after he had committed verbally to AU. When at the last minute MS State knew they couldn't get him back, the kid from LA they wanted had committed elsewhere, and others they had looked at or offered had been lost, they made a "leftover" offer to another kid from MS.
Yeah, and I have some ocean front property in Arizona I'd like to sell you.

Trust me Dude...it played out as it should. I have friends in the media and on staffs at these schools. I have been with MS State coaches at their camps, etc. They recruited him to the end. No money was asked for or received by Cam. He ended up being recruited all over, but at first it was just Dan Mullen due to his Florida connection and familiarity with Cam. Imagine what Cam could have done for MS State.
