You do realize the majority of D1 athletes didn't grow up a fan of a college team the way you and I did, right? We are on a message board. We represent 10% of a fan base, much less an entire state population. This is especially true in MS because if there were a "favorite college school growing up" type of question there's more that say Alabama and LSU than either instate school.
If he were a fan of either school growing up that had any real significance in where he is gong, we would know it by this point in his recruitment

I would normally agree, but our staff tends to string them out for a while lately. The same can be said for Jones, Lashley, Brown, etc... The same with Peters and Leo last year, a lot of these kids like to string it out and stir the pot a little. And with the way they are paraded and as much impact as the media has on their ranking and how much attention they get, I really can't blame them for it.
I'm not saying we are getting him, but I don't think it's as black and white as you propose. Not as many kids tip their hat and shut things down now.
