know singleton is good but not $1M+ good. Would rather use the money on the defensive line and at cornerback


We do still need another starting calibur WR though.

You could make the argument that OL is the biggest need on offense, maybe the team. It’s just a different offense when we can run the ball effectively

WR seems to be the deepest position in the portal by far. I'd spend the money elsewhere like RB and OL, and Corner

One way or another we have to be able to run the football effectively.

Also this may be a better route for WR.
Developing HS guys rather than ponying up for the big names in the portal.
We’ve had multiple busts at this position from the portal.

Jaylon Robinson
Chris Marshall
Zakhari Franklin
Juice Wells
Deion Smith
And I’ll throw in Michael Trigg for good measure

Are we still trying to salvage Deion Smith?

I get it but it’s not that they didn’t pan out. They just never made it campus for being different types of stupid.

Juice Wells


He was pretty much worthless. Did get 500 yards out of him but he wasn’t what we hoped to get.

Definite busts. They just didn’t have the talent.

Franklin just straight up refused to play IIRC. He got the NIL deal and did the bare minimum then kept saying he was injured in order to not play

When is Justice Haynes visiting?

UPDATE: Looks like he visited yesterday and is taking additional visits.

Matt Jones will enter portal. I kind of feel bad for the guy. Not his fault he caught heat for playing too much because our offensive coach(es) were idiots.

unrelated, but we need more Neals and less Davids covering the team. CBing anyone who is remotely Ole Miss-adjacent is embarrassing.

Honestly, I'm glad Jones is transferring. He's way too small and this will keep a boneheaded coach from playing him over a better back.

Are people still living and dying by crystal ball projections by people who get paid to make biased projections for the team they cover to get the fans riled up and excited for clicks ?

I know you can’t get em all but we could have gotten this one and seemingly let him walk instead. Dude was a top 10 back in the nation as a freshman, he’s from Columbia, has three years of eligibility left, plays at a position of desperate need for us, and rather than locking him down, we’re trying to get Bama’s 3rd stringer, who most likely won’t sign with us anyways. He’s about to ball the hell out at Mizzou, what the hell are we doing.
