Do Ole Miss's issues and apparent cheating going on, by their standards, a ridiculous recruiting run just prove the old adage if it walks like a duck it's a duck?
I'm not talking a local 5 star choosing the home team every now and then, that's going to happen.
But when you have a team that has won nothing in 30 years and has been a persistent "just there" team, recruit at the clip Ole Miss was a few years ago I can't help but think that any school with a similar pedigree is also doing something nefarious.

Yea when a top ten recruit from the other side of the country has a top 5 of OSU, USC, FSU, BAMA, and Ole Miss, I could see how that raises eyebrows . Haha

You nailed it. I'm all for a Mississippi kid staying home to play at ole miss etc. when you start seeing out of state and even national top guys going there all of a sudden it's just too much.

TAMU is a nationally recognized academic institution with athletic programs with histories of achievement. It's not eyebrow raising when a top athlete from the East/West Coast signs with TAMU, there are variables in that equation. OM presents none of those variables.

When you sign multiple top players in a single class after doing jack shite for 30 years its a huge red flag. The OM boosters got greedy and impatient. No one would have really dug into it if they had started with getting the instate kids and winning a few more than usual. Over time if you establish yourself as a winner no one will question why a five star wants to go there.
