Once coach O gets to him its OVA!
Watched O recruiting for four classes.
Superb at evaluating underrated talent (Mike Wallace, Dexter McCluster, Greg Hardy for example).
Terrible at finishing for highly rated recruits. Finishing #2 and #3 was good for Ole Miss exposure at the time where Cutcliffe dropped the ball completely post-Eli, but there was never a point where a recruit the caliber of Cece put an Ole Miss hat on because O recruited him.
He was a consistent #2/3 finisher. He could get an in, he could get a visit, but he couldn't close.

About as credible as a person who doesn't know the difference in then and than.

I didn't say "CeCe won't be a Bamer. He told me so." I just said I don't think he goes to Bama.

Getting those visits at Ole Miss was like getting your black friend invited to a KKK party as the guest of honor. He was lights out at USC

To be fair, you guys weren't nearly on the level you are now at the time, and neither was the SEC yet quite frankly, at least in terms of recruiting and hype like we all enjoy as a conference now.

As much as it pains me, i think he goes to ole miss.

I think he shocks the world and goes to UA.
I can't wait to see where he picks regardless though. Kid has been entertaining during all this. About 4 schools believe they have a legit chance at him. That's awesome.

Lol he got OM in on kids that otherwise wouldn't have known the school existed. Y'all aren't a perennial top 10 school in recruiting or football that just attracts 4 and 5 star kids.

Nah, I am fairly certain he will be at UF

If he could consistently finish number 2 at Ole Miss, it shows just how good he was of a recruiter to get kids back then to even consider the Rebs. Now that he is at a real powerhouse, he won't be finishing #2 very often. (Obviously he got hired too late to work his magic on many 2015 recruits. 2016 will be a whole other story.

That would not shock me at all.
Cincy would be the shock the world school at this point. He did OV there.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say he will close at LSU

Color me shocked...

If he went to Cincy, I wouldn't even be mad.
Posted on 1/30/15 at 3:35 pm to SwayzeCrazy
I bet he ends up at LSU too
What color looks best on you? All white?

Dude if he recruited that we'll back then at Ole Miss it's not that far fetched he will be able to close now at LSU , especially with LA recruits

Lol at comparing OM to LSU.

That's a fair point, but I still contend O was a lot of hype.
Go back and look at some of those classes and some of our top rated players never made it to campus. He stocked the board with underrated three stars, got a handful of four stars that were grade questionable, and inflated the rest of the class with highly rated non-qualifiers.
It appears he's learned a lot since his time at Ole Miss too.
