Of the 4 how many have offers and how many are seriously being considered by the staff?


Two Christie and Gage have offers while Blanchard and Elias are expected to get offers this weekend.

That would be two good ones to get. Heard Elias broke the school B Press record at D Town today and I have been watching Blanchard since he was in Pee Wee football in Livingston and that kid is going to be dynamite... Good luck to both...

I hope we offer Elias he seems like a beast.

We are recruiting Louisiana very hard and have signed 11 kids combined over the past 3 classes.

We could have an all Louisiana backfield in the future. Dak Prescott and josh Robinson.

Since when does that matter? If you make it to the league you're in the damn league. It doesn't matter how you get there.

I'd try to twist that into MSU's favor as well.

ETA: I'm disappointed to say you're too lazy to put in the work to show me MSU's players to get a shot in the league since 09. Lazy arse.

And to answer that question.. 7 of them. I sorted it to put the drafted ones first then stated "Others to get their chance in the league".

Apparently comprehension isn't your strong suit either.

I was curious so this is the list ESPN has

Jamar Chaney Philadelphia Eagles
Anthony Dixon San Francisco 49ers
Pernell McPhee Baltimore Ravens
Derek Sherrod Green Bay Packers
Chris White Buffalo Bills
K.J. Wright Seattle Seahawks

There might be more but I'm not putting the time/effort into looking it up

I will go ahead and clear up the confusion that has apparently taken hold in this thread due to NIHs ignorance on the subject.

First, if we count the 2009 draft, Auburn has had more players drafted.

Second, NFL.com has a very useful application that will allow anyone to look at what Schools have had their players drafted in their history. Now using this effective application, it shows that Auburn and MSU have both had 6 players selected in the rounds of the draft the past 2 years.

But delving into the actual wording of NIH himself, Auburn has put more people into the NFL when undrafted free agents are incorporated into the total sum.

So in conclusion, NIH has dug himself into a complete failure of an argument. And as anyone who visits this site regularly, this would not come as a surprise.

Kaleb was also going to be stopping by ole miss for a visit this weekend. We offered him about a month ago. He was pretty dead set on arky a while back. Think that may have changed. Not real sure why

Mullen didn't coach any of the players in the 2009 draft.

Which is why I included the following statement in my reply.

Now looking at a calendar, the past 2 years would only include the 2010 & 2011 draft classes.

Yeah I saw that. I understand why a team would hold off on offering, but as hard as arky was recruiting him I assumed he had been offered. I'm just hoping he can stay healthy this year and play like he dis his sophomore year.

If he wouldn't have gotten injured I think they would have let him commit, but with Wilkins, and Tenpenny still giving us a chance we couldn't take it right now.

RB Kaleb Blanchard from Denham Springs HS got his offer from Mississippi State today and I feel that DE David ELias from Dutchtown may be the next Louisana prospect to get an offer from my bulldogs.
