Just curious why so many OM fans are posting on a thread for a State commit Yancy claims OM didn't want.

We haven't had a commitment in awhile, our baseball team sucks, and its the offseason.... So boredom. Don't bitch though in contrast if he would have committed to us and PJ mentioned off the field issues then you would have started the thread with some jab like "if he qualifies...y'all got a good one"

Also, expect us to get some more in state players committing to us at and around our camps in early June.

Do y'all think y'all get Gerri over the summer?

We've got 5 more right now that we'll be hearing become public between now and the second week of June IMO...all pretty highly rated players. Have said since last year that this will be our best ever class by average ratings because it will be small and we'll have to be picky. Have seen no reasons to back off that so far...

We shall see. I don't know of anyone on y'all's board that is highly rated besides Aeries, Jackson, and Green. After that you can't feel too great but its really early too. Only reason I bring it up is that y'all' usually fill up the majority of your class in the summer and landing those three guys is the best y'all can do this summer right? And I don't see Gerri or Jackson committing anytime soon

Im still confused in how 75% of the posts in this thread about a MSU commit are from OM fans, yet when yall have had commits this year from the 2 Calloway kids, the TE from Greenwood, or the OL from Desoto Central there haven't been hardly any State fans post or even care.

The school doing better in recruiting likes to talk recruiting more. Strange I know. 2012 is my sample

So you pay for less info? To me character issues (if true) are just as important as talent evaluations

You just aren't following closely...which is understandable in the spring 8 months in advance.

We do. There are several more that we're very confident about -- some already highly ranked -- some that are still relatively unknown.

No. We generally fill 2/3 of the class in the summer -- and this summer will be just like others in that regard. Would be shocked if we didn't have 8-10 commits this summer -- with 3-4 JUCO slots left to fill and 3-4 more spots to chase big fish throughout the season...

Why is "no" your response to what I said? I said landing Green, Jackson, and Aeries is the best you could do this summer. Well if you disagree tell me how you could do better.

Gerri's recruitment will be very interesting. State usually does better in the delta, but Freeze really covets this kid. He is a bigger priority than Rod Taylor. One thing that may factor into his recruitment is y'all are recruiting him for MLB while we are recruiting him as a DE. I guess which position he likes more may give either school and edge. Freeze will be on him until NSD though, believe that

I don't want to go into any more real detail... but there are several others in the 4* range that I expect us to get this summer, some that we allegedly already have. You are just looking at the MS kids -- the others I'm talking about are OOS kids...

There's no way we lose CJ unless State has a better season than us. Not a good comparison since CJ is already committed to us. He is this years Derrick Jones as far as instate battle. Y'all were suppose to flip him too huh

When you get a total of one OOS 4 star and one instate 4 star after the entire summer, will you take your medicine?

Yes, word is his mother really likes our staff and so does Gerri. He is one of the top LBs on our board and thats another plus.

We will get all 3 of those guys who are all 4 star recruits as well as another Cory Thomas who is about to BLOW UP in his ranking and should be a 4 star 90 up from a 2star 78.

We also could land a couple others this summer as well as like engie said with JUCO (likely 2 OL)

Just like there is "NOOO WAYYY" Chris Jones is a 4* too, huh, WiO? Remember fighting that one to the death? Yeah -- you really had the pulse of that one.

I'll always love our chance in taking kids from Meridian that we want.

Committed to you prior to an MSU offer -- and has been at MSU countless times since.

LOL, WTF?

Is he or is he not JUCO-bound? Kid STILL wants to end up at MSU. We could have flipped him at any point that we wanted. Simply took Fred Ross instead. Would you like to argue that we made the better decision there?
