This is a good pick up. Ole Miss was confident. He has some work to do in the classroom but this is a pretty big blow to the Ole Miss class.

Gordon looks like the much better player on highlights but I'll take it. AU chose a nice year to get into Mississippi.

Need Gordon's effort level to rub off on Handy. Very different when watching their highlights
However Handy probably is the better overall athlete & has the higher ceiling. Could make more a solid DT pair down the road

He said he would still take his visits so who knows with this guy. Looks like Ole Miss may have picked the wrong alum for the S/Cb job.

I think that statement summed up this kids recruitment then and now.

Jaren Handy, #8 SDE, #108 overall, 0.9507 composite score, 6'5" 278
Justin Eboigbe , #10 SDE, #126 overall, 0.9453 composite score, 6'4.5" 263
Handy one ups Eboigbe in literally every way possible. How fitting.

If we get Pickering, we'll be done on the DL.

Bama didn't see it that way. They could have had Handy but didn't have room. Some fans think the rankings are that accurate. Sometimes a 3 star is better than a 5, much less 108 vs 126. The "rankers" themselves will tell you that that difference is meaningless.

Everything you said was 100% accurate except this.

What do you know about his academic background?

Bama does their own player evaluations. They obviously like Eboigbe. Auburn seemed to be recruiting him pretty hard too. I suspect your take would be different if Eboigbe committed to AU and Handy to UA.
Handy is an outstanding prospect. Very nice pickup. Congrats!

ETA: Landing Handy might help y'all flip Charles Moore too.
