Clarence Jackson and Delvin Jones have been dismissed from the UM football team. Saw this on twitter even though I don't have a clue what happened and if they are even worth a 17. Either way its 2 more added to a growing list..

but I believe both had already been in trouble with the law. I believe Jackson had already been arrested for stealing a 46" tv, stand, and dvd player from a classroom last year. Both players were expected to contribute quite a bit and Jackson was listed as a starter at LB.

Another wasted recruiting championship for the Bears.

Well, they are big on 'tradition' up there.</p>

last three classes. The attitude in bear land is quickly becoming one of dismay over this issue. I know it certainly was frustrating the last few years of Jackie and it appears Nutt has passed him by.</p>

...on another board, either Rivals or Scout, someone posted something to the affect, that an influential alumni of the Rebels asked Nutt at their Pascagoula meeting, "why do we have to recruit such thugs?" Nutt's response was that he had too, because he just didn't have the talent. In reading Phil Steele's 2009 preseason magazine it is easy to understand why.

Here is their list of the Top recruits for Ole Miss for the 2009 recruiting class in order of their potential:

WR Pat Patterson..................GONE
DB Darius Barksdale.............GONE
DB Jamar Hornsby.................NEVER MADE IT TO CAMPUS
DL Craig Drummond.............GONE
OL Logan Clair......................BUST
OL Bobbie Massie..................starter
RB Rodney Scott....................GONE
LB Willie Ferrell......................GONE
QB Raymond Cotton..............GONE
RB Gabriel Hunter..................GONE
DL Eric Smiley.........................GONE
RB Tim Simon..........................?????
QB Clayton Moore.................GONE
LB Mike Marry........................??????
DB Frank Crawford.................??????
LB DT Shackleford..................Good Player
WR Jesse Grandy.....................GONE

Why do TSUN followers wonder why the bottom fell out last year? Isn't it clear?

The problem is the fanbase is completelydelusional. It should be very clear, but they do not see that side of the spectrum. They slap hands and jump up and down when they bring in a good recruiting class, but they don't understand their coach does not have any control over their players. Maybe all of this comes down to Oxford being such a party town? I mean you all never "lose a party". Right? Bottom line the players are thugs and do not respect their coaching staff. That is why I thought it was so funny when the Ole Miss fans loved making a big deal of our basketball teamthuggery, because it is worse in their football program.

13 remain at OM. He was a little unsure of himself, so it could be off for the good or bad by 1 or 2.

I read those two names and was like.. Who the 17 are THESE guys? Didn't realize one was a starting MLB before CJ shows up.

And 75 scholarship players IF ALL 25 SHOW UP?.. Probation be damned. They don't need no probation. They got Nutt.

It'll take the next coach 3 recruiting classes just to straighten out the numbers.
