According to Steve we have pulled Singleton's offer

[coach66]

I think that is a good move, there is no way in hell Bobby Hall and his cronies would allow that kid to get away. He is a great prospect. Bracewell at S.P. is very good too and we shouldn't waste our time there either. Show no interest and we might have a chance.

people talking about there being four good wrs in MS next year. I know about the two you mentioned, but who are the others and where are they from and how do they all rate? I know the two from SP and MC are probably already bought and paid for, but what happens if the rebs can't throw the ball at all and Russell looks like he will end up being a very good passer?

think we have a shot at Brassell? That guy is the fastest kid I have seen in person at the high school level.

[dawgman42]

Does he know his A, B, D's and 1, 2, 4's? How are his stats: no. of misdemeanors, months in juvie, vehicles successfully stolen?

 

[coach66]

then as Houston says the kids that really have an interest will pursue(swim) toMSU. I do believe there is achance that UM will start to have issues with wide recievers under Nutt as his idea off a passing game is to basically get a fast, tall, wide reciever and throw it up for grabs up the sidelines which can be effective with the right players but which didn't pan out a Upig. UM is on their way to becoming a team that runs first and throws second if Nutt stays. If Russell lights it up next year then the recievers will come to us, no need wasting our time on the two aforementioned until they show a genuine interest in us.

Just because you think he's already bought and paid for doesn't mean you should quit, especially when a guy has Brassell's talent. As usual with players from The U, it'll be hard as hell to get him away from Oxford. There's a whole lot of Mississippi pressure exerted and money flaunted in Batesville. Another thing to look at is how our respective '10 seasons pan out. If we do well and they struggle, especially offensively, we could see some re-thinking by some of these guys. And it would help tremendously if Russell or Relf show they can be an effective passer and get our WRs the ball downfield and in positions to make big plays. My gut says he'll wind up at Mississippi, but aGAIN, I'd be more pissed if we didn't even try. The last guy coming out of The U I was this excited about was DP. If anyone can break through the Pipeline and grab a guy, it's going to be Mullen.

I think this is a bad move by us. First of all, there are 11 months in recruiting left and anything can happen. Now, no, I don't think we get Singleton, but if you're going to recruit all of Mississippi, you've got to recruit Madison to. Unless Mayor Mary plans on seceding from Mississippi, which is not out of the realm of possibility. But anyway, I remember a guy named Derek Pegues being a "lost cause" as well. Not to mention guys like Robert Elliott, and even this year Damien Robinson was gone to Bama.

Secondly, MC and South Panola are two of the best programs in the state. Again, if your recruiting philosophy is to get the best in Mississippi, you've got to recruit those two schools. We may not get Brassell or Singleton, but there are other guys that are underclassmen that we MIGHT could get. At the very least, keep your prescence.

Thirdly, Bobby Hall may coach at MC, but there's also a guy named Bernard Euell that played at MSU on staff there. There's also another coach- I believe Coach Walker that is also a big State fan. And if you remember MSU had a guy named Chris Rainey from Amory that was coached by- yep. Bobby Hall. Now, yes, Hall steers players to Ole Miss, but I don't think it's even close to Scott Samsel territory. Also, Mark Hudspeth has a good relationship with Hall. I would hate to see MSU leave MC with their tails tucked again just because the conditions aren't favorable and miss out on more good players. Especially if the school is pro-MSU as someone said in a thread last week. And we actually have had some decent success with South Panola players considering their proximity to Oxford- Pegues, Mario Bobo, Demetric Wright, Kevin Cooper among others.

Lastly, it's coming from Rosebowl. Screw him. What does Paul Jones have to say?

when it comes to these two schools. My daughter attends Madison Central and I agree that MC is predominantly an MSU school. We need to stop chasing and start attracting based on our performance on the field and with the style of play we exhibit, I think we are headed in the right direction and I truly believe Nutt's style of play will start pushing wr's in our direction and soon now that Austin has thrown in the towel. Dave Rader, give me a break.

 

[RobbieRandolph]

Which makes one think that it may have been something out of the ordinary for the staff to pull the offer.

Did he attend our JR day this past weekend?

 

[War Machine Dawg]

A few of the "superstars" have given the program a terrible reputation over the years. I'll fully admit that. But the majority of our guys are good kids, like most programs in the state. And things have gotten much better now that Dr. Shafer has taken over. The team GPA is up dramatically. I feel confident in saying we'll see many more of our players qualified from now on.

that is not a reason to pull his offer, and we have another junior day coming up in March, and I have no idea if he will go to that.

about and are getting recruited. They ARE the face of SP and that is an unfortunate reality.

 

[RebelBruiser]

It's still a year away, but I'd bet on us getting Singleton, Brassell, Morrow, and Moncrief. I haven't heard much about our chances with Pinkston.

Moncrief's coach was Deuce's coach, and he's one of the few HS coaches in Mississippi with Ole Miss ties. Moncrief is very familiar with Ole Miss and has been up quite a bit. I've heard Alabama could be the biggest threat to us in his recruitment, so I could definitely see us losing him to Bama, but I think we end up getting him. I'll be surprised if Singleton and Brassell don't sign with us due to the schools they go to and the fact that we have a lot of their former teammates on our campus. Morrow's step-sister goes to Ole Miss, so I think we get him, though with coast players, LSU is always a big threat.

They won't all end up at WR though. It sounds like Brassell's future may be at corner, and I'm pretty sure Moncrief will end up at safety.

 

[Vandelaydawg]

next 17n February! Everyone is waiting on pins and needles to know everything from your schools recruiting. Can you go ahead and break down the top secret commits from the 2012 class as well?

 

[Shmuley]

Frankly I'm looking forward to the day when we aren't counting on kids sucking in their senior year and dropping off everybody else's board so we can sign them. Start winning MFers.

Don't forget CJ McClain......although he was an All SEC LB under Nutt at Arky, he and Mullen have become pretty tight......this is coming from CJ himself...

 

[drcurly.sixpack]

Sounds like he'll be going to EMCC

 

[gdogg]

stands is wearing MSU stuff, but the SOB coaching the team is sending his kids to UM. I say we don't back off Singleton, we should change our strategy. After next years offensive production and a win in Oxford, the game will change. </p>

 

[Duckmandawg]

It's still a year away, but I'd bet on us getting Singleton, Brassell, Morrow, and Moncrief.

Is there anyone you don't think you'll get Bruiser? Or will they just drown swimming to the boat? No wait what will happen is anyone who doesn't sign with scUM in 2012 really didn't have a scholly, but they wanted one. In fact, let me guess, they are going to be calling late January 2012 and BEGGING for Nutt to give them a scholly because they so desperately want to keep swimming to that boat they so desire to be own.

 

[jacksonreb1]

team but you shouldn't be so public in being sure they have those "records' before you actually sign them. sorry couldn't resist.

It's not that. Just in this case, we have the inside track on the guys I listed. Brassell is an SP guy. Singleton is an MC guy, and played with Martin and Bennett. Morrow has a sister at Ole Miss. Moncrief has a coach that will do everything to expose him to Ole Miss. We just happen to have an inside track on each of those guys. That's all I'm saying. It's a long time from now and we may not land any of them, but I'd bet on us getting most of them due to the connections. And again, that's why it's going to be tough for Mullen to sweep the state like he wants to. There are always going to be guys who have a natural lean to one school or the other or have some other connection, and there are pipelines from certain programs to both schools. Things do change though, so you never know, but we've got a head start on those guys. Feel free to disagree with me, but I don't think it's a secret that we have an inside track on the guys I listed.

Here is my prediction for you. On signing day, the split of prospects both MSU and Ole Miss want from the state of Mississippi will be fairly close to 50/50 with a slight lean one way or the other and one or two going out of state. I don't follow your recruiting closely enough, but I'm sure there are a number of prospects like those I listed that MSU has a natural tie or head start on signing, which is where it evens out.

 

[Goat Redux]

if it were, you might could actually crow about beating us in something. What is it now, a baseball series win in Oxford, a football beatdown on one of Ole Miss's greatest teams ever, and a sweep in basketball over a team "much more talented than MSU"???? I'd rather be in our shoes right now, pal.</p>

Oh yeah, and by the way, you won't sign Singleton, Brassell, Morrow and Moncrief. It just won't happen. </p>

So, you prefer watching us host a regional and Super regional, watching us play in a bowl game, and sitting basically dead even on the NCAA bubble right now in basketball. You prefer all that simply because you've beaten us head to head? I'll admit you've had our number this past year head to head, but I'll always prefer the overall success over the head to head success.

You may be right on those 4 if you're saying we won't get all 4 of them. Like I said, it's a long way off and a lot will happen between now and then, but I like our chances with each of them based on the connections we have. Care to make a way early prediction like mine just for grins?

 

[Todd4State]

she actually lives in Ridgeland HS territory now. Seeing as to how we got Trevor Stiggers from there, I'd say that we did good.

 

[Goat Redux]

and that's exactly what the Cotton Bowls and Supers are....the past. And really what do you have to show for it? Unrealized expectations? Right now and going forward, I like our chances better than yours in the Big 3 sports.

No clue on the recruits. But history says you won't get all of them.

Seriously? Those are in the past, but the Egg Bowl, the basketball wins, and the baseball series wins that YOU brought up aren't in the past? You brought up the past, not me. I was just pointing out to you how much your post made you sound like one of those that would be alright with 1-11 if the one was an Egg Bowl win.

Fair enough though if you want to talk about the future. That's all speculation at this point and as a fan I would hope with two new coaches in the 3 sports you'd feel good about your future. If not, that would be pretty depressing.

I would be surprised if she still attends college football games.
