Buy/Sell: If C. Jones had not received that 5th star,...

bears would have never wanted him?

Buy. They would have just bitched that Rosebowl influenced his ranking.

Buy. Many OM fans were so skeptical of that ranking until they saw him in the MS/AL All-Star game and the UA All-American game. I don't think this late push by OM is going to work.

Sell, I think after seeing how Chris Jones dominated the MS/AL all-star game...

that's what started them drooling over him. The 5th star was just icing on the cake.

Who cares? We have to start landing the 5 stars, especially the ones from Mississippi. ESPECIALLY when they are committed to us for months. ESPECIALLY when his coach is an MSU guy. We had every advantage. If we don't land this guy, it's a HUGE disappointment, and our tactics must be examined. It is not acceptable to lose a guy like this to freaking Ole Miss. Damn waste.

5 star guys that are from Mississippi, 30 minutes from Starkville, grew up following MSU and are surrounded by MSU people (coach included) and commit to us early in the recruiting process. Yep, we really need to start landing those types.
