Demarco Cox commits to OM....for basketball

[BigLeagueChew]

Frankly, I know nothing about him other than his brother plays for y'all.

I do find it interesting that the arguably 2 best O-Line prospects, Cox and Rea, in the state are playing other sports in college.

I think Fletcher is his cousin.

Said he didn't wanna go to college where Fletcher went b/c he wants to play against him, IF he decides to play football.

Is he even going to play football this year? Has he ever played? I think his size is what scouts might be looking at but I don't think he has the nuts to make it thru a whole fall practice, muchless a season. Didn't he try football out this past spring and couldn't cut it and decided to stick with basketball? Or is that someone else I'm thinking of?

I said John Cohen can recruit o-linemen better than Croom. Well, apparently so can Andy Kennedy.

Demarco as never play 1 single down of high school football. He is in no way shape or form "arguably" the best O-lineman in the state.

I think I heard that, and I know he's rated as the 4th best recruit in Mississippi. The scouts must see something in him. Weird since he hasn't played.

I've seen him play basketball a few times - think Elgin Bailey.

Scout has him listed at #30 on the official Mississippi prospect list:

and his Scout profile has him listed as the #76 OT in the nation:

I have no idea or access to his Rival's rankings.

Even his highlight film sucks.

He's number 1 because he's 6'8" 330 lbs., not because he's a badass on the field.
