Did anyone catch Croom saying that we had 19 commits?

well if Hoskins makes it that's one greyshirt that will count toward 2009, same with Baker S. so that would be 17.....maybe Atwon Dixon is another but there are two more than I guess that haven't announced. Hopefully Bumphis and Conner or Thames.

One of the silent commits is Woody McCorvey to Whitfield after another offensive season in the cellar of the SEC.

<span>‰ Reaping rewards: Sylvester Croom and Mississippi State are reaping the recruiting dividends of last season's strong finish.

Croom said the Bulldogs have already <span style="font-weight: bold;">landed 19 verbal commitments</span> from upcoming high school seniors. It's largely a benefit of having won eight games and the Liberty Bowl last season.

"We are way ahead of where we've ever been in recruiting for next season," said Croom, the 2007 SEC coach of the year.

It remains to be seen if the Bulldogs have come far enough to achieve his goal of competing for an SEC title.

"I don't know if we'll be good enough," Croom said. "At the end of the day, we might not be. I think we have a chance to do that. Every year, we've played as good as we can. But our goal is to win the conference championship. I don't know any other way to do it, if you want to be the best."

Croom's decision to make sophomore quarterback Wesley Carroll one of the two players he brought to SEC media days seems like evidence of Carroll's emergence as a team leader.</span>
