because they can have just about whoever they want and can usually replace a miss on a big recruit with another solid prospect. But if Connor is already wearing Bama gloves,andis going to be ranked as high as most think he is,I would love to see the fallout from the Bama fanbase, and what theywould do, if he somehow ends up at Ole Miss. I don't think they would take that very well, and I have a feeling the Bama fanbase might get some poking around started up in Batesville and Oxford.
I wouldn't expect a kid ranked that high from Batesville to pick OM over Bama, just like I wouldn't expect a kid that highly ranked from a place like West Point to pick MSU over Bama. That almost never happens, especially now with how dominant Bama has been in recent years.That's why I think the Evans and Ward commitments are very important. Been a while since there havebeen two kidsthat highly ranked in the state of MS, and their decision could really change the landscape of big MS prospects staying in state.
