Per BDJ... Class of 2010 ESPNU 150 Watch List athlete Michael Carr could be the first junior pledge for the Bulldogs. He told affiliate Web site BullDawgJunction.com, "I am going to Mississippi State this weekend. And when I get there and talk to and see the coaches, I am going to commit to them." LSU and Alabama have also started recruiting Carr, who would like to pursue playing basketball in college as well. Plays WR,CB,QB

If he does committ he will be a huge pickup this early in the year. Steve has Carr as the #3 player in the state and he could help us immediatley at CB if he doesn't play WR. West Point also has OL/DL, Curtis Virges, that we have offered who Carr would help with.

nelson didn't have quite the offers this guy has. Unless he just wants to play with his brother, I don't think we get him, and we haven't had the best of luck with siblings lately.

He's an elite athlete. No question. I see him as wideout or SS, OLB. Regardless, he's a player you couldn't keep off the field as a freshman. Good kid. Absolute leader.

i heard that he will basically be lining up rental cars for the coaches who can recruit. now, i don't know whether only on-field coaches can recruit or how many football personnel are allowed to make contacts. does anyone know the rules and whether he can still recruit?

i certainly hope he can, because he has shown his worth in that department. i did hear, however, that he is unhappy about his situation because he can't actively recruit.

on the hurst note - their dad played with croom, and that's a big reason nelson came to starkville. maybe he can lure his brother, but in this case, losing croom may actually hurt us with a recruit. hard to imagine, i know.

that was from september...he was planning on committing but then decided to wait.

"I just want to wait and take it easy for awhile," said Carr. "I kinda wanted to jump the gun a little at first but now I want to see what schools are interested and how many more offers I can get. I want to look at other colleges and see what all of my options might be." from BDJ article in November
