I said early last recrootin season that if we split Shumpert and Conner with Ole Miss, we'd done our job. Obviously we all knew where Conner was headed, so for the late person that meant we had to sign Shumpert. He's a prototypical MSU type player. We got him and pretty much every other instate prospect we planned to get, except Mix. Who knows the real story there. And for all the worrying about flippin' n ****, we really did win the battle instate, even with losing Kailo Moore. Probably will again this year.
Will be nice to have them on the defensive this year, since they seem to be getting all the early commitments. Nice to have them committed, yes, but you have to keep them.
