How depressing is the recruiting front right now? ...

Shmuley · Jan 10, 2010

From another board:

Out of Thompson, Robinson, Brunetti and Sanders, I think we get one. At least I hope we get one. But MSU will also have a stellar class of invited walk-ons. Probably the best ever for us!!!

People, the sheep are predicting this. Sheep.

We need something positive to start happening with this class. I don't want to give up on this class, but this is getting ridiculous.

Thompson's probably gonna go Ole Miss. But I really think the guys we have commited right now are underrated. A lot of these guys might be playing early. I expect Eulls, Carr, Robert Johnson, Carmon, Bohanna, Love, Ballard, and maybe Blaine Causell to all start by the time they are sophomores. This class also adds some talented athletes for depth at positions like CB, LB, WR, RB, and DL. I think the big thing is that for the first time in a long time, we have position coaches that know what they are doing. The team as a whole got much better as the year went on, and I completely trust guys like Hevesy and Melvin Smith to get these young guys game ready at whatever position we use some of these athletes. Freshman played well last year, and usually that's due to how well your coaching staff does.

Relax, Mullen wanted to do some interviews at the coaches convention this week. Should have one very soon

It was question. There's a post on the Spirit about it, but I don't have access to the premium board. Has he left or is that just speculation?

BillBraskyDOG · Jan 10, 2010

I haven't heard anything one way or the other yet. Not to say he wouldnt leave but I dont think anyone knows yet.

8dog · Jan 10, 2010

but there may have been some slots open that he can fill.

GBryne4Heisman · Jan 10, 2010

as Croom's last. Granted they signed under Mullen, but they all committed to Croom..

Having said that we need to land Robinson and Brunetti the most. Thompson might have the most upside, but we'll be okay w/ our DL w/o Thompson. Our QBs and OTs on the other hand need help desperately.

Mullen hasn't been able to land a QB, which is suprising to me. Dont hold your breath on Brunetti, and Nick Parker isn't an SEC back.. Having said that the RB from South Panola isn't any good either..

This is a typical recruiting year. We have a bunch of guys coming for their official visits and some of them will commit, and we may even be able to pull a surprise like we do practically every year.

And as far as the DC, don't worry about that either. Some people like South Florida still don't have even have a HEAD coach. I just saw where Georgia Tech just fired their DC, so they obviously are looking to. The convention hasn't even started yet.

We will have an OK class and we will have a DC. Hopefully a good one.

How depressing is the recruiting front right now? ...
