Perusing the above, I saw several names of interest from the past.
Adarius Barnes from Port Gibson, MS was committed to us and flipped to La Tech on signing day. We didn't see that one coming and had to scramble to get the last player on signing day. Our first option was to go after the 6'7 lineman out of Houston, TX who had just faxed his signature to Indiana. Thus we missed on him. Does anybody remember who that last signature was that we got? I think it may have been Cochran.
Vernon Butler from Summit. I believe he wanted an MSU offer very badly but it never arrived. Defensive End.
Mahaffey the OL from Brandon. Wanted an MSU offer - and I think we were close to offering. He went to East Miss JC and is starting for La Tech. Good sized, mean streak. Watch for him.
Alex Woodall - Had an offer from MSU as a tight end but held out for an offer from a school who wanted him as QB. Tech fit the bill, so now he is on their roster ... as a Tight End. Son, what might have been had youi listened to the coaches who were trying to tell you.
There are others from MS but I don't know their stories.
