I would ask you if you honestly buy into the "natural ties" ********, but then again when do logicical thinking and OM fan ever go in the same chapter, let alone same sentence. Theoretically every school has a tie in some way, shape, form or fashion to every recruit in the nation (their brothers, girlfriends third cousin's nephew went there, visited on a field trip, read about them on the internet, found a t-shirt in the dumpster, etc). Did that guy from Indiana last year have a "natural tie"? Let me guess, his 4th cousin once made a trip to Texas and passed the U of MS sign on 55, thus creating a "natural tie" according to OM delusionalists. Using this ******** explanation for "shocking" recruit decisions is idiotic. If there was a tie in, wouldn't you think that at some point, someone would have said something about "thinking or wanting to go play with his Best Friend?" If they were such great friends, why is the 247 writer so shocked? This guy does this for a living. Guy had been a TX lean the entire way and only a monumental event would sway him. Give he is only a 3 star, what at OM is better than what TX has to offer? I better grab a snickers as I await your response to this because you will never come up with one. The only way I don't choose TX over OM is if OM pads my mothers checking account. No way I choose a small MS town and University that was founded for specific southern traditions over one of the best cities for young people and a world known university.
