Oklahoma offered today. He's expected to flip.

247 talked to him and he said he's still 100% solid with MSU. One of the big reasons he committed to State was because he was going to be able to play baseball too.

Not saying that the he's going to flip, but schools don't usually offer this late unless the player isn't solid. It doesn't look good at least on the surface.

Isn't solid? He just 17ing committed last week. Dude has plenty of power 5 offers. I would agree if we were his only power 5 offer, but he has over 10 power 5 offers from the likes of Oklahoma state and Texas Tech so if he wanted to stay close to home, it's not because he didn't have choices. He may very well flip, but just because Oklahoma offers doesn't mean we should expect him to flip. One of the main reasons he chose State was because of baseball. That hasn't changed. Dak was offered by Lsu late and he was pretty solid, so don't get the whole player must not be solid. I think it means that Oklahoma missed on their top target at WR and went to their next option.

Farrar just 5 minutes ago posted a photo of himself in MSU gear on Twitter with a #hailstate.

Looks Oklahoma bound for sure.

Apparently he's expected to flip by by you so you should state it that way. Get tired of defeatist MSU fans. If he was a priority for OU they would have offered way before 10 days from signing day. Kind of reminds me when Dak was offered late by LSU but stuck with us and that was LSU offering a Louisiana kid. Farrar is not even from OK.

ughhhhhh

I am good friends with Steve Farrar, Zach's father. Steve and I have known each other for about three years and had offices next to each other for about two. We talked about Zach's recruitment all the time, including yesterday, and again this morning for over an hour. Steve told me that Stoops and Riley will be in the house tomorrow evening. Mississippi State is coming to visit again sometime this week hoping to keep Zach from going to Norman next weekend for an official visit? Not going to happen....he's going!

Someone at OU, maybe Cale, dropped the ball in his recruitment as he rarely heard from the OU coaches during the fall, even as Zach put up terrific receiving numbers for Southlake, one of the premier high school programs here in the Dallas metroplex. I have seen Zach play, he is a exceptional athlete/wide receiver, a great baseball player, sprinter, dedicated workout guy, and a great student with outstanding test scores.

The family has always wanted Zach to go to OU! Zach's girlfriend is going to enroll at OU next fall! The family is truly very excited to get the OU offer, even this late in the process. Sounds like Stoops/Riley can 'close the deal' tomorrow evening!!?

Farrar was asked how important playing the SEC was after he committed last week. He said it wasn't important at all since he grew up a huge Big 12 fan. Norman is 2.5 hours from his house, Starkville is 9 or 10.

Maybe we can complete a Hail Mary and convince him not to visit. Otherwise, like I said earlier, I don't feel good about our chances.

Apparently playing in the Big 12 isn't that important either since he could have already accepted a scholly offer from Texas Tech or OK State. Oh, and both of those are closer to him as well. Yes, we may lose him, but good grief some of you guys are like the French in WW2 ready to throw up the white flag at the first sign of a conflict.

Strat is a good poster but he's going to do this 2-3 times a year like clockwork...

Can't read your link. Have to be a paying member of some OU sports site (or maybe it's the 247 site in general).

Isn't it extremely difficult to become a member of The French Foreign Legion? I don't think that group even recruits.

Sad, because it's true. Mullen isn't the main culprit here, though. There are a few more recruiting **ahem** corners that could be cut in order to improve recruiting, but evidently those in charge refuse to trim the fat.

How in the hell did you survive the late Sherrill/Croom years?

You are a sadist. Only thing is the ones feeling the pain are those of us that have to endure your posts.

I have no doubt you will continue to dish it out. Crazy mother 17er haha

Small sample size but current.

Exactly. Makes me wonder why Merlin even let players from Miss. in the starting lineup. R Brown, Calhoun, Jefferson, and C Jones sucked a fat one this year and should have their scholarship revoked.**

Current sample but true.

Trust Dan with both recruiting and player development. There are plenty of talented recruits ready to come. Look at the success we have had with Dan at the helm. Relax and quit worrying about star power!

No surprise. This is Dan Mullen recruiting.

This is why AJ is so important. Homegrown and all.
