OM Spirit saying 2013 recruiting class is already taking shape and should be an incredible class
They already have Davion Johnson committed, who is a pretty good pick up. You would have to think they lead for Conner and Mix out of USP, and Shumpert from Tupelo/Itawamba has said they were his leader, and they once had Kalio Moore committed to them, and he is a bit of a legacy there. They are going to do pretty well. Everyone is going to be after Conner though, wouldn't be shocked if he winds up at Bama or LSU. Plenty of time for us to get back in the game for Shumpert, who we really need. He is the first workhorse back to come out of MS in a few years, probably since Dixon. Moore is a good player with great speed, but I don't know if he is an 25 carry guy like Shumpert. So, they'll get Mix, Johnson, and Moore most likely. They've got a great base set up for them next year with guys that have ties. The state is loaded with offensive lineman next year, which is good for everyone. Jake Thomas from Columbus is probably the top guy and we lead for him. Memphis is also loaded next year with good talent, so it will be interesting to see who can pull the big names from that area since no one team really ever stakes a claim to it. Long long way to go obviously, but I don't think MS has the depth in 13 as it did in 11 and 12, but the top flight guys are really good. We'll have to take some Bama and LSU scraps, but should start being able to recruite a little more regionally with our continued success on the field. </p>
