and he would have been redshirted on our team and I think Mullen told him that. Thus him going to Ole Miss. The kid needs a redshirt year obviously, but he wanted to take the easy route and that's not how Dan works.
That statement assumes he would be the same player in Starkville that he is in oxford.... strength program is much different here...as is the enforcement of discipline...coaching technique...etc.... I'm not saying he would necessarily start...just recognizing the that it's not an apples to apples comparison....
never know what or if they could have been anything under Mullen. Mullen is a great coach, in that he tells it like it is, and believes in hard work and earning your spot. We might lose out on some recruits due to that, but I will take the 3 star with potential and the intangibles over the highly decorated recruit that has natural ability, size, and speed that has really never had to work hard anyday of the week. I know that that last statement has been made by several on this board, but at the end of the day, OM seems to suffer the most on "winning the recruiting season", then we do. Another perfect example, would be Georgia. They have had some really nice classes over the last several years, but have suffered from a lot of off the field issues over the last 24-36 months.
It's hard to tell a kid's character right off the bat, but if a coach really does his homework they can find out a lot about a kid in 12-24 months. I am not saying that CJ and Singleton won't be good in the future, but in Singleton's case, that's just one distraction that the coaches and players don't have time to deal with, plus it shows that TS cares more about himself then he does his team mates. Of course, this depends solely on IF this is true.

As a freshman all-star atOle Miss you get a free vehicle on the front end and then a pension plan when you leave. </p>
Do You people just sit around all day thinking of stuff to make up? he is on the team. Im sure he isnt happy being like 8th on depth chart and number 4 freshman behind brassell moncrief and collins... But he is on team and Will continúe to get more chances as the year goes on.... Why don't you people quit trying to start rumors...
Well, as of about an hour ago, Nutt told Chuck apparently that Tobias is on the team and expected to get some PT this weekend against SIU.
Start a rumor, it gets to the Spirit. The Spirit asks Chuck. Chuck calls Nutt. There you go.
I love the internet.
Seriously, I don't doubt that there could be some discontent from the Singleton camp (love using that recruiting lingo), but he should be fine.
He's hurt right now by the fact that he didn't arrive until August and the other frosh WRs were around most of the summer working with the QBs and learning the offense. If he's any good, he'll catch up quickly.

Ole miss brought in 7 wide receivers this year. Brassel and moncrief def will get a lot of snaps.. Tyler baker , Josh Pinkston, and tj worthy are for sure redshirting.. That leaves Collins Moore and singleton, the belief one will play and one will redshirt.. Guess we will see
