I'm not surprised......he wasn't that great.....

Jay Johnson- Last Chance U from Bruce Mississippi ....

I remember in high school thinking he was over rated.....didnt really care if flipped from us to them.......his whole family was pushing him to MSU, while he was committed to them....and Im not so sure he has or is making his grades in JUCO....

Agree, they may have told him to look elsewhere but they did celebrate hard when

they flipped him.

Yeah. He's the definition of a tweener prospect that you hope develops into something and never does. He's been a SS to a LB to a rush DE. Never became SEC quality at any position.

They did add a player that Arkansas dropped. Low 3 star WDE from Texas. However while they still have 10 commits, swapping those 2 players dropped them in the national composite rankings to 59th

I have always thought there needs to be a better ranking system that doesn’t take into account the number of commits that you have. It should be based on average ranking for each player + extra points for the high end guys or something along those lines. It is pretty misleading to see a team with 10 commits that far back because they only have 10. The same thing happened to us when they had 37 players committed. That is the only reason they finished higher than us that year I think.

That being said, I don’t think they would be a whole lot higher because their class is trash right now. I am not holding out hope but it sure would be nice to see DD Bowie go somewhere else.

I think you can or use to be able to adjust the rankings based on average prospect grade on 247

Doesnt look like you can anymore. I am not sure average is the perfect way to do it either. If 247 wants to pay me, I will come up with an algorithm for them. Haha.
