we suck at recruiting.

we suck at recruiting.

Its a long way until Feb....

 

[GOOD_DAWG2.0]

Damn I am ready for the NCAA to pummel that program back to incompetence

 

[Uncle Ruckus]

You think it's a coincidence that the two biggest recruits from Starkville this decade go to Mississippi when they're being coached by that ********** from South Panola who funneled every 17er in that program to Mississippi? I'm more surprised we were able to keep Kobe Jones away from them than I am that these guys went there.

 

[TBone.sixpack]

Who would that be? I am out of the loop

 

[coach66]

I wouldn't get to worked up. He will soon

have mor information to make a better
decision. Rebs are telling these guys that
all is well.

 

[TheStateUofMS]

It's still bizarre.

We have the DB from Oxford committed now Tyler Williams. I saw ESPN now has him a 4 star. I really like his video. The kid is from out of state originally, so no ties to Ole Miss, but I would bet if Ole Miss goes after him they get him.

This is unreal, sad and incompetent at recruiting. Something needs to change. If it's the town, I wish the recruits would be asked that, but surely that's not it. Staying in Oxford isn't that much more appealing than staying in Starkville if you're a native of the towns.

 

[MaroonNation]

He wants a Dodge Hellcat just like AJ Simmons is driving.

Fire that dude

 

[Wooly17er]

If his middle name is Benjamin he had cruel parents

Cruel anyway, honestly.

I think you meant Jeffrey Simmons? Can't believe you ratted out your own team!****

 

[Uncle Ruckus]

Ricky woods. The ********** who didn't lose a game from '03 until he left for a job in GA, then came back and coached at NWMCC. That ****** is your problem. That and we suck at recruiting in our own backyard.

 

[TBone.sixpack]

If he is helping Ole Miss recruit right in our back yard and we are doing nothing about it then it's our own damn fault. That is flat out unacceptable.

 

[OutaStatePlates]

I hate it but

I can't fault a 18 yr old kid for wanting to go attend college away from his mother's watchful eye. A guy like this either grows up dreaming of playing for the hometown team in front of hometown folks, or he grows up itching to get out & experience college on his own terms.

I hate that this is the 2nd year that a good, local guy went the other way, but I wish him well. I hope he tears an ACL before the next Egg Bowl, but otherwise I wish him well.

 

[121Josey]

It's not a good look. For you or for us. Information or not.

 

[klong-dog]

Yeah that **** can't happen. We need to get Woods out of here.

 

[TBone.sixpack]

Well then lol

True and that's fine, he doesn't have to go with the "home team" but it's a big time problem to go to any other college in state, that plays in the same conference..

 

[coach66]

So the mother called our coaches at

3pm and said he's a dawg. I tell you
the Rebs gonna burn that place to the 17ing
ground.

 

[Dawgbreeze]

Follow the money. Pretty simple

 

[GOOD_DAWG2.0]

I mean why quit cheating until they make you quit?

 

[KurtRambis4]

I know this is

really 17ing early, but this is ridiculous. We have put an all NFL-caliber team into the league. Why the 17 aren't we selling that? Does people magazine trump that?

 

[Dawg1976]

The big question is.....when will the NCAA ever get around to handing out penalties?

 

[CooterBrown.sixpack]

Oxford blows Starkpatch away any day by any methodology.

 

[TBone.sixpack]

Douche alert!*

 

[BossDawg78]

Oxford blows Starkpatch away any day by any methodology.

It's not THAT much better. Certainly not to the point where athletes are flocking there, that's been quite evident since the 60s. Well, not without cash and prizes, anyway. I'll be the first to say that Starkville needs some work, but if the city would start advertising like Oxford does then people's opinions would begin to change.

 

[Uncle Ruckus]

Garden & Gun*

 

[treeddeep]

Huge recruiting miss for Mullen and co. These threads always start the same, Oxford isn't THAT much nicer. They aren't choosing UMiss because of Oxford, the bars, the restaurants, etc. they choose UMiss because we are being out recruited every step of the way and nothing seems to change that. NOA, Freezes name drag through the mud, rumors of post season bans. Nothing.

We have to look at the root cause. What is it? It's our recruiting staff. UMiss has their nuts nailed to the wall right now and they are still going to take us to the woodshed on the recruiting trail aGAIN. It sucks, but I'm not going to feel sorry for myself or the program. I want to know what we are going to do to fix it, and what we are going to do to make sure we don't keep losing guys we can't miss out on.

 

[biguglyjoe]

We're a track school anyway.

 

[Uncle Ruckus]

WBB

 

[coach66]

Of course you are smart enough to

Realize the illusion ole miss creates
about their school, frankly it's embarrassing.
They spin that **** 24 x 7 and still they haven't
won a title in 65 17ing yeRs. They are a pain in
the *** with their marketing and spin but not much
more than that. They are a bunch of loudmouths.

 

[TBone.sixpack]

It may be simple but they are getting away with it in a big way.

 

[KeyserSoze1999]

Like squirrels furiously storing up nuts to get through the long Winter---Ole Miss is furiously storing up Recruits to get through what might be a tough probation.

 

[aTotal360]

If that's our concern, we're 17ed.

 

[HammerOfTheDogs]

Can he sign with a team that won't be playing in 2017? #DeathPenalty

 

[Dawg1976]

How's that? They will continue to cheat and do whatever until then. If the penalties are minor, we are indeed 17ed.

 

[ezsoil]

No ... Starkville PD is a a group of useless, scum that must have been the last ones picked in little league or couldn't get a date to prom. Driving while black is a serious crime that does not go unpunished . We could eliminate 90 % of these pieces of **** and be better off. They don't protect they are just drains of tax dollars.m

 

[SPMT]

Pure dawg. Live in Starkvillle. Oxford is a better town to hangout in.

If I were a kid looking to play ball there, a "better town" wouldn't be my deciding factor. The dudes are douches, there are more women, the alumni compensate me much better. Money over bitches is the deciding factor.

 

[JungRebel]

Embarrassing to and for who? I perhaps would have upvoted your post about not winning a title in 65 years but I would've had to go back 75 years to do so.

 

[OrrDawg]

Any kin to Izzy Gay?
