And now Mingo has committed elsewhere.

It’s the Ole Miss way. 4* wide receivers eight deep, and not much else. I will admit that the NCAA cloud has not affected their recruiting nearly as bad as I thought it would.
The sheer orchestration of the last week is both frustrating and hilarious. Is someone going to tell me that it was just a crazy coincidence that Jackson spends 3 days in Oxford, skips Big Dog Camp, flips his commitment, and then Mingo miraculously commits a day later?
And they just got a top 200 4* OL from Arkansas a few minutes ago. Darius Thomas. #3 prospect in Ark, which may or may not be saying much. But still.
That's because there is no cloud. That 1/3 scholly they got hit with is nothing when you have boosters paying tuition and more. And no bowl game this year...maybe. So what. They tell them they'll still have three more shots at one and in the meantime all the poon they can handle.
Only offers were from OM and Memphis
He didn't even have an Arkansas offer
Kid sucks
He's like that 4 star DB that played with Whop last year that signed with Kansas.
You sure about that, Clark? https://247sports.com/Recruitment/Darius-Thomas-102579/RecruitInterests/
Offers from UGA, Auburn, State, LSU, Texas, Ark, Missouri
National rank 170, OT rank 19
Not commitable. MSU and Arkansas never pursued. The only competition was Memphis
Shirley you don't just look at 247 offers and think that mean committable?
If a 4 * top 170 recruit doesn't have a "committable offer", he must have AIDS and / or be a special Ed student.

Arkansas doesn’t even want him. He’s highly overrated. He picked ole miss over Memphis.
Serious question. What are these rating services missing? All y'all keep saying is "he sucks".
What were they missing with Corleon Harris?
Updated film, real evaluations, etc

I tend to follow real offers. If a guy is a 4 star rated player but has Memphis and ole miss as his 2 final choices, that’s pretty telling that he’s not very good. Also, when the hometown school who is an absolute dumpster fire doesn’t want a “4 Star” O lineman, that’s also a good indication that he’s not very good. I’m not saying he sucks, but he’s overrated.
Be interesting to watch where he is during the season. We all know OM will take any 4* rated player they can get, just to prop up their ranking, and hopefully attract other higher rated recruits.
We took our whole staff to go see him in February. Maybe things changed since then, but we definitely wanted him at one point, especially with how poor our OL situation is currently. Ole Miss is only 2 hours from him though.
I'm searching for clarification... dont top athletes get a lot of sex wherever they go? Were the theater people popular at high school when yall were growing up? Is the idea that Ole Miss goes out of our way to make what's already going to happen happen?
actually heard a story about Greg oden...buddy of mine was at OSU when he played ball there. When he would show up at parties, he’d say “who’s sucking Greg odens dick tonight” and girls basically lined up lol.
Heard similar stories about Peyton in Knoxville, years after he’s graduated still.

Ole miss has already said that they are going to commit several guys for publicity and then drop them come signing day. Wouldn’t be surprised if he is one of those guys. Our fans are freaking out because we had a slow month of July and ole miss had a nice month with 2 players we certainly would take. I think after WR recruits see the Moorhead offense this fall they will at least take another look At us. We have a damn good recruiting class ourselves and possibly the best football season in school history coming up. Let’s enjoy the moment and not get caught up with 2 recruits. BTW, if we move jarrian Jones to WR, which I think we should, then that gives us
4 Star Jones
4 Star Torbor
3 Star Pruitt
Add these three with Austin Williams, Whop, Guidry next year and we will be more than fine at the WR position. Everyone take a deep breath.
I'm also thinking Marcus Murphy may need to come back to the offensive side of the ball, either at RB or WR. He's a difference maker and we are recruiting at a higher level on defense than offense at the moment. Would make more sense to put a guy like that on offense where he would have the ball in his hands.
Pruitt is the best WR/football player in the State. He has put up huge numbers for 2 years against the best Competition in the State. he will be a beast this year. everybody back off the ledge.
I honestly think many people do. They really believe the recruiting services are gospel.
Agreed, the season will change everything. The December signing period helps too, because it cuts down on the dead time in January for Ole Miss to pull Ole Miss stuff.
He's also another slot guy. We need some outside WRs that can present a deep threat.
This ^^ We need to sign a tall speedster type.
Jo Mo is learning how the Bears act during Dead periods.
**** you NCAA !!!
If Fitz can get the ball to the WRs... and they can catch it... I think we will start trending up for WRs.
Mullen pretty much played a style of offense that hurt our chances at WR, other than Dak's senior year.
