Which recruits will be in Starkville this weekend?

[Duke Humphrey]

I pay very little attention to recruiting, but am curious as to who we will see be trotted out at The Hump.

 

[Xenomorph]

NCAA say don't trot out recruits at basketball games.

 

[HD6]

Is that a new rule, I distinctly remember seeing Mullen bring the recruits in at a timeout last year.

 

[Xenomorph]

You can't bring them onto the court and make a spectacle.

 

[Tin Cup Cowboy]

I think it's more a matter of how you approach it. Walk them in and stand at mid court and it's a violation. Walk them in and across the empty court to their seats or walk them in and down baseline during time out or half time and you are fine.

 

[512taylor]

Walking them in and handing them an airline ticket to Haiti is a violation.

 

[aTotal360]

I better cancel my hot air balloon rental.

Arguably the best kicker in the country(Bulovas) Army All American and dropped one from 50 in the game
Arguably the best punter in the country(Day) Army All American
The best coverage LB in the country(Gay)
The best JUCO WR in the country(Guidry)
Elite RB(Hill)
Elite CB, Good WR(Bowie)
are the known highlights IMO -- with a couple of expected surprises. Mainly, this is the "in-state" weekend. So there are a bunch of other commits and prospects taking visits for it.

I always remember Jackie would bring them in some reserved seats in the student section at the first TV timeout so everyone would notice them coming in and then they would leave before halftime.

 

[Cary Hudson's little bro]

SoFlo OT Cordavian Suggs and TX ILB Mohamed Sanogo will be here too

[HD6]

That's what Mullen does to.

 

[OurPrideAndJoySnots]

Do we still have that remote control balloon that drops stuff to the crowd? I am feeling very Hughey this morning.

 

[KurtRambis4]

This is another reason

, as I alluded to the other day, as to why it'd be utterly ridiculous to not have a big crowd there Saturday. Imagine all of our high-profile recruits coming in to a crowd of 6000.

on top of the football recruits, we supposedly have some basketball recruits coming in.

To those that dont don't want to go because a two hour drive is too much for a Saturday, thanks.

 

[Junction John]

Not to start a whole AD-bashing thread, but this would also be a good time for the fanbase to get together on the 'blackout' thing.

Make a good showing for TV, and more importantly, the Croots.

 

[engie]

Yep.

Could be wrong, but I think we are going to go well north of 6k on Saturday though. Enthusiasm is catching on fire, at least around me.

 

[DFW Dawg]

First commitment of the weekend is already in.

[BulldogBlitz]

Walking them in and handing them an airline ticket to Haiti is a violation.

is it ok if we walk them in and introduce them to their new moms and dads?

 

[HotMop]

My kids were planning on that hot air balloon ride. The tears are flowing you bastard.

 

[Go Budaw]

You're calling Bowie an "elite CB"?

Seems a little premature. Not saying he couldn't be, but pretty much everyone who wants him is projecting him at WR.

 

[engie]

That's because he wants to play wr...

his future is at cb.

 

[Go Budaw]

Well, guess I wasn't sure he was considered "elite" there already, but whatever. We need help at both spots, so if what you say is true we better be all over his ***.

 

[engie]

I'm projecting. Elite may not have been the right term -- but like CJ Avery I don't think his skillset matches his rating at his current position. Basically.

He's wearing an Ole Miss shirt in his photo on that link.

 

[DFW Dawg]

His crystal ball was 100% Old Piss. So I guess we flipped him. Not a huge get according to his rating, but a big body 3 star and local kid.

 

[woozman]

From reading 24/7 he will most likely be a sign and place due to grades.

 

[FreeDawg]

Keep an eye on Jordon Carty. Love his frame and upside. Think he has a big future once he puts on a little muscle.

A guy that lives in New Hope, 45 minutes away from Starkville, calls us University of Mississippi State...nice

I think Bowie is supposed to OV next weekend?

 

[TheStateUofMS]

When do we get the report on their dance moves, though?*

 

[PBRME]

When they visit Oxford.
