Definitely take a break SMD!! Come back in early June once camps get going and you will have a much better idea. If you read this board and others you have a pretty good idea of who our top targets are at different positions. For example: At QB we like Sandberg, Kincaide, Jennings, Buchanan, Staver etc all of whom are Elite 11 QB participants. Who do you take right now? Or would you rather see them all at MSU's camp and then decide? I think we are on a lot of really good kids with limited spots so we are building relationships and then will ultimately make the call at summer camp after we see some of the kids again in person. Same goes for the WR position. We have way more interest in MSU at the WR position from talented kids than we have spots for. At some point we will have to narrow it down and pick which ones we really want to go hard after.

MSU is not in a position to have to reach to take kids right now. Remember signing day is almost a year away. Kids will go through summer camp and some will wait until after their season to decide like Richie Brown, AJ Jefferson, Benequiz Brown etc. You just have to be patient and most importantly know we are on a lot of outstanding kids and will have it narrowed down to the ones we really want in the next few months. Also, a lot of kids will be impressed with our season and want to jump on board as well. You have to leave room for those kind of kids and not fill up in March when you could land some elite kids that LSU, Bama, Florida etc just didn't have room for.

Good points

I had been taking a break, but the Spring game and Super Bulldog weekend got my recruiting mind reved up.

I know we have some good recruits out there,

This is the time Ole Miss needs to push for commits. After they see the dumpster fire of a season they have kids will be trying to jump off that ship. If they don't gets some kids early they will struggle to get many. MSU on the other hand has the benefit of being picky and will benefit even greater coming off an 8-4 or 9-3 type season. This is a long race not a sprint. OM will get a few kids just because they are an SEC school that can offer immediate PT. You can't get caught up in stars. You have to see if they are meeting their needs at the end of the day.

For example, they signed about 3 kids 5'9 175 lbs RB last year. Their first 2 RB commits will be about the same size not to mention Kailo Moore. How many 5'9 or 5'10 175 lbs RB do you need? Oversigning at a position will cost them big timie because all those kids can't play. If you oversign anywhere it should be on the OL and DL.

i am predicting the majority of new recruits to commit the first week of July.

i feel the same way. no reason to worry about this every well like this

Great point a lot of these players with stars are from 5'7" to 5'10" great for track team but hard to find spots for those guys in SEC lineups to short for safety, cb, and wr don't buy into stars
