What are the board experts think our chances we can pull Gay and Jones and can flip Phillips?

It would be a win to get 1 of the 3 and outstanding if we could get 2 or more

Well we backed off jones.. which makes no sense..
I think it is more likely
Gay-Phillips----Tyler taylor or Ellis brooks or nick smith.. also if chassion is on board no telling how aranda would use him..and M Bryant is suppse to visit also.. this staff is going to have an exciting finish considering they saved all the OV's for the last month. Might be the most exciting NSD ever

Gay is playing games right now . He isn't coming here & I think Phillips sticks with OU. They should both come here and get developed by Aranda & play in the greatest stadium in the nation but for some reason I feel they won't

I'll be the one to say it. Never count your chickens when dealing with Mississippi kids.

Phillips will be a rough pull. He likes ou.

Why don't we ever say "it's tough to pull kids from LSU" or Louisiana ?

we seem to struggle pulling positions of great need every year...

We finish many many times in recruiting top rated studs...

"I Loved LSU", but " Blank University felt like home"

I am sure I am exaggerating the feeling many fan bases feel but dang, we need LB's badly...It's Aranda and LSU....a program that produces NFL players

I really don't think Willie is playing games like many here may think. What, honestly, does he have to gain by saying all the things he said? He went into details about LB positions. He had to have been already paying attention to LSU. I really hope we can get Willie! Jacob would just be a cheery on top and more unlikely. Anyway, ready to see how the staff finishes.

I know it...every year we have some one post something like "I don't care what source you have, he ain't leaving the state of Mississippi"

and boom, it goes down...all the while the player signaled he had zero interest in that decision.

NSD "uh, just felt comfortable "

don't see that happening this year, BilJ.

Perfect time to cherry pick from the state.

MSU and Ole Miss both 5-7. All the top players are flocking out of state. Hell, Ole Miss' top commit is now looking to possibly decommit and sign with FSU.

Well, a few guys a leaving MS this year, namely Akers and Brennan. I think there a few other this year, as well. Definitely more than usual.

This has a Leo Lewis feeling to it. State is like the sneaky kid that you don't expect to be up
to shenanigans but is.

more like all the top ones are.

I think only Kylin Hill will be staying in-state of the top 10 prospects from Mississippi.

I will be floored if Gay doesn't sign with State.

Accidental downvote does have a little bit of Leo Lewis feel to it but I do like that he seems to know about our situation so he must like us some

He committed to OM once already and showed very little interest in MS State. Unless State is going to $tep up the recruiting game to Ole Mi$$ levels, I don't see him going there. Not saying he is coming to LSU, just that I don't see him at State.
