| Not optimistic about Nkemdiche (Posted on 1/18/13 at 9:45 pm)
I was in a grocery store late this afternoon and a young guy was all dressed in Ole Miss garb from head to toe, really too much. I had an LSU sweatshirt and belt on. I asked him if he went to OM. He said yes and he was an equipment manager for the team. I said, Well you must know where Nkemdiche is going to college. He said ,Ole Miss because his mother demands it, so he will play with his brother. She is in Africa , so when she flys here for a game,she gets to see both sons play in the same game in the same town. I thought she lived in Atlanta, but no, Africa. That's pretty strong pressure on him to go to OM. I'm not optimistic. I know he has a visit in 2 weeks, so we'll see.

When she flies in from Africa? So like what, 2-3 times during his college career?

Can't she just go to the Ole Miss vs LSU game so she can at least see one of her sons win?

Bottom line is that nobody knows where he is going and there is equal chance he picks LSU or Ole Miss. But like I have said in other threads, he is changed his mind about Clemson when he realized he could enjoy some free trips around the country where all the people he sees will tell him how great he is. Dude has a serious ego, just follow his Twitter and you will agree. He spends all his time asking fans of different schools to follow him. Great. I hope he choses LSU so he can become the beast he wants to be. If he goes to Ole Miss, he might still be a future first rounder, he just won't have any hardware to go with it.

Months old Germans. She is an ambassador or something that travels alot to Africa. This has been the main reason he is a heavy OM lean. Why does this change you optimism?

That makes zero sense brah. So b/c she travels to Africa often, her kid should go to Ole Piss?

No. If you paid any attention to his recruitment over the past 3 months you would know his mother wants her sons to play together. That is the main reason he is an OM lean. She travels to Africa alot and only gets to see her children play seldomly therefore she wants her kids to both play at OM. Again, the main reason he is an OM lean.

No. The Nigerians with money get the hell out of that shithole as much as possible. They stay in Nigeria only as much as they need to in order to keep their position and connections.

His mom is a politician. I doubt she views her own country as a shithole and she can't be away for too much if she is holding a political office unless she's an ambassador.

She could fly in once to see both LSU vs OM, then again to the SECCG and watch it with her son from Ol Miss, then again for a BCS game and watch Robert play again while in the company of her son from Ole Miss.

Stop the pain he is solid ole miss. He likes the drama and the attention. i think we got a shot at some other realistic recruits. willis for one. after that the crystal ball gets foggy. any one else see it more clerly.
