Get him on campus and things can change quickly. I don't think he's visited LSU yet.

ugh. Is there anything more annoying than someone accusing a school of paying kids? As if LSU doesn't do it either. All of them do it. Deal with it.


I empathize with your statement, as it does get tiresome after awhile, but while I do agree that every school does it, it's a lot less suspicious when a program has some success and then starts hauling in top recruits. All I'm saying is that I can understand why eyebrows are raised.

Let us not forget he has already decommited once from Mizzou and we have a long summer of camps and visit's and a 2013-14 football season to watch.

His pledge is there, but there is way to much time till NSD 2014..

In this case though it would be like accusing them of only getting a commit from Jesuit because they paid for him.

Bauer basically goes to the St Louis equivalent of Jesuit.

The other part of it is that no one will give Freeze credit for being a good recruiter. Dude won at Arkansas St. pretty quickly. He's new blood @ Ole Miss.

People will give Franklin the benefit of the doubt, but not Freeze?

I mean, I get it....it's Ole Miss, but it is what it is. Schools have to start somewhere at some point. First time for everything. The whole "oh, they're paying for things blah blah blah" is old. Every school in the country does it. Who cares?

Freeze is a hell of a recruiter. HOwever, I just can't see him staying there too long.

As much as I hate to say it... THIS ^.

No reason to throw out that accusation first thing with no proof. Just makes us look butthurt about it.

We are looking great at the skill positions for 2014, but I still hope the staff locksdown some more of these excellent O-Line prospects. Quality depth is a must at O-line... You never know when the injury bug will strike like it did last season. You see it all the time where all it takes is one guy rolling up on the back of your LT's leg at practice and hes done for the season. Even with all of the safety precautions (leg braces, etc) injuries to OL are still pretty common.

Where would he go? Ole Miss would match any salary offer at this point and he has Ole Miss connections throughout his family and life.

Unless he gets fired, I seriously doubt he'll ever leave Ole Miss. Its his dream job.

These aren't the first or last big name recruits to come to OM. Even under Nutt we were in the Top 25 recruiting rankings.

USC will come calling for him in a year or so.

It'll be hard to turn down a job, making the same pay while not working as hard. He'll probably add 10 years to his life if he accepts the USC job

By the time USC makes a change, they will want a clean break from the Kiffin/Orgeron era. Freeze does not give them that. They will go in a different direction.

He's at his destination job as hard as that is to believe.
