I see they have offers out but Gunnell's the only one we hear that they're actively courting.
I get that he should get most of the attention but I think Orgeron has a tendency to get tunnel vision. He never thinks he'll lose a recruit, which is good when you're a recruiter but not such a good thing when you're the HC. The HC has to plan in case the guy says no.

Either there "is" or "was" some interest from Michael Johnson Jr. Not sure if there still is.
We've been schizophrenic about what type of QB we want and what type of offense we're going to run, so I have my doubts what interest was there, is still there.
IMHO we should be recruiting 4 heavily. 2 ea on first-commit first acceptance basis. Gunnell & Tyson as one pair. Johnson Jr and Baldwin/Phomm/Quad (pick one and pursue) as the second pair. Double redundancy.
My fear is that we're going to run into a similar situation as we did time and time again like with Felipe Franks.

Gunnell has been the only target for a while now, other offers are just "keep interest" "feelers" right now

Sounds like it's GG or bust for coach O. So like last year, with no backup plan, if he doesn't chose us, then who knows what will happen...

I miss the good ole days of recruiting:
JaMarcus Russell
Matt Flynn
Robert Lane
all in one class. I hate this putting all our eggs in one basket recruiting. Has really killed us over the years.
