'17 MS RB Cam Akers (FSU commit 12/27)

[bignewt]

I thought it was reported a week ago that it was between FSU and TN? How did Ole Piss get in the picture? Just because he goes to HS in Mississippi he will automatically go to Ole Piss? If that's the case I guess we are still in running for Jacoby Stevens and Tee Higgins.

If ole miss lets Akers get out of state their class is a failure.

They have a RB coach? Weird.

Easiest coaching job in the SEC lmao

That goes for miss state as well.

Double failure.

Pretty sure it already is, they're sitting at #68 on rivals right now. They need about 5 Akers to call their class a success.

 

[QuickSmurf]

They tried so hard to get Kongbo too

Sh!t happens... we let Higgins go to Clemson after being committed to UT for a while.

Nope its losing a kid in their backyard that dictates everything.

 

[QuickSmurf]

It boggles the mind why any stud rb would consider ole miss. They literally dont even run the ball. They have no history of running it with Freeze.

I thought maybe your post was sarcasm.

How is players, in multiple sport, getting credit for classes they didn't attend and don't exist not worse than players getting paid?

Because those classes were attended by regular students not just athletes furthermore none of the coaches were involved with placing their athletes in the class except possibly the women's coach plus this is an academic issue not a sports issue the NCAA deals with the athletics part of college not academia that is governed by another agency. Again if you actually do the research you would see that NCAA has nothing and North Carolina is refusing to bend for them even an inch which is why they gave them another notice of allegation with basically no new evidence just different wording. The NCAA is just posturing for more time

Roll back 5 pages and its a done deal to TENNESSEE, i bet his wallet is alot thicker if this is true.

And we may be stealing the best player in Alabama

I think they don't want to let the 'hometown' people down or cause Akers undue scorn before he picks BUT I will say Cam is an adamant Mississippi boy, very proud of his state. The fact he is doing it front of his hometown raises an eyebrow and not easily dismissed. Would he disappoint everybody? Something to consider.

Clinton, MS is a ways from Oxford. Most of the people down Herr aren't even Ole Miss fans. Majority are Hammers or Bayou Bengal fans. Ole Miss doesn't dominate the whole state in recruiting. Far from it.

Your birds don't know. He is not going to OM. That's one reason why he's so quiet.

"Lets him get out of state?" LOL.

If that's true..that had to cost them a fortune. Which would be very ballsy considering the AA is camped out on their campus.

Perhaps but he has stated more than once about representing the state and being a (Rebel/Bear/whatever the heck they are) fan.

Sweet ride! Bama's compliance dept. investigates and documents the purchase and source of funding for all players' cars.

...and Men's Suits???
