    Yeah, maybe so...I think Hunter would if given the chance, but a lot of the reason Jernigan is where he is probably has to do with the fact that there's always that NSD shocker, and I want him to be it.

    Region isn't getting the offer likely now with Turner on board. We would accept a commit from G-rob if he wanted to commit though but I don't think the staff will put too much time into pushing for a switch. We have limited spots left and have other needs to fill.

    Mickey Johnson at DT should be on that list and he was on campus today too for an official visit after calling up the coaches and requesting one recently.

    TK Fleming should be on that list as well.

    Chucky Hunter was supposed to be on campus today too but have not heard any confirmation that he made it.

    The reason I don't have Johnson on the list is because I'm not a big fan. He hasn't handled himself very maturely thru the process, and until now, hasn't seemed like he WANTS to be a Tiger. He's pissed off pretty much every school in the conference by now. But yeah, he's a good player.

    TK Fleming, I have really no knowledge about.

    Hunter, I'd prefer him over Johnson, because he WANTS to be a Tiger. I think he has a higher ceiling anyway.

    BHelm, how many can we take now, given the restrictions? I know attrition could play a role in this, but since that can't be predicted, forget attrition. As is stands now, how many do you see us taking? 23?

    Only people Mickey has offended are fans and paysites. He hasn't pulled any major offenses like we see with other prospects decommitting, lying to staffs, etc... Still Mickey and Hunter have grades they need to focus on.

    I think we take either 22-23.

    Awesome. Much rather this guy than the head case in Region.

    Coach Miles and Coach Wilson is doing a great job in recruiting the New Orleans area. I hope we do pick up another big OL so that we could run the ball better and take the heat off of Mettenberger. When he drops back in the pocket to throw the football.
