***2018 Recruiting***

What Ole Miss, the SEC, and the NCAA cannot allow is someone like Breon Dixon to transfer. Dixon was not in the 2016 class. He was not at the recruiting visit where Freeze misled players, however unintentionally, into believing the NCAA investigation was essentially over. Dixon knew the investigation was ongoing and that Ole Miss would take a larger hit than a “couple of scholarships.”

Of course, you don’t want a discontent player on your team and in your locker room. Let him walk, but make sure he sits a year and pays his due, just like anyone else transferring across the country.

Seems to be an open question based on when he signed.

Eligibility up in the air pending NCAA ruling on Shea Patterson.

Sounds like we just need to sell him on his visit and he’ll just stay for 2nd semester. Visit runs up to start of it.

Battling Wisky.

Only question is if he has to sit a year.

We currently have 14 commits.  Frost says the number is 20.  With Lee gone, we could sign 22.

Now can sign up to 23 with Gates gone (includes the +3).  Wouldn't be surprised to see us get the 25* if the staff wants to get that high, as I am guessing there could be a couple more departures we may hear about in the next few weeks.

*25 would include transfers into the program (Dixon, Vedral??)

I would also assume that we would be on the market for grad transfers at positions of big need (OT for instance).

If Vedral was coming you would think we wouldn't be after a 2nd QB in this class.

Is there any actual smoke to Vedral?

And if there is, maybe we lose more than Lee?

I wouldn’t hold my breath with Vedral.

Breon Dixon originally committed to Georgia before ending up at Ole Miss.  Had a who’s who of football offer list.  Would take in a heartbeat.  As others have said the Shea Patterson decision will set the standard

 
Said he's mainly considering Nebraska and Wisconsin and will probably visit both but not sure if he'll visit Wisconsin.

Yes, that's what he said.

Visiting here next weekend.  Also trained with Eric Johnson.

Yeah, not calling anyone out at all, but his visit to us would have to be a major bust for him to not end up here. 

I believe he couldn’t enroll at Nebraska if he takes that visit to Wisconsin, right? Too late in the semester?

sort of similar situation to Honas, right?

Could also help our chances with Owen Poppe, which would be a huge addition to our linebacker position if he comes here.

Thought it was telling that said if he decided the OV weekend of the 12th that he'll probably just end up staying here. That would be an exciting get with a year of college under his belt. Hope that waiver would go through! If not, could he use that redshirt during the transfer year?

Yup he said if he likes the visit he'll likely just enroll Monday. Yes could RS and not lose a year.

 
Being that the last day for students to register for the spring semester is 1/16, if he leaves he after his visit then he isn't coming.

If he stays does he just crash on Mo Berry's couch for the rest of the semester?
