Surely this must all be a misunderstanding. I mean, the nation's elite football players don't need any extra enticements to flock to a garden spot like Northern Mississippi, play in front of 60,000 semi-interested fans, and wave that Rebel Flag, right? Right?
One of the most hilarious things about Tunsil. He was originally committed to UGA, but suddenly changed his mind at the last minute to OM. He was asked why, and he raved on and on about OM campus, fans at the games, etc. Problem - He hadn't been to campus yet. It was a royal screw up. They also landed Treadwell from Chicago that year, and Nkemdiche, who was a Clemson commitment for a long time.
