Re: Safety C.J. Hampton Updates (Ole Miss Commit)

The latest from BOL, they are saying that Hampton had given all indications to the Bama staff he is committing to Alabama. Furthermore , most prospects have stated that they would be shock if Hampton was not in Tuscaloosa when its all said and done. But and its a big BUT , the BOL mods also state that ole miss feels confident as well. So who the heck really knows????I am not to optimistic when it is this close esp. involving a certain Mississippi school. Hampton recent " de commitment" doesn't make me feel warm and fuzzy.

Sounds like things are coming together...we'll lose a few and pick up a few better guys.

We have a de-commit from Ole Miss thinking about Alabama, and a de-commit from Alabama thinking about Ole Miss. Time warp - we are back in the 60s again.

Re: Safety C.J. Hampton Updates (Ole Miss Commit)

Never put anything past Ole Mi$$. I lived in Mississippi for many years and spent some time around both OM and MSU boosters. Trust me, they've been dirty for years and usually weren't too shy about it. I'm sure they've gotten renewed arrogance after Scam skated at *U, so this sudden recruiting $ucce$$ makes perfect (dollars and) $en$e to me. I wouldn't bank on anything with Hampton and Jones, but hopefully we'll be pleasantly surprised.

Love all the play on words. Are you a poet or rapper?
I thought Hootie and CJ would want to play together, but maybe they want to play against each other. Unless the Bama staff is backing off one of them.

What time is the announcement today?

LOL, neither one, but if I had to choose I'd pick rapper. At least you can be rich and famous without having to die first. I'd have to change my name though. The Kellogg's people probably wouldn't let me get away with Special K. I'm pretty cheap, so maybe K-Mart?

I don't read too much into recruits wanting to play together. You hear stuff like this every year and usually it doesn't end up that way. I expect Hampton to sign with us later today.

He's an early enrollee.
That's great. He can't sign to a school until February 5, though. And until he enrolls in school, I won't feel comfortable about his commitment if he commits to Alabama.

Re: Safety C.J. Hampton Updates (Ole Miss Commit)

Bone from Tidesports is predicting him to Ole Miss
Yep, looks like ole mi$$ strikes again at the 11th hour. I know this isn't south panola where they have so much influence, but it seems like we are striking out with all the MS kids now (I'm not counting Juco guys). we have had successful kids come through from the state (Norwood and Steen), but now we aren't really bringing anyone in.

Oh well, I think we'll be fine either way and still finish with the best class in the country.

Re: Safety C.J. Hampton Updates (Ole Miss Commit)

Pretty big miss for Bama if this is true. Just a week ago, people around the program considered him Bama's; seems like it was a done deal, now most are expecting him to go to Ole Miss. The other decommitments were shrugged off because of Hampton and Humphrey; now it is looking dim for CB's. But this would change back to bright if he does pick Bama.

You're right, RTR91. Thanks for clarifying. I do think he sticks with the school he selects today though.

Re: Safety C.J. Hampton Updates (Ole Miss Commit)

3rd hand info, but an OM booster said about the OM staff, "they're gonna get us on probation."

So he de-committed a couple of days ago to re-commit to the same school. If this is the case, that is BS and sounds like the OM staff is pulling some strings to get more attention to the program. There is something incredibly dirty going on in Oxford.

No question in my mind, especially knowing what I know about how they've operated historically. Somebody needs to put a stop to their crap before it gets too big to rein in. It's one thing if they are buying 2-star recruits from Miss. St., but this is getting to be a bit much.
