Mullen didn't want this guy for whatever reason. He went to visit Fields and Emory Jones on his first day on the job and just saw Corral this week.
People really thinking a top QB from CA is choosing Ole Miss over the entire Pac 12, Florida, etc....dude didn't have many options. Supposedly who beat Wayne Gretzky's kid's ass then was ? at a football camp and some other off the field BS. I dont know how accurate that is though. -
We gonna be battling Bama for Jobe. They always manage to get 1 kid we really want. Last year it was Jeudy

So Jobe going to Bama is official now?
Tired of seeing the elite FL players leave the state for Bama, Clemson, Auburn, Ohio State, etc.
No state pride at all down there. But hey whatever.
