  Deuce Night down at George County. You've got a piece up on him.
• 0:05
  I know that. Obviously he's got a lot of attention. You can make
• 0:08
  an argument he's the best player in the state of Mississippi committed, has committed
• 0:12
  to, or committed many month months ago to Notre Dame. I was talking
• 0:15
  to somebody about this yesterday. If it felt like that commitment may stick.
• 0:19
  You know, some of these guys, it does stick. You look at
• 0:21
  someone like Dante Dodel from picking un went to Oregon obviously transferred over to Nebraska.
• 0:26
  But sometimes it sticks. Sometimes you get closer to you know, having
• 0:29
  to to take off to those places, then you may change that though,
• 0:33
  But your thoughts on ole Missus chances to uh, you know, kind of
• 0:37
  sway him from the Irish and get him in the rebel camp. Yeah,
• 0:42
  you know, I think if if anybody in South Bend is slightly worried about
• 0:45
  anybody else, obviously I think Ole miss is one they'd be worried about.
• 0:48
  They've come Adam hard and stayed at him hard, and you know, we've
• 0:51
  you know, our recruiting guys have kind of followed him around early part of
• 0:54
  the summer when he's been at camp, so I know he's out at the
• 0:56
  Elite eleven right now. I think out in Los Angeles finishing, you know,
• 1:00
  all that up. And but yeah, Notre Dame is where he seems
• 1:03
  to be. He just had a I think he had his official visit this
• 1:06
  past weekend. So obviously, you know, he puts up a bunch of
• 1:07
  photos on Notre Dame stuff and the phrasing both well if you're a Notre Dame
• 1:11
  fan. But you know, Kiffin has been known to get guys and you
• 1:17
  know, as we've seen good guys after they go somewhere with this transfer portal
• 1:19
  stuff, he's you know, he's not shy and saying, you know,
• 1:22
  we may lose an in state kid, but then we managed to get him
• 1:25
  to come back, you know, you know, like with Henry Parrish coming
• 1:26
  back after a couple of years away and and some others, and you know,
• 1:30
  he's made large strides positively and in state recruiting, and you know,
• 1:34
  landed another one, and Andrew Maddocks down in Oak Grove, brother of AJ
• 1:38
  Maddocks, who was already up here that they flipped from A and M kind
• 1:41
  of close to the end last year. He got a Kyle and Deer out
• 1:44
  of Equipment who just on three has him as the second best in the state,
• 1:48
  and Andrew Maddocks number six in the state. And there you know ratings,
• 1:53
  So you know it's going to come down to the end. I think
• 1:56
  December fourth, the signing day of this year, and it chooses to,
• 2:00
  you know, get this done in December instead of waiting until February. But
• 2:02
  I think all miss is going to hang in there until until we just get
• 2:06
  some kind of point. Blake, this is it. I'm done. He
• 2:08
  you know, closes everything off. But I think Kiffin's gonna make Notre Dame
• 2:12
  sweat it out until the very end.
