Did playing Mississippi State in the bowl game open a bunch of eyes, or was that a coincidence that we're getting interest in Starkville specifically?

Altmyer is born and raised in Starkville. His dad used to be the orthopedic surgeon surgeon for Mississippi State. He and Trey Petty were HS teammates briefly. It's not a coincidence at all.

I'm just waiting for some recruit to say they are "infinity percent" committed.

Yeah, but what about "infinity....and beyond percent committed"?

Recognizing that I finished grade school way back in 1965, I thought a maximum of 100% is the limit in this context. New math I guess. Now that that restriction has been lifted, it does get difficult to interpret the intent of this commitment.

It’s like high school GPA. The max used to be 4.0 but now you need something above and beyond to stand out.

not something you see every year
kid finishes high school in one year, flips from Fla to OleMiss cuz Kiffin gives him a spot on the roster
and speaking of GPA's - dude has a 5.34

Finished his classes as a freshman in high school? I mean kid seems like an absolute stud(brilliant stud at that) but please please please if football doesn't work out there are so many important fields out there that need that kind of go-getter before the injuries pile up.
