Pickering, one of the top defensive linemen in the nation surprised all and committed to Mi$$i$$ippi $tate today. The bidding may have just started.

So when someone doesn't commit to Alabama, it's because someone else paid more? I wasn't aware that's how it worked.


I had much rather be tried by twelve than carried to my grave by six!!!!

Of course that is how it works.

They didn’t want him.

He was afraid of competition.

He hates short coaches, etc.

He's a high value recruit but not one of the super elite prospects at #47 nationally. Mississippi born and bred kid who has been a State lean for a very long time and had a crystal ball rating of 98% to State since his Jr year in High School. This isn't a real big shocker.

For State it's a huge pickup but for most of the other schools he'd just be another 4 star.

Alabama wasn't in the mix for this kid and the OP never mentioned Alabama. LSU and State were the only two teams the kid was really considering although he did have an OV planned to Auburn.


With State's recent history it's not out of the realm of possibility anyway.

See how it plays out, there is one recruiter at another school that has said Pickering is one of his high value recruits.

Yep, that pretty much sums it up. There is really no other reason someone wouldn’t choose Bama.... grin

One day when the sun burns out, what happens to the planets? They will be nothing without the sun. College football revolves around Saban and Alabama and will be nothing when they are gone. So, yea, even if Alabama wasn't recruiting him, they are what makes it all work. slap grin

Oh he definitely had an offer and I'm not saying he never considered Bama. He had a lot of good things to say about Alabama after his visit, and his mother wanted him to commit. I'm just saying that at the end it came down to State and LSU.... I know a lot of LSU people who thought he was theirs.

You're correct that he didn't mention them but we all know what he was getting at.

I never fault a kid for staying home and supporting his home state. I'd like to see more of it.

He was on the Bama list, but he wasn't at the top.

He has met Saban several times. He has made several unofficial visits to Tuscaloosa in the past year.
