Just saw where we lost the two star QB Sparks to Purdue. Also saw we offered a big 6'5" QB Steven Frank out of Illinois. He's an FAU commit. Anybody know anything about this kid?

Here's a few notes:

- I got a note from Catholic (New Iberia, Lou.) High standout OL Wyatt Richthofen that he has reopened his commitment and will be visiting Southern Miss on Jan. 22nd. Story upcoming.

- Rivals100 DL prospect Jeffery Simmons is still very much in play for Southern Miss, as you know he is the younger brother of USM defensive lineman Dylan Bradley. Here's a video from earlier in the week: Watch Here

Laurel (MS) High standout quarterback Keon Howard seems to have emerged as Southern Miss' top prep prospect at the position headed into National Signing day.

The longtime Memphis commitment had previously scheduled a visit to Minnesota for this weekend, but it now looks like that trip to the frozen north won't happen.

Per Jason Munz redshirt junior Parker Adamson will be moving from QB to TE this spring.

Just went over schedule.
37-19 looks doable to me against what should be a decent SOS.
We should hit and field well--may not be as good up the middle--SS/2b in particular.
Pitching, lots of new faces, some kids will have to step up.
Would love Gen4AD thoughts or others who were able to watch Fall ball.

That and 3 wins in the turny should put us back in a Regional.
Anything less will be disappointing.

Interesting that one of those n ms teams is bragging about how much better their players hit in summer ball.
Never seems to translate into improved hitting during the spring season for us.

I saw in 1975, USM played Cal-state Fullerton in Biloxi. Where did they play ? Assuming Biloxi High School.

Not on our committment list in rivals

I used to be able to clear the Hattiesburg American cookies from my internet files and could continue to read Hattiesburg American articles online. Now for the last several days that does not work and I go straight to a order online subscription page. Has anyone else noticed this?

Tee, I got in from deer camp this afternoon to discover the envelope with the "Wendy" campaign pledge was in the mailbox. Apparently, It just was not picked up Monday and the rest of incoming was just piled on top. I'll see that it is picked up tomorrow.

According to Munz on Twitter. Fantastic honor for him!

HATTIESBURG, Miss. – Southern Miss Athletics will celebrate National Signing Day for football, Wednesday, Feb. 3, with socials taking place in Jackson, Hattiesburg, the Mississippi Gulf Coast and Mobile, Ala., with members of the Golden Eagle football coaching and administrative staff making appearances at each location.

Buffalo Wild Wings in Hattiesburg (3 Churchill St.) will be the next stop on the tour from 4:30 - 6 p.m., and will also feature coach Monken and staff members in attendance along with a short program on the day's Golden Eagle signees. Food and drinks will be available for purchase at the restaurant.

There will be two evening locations as Monken and select staff members visit the Buffalo Wild Wings in D'Iberville (3850 Promenade Parkway, The Promenade) from 7-8:30 p.m., while other selected staff members will travel to Baumhower’s (3673 Airport Blvd.) in Mobile.

by his tweets.

Kobe Jones of Starkville has a ton of offers but has no apparent leader to gain his services....also, Jerome Johnson of Bassfield has his choices narrowed to OM, Louisville, and So Miss....anybody have any insight about these two?

Thread on the district says he committed to the good guys

On Tuesday night the Southern Miss coaching staff reeled in a commitment from Athens (AL) High standout Terrance Watkins.

Watkins took to social media to make his commitment known.

.....analysis based on input from this Collegiate Bowl that he is participating in. He is the topped ranked prospect on the National team and that places him as a 4th round projection. It was stated that he has a high up-side. He could make a lot of money at the Combine next month.

Per Jason Munz' twitter account ... Laurel QB Keon Howard has cancelled a weekend visit with the Gophers to make an official visit to USM!

This just ain't right. It's just amazing (pisses me off) at how much money the SEC is making:

$36.3 million per school.

And that’s before a single ticket, radio spot, luxury suite or t-shirt is sold.

New Hope (Columbus, MS) High stand-out guard Terryonte Thomas is set to make an unofficial visit to Southern Miss this weekend. The talented 6-foot-4, 200-pound combo guard took some time out of his Wednesday to talk with BigGoldNation.com.
