I doubt it. He had UAB on his "short list" at one time along w/Alabama, Ga, UNC, Miss St, & others. His dad is asst coach at Miss St. I suspect his release will have severe restrictions on it, such as, no SEC schools..

Reach out to him, make room if needed. Don't make the Jacorey Williams mistake again.

RE: Garrison Brooks requests release from Miss State
Garrison is totally out of our league. This move by him seems to be par for the course considering how he publicly broadcasted every second of his recruitment last summer. Then again it may be a personal matter. I'll just say I'm not surprised.

Whoa.
Is his pops up for a HC job somewhere? Or looking for an assistant coach job outside of Starkville?

About the same time athletes learn they don't have to sign a binding LOI.

About the same time athletes learn they don't have to sign a binding LOI.
While HS athletes have been told for years that the Scholarship papers and the NLOI are entirely separate documents, most are still so ego-driven by publicity about NSD, they disregard that information. Besides, if they refuse to sign the offered NLOI, they face the possibility that another athlete might take their place at their preferred school.
One way to change this would be to force schools to combine the two documents so that when a coach cuts a scholarship athlete (as they must by 40 of every 125 to get to 85), the NLOI is cut as well giving the athlete complete release.
