Southern Miss head Football Coach Will Hall and his brand-new staff had exactly two weeks to put together their first national signing day class and what they did in those 14 days is nothing short of incredible. Flipping three-star Taylorsville quarterback Ty Keyes from Tulane was the first domino to fall and it certainly wasn’t the last. Hall brings in a mix of high school standouts and FBS transfers, combining to form an 11-member class during the early period. Out of those 11, eight of them are high school signees, ten of them are three-star recruits, and another 10 of them are from the Magnolia state. Signees include: • Ty Keyes, a three-time state champion with the Tartars • Ridgeland wide receiver Richard Mays who decommited from ULM • Greene County offensive lineman My’Kal McLeod • Petal wideout Jeremiah Robinson, the only hold over commit from the old staff • Oxford place kicker Jack Tannehill • Lafayette cornerback Brendan Toles A lot of firepower coming out Magee High School in the form of wide receiver Zay Franks, who decommited from UCF and athlete Chandler Pittman to go along with a trio FBS transfers those being former Louisville quarterback Tee Webb, Missouri transfer Montra Edwards, and Memphis transfer Everitt Cunningham. Here’s Coach Hall on his first USM signing day haul. "Anybody that grows up in Mississippi has a little bit of chip on their shoulder and we wake up every day driven to prove people wrong and we kind of like to band together, and so that's been a positive in all of this. We're a Mississippi crew that believes in Mississippi. Y'all have got my number, guys. You know I'm here. Let's keep it going. To The Top! Sell Southern Miss cause we're back, baby. It's coming."  « Less
