On Thursday night, Ole Miss commit Willie Gay, a four-star linebacker who recently announced he'll be playing in the Army All-American game, suggested on Twitter that he'd be in Oxford this weekend for the Rebels' high school football camp.
It was another good sign that Gay, a Starkville native who committed to the Rebels back in mid-June, was resisting the hometown pressure and sticking to his pledge to Hugh Freeze. But rumors started swirling the next morning that Gay wasn't going to make it to Oxford, and by Friday night he was instead on campus at Mississippi State for its Big Dawg Camp.
