Inside linebacker Clifton Garrett is a much sought after recruit in the 2014 class. The Joliet, Illinois native already has received offers from Ohio State, Oklahoma and Notre Dame. However, none of those top-end football schools are working as hard as Ole Miss to acquire Garrett’s services.
Garrett posted the above picture to his instagram with the included message:

Sending 54 hand written notes in a 24-hour timespan is a lot of dedication from a coaching staff. It’s no wonder Ole Miss, which finished with a 7-6 record last year, had one of the best recruited classes in 2013.
Effort like this can only help Freeze build a program in Oxford that can win in the SEC. Just get ready for more people to say Ole Miss is playing dirty.
