Though reeling a bit from the decommitment from Marquez McNair, the Southern Miss Golden Eagles have done a great job of holding together a very good recruiting class. The loss of head coach Todd Monken could have been devastating, but the coaching staff kept things together for Conference USA's #4 ranked and #86 nationally ranked class one day in advance of National Signing Day.
Wide receiver was a position that the coaching staff targeted in recruiting and it has paid off handsomely. The Golden Eagles currently have the commitments of Isaiah Jones (East Mississippi CC), Shannon Smith (NE Oklahoma A&M), Allenzae Staggers (East Mississippi CC), Terrance Watkins (Athens, AL), and Brandon Rodgers (Mobile, AL).
