"All three of us rushed for over
a 1, 000 yards this year," added Kendrick Hardy. "Matthew Wells had
a great year too. All of us did. I finished the season with 1, 762 yards and 17
TD's."
Hardy turned his focus to finding his school of choice after
his season was over. He headed up to Oxford for his third game this season to
watch the Egg Bowl.
"My father came with me this time. I liked it
a lot. I did not think they would beat them that bad."
What was Hardy
keying in on during the game?
"I wanted to see how much the ran the
ball. I like how they look. I like the plays they run. I like how they give the
ball to all of their running backs and not just one. That gives everyone a chance
to show what they can do. I do not mind sharing the ball. I have done it my career
here, so it is no big deal. I also like their staff a lot. We have become pretty
close through this (recruiting) process."
The Rebels tried to continue
the momentum they have built with Hardy with an inhome visit on Tuesday.
"Coach
(Kim) Dameron came by the house. He was talking about their academic facilities
and the staff in general. We sat down and watched a highlight tape. That was cool."
What
was Ole Miss' main selling point?
"My education. They are going
to make sure I get my education."
Hardy followed that inhome visit
with a scheduled official visit to Ole Miss this weekend.
"I am going
to Ole Miss this weekend. That is the only one I have set up so far."
Any
chance Kendrick could commit over the weekend?
"I do not know yet,
but I might. It is going in that direction."
Anybody else lined up
to visit Scout.com's #45 nationally rated RB this week?
"USM is
coming by my house Thursday. Oregon is coming down here to see me soon. Pretty
much all the rest of the schools who have been recruiting me just fired their
coaches, so I do not know what is going to happen with them."
