Ole Miss - and Robert Nkemdiche's Mom - Still Have Hope

In June, Grayson's Robert Nkemdiche shocked collegiate football programs nationwide with his announcement and verbal commitment to Clemson.

But according to SBNation, in a September interview with ESPN, Beverly Nkemdiche said that "[Robert's] decision is not final. He's just a teenager, and people are forgetting that. We had never discussed Clemson, and I am unhappy with Clemson. I'm not there, so I don't know for certain, but I feel like Robert was pressured into this decision."

This week, Nkemdiche says that his recruitment is still crazy and Ole Miss is still making a push. And while it makes no difference to his dad, Mrs. Nkemdiche wants him to go to Ole Miss. According to Nkemdiche, "we have not come to an agreement on it yet. It is tugging my heart in two different directions." 

Beverly Nkemdiche is a state legislator in Nigeria; according to the SBNation article, Clemson coaches may be planning a trip to visit her.
