It's not all on RD. It's on whoever feeds the info. Like Cheshire and I have discussed the info is passed down the chain to RD, Danny, Otis, Dudley following OV's. They have the exact quotes at same time.

Whoever talks to the recruits on visit or right after is terrible at it. Has to be someone in athletic department.

Did you see someone question Otis today about it on 247? He hasn't responded to it despite responding in the thread since the question was asked.

Our "insiders" are truly terrible and don't know how to play the game at all.

No game for them to play.

They just sit back and have lists of recruits visiting handed to them prior to visits and have quotes sent post visit.

Unless they see something on Twitter or they contact a recruit/coach themselves (rarely) they do nothing else.

Good thing about RD is he posts daily so sometimes he has OV/UV/camp dates months in advance.

Yeah RD is really the only one I really follow but it seems like he doesn't even have much info here lately.

He does at least toss out some kind of something pretty much everyday.

Meh, I wouldn't say it's evidence of shady practices by Richt as much it was Richt knowing he was fighting for his job and trying to shore up the recruiting class to play it as a bargaining chip for one more year.

One of the pro-Miles arguments the last few weeks has been the fact that his incoming recruiting class is supposed to be ridiculous. I'd wager that Richt could read the tea leaves at UGA and was trying to play that game as well.

That would be my guess as well. Just a man fighting for his job.

So if BB leaves Arkansas and knows it several weeks ahead of time you want him to trash Arkansas and your recruiting class?

It looks like he's staying at UGA in some form with the AD.

Lets see how it plays out but there is a happy medium in there between trashing the program and letting the kid know he needs to be committed to the school not the coaching staff.

I hear you. I just think it seems senile to question Mark Richt's ethics.

I highly doubt he stays on at UGA.

He has stated he wants to continue coaching. Too many openings right now for him to not be a HC some place else.

He just said if he's going to be a coach that he wants to be hands on. Sounds like he may want to just be a position coach or an OC.

although religiously i don't agree with richt. I love everything he stands for and I know he will be successful in whatever he does for the rest of his life. I'm hoping to poach whaley though. hopefully with richt not being the coach it will be enough to take him.

I figure Miami is a place to look out for richt.

also what does everyone think about this 5 star OT Patrick Hudson that is committed to baylor? RD has been alluding to this guy for months that he thinks we have a great shot with him. we are doing an in home visit with him today.

Les alluded to him using his recruiting class this year as leverage to remain HC during his post game presser the other night.
