true. it's just curious to me that people would assume his offer list is faked. From all accounts by recruiting guys he's pretty highly recruited. Everyone realizes that the big schools take 3 star kids as well right?

I can only speak to UGA's specific case. The only TE's UGA has recruited since spring/summer '12 (before this class' junior seasons) have been Jeb Blazevich, Milan Richard, and Tyler Luatua. It was a deal where the first TE to commit got the spot, and UGA felt confident on both Blazevich and Richard (Herschel Walker's nephew). This makes it somewhat hard to believe that Pierce had an offer from UGA. No offense to Pierce because he appears to be a solid prospect, but he's not the type of can't miss prospect that UGA would offer super early.

I'm imagining he was a backup prospect for you. Probably had a conditional offer based on none of the top targets committing. I don't think this kid was a can't miss prospect but he's definitely solid. Probably a very high character kid as well.
