The fight to retain him really is about to heat up

I'll be stunned if Davis signs his LOI here.
He'll go to UGA, and be poorly used like most of their receivers.

Anyone got any news on anything? I'm pretty starved for info here. Cockytalk is shite now and it's just 50 year old men shouting at each other over the internet and the same recycled meme shite from 2006.
I need crootin info. I need it bad.

Here's some new stuff on 2016 USC WR commitment Bryan Edwards out of Conway High. He participated in The Opening Charlotte regional camp, and apparently did well. He has also been invited to ESPN's The Opening in Oregon to be held later in July. He's a prospect that will rise up the rankings as his recruitment winds down:

Bryan Edwards accomplished more than one goal Saturday by competing in The Opening Charlotte regional camp.
The Conway High receiver and Class of 2016 Gamecocks commitment earned an invite to Nike’s elite event The Opening that takes place in Oregon in July. Along the way Edwards felt he answered any questions scouts and recruiting analysts might have about his ability and potential.
“I think I did very well. I tested well and I competed,” he said. “I was a three-star recruit, not too highly recruited. I think a lot of people were sleeping on me and what I could do because of the lack of exposure and lack of camps I went to.”
Edwards was among the few-hundred high school prospects who turned out at Mallard Creek High to showcase their skills in the one-day educational (and competitive) event. The 6-foot-3, 208-pound rising senior ran a 4.53-second 40-yard-dash and a 4.31-second agility drill, and recorded a 37.7-inch vertical jump.
Not bad, Edwards said, for his first large-scale camp outside of on-campus events organized by USC and Clemson.
“People definitely doubted my speed,” Edwards said. “They doubted what I could do on the field. I think I came out here and did well.”
In recruiting circles, Edwards is considered a four-star prospect by Rivals and ESPN, with Scout and 247Sports listing him with three stars. The 247Sports Composite, which factors in all networks, results in a high three-star rating of .8727, or 71st best receiver in the class.
The Scout rating could be in line for a bump, according to network recruiting analyst Michael Clark, who listed Edwards among his top senior performers at The Opening event.
“Another prospect who deserves a bump in his ranking on Scout,” Clark wrote. “Was looked at more as a possession-type receiver, but he was in great shape, a little taller than expected, and he was arguably the top wideout on Saturday. He caught everything, he got separation, and he gave quarterbacks big windows to throw the ball to.”
Edwards’ offer list, according to 247Sports, totals seven schools and includes USC, Clemson, Georgia and Florida. He committed to the Gamecocks on March 28 as part of a junior day event.
“The Gamecocks were just the spot for me,” he said. “They’ve been recruiting me since I was 13 years old. They never slowed down. Even when people had doubts about me and what I could do, they kept recruiting me.”
Edwards was born in Kansas but raised in South Carolina. The trip to Nike headquarters for The Opening will be his first time on the West Coast.
The competition level, featuring mostly players from the Carolinas and Southeast, was high in Charlotte, Edwards said. The best-of-the-best prospects nationally, more than 150 of them, will join him in Oregon.
“It’s definitely something I dreamed about,” he said. “Ever since I knew about these Nike football camps, I always wanted to go to The Opening. It’s a blessing. I’ve got to thank God.”

To the surprise of exactly none of us.

He’d be a hell of a safety! But I think we’ll settle on....

He'd be a WR if he comes to SC. Probably a WR that has a better shot at All SEC, All American and to be drafted in the NFL. Hopefully those things are important to him and he LOI's with SC.

Just curious, but what is this based on? Besides Alshon Jeffrey, I couldn’t name another successful WR from SCAR. Not trying to be a dick, but your statement doesn’t make much sense seeing as UGA has SCAR covered in every major category, All-SEC, All-Americans, NFL players, etc.
Last point, let’s not forget UGA has Jacob Eason coming in 2016. A lot of recruitniks are calling him the best QB prospect in the last decade. High praise

SC has had Spurrier Jr now as the WR Coach for 10 years. UGA has a new WR Coach this season, who I don't believe has been a collegiate WR Coach before. Tenn's WR Coach has been the past 2 seasons.
https://www.saturdaydownsouth.com/sec-football/wide-receiver-u-sec-last-decade/
The above link shows the number of All SEC, All Americans, and NFL Picks for WR by SEC Schools for the past 10 years. All the numbers for SC were earned by Spurrier Jr as the WR Coach. UGA's current WR Coach didn't contribute to those numbers and the only 2 WR's that count for Tenn's WR Coach were 2 draft picks (neither made an All SEC/All American list.)
Over the past 10 years, with Spurrier Jr as our WR Coach, SC has had a better track record of 1st Team All SEC, All American and NFL Picks for WR's than UGA or Tenn.

Who was the last GA receiver to break 1k??? also I can't name one other GA wideout other than AJ Green.
Also Ace Sanders and Bruce Ellington send there regards

I didn’t realize we were using a such small sample size (10 years). Seems convenient, but I’ll concede. UGA has rarely featured a WR. Interestingly enough, 3 of the top 5 career passing leaders played at UGA. Surely that means something?
I was under the impression we were talking historically, so I was going to name a former SB MVP. However, I’ll cap it at 10 years to be fair to CIYE argument.
If this is your argument, please accept my gratitude for solidifying my original point. Like I said, outside of Alshon, it’s almost impossible to name another big time receiver from SCAR.

Only fans typing posts on a msg board give a shite what happened 15-20+ yrs ago. Like Clemson fans still acting these days like they are perennial national championship-contenders based on one fluky season 30+ yrs ago when they actually got close enough to compete for one, and actually won it. Nevermind the fact that they never really got close to it beforehand, and never really got close to it since....
This is a recruiting thread - recruits could care less what happened back around the time they were born. The above link CIYE posted is relevant because the position coach that Davis would play for at USC was directly responsible for those stats. He's still at USC doing his regular thing....

And only fans typing on a message board give a shite about calling themselves "WRU" over a 10 year period. Honesty, has it translated to success on the recruiting trail?
My point? While the link provided is certainly relevant to the discussion, it doesn't mean anything to a HS player. It's message board banter material, that's it.
And please don't compare me to a Clemson fan, I hate those frickers. Thank you
