Lots of smoke about Drew Richmond going to UT.

That might be him looking out for himself because the main reason Van was headed to OM was that.

I'm kinda glad for him to have moved on honestly. Kid is about as confused and attention-needy as I can remember seeing in recruiting.

Nah, this stuff happens multiple times every year. Look at Arden Key, he's all over the place, can't even commit to a visit without rethinking two or three times. Some of these kids think if they make exactly the right choice of college, it'll make them millions in the NFL three years from now.

Unfortunately, for most of them it'll never happen, and many of the rest will be later round draft picks where initial contracts don't make as much difference. The top players will get drafted high from just about any good program. And then conditions change after they get into school anyway, so all their choosing is for naught. The chance of actually picking the exact school that has the best outcome is probably like throwing darts at a list.

Come on Slayton needs to be a Dawg and I hate that Godwin isn't announcing until late Wednesday. I'm gonna be worried about these two all the way up until the faxes come in

A really REALLY shitty one. I have no idea. By all accounts he was all Dawg from my super-connections. I haven't asked recently but jesus, man, wtf is this.

Wasn't he supposed to be an EO, and now he's all over the place? After we brought in Shotty? Screw him, good riddance imo. WR is not a make or break position.

And Preston Williams can KMA too.

I don't give a shite if they are divas or not. Give me talent. Good, well-rounded, committed kids are great but titles are won when those guys are complimented with selfish assholes who can frickin play. I don't like when I read "screw him, he is showy/needy/thug" because it's sour grapes.

We could trot out the fricking grid-iron gang and no one would care if they won. It's the same thing when our fans cling to our moral victories when it comes ot oversigning, our rule-following shite, and lack of a worthwhile bagman. If we win no one would care.

Anyway, am I glad we are done with the drama of Jefferson, yea, but I am still pissed we lost him. And I would take Preston Williams yesterday.

If you wear another teams stuff during a coaches visit or get sent home on a recruiting trip, screw you. Odell was a thug, but a helluva player. He was mean, dumb, but not a douche. I would not want to win if we had to become AU to do it. And I am very much opposed to the "Georgia Way".

I assume you're talking about Van Jefferson. I don't know why people get mad about this stuff. Recruits are going to do whatever they like. Sometimes there's corruption and UGA doesn't play that game well. Just the way it is.

Don't get mad over what an 18 yr old does. Suppose we'll be fine with or without either. Tongue & cheek...but both can KMA.

really wish we would've landed Cager, kid is going to be an absolute star. Big, with great acceleration and great hands.

FWIW....from a Vol insider type....

I think Allen is all UGA. We basically have no spots left, Quarte Sapp is committing tomorrow and we're putting the full court press on Drew Richmond. I think we've decided to wait and see what Richmond does and if he sticks with Ole Miss then our class will be done otherwise we'll have to make room.

I'll concede that. Wearing another teams colors on a visit is the one way I will say frick it.

And I also feel I should say my post isn't directed at yours really. I read 10 pages of this last night and got mad at all the people acting like it was good we whiffed on VJ and PW

I don't think people are glad we lose VJ. Just think they're relieved the drama is over.

You got it Hata. I'd be happy if VJ signed with us. Preston can frick off though. He'll fit in well at UT. Betting he will be a bust.

I saw a lot of people saying that but yall know what I am talking about. The people who spurn Georgia who are then deemed unworthy and we act like we don't want them. I hate it when we do that or other fan bases do it when we flip.
