I like Cook better than Michel. Personal preference I suppose.

Honestly, I would probably put Mixon a little higher if the kid wasn't such a headcase. He screams bust in college in my opinion. Not because of lack of talent but just because of maturity issues.

On that note, isn't Chubb the #1 rated back out of Georgia for this class?

And isn't Michel the #1 rated back out of Florida for this class?

Those are really big states with alot of talent. It says alot to be #1 in either of them, at your position.

Big statement by both of the UGA pickups with getting that rating. As you have to be elite as frick to be top 2 in either.

Jalen rushing for 3357 yards on 317 attempts against the Nashville metro area talent makes a huge statement as well playing against the best HS football region in the state. He's shattered every state rushing record and the dude is just a freak athlete

Hurd and Michels are without a doubt neck and neck IMO but I don't see the Chubb is = or > then Hurd at all. Hurd and Michels both look faster then Chubb IMO

Sony Michels highlights

Nick Chubb

Jalen Hurd

Beech is a 5A and MBA and Brentwood are both A2

That being said Beech went 15-0 last year and 6 - 0 vs the top 25 teams within the 4A, 5A, and 6A divisions

Fournette
Cook
Mixon
Hurd

I think Hurd will be a TE/H-back but I think he will be very very good at that spot and it is for sure his best spot as far as NFL potential.

1. Roc Thomas- Physical, Elusive, hard to tackle......underrated pass catcher. Rumor is he needs to improve his attitude....That's "rumor" as I can't confirm...so I just state his case based on what I see on video.

2. Fournette- Great back at 6'1", 226 but he's older, more mature than other RBs in the class. He'll be 19 in January.......For perspective, Todd Gurley, 6'1", 232.... at UGA is just 5 months older than Fournette. Gurley is considered a top 2 RB in the nation heading into the season...Imagine if he were heading into his senior year in high school. Closer to his max maturity than others.

3.Sony Michel- If not for his ACL injury in 2011, he'd be #1 for me. He seemed about 85% last year...if he gets to 100%....look out. Great as a pass catcher as well.

4. Joe Mixon- The most versatile RB in the class. Very elusive for a taller RB at 6'1".

5. Nick Chubb- He's a grown a** man. Very powerful with underrated speed. Plays in a 1 dimensional offense....so he needs work running routes and catching passes. That'll come at UGA.
