I hope he has prepared himself to be disappointed. UGA hasn't won shite in my lifetime.

I hate we lost the guy who said he was going to be our biggest recruiter.



That's the gut shot, he was suppose to be the guy to help pull the class together as a commit.

YOU WERE THE CHOSEN ONE!

I think what this tumbling dickweed meant to say was its harder to do something special at uga because uga never does anything special, and at Alabama something special usually happens every year or so.

Funny how he tried to make it sound like nothing special was going on in TTown. Yeah I guess if the best dynasty in the history of college football isn't all that impressive to ya. lol what a tool.

After reading that garbage it stings a little less. All that bullshite about their word being their bond... uhh huh. Best of luck to ya Fromm family.

This is why I never want to hear whining about grey shirts and pulled scholarships everyone looks out for themselves.

eta: Yesterday: “My commitment with Bama is pretty solid. That’s pretty solid at the moment. I’ll just let recruiting take it’s course. As of right now I’m committed to them. I’m solidly committed, but you know, I’ll just let it take it’s course.”

I'd hate to see what a pretty weak commitment would look like

This has to be one of the worst weeks for Bama in a long time. 3 football players de-commit and our top basketball recruit de-commits. Also, we get knocked out of the NCAA tourney bubble watch with a home loss to a bad road team Arkansas. But it'll get better. I know it will. It always does. RTR!

Kirby actually wasn't a great recruiter as an assistant. He was a good recruiter, but he botched up several recruitments fairly badly. He's sort of a B+ type as a recruiter.

Read this earlier and didn't think much of it. Akers working out in Tennessee gear recently.

I think Kirby will have a Richtesque career. He will be at UGA forever but will have nothing to show for it.

Akers took a lot longer to decommit than most thought. This has been coming for a while. He'll be a Rebel. It was always unlikely that we'd sign 3. Harris and Robinson would be perfect. We just have to hold on to Harris.

Akers, IMO, has a chance to be a pretty solid RB, but won't be special. Harris and Fromm can be special. The Fromm loss stings a good bit more than Akers.

Akers will likely commit to OM sooner rather than later.

Who besides Fromm and Akers?







And really, did anyone expect to hold on to the top kid from Mississippi?
