Well, if it does then you have to assume we do it too. I doubt Kirby just started adding to his recruiting bag of tricks that he learned all the details of from Saban.


That’s where your wrong buddy.. a lot of this stuff happens with Boosters.. Saban has our boosters and REC club at bay. They do what he says, cause we don’t want to lose him. I doubt Kirby has that power at Georgia.

We signed Tua with Jalen looking like a star freshman QB.

I'm waiting on them to put Surtain name up since they said they can't talk about them until the papers are turned in.

If boosters ARE paying players and you don't think there is, at the very least, a wink wink/nudge nudge through back channels from the football administration...............come on.

UGA boosters just all of a sudden decidedly to go rouge and start paying random players?

So kids turn down big $$$ to come to Tuscaloosa?


Don't think so

It feels like Auburn gets 1 kid every year at the last possible minute....

If Ross goes to AU, the least he can do is say, "The University of Auburn."

Kirby is a charismatic mother fricker when it comes to recruits.

Who is the biggest sleeper in this class? Moody or Eddie Smith?

Paying players is just a part of the game. They get money even if they don't ask. Georgia and Kirby were a perfect storm like Bama and Saban. Great recruiter, loads of in state talent, easy path to the SECCG and lots of state pride. They are the only true threat to the Bama dynasty.

Maybe I'm just being a homer, but Moody looks like 4-star talent to me.

Let's see how our new staff does against UGA the next couple years.

He will be a waste at AU. Seems like that offense would put guys in the league at WR but nope.

But Georgia signing all the kids from Georgia and a few big prospects from Florida is not anything close to the #1 national WR prospect from Chicagoland and a OL from Jacksonville who had never visited campus signing with Ole Miss.

Georgia signing all the kids in Georgia is something that has been looked at as possible if they found the right person, and they've ALWAYS signed elite kids from Florida.

That's the thing its not our staff vs theirs. Look at next years rankings I think its at least four kids from Georgia in the top twenty. He has the best job in the nation.

I’m just saying it’s being talked about.. a lot. Especially by inner circles and coaches. Even Boz said it on here.. flags are being raised. I won’t saying anything else, but bookmark this.

Let it be known that I wasn't joking when I said Kirby has been throwing Great Clips membership coupons around like candy on Halloween. Impermissible benefits will be his downfall.
