We have JG and Mackenro at Star with 2 more recruited this class. Would have liked to seen Ruffin get a shot elsewhere before moving him to Star

Mackenroe is injured and out for the year... Ruffin is taking that spot for the time being. When both guys are healthy, we'll see how it shakes out.

At least let the dude have one spring practice before we decide if he's a wasted DB.

Wasted? He's a True Freshman. He's got time to do something.

4* Jordan Colbert - We missed on the best S in GA

So you expect us to get every guy we ever target. Roundtree was pretty much always going to UGA. Colbert is pretty damn good.

None of what you posted contradicted the fact that we've been recruiting pretty well at DB lately so I'm not sure why you posted that.

He is out for the season but I don't know if injury was ever confirmed. I heard grade issues was also a concern, but again, nothing ever confirmed.

No. We backed off due to Chris Westry moving higher on the staff's CB board. When AU backed off DS AU was leading.

Another dumb move by the staff. Assuming Frost and Cass come back one of our best playing will be backing up Frost who never comes out of the game. What a waste of talent

Rashad Roundtree is not a natural, high football IQ Safety. Thus his drop in polls. He is a talented tackler, but will be a RS/ST guy. Jordan Colbert will be a better player, and contribute early in some capacity. IMNSHO.

How are we looking on DE's? Only 5* I saw it looked like we weren't even on his radar and the 4* looked like a 50/50 split between us and UGA.

After seeing how bad losing Lawson hurt our defense I'm not confident in depth at the position.

Side note. This is the first time I've looked at the thread and I'm not digging through 400+ pages.

We are actually likely in Beckner's (the 5*) top 3 although he is likely to be a DT if we land him. D'Andre Walker is a toss up right now between us, UGA, & UT.

I was actually referring to Cece on the OP. Haven't checked any recruiting sites yet.

Sandman does not update the OP often. Not a knock on him, just reality. AU has been out for Cece for a whiile now.

Justin Garrett was moved to WLB from STAR because he gets lost in coverage way too often. Think about it, Robenson Therezie and Nick Ruffin are both better in coverage, which is why they get snaps at STAR. IMO, Kris Frost and Cass McKinzy are also both better than Justin Garrett at linebacker, and Tre Williams might even jump him next season.

I don't know his relational preference nor is it any of my business.

All we ever heard was how good Garrett was in practice.

People forget how good Frost has been this year at times, not like I blame them for it. But he has his moments.
