UGA lock, Bama 2nd, we're 3rd.
Ya I will be stunned if we landed Webb

I do think we get Putnam though
Agreed & sounds like could flip Eguakun too
Just need to add a tackle to Osborne/Jones/Eguakun/Putnam & that's a real solid class

Solid yes, great or elite no. We need to add one more elite prospect to go with Putnam
No idea where he comes from though

I would call signing 2 top 150 OL pretty great
Tho I agree on the elite part. However, not sure AU will ever recruit "elite" on OL. The mistake under Grimes originally was the lack of consistently bringing in good to great groups to develop

Per Keith
Staff believes we're still in it for 5* LB Nakobe Dean. Marcus Woodson has a good relationship with Dean and his mom. Dean also wants to go into Engineering. Bama is team to beat.
Confidence growing in our ability to land 4* RB Mark-Antony Richards or 4* RB Kenny McIntosh.

Well to his credit he's going up against Brent Key and Sam Pittman
Grimes won't be around much longer He may be on the chopping block along with Chip if things don't improve

Alright time for some sunshine from our man KN. Had an insider up this morning
- T-WILL & Woodson watched 5* LB Nakobe Dean's game this Friday & staff firmly believes they are in the hunt. Big reason why is how close Dean is with T-WILL & Woodson, how close Woodson is with Dean's mom & fact that he wants to be an engineer. He will take an OV in either October or November. Staff view Bama as their biggest threat
- AU becoming more confident they will land one of 4* Mark-Antony Richards & 4* Kenny McIntosh. Both have seemed like locks to Miami for some time but now confidence has really eroded in Coral Gables that happens. AU's edge right now for Richards is they want him at RB which is where he wants to play, MIA wants him at DB. Apparently the OV with McIntosh went so well there are some that think AU team to beat. Not a consensus on which one is more likely but as of today KN's sources think AU gets one
- Tyler Fromm will find out this week if he's cleared to play again been dealing with a shoulder injury
- KN says that even if 4* CB Jalen Perry elects to decommit from the Dawgs dont think AU is a major threat because staff have other guys higher on the board (not sure who they are)
- AU is feeling realy good about landing 4* OG William Putnam & 3* C/OG Kingsley Eguakun. Both would like to have decisions by early November. If that happens, AU would still keep a spot open for 5* C Clay Webb but right now they probably sit #3 behind UGA & BAMA

Getting Pappoa and Nakobe would be sick.

A juco tackle that can play would be so nice

My understanding is AU doesn't really see many viable JUCO options this class unfortunately
Honestly not sure who the 2nd tackle will be....

Then we need to cut Gus' pay and put it towards hiring one of these two.

Chip Lindsey makes 700k. That makes me sick

Are we looking at any Juco QB?

Kelly Bryant just came up on the market.

I would honestly be cool with us going in this direction for next season. He lost his starting job to a possible generational QB (I know that's ridiculous hype but Lawrence is a beast) & has already shown he can be effective in our style of offense
Not sure we will tho unless staff thinks someone like Willis will transfer this offseason

What is interesting is Gatewood look comparable when they played each other in HS.

Bryant also sat behind Deshaun Watson for awhile before starting. Gatewood probably needs the same time

KN says that 5* LB Nakobe Dean is now set to OV for Liberty game
Said while the opponent isn't necessarily that impressive the timing is what was important for AU getting one of his final visits

Speaking of Gatewood, did anyone see him on the sidelines Saturday night? Dude looked really distant, and no into the game at all after the fourth down try

Sorry, but this is dumb. It's very difficult to have a coherent offense if we consistently allow defenders in Stidham's face.
All Chip had to work with Sat was the WR screen and RB draw on third and long. Stidham is even missing wide open deep throws right now. He hits a couple of those and things look different.
Only a very small amount of this falls at Chip's feet. Guys just need to play better, bottom line.
