Duke was I think, at least by some of the services, but the question was about HS WRs.

NCM was 5* and the #1 player in the country when he committed on rivals. Then he suffered a leg injury his senior season and fell in the rankings.

Tray Blackmon aka The Little Ball of Hate. He may have the best high school highlight video ever. Dude was an actual beast!

Cowart definitely was.

Frost was on Rivals but not really close on the composite.

Here's a little nugget on how far behind we are from an elite talent standpoint recently compared to our rivals.

We have signed 17 5 stars ever (since rankings started 20+ years ago)

Bama has signed that many since 2021

UGA 20 since 2019

Not breaking news or anything but pretty sobering.

I’d settle for signing 22 out of 25 4*

We’ve had plenty of 5*s over the years but all of ours never seem to pan out to full potential. Derrick Brown and Caddy are about the only two I can think of that lives up to the billing


Monty Adams?

Poster who does edits with Hayes Fawcett on On3 is hinting at Alvin Henderson committing soon.

Sounds like the visit couldn’t have gone better for Alvin Henderson, #1 RB in ‘25

quote:

“To be real, by far probably the best visit I’ve been on out of every visit I have taken,” Henderson said.


quote:

“Sitting down talking with Coach Cadillac (Williams) and Coach (Hugh) Freeze,” Henderson said. “The things they broke down to me and how they made me feel, like every coach I’ve talked to, no coach made me feel like that ever out of all the visits I’ve taken.”


Also said he’d be back anytime Caddy asked him. Which might even be next weekend for a larger junior day event

Not counting my chickens yet but isn’t it crazy how much better an asst coach can recruit when the HC is engaged? Now bring these 5 * or top fruits home guys!

This is refreshing to see top talent feel this way. Freeze is looking like the missing piece. It would be bad arse to start landing these 5’s and elite 4’s. I want to get back to winning our share of games against our top rivals and being a force to reckon with.

The fact is that all these thUGA fans are starting these threads about Auburn only shows that they're scared of what we can be. I promise you if we steal any one of their players or commits, they'll be screaming to the heavens about "tHe BaRn gAvE tHeM a BAG!!!!!". It's nice knowing our rivals are talking about us recruiting well again and it's so sweet. Let them talk about us, when they get proven wrong, we can clown on them

Get in a top 5 class and they (this includes Bama too) will piss their pants

They won't admit it, but they see us as a sleeping giant that's starting to wake up.

I remember when we got lectured on tRant during the coaching search and when we hired Freeze by Ole Miss, thUGA and Bammers for having "too much of an ego" and that our program "isn't anything special"

Fun times.
