Who looks better to you guys?
We are heavily pursuing both at RB...(I'd take either of these guys over Chubb & Stanley Williams IMO)...
Michel is a 5 star player, and Mixon is a 4 star player, however, Mixon looks more explosive and has more break away speed to me than Michel...I would love to steal either one of these guys, but it is highly unlikely even though we are in their list of favorites...

I'd take Chubb over any RB in this class! He's a life long DAWG fan and will end up over 225lbs and us strong as frick!

To, not two.

Very different backs. Michel is more explosive and agile, just glides all over the field. Mixon is bigger. He can move, but he doesn't have the extra gear or the shiftiness that Michel has. Both have great instincts, and I would love to have either.
I think UGA has a great shot at Michel by the way. Could be considered the favorite at this point. Obviously it will be a battle.

Chubb's good and I would love for UGA to get him, but no. He's not on the level of Michel or Mixon. His instincts and movement are not nearly there with those two.
Him being a Dawg fan just makes him easier to recruit. That shouldn't be a factor in the staff's decision-making. UGA needs to get the best players they can, period.

Pretty similar to the Gurley/Marshall comparison. Mixon looks slower than Gurley though. Would be great to get both but Michel if I had to pick one.

Michel is definitely better than Mixon, and I really hope we get Chubb and Michel out of this class.
quote:Yeah, not like the plan of turning down a really good player who was ready to commit to try and go after a slightly better guy who we were in the top 3 or 5 for has ever backfired. Chubb and Michel should be our top 2 targets (I like Chubb over Mixon)

I'm not saying to turn down Chubb. He's a take, IMO. Mixon is a pretty major longshot all the way in California.
Right now, I think Chubb, Choice (don't forget him), and Darrel Williams are all takes. When one of them commits, the other two may not have a spot. Michel will have a spot until UGA knows one way or the other on him.

Michel should definitely have a spot no matter what, but how many backs total are we taking this year. Took two last year in AJ and JJ (not sure about Tramel yet). So take two this year?
Posted on 3/12/13 at 5:11 pm to Lord of the Board
2 probably. Maybe 3 if we can get the right ones. I think UGA would take a combo of Michel, Choice, Chubb or something like that. Not sure that Michel (or the others) wants to be one of a three back class though

Elijah Hood reminds me of a prototype Boobie Miles...
