re: 2016 UGA Recruiting Thread (commits, offers, visits, etc.)

So he got his feelings hurt bad enough for his Dad to call the coaches and threaten to not consider UGA. The coaches call and apologize. Now he is as solid a 2017 commit as you can hope for, ready to recruit for us and everything? I'm not saying you're lying about what you heard, but all of that is so over the top. Even if it is true, makes him seem so fragile that a commitment at this point doesn't mean that much to me.

You have to look at it as a whole and not just this weekend. Richard was always Georgia's to lose. He had also already planned to announce this December where he wanted to go so he could help recruit his class. There were some shortcomings in the Richt era in his recruitment. For whatever the reason, he wasn't invited this weekend and he thought, "frick it" if it was just going to be more of the same.

He's had a relationship with Kirby since he was a freshman. Somehow Kirby and the other coaches talked him off the ledge and he obviously committed. Now that he has committed, I will ban myself if he doesn't sign with Georgia.
