Like someone stated before, we can not recruit with Bama or UGA or LSU so we have to go alternate routes to get talent. One is JUCO and its always a crap shoot
We've been recruiting top ten classes for years, JUCO or not. I agree that JUCO is sometimes a crap shoot but when we do go JUCO, it's historically worked out. Duke and Javon are the exception, not the rule.
We had a cancer on the team last year and im glad that Gus appears to be saying "not again". I've got no problem with that.
Time for the next man to step up.

I don't really buy this statement. We've shown that we can recruit on an even if not higher level than those programs save Bama.
We've pulled in plenty of top ranked recruits as well to avoid having to risk it with Juco guys.

Better to happen now than a week before Clemson game
Before people go to crazy. This is what we have left:
Kerryon Johnson: 5 star ESPN
Kamryn Pettway: 4 star ESPN
Malik Miller: 4 star ESPN
Kameron Martin: 4 star ESPN
2 Sophomores and 2 Freshman
Who knows, maybe a Nick Chubb (ESPN 4 star) will come out of one of these guys.

First off I would like to FUUUUUCK!!!! This was going to be his year & it just all look lined up for a big season. I loved watching him run & was excited to see him become the guy this season. Couldn't keep his shite together for one season
On the posi side it does look like Gus has learned from the Duke situation. Glad to see him growing as a head coach & not being afraid to cut guys loose if they aren't buying in. It is odd though he hadn't announced it to the team. From Marcus Davis & Austin Golson interviews sounded like they hadn't really known about it
There is no sugar coating it hurts. Last season we went in with 4 stud RBs and now we sit with 1. Granted Kerryon is supremely talented himself you just would like to have all those guys there and ready to go. It's insane how this time last season I was pumped up about idea of the 3 headed monster of JJ, Jovon & Duke....

If Gus thinks he can win enough to earn another season so be it. If not, it was a costly and stupid lesson.

A lot of our high ranking classes include big JUCO transfers. We dont recruit anywhere close to what Bama does or UGA. Maybe a year or so but not consistently. But I do think we get plenty of talent. We just seem to squander it for some reason.

Somebody on XM the other day was talking about Gus getting canned after the 4th game and I was laughing my arse off. Now I am thinking he will get the Bowden treatment.
So Gus is going to quit midseason??? Bowden was scum and got better than he deserved.

Gus has had a poor track record for signing and developing HS players at skill positions. That is why you see JUCO head cases like Jovon and Duke getting the boot.
These 2 statements are technically a non sequitur.

I agree and yes this loss is a bummer, but it isn't as bad as all the melting going on...
