I personally think the Evans info is based off of an old rivals prediction. I do think we get Murphy and Burch. Tank is not a USC lock, now we may get him but bringing his family here and then taking them to auburn tells me he is trying to pick between the two. I just hope Tank knows auburn will have a new coaching staff in 2020.

Anybody heard anything about issues with Lloyd? Georgia fans and boards are saying he may flip bc of some kind of personal issue with the staff? I haven't heard a thing about this from any of our ppl but the rumors seem to be growing legs mainly bc of the chatter among Dawg fans.

Haven’t seen or heard anything like that.

Very strange timing that a personal issue would arise only a couple weeks after committing and a couple days after saying that he just felt the most comfortable at SC.

UGA very much wanted Lloyd, and there is no doubt they believe they can flip him if we end up having a shite sandwich of a season this year. Any rumors you’re hearing could be the result of someone spreading BS just to create drama and shake up his feelings.

Apparently it leads back to none other than Dell McGee so I believe there's a lot of truth in what you're saying about it basically being propaganda.

Also, now there's supposedly some video out there of one of our assistants at a wedding threatening to "choke the life out of" someone. Person who mentioned it says he saw it but refuses to go into further detail or name the assistant. Supposedly occured over the weekend and says it will probably end up with him being fired if it gets out to the media. Take it for what its worth. I'm just taking what was said at face value which is with a lot of uncertainty. Until I see it, I'm not sure I believe it. And if what he says is true about the impact it could have, I don't think I want to see it bc that would mean the media has gotten ahold of it.

Only thing I seen or heard over the weekend was JC shite posting with some twitter troll. He swallowed the hook.

Yeah I saw that. One of our more retarded fans that is known to shite post about CFM did her usual schtick and he took the bait hook, line and sinker. His account was deleted last night.

Here was the final straw:

JC tends to blow his own horn quite a bit but his sidekick Keith Allsip is just as bad or worse. Worse actually. I listened ... those two spend half their time telling everyone "I told you so," in a very vague convenient sort of way.

Not that I disagree with his sentiment in this case at all but word is his friendship with Bobby Bentley is about to blow up under the suspicion that Bentley is feeding him inside information which mUSChamp does not tolerate from anyone.

Bottom line is that they got too big for their britches and and they both talk too much about how great they are.

So much potential, so much possibility and yet they've let it go to their heads and now no telling where it is going to end up.

JC was right to be pissed off at that Twitter troll bitch though. Social media is a fricked up hot mess.

ETA: At a breakfast one morning we were sitting around talking and one of the guys, a long time Gamecock fan who listened to the podcast, remarked that he had to quit listening because it made him nauseous because JC was always smacking and snorting and sucking snot while talking. A couple of the guys laughed and agreed. So Inwent back and listened and damn, now I wish I hadn't. It's kinda gross. But if you take out Allsip's obnoxiousness and JC's bad manners ... sometimes they actually have decent discussions and put out some good information. The snot sucking and smacking and snot sucking is kinda gross though. One of them smokes during the show too and one of them is constantly sipping something and one of them evidently has a cat or something. It's hard to listen-to with all the grossness goings-on at times but it's funny at the same time.

Keith does always know days ahead of time when we are about to land a recruit. Damn I'd hate to be Coach Bentley if that turns out to be true and where the info is being fed to him from. Coach Muschamp will tear his arse up.

I've never listened and I'm not sure I want to with the description you just gave of the sounds. I listen to shite like that all night long at work. At least I get paid to do it there. Damn if I'm doing it on my own time if I don't absolutely have to.

I'm hearing JC did a big mea culpa this morning on the tweeting .... good for him.

Said he had been watching too much CNN and that he is not homophobic or racist ... but hell, if he watches CNN I dunno.

Anyways, was told he's been called to Columbia this afternoon. No telling what that's all about.

I hope it turns out okay. He's not a bad guy from what I understand. Pats his own back a little too much maybe but not nearly as obnoxious as the Allsip guy. Who is he on the boards, cockfather or something like that? Who is Mr Blond I keep seeing and hearing referenced when it comes to recruiting news? Which site is he on?

Looks like Bama is now a major player with Jordan Burch.

Side note, saw on twitter that Reggie Grimes was no longer a take for Bama and that he is either S.C. or UT bound.

Yep ... but we still look really good with Burch.

Murphy will announce next month on his birthday.

We are looking good for Tank and Tonka and Grimes.

Still a long ways to go.

Burch and Murphy are both our on the same week, 8th and 13th of July.

We lost significant ground with Tank though, as Auburn is selling him on being the primary back and focal point of the offense. But he is still 50/50 between us. Either way even if he commits to auburn, if Gus gets fired in Oct. he could always come back.

Weve actually lost a little ground with Tonka but think we will be fine there.

Grimes apparently isnt a take for Alabama and Clemson, so it looks like we will get him. Its either us or Tenn imo, and he set his commitment date at Nov. 2.

What are your thoughts on tonka? I've noticed his recent measurable were lacking and I assume that is why he has dropped in the rankings.

I read somewhere, maybe here, and M Scott took Tonka’s spot bc he already had the size/strength to play DT where as Tonka is too small for DT, and too slow for DE.

I've seen that we might have been laying off of him. I think after mid July (when hopefully we have Murphy and Burch at that point) they will reevaluate.

His measureables were worse, but hes a multi sport athlete, and a high honor roll student. Basically hes very busy, so he wont be deciding for a while apparently. I could see us fill up and drop him, but on the flip side hes got a ton of immeasurables that you would love to have on your team.

put an astericks next to him for the time being. For now I would say we still take him.

Excellent. How huge will that be.

I've been told one parent likes us and the other Auburn, I forget the order and don't want to get it wrong. Attended my first Wednesday morning breakfast this morning in awhile. There were a lot of people at the Football Ops building. Kind of strange not seeing the kids going in and out of WB anymore. There were a few support staff but no players. But anyways, was told Tank is still favoring us bigly and that Brown and BMac feel good about him. Those two are our Aces but also Tank has made some good friends with some of our current players and commits. There is a WR in Georgia that is helping to recruit Tank to Auburn, forget his name but Cooper or Capers maybe? We want the WR too.

We're actually after a couple of WRs in GA and NC that have become a priority but, and this is a big but, but if we get short on schollies we could be done at WR in favor of another DB who they have their eyes on.

Think we still take Tonka if he doesn't wait too long to commit. Grimes is also getting overtures from some other programs since Bama dropped out of the equation so no telling where that is headed. Mac Brown is one of those, Gus too. Whether he visits or not is another matter. He's supposed to be coming back here in July.

Was told we're looking really good with Feaster but that is too fluid to know for sure from one day to the next. He's just concentrating on graduating.

If everything sticks with current commits as is ... we only have eight more schollies to give. So that says 22, plus one for Feaster and one for Muse and one for the DS. Also heard Jaycee Horn will be wearing the coveted #1 this season. Also heard there will be some shuffling of one or two of the weight room assistants .... not sure what that is all about except that one may be leaving and he'll be replaced with someone well known if all goes as planned.

This is almost set in stone. If it doesnt happen, then something tragic has happened.

Ze'Vian Capers - 4 star WR, real good, but doubt we get him.

Jahquez Robinson - 4 star CB Alabama commit. Apparently Bama is up to 20 recruits and now are doin the whole "Catch and Release" Method. Which IMO is shitty as hell, but hes a 6'2 195 lb CB, and we would love to get him.

From my buddy, hes ours, and has already been studying our playbook. He liked VT alot too, but is ours unless something crazy happens. Gonna announce right after he graduates summer classes which should be in the next couple of weeks. will be back for Camp start date (July 30)

With Feaster and Muse, and 8 spots left, My predictions are

Burch
Tonka
Murphy
Whitehead
McDougle
Robinson
Tank
Conley

Less likely but still possible

Grimes, Evans, Tisdol, Powers, Shaw, Bell
