I mean, you aren't going to accept what he says because he says Hankton isn't the best in the world? Why ask?
How about...."He s the bestest in the world and you should definitely take him!"
That's somehow valid even if it isn't what is generally thought?
I'll put it to you this way.
*******This was deleted becaue it was heresay and did not need to be put out on a public forum. My apologies******
Are his feelings wrong? no. Should he have been more diplomatic or waited until we have the recruit on campus to approach him? Yes.
Crap. You guys come on here and ask a valid question and when given a valid response you want to troll or claim we are somehow acting like a spurned lover?
Here is my response to you.
If you don't want the answer, don't ask the question.

Once again, what is the problem with him? He just helped you when your first national championship in like 1 million years. What did he do so horribly bad?
Orgeron did the same for LSU yet you were ready for him to go. Not every coach is great because they are on a staff. If he wants to go to LSU that's fine. I have no problem with a coach going to a perceived better job.
You think it is just us?
Hankton has caught the ire of many fans over the years for Georgia's perceived lack of development at wide receiver and has even caught flak for recruiting. Dawgs Daily

Fwiw, there has been speculation about replacing him as far back as early last season. Rumors of relationship issues between him and players. With that said, others have defended him and he contributed to this ship, so I'm happy to have had him and glad that he gets the opportunity to get a pay raise and head back to LA/home. To echo meansonny, he has consistently had freshman receivers showing up in a big way. We've had trouble getting them to sustain and take the next step, so just something to keep an eye on to see if that was unique problems or a continued trend.

To be fair, the hobnail boot poster didn't really give any valid responses and behaved very much like a spurned lover.

Please take him

Very little to be happy about in the room that he coaches.
But I’m sure he will get all the drug dealing WRs from Nola to sign with the quickness.

Bwahahaha. There is no mad at all in natty land. Cortez Hankton sucks.

I don't follow Georgia much but it does seem like your receivers have suffered a lot of injuries over the past few years.
quote:Agreed here. That has more to do with game planning etc. That said, he was the passing game coordinator as well as WR coach.
The passing game has been lackluster at time but you didn't get a real OC until 2020 and he had no offseason that year.
quote:True.
Quarterbacks have also been meh for the most part.
The problem has been some his recruiting, and the room seems unhappy. It is rumored we could lose 5-6 receivers to the portal this year, and that was rumored before LSU's interest. True? I honestly don't know. We'll see.

This is true, but others did give valid responses and still got the same response from LSU posters. You can't zero in on one poster.

Man you sound bitter about it.
Just trying to understand the LSU narrative here. So you hired your 8th top choice as a HC. None of his assistants left with him. You've subsequently hired Brian Polian, Mike Denbrock, Joe Sloan, Jamar Cain, Robert Steeples, Matt House, Kerry Cooks, Brad Davis, Frank Wilson, and now possibly Cortez Hankton. And lost Corey Raymond. Pretty sure there's no bitterness, just trying to understand how this is a good situation or why it deserves a thread or 100? The entire thing is laughable. So I'm laughing.

I obviously responded to the wrong poster and my response made no sense. Even for me. So I deleted.

I don't understand how you know who our entire staff is yet don't realize that Polian was one of Brian Kelly's assistants.

No one said it was a "good situation."
Just a question about a coach from one SEC fanbase to another.
Kind of the point of the message board, friend.
Try to get your panties out of a wad.

Hire him and find out. He might be perfect for LSU and do a great job. He has connections in Louisiana no doubt.
I think the poster that said, he isn't on the same level as some of the other coaches nailed it. That doesn't mean he is bad. We are all in all pretty happy with the majority of our coaches, but we all know how that is. Have a blip and all of a sudden you go from hero to zero.
I will say this. There has been reports of unrest in the WR room for awhile and we are expecting to lose 4-5 to the portal. This has been going on before the LSU news hit. For me that is concerning. I have heard he muffed at least one recruitment of a high profile receiver.
Other than that....who knows.

He’s not a great recruiter and the vast majority of the receivers don’t respect him. Monken has basically been the de facto WR coach the past couple of years with Hankton focusing more on off the field community service projects and contributing to general game planning
ETA: Lot of down voting and pissy comments from LSU fans in this thread. Just because it’s not what you want to hear, don’t go shooting the messengers. Y’all asked.

I don’t know his specific area of recruiting, but your WR room seems plenty talented enough. 6 4 stars or better since 2019. And 3 stars (McConkey/Mitchell) who were productive as freshmen. For a team that plays a ton of 11/12 personnel, that’s plenty of WR talent.
Blaylock, Pickens, Jacksaint all suffered major knee injuries. (Maybe more) I don’t see how that’s Hankton’s fault.

Some UGA fans criticize him for missing the big targets. His 3* hits were huge for UGA this year though. AD Mitchell and Ladd in particular.

Not so much what we have, so much as what we missed on and how we missed on them....reportedly missed on them.
I'm sure LSU has had coaches that brought in talent that was good, but because of who y'all missed would not have been sorry to see that coach go. Especially when you consider how you missed on them. By them saying dumb things at the wrong time, etc. Making issues out of non-issues.
Hey. Y'all asked. Again. If you are going to argue with what you are being told, why bother asking?
