Gunner should be Tier 1. Dude has grit and emotional intelligence. Game manager yes, but nobody from Georgia says… ahh man.. it’s almost kickoff.. what bonehead stupid arse play will he make today. He’s consistent for sure

I’d take Byrum Brown and Faizon over Leavitt, Manning, or Curtis at the moment
Curtis outplayed Brown last Sat. Have you watched him? He may have the best pocket presence outside of Trinidad. Still just green though. He’s the real deal

No disagreement about your assessment of him. Plus he actually has explicitly won us a game putting the team on his back (TN ‘25).

That said he’s a slow passer, underthrows receivers, throws contested balls, doesn’t have the best pocket presence, has a tough time reading past his 2nd target, tends to stare down receivers, doesn’t audible well at the line, and generally doesn’t have the upside ceiling that Trinidad, Keelon, and Kamario have.

Is he a perfect fit for Kirby and UGA? Yes. Does he execute Bobo’s offense better than anyone else on the list could? Yes.
Would you pick him first on your sandlot team / would he command a higher NIL package than the guys above him? No.

I love Gunner, but I’m also astute enough to see what I see and call it fair vs. the other talented (and seemingly equally well-grounded) young men in tier I

Can you make a negative tier for Mateer for us?


$3mil per year. Wasted.

Faizon OTOH just couldn’t get anything going vs. Texas, but I thought he weathered the pressure well. Can he actually execute to lead the offense against a more attackable D? Will go a long says towards defining his ceiling.


Pretty fair assessment.

If Sellers is not in the last tier, then I'm really not understanding your criteria.

As I led with, just a best assessment, I’ve no conviction of those I’ve not watched.

Would you rather have KJ Jackson, Kenny Minchey, or Marcel Reed running plays for SC? Interested if so, based on what factors you see in them.

Sellers historically was capable of leading and playing with confidence. Mateer is similar but he’s just totally lost it. Has Sellers lost it also?

I do not disagree with this list. May put Kamario over Keelon.

4. Gunner


He played 1 good defense this year and had a 56% completion percentage. Come on now.

7. Leavitt


This kid had not 1, not 2, but 3 interceptions against LT in the first half of their game.

Who would you put ahead of him and why? Philo’s not been asked to do anything, and he hasn’t played a D as good as Stockton did vs. OU. Stockton has a much deeper body of work proving his ability to lead and win. I also wouldn’t read too much into one quarter of football when up 28-0, then 31-6, as UGA explored some other formations and play calls to get in some deep ball reps (despite the WR coverage being good). He was 9/9 with a TD by mid-2Q (9/11 at halftime)

I’d support flipping Manning and Leavitt. Manning’s at least won some games. All the LSU fans have come in late and downvoted me anyway for even putting him in tier III
