I hadn't heard about this. Is Morris' dad a super helicopter parent that adds his input into everything?



He's just heavily involved. Tried to take him to Cartersville but he didn't like the coach so they stayed at Carrollton.

I must have really pissed that guy off, because he is now following me to South Carolina threads.

How you doing, Mike? Are you excited for Gamecock football or meh?

He will be a 4 star by the end of the week if he commits to us over UGA

Doing well and fuuuuuck no hahahahaha but just happy football will be played.


Gunner will be a gamecock, kid grew up with Connor Shaw as an idol, bobos dad as his personal QB coach. Now Connors brother is his hs coach and Connor is on staff, along with Bobo. Kid will be a gamecock. UGA will be fine with BVG this year rough to bring in 2 top QBs in back to back years

I don’t think anyone gets fired this year, there’s no money for buyouts

Are yall saying UGA wouldn't want to take Vandagriff and Stockton in consecutive classes


No on the contrary they would love to, bit too QBs rarely commit in back to back classes...learn to take a compliment and tobread between the lines

Thsi is correct. We'd love to take a 5* QB every single year, but the transfer system that is in place right now hinders that. Great QBs just do no want to sit that long....and who can blame them really. Right now we have

Jamie Newman (transfer and would probably be a 4* now)
JT Daniel 5*
Dwan Mathis 4*
Carson Beck 4*
Stetson Bennet 2 or 3* (I don't remember)

Bennet I think is in his last year as is Newman, and with Vandagriff coming in I expect either mathis or Beck to transfer out and maybe both, depending on how things shake out in practices. It has just become the nature of the beast.

SCarolina is in a good spot with Hilinski and Stockton. Those are two really good players if you can lock them down. They also have a class in between them. One will be a sophomore this year and the other coming for next year. That is a really nice separation.

247sports does rerank for transfers.
Newman went from .8585 three star in HS to .9200 four star as a transfer.

JT Daniel's went from .9919 five star in HS to .9600 four star as a transfer.

What compliment jackass?

The statement I asked a question about was genuinely ambiguous and posted 2.5 weeks ago and you wanna show up outta now where to criticize me like you're some holy authority for this board.

High-rated QBs commit to the same in school in back to back classes all the time. How the frick do you think we got Joyner, Hilinksi, and Doty in 3 consecutive years?

Learn to think before you speak and you will do much better in life.

I promise im more respected on this board than you...and 2 none of those 3 were 5* QBs....and Joyner was an athlete that we all knew would be moved to wr or db where Clemson and bama recruited him....we got Doty cause dabo wanted him as a wr, where he is practicing for this year...and the jury is still out on Hilinski, who I love and believe he was tossed to the wolves before he was ready and played hurt. The dawgs want Gunner but know with 2 5*s ahead of him in JT Daniels AND BVG it's not likely. Take the stick out your arse and grow thicker skin or go back to your hole on TheBigSpur and reminisce about the good ole days on cockytalk. The compliment you failed to see was the Dawgs conceding defeat and saying we were gonna get a stud QB.

I promise the last thing I'm worried about is garnering respect from anyone on the internet.

Don't sell yourself short though... I certainly believe you are capable of accomplishing more in life than just feeling like you are more respected than I am on the SEC Recruiting board.

I didn't take Tissle's response as a comment but told them I appreciated the insight regardless. Not everyone has to think like you do Mike. It's ok. Just breathe.

How is any highly rated QB prospect for UGA not affected by their current QB room?

Thanks for the catch!

I have my doubts. We are hoping that with a good group of guys around him that he will shine. One article about him was saying that he had an extremely high completion % when throwing into tight windows/coverage.

I think most are just excited about having a more mobile QB, too. I don't know. I have my doubts, but I also have a whole lot of hope. I'm glad we also have Daniel, and we are hearing that Mathis is looking really good. We'll see.

I'm not sure I understand the question.

I will answer it with what I THINK you are asking.


I expect one and maybe two QBs to transfer. Newman leaves after this year along with Bennett, I think through graduation. That would leave Daniel, Beck and Mathis. Let's say Beck transfers. That leaves Vandagriff and Mathis or Vandagriff and beck if it is Mathis that leaves. If a highly rated QB came in he would probably redshirt, then sit for a year behind Vandagriff then take over for one or two years.

I don't think there is much of a chance of us getting another highly rated QB, though. We'll see.

A lot of UGA fans are a little skittish after the Fields thing.
