He was recruited but at safety, not WR.

I really didn't think he was high on your board, though.
You guys can pretty much get any DB you want.

Well, I hope he works out. Watching him play for a couple years now and while I don't see it, I know college coaches can get the very best out of players.

What don’t you see out of him?

Do you think worst case he can be a ST contributor?

I have way too much respect for this coaching staff to think they are worried about star averages. They know who they want and will try to get them. But if they have a kid higher on their board, that's much lower on 247 and Rivals, they're still gonna try for that kid, even it means finishing second to Bama. Same with Nick and really any coach worth his salt.

Now there is no doubt that some coaches are missing out on who they really want or need (Mullen, Pruitt). But I don't think any of them are going by the site recruiting rankings.

According to a Texas 247 mod, Tongue worked out for the UGA coaches this weekend and ran a hand timed (TIFWIW) 4.5 forty at 215 lbs. After that the UGA coaches pushed hard for him and got his commitment.
