What kind of "wow" play would you expect from a defensive tackle?

And it's not so much that we're sensitive, it's just that your initial comment was:
1)asinine
2)reeks of butthurt because he didn't pick your school


Oh c'mon man. There is nothing "butthurt" about my post. I was just making a statement about his play. I rag AU recruits just the same when they don't play up to their ranking.

Well from what I watched he played pretty well. He missed a couple of tackles which happens. He was also double teamed 100% of the game and still made a significant impact. Had a handful of tackles for loss and showed how athletic he is. What would you have needed to see for him play like a 5*?

I just wanted to see him blow a few plays up, cause some havoc. It's probably got a lot to do with the heat. Didn't mean to bust balls over it, wasn't trying to flame.

Let's be honest here. If Trent was AU commit, you would have not made that comment.

Honestly, yes I would have. But then again, I'm not an all out homer. Give me time, and let me see some games AU recruits play in, and you'll see I'm pretty fair in my pessimism.

Yeah, I didn't think I was being unreasonable. A 5* ranking means immediate impact for a program. If he is struggling with high school o-line double teams, he'll need a year of S&C/technique work.

You're basing this off of one game? You guys are incredible short sided and went in to the game looking for something wrong with him. He played very well but because this game didn't look like a 2.5 hr Hudl reel, he's not a 5*.

Got it...

Bagman would say this even if he was an AU commit.

I watched, it wasn't his best game. I have seen him play like a 6* more than once. He will be a difference maker on the DL. I wanted the Dawg fans to know that I am not a Troll. Every site has him the #1 DT. That isn't an accident. He isn't surrounded by other talented kids. If he were, they would have made plays because TT had 3 OL on him most plays. Trent is the REAL DEAL!

Can't wait to see what Rodney does with him.

Rodney going to be coaching for a Professional football team in 4 years. Cause that is the only way you will get to see what Rodney can do with him.

What a dumb assertion. There's no way we let Rodney come back to UGA.

Just an observation; but if you are trying this hard to quantify it, that is a pretty good indication that you are exactly what you are trying to disprove.

I see you guys are still missing the forest because of all the pesky trees. I was defending your commitment and his play yesterday. He isn't surrounded by talent. Lighten up Francis, or you guys are gonna stroke out once the wheels start wobbling.

At what point are you going to stop saying this? You've said it for 3 months now and nothing has come of it? When can we expect some of your "prophesies" to come true?
