Freshman year when he should have been a Senior in highschool. He was a reclassify. He's still very young


He was held back in school and was 18 years old prior to arriving at USC.

He was the same age as any other True Freshman (sans Calvin Ridley who was like 20).

The kid who put up 30 TDs beat him out. NO frickING WAY.


Thank you for agreeing with me that his former 5* ranking has little to do with him as he enters his 3rd year of college. I knew you were reasonable

Recruiting rankings mean very little when he’s been in college for 2 years and was beaten out by the #700 prospect in the 2019 class


He had a better true freshman season than Jacob Eason and Matt Stafford, and then tore his acl. It’s a bit too soon to disregard his talent level, but it was predictable you would try to do so.

Yep. People used to always say that his freshman year and it made me laugh. Maybe he was slightly behind in development because he only had 3 years of HS football, but it’s not like he was a child.

Daniels would've been a great pickup for the Vols bc JG is inconsistent as hell and no one is convinced he'll ever take the next step but Sand isn't wrong about the timing. Bailey is our future QB. He will be starting next season barring injury/odd events. We don't need a transfer who can start next season but one that could start right now would be a huge boon.

TBH, IDK why Daniels would be interested in UGA with the Wake Forrest dude already there but he will definitely add to UGA's QB room if he lands there.

Where are you exactly?

You had to take these transfers because you don't believe in the talent you have recruited.

Yet there is still a 5* HS QB committed to Georgia.

Acting like UGA is the only major program getting in on the transfer game is asinine.

One of those 4*s had brain surgery and will not be playing a snap of football in the SEC.

Obviously, you could be right, but this came out recently:
Georgia quarterback D’Wan Mathis fully cleared for game action after MRI

However, even if he does not play, you were saying that it would affect recruiting, and it clearly has not.

quote:

The other completed less than 50% of his passes in HS and has already been recruited over before having a single practice in Athens.

Kind of makes you wonder why he was rated a 4*. Are the recruiting gurus nuts? They must be. Or you could be wrong.

quote:

Kirby was desperate for a QB to play in 2021 instead of throwing a True Freshman into the fire, and he got one. Good for him.
And just got a 5* transfer to go along with him and a 5* commit. And, again....all of this came from your saying our recruiting would be impacted.

Harrison Bailey isn’t the prospect VN makes him out to be.

Let's not get carried away now. He's not to the level of Fields or Lawrence but he can drop some dimes and will win 9-10 games at UT if he can stay healthy.

A 5* that flipped from OU to be the heir apparent to the 1 and done Newman that will now be taking his visits and likely recommitting from UGA because Kirby misrepresented his status for UGA. Daniels sits a year and gets a medical shirt for last year and has 2 to play 2 at UGA.

Oh really?

quote:

“There is always gonna be competition at a place like UGA," Vandagriff said. "That’s why people come to play here. Go Dawgs!"


quote:

Greg Vandagriff, Brock's father, provided some strong commentary of his own on the news. "We are all good," his father said. "Life is about competition and proving yourself over and over. The only time you don’t have to prove yourself again is when you retire! If you want to win a National Championship or any championship you have to beat out someone to get onto the field. It’s the nature of the beast and competition is something you had better embrace or go play where everyone plays 2.43 quarters and we will all celebrate the participation trophy!""
