How in the world is UGA fricking him? They didn't force him to sign an LOI

And he doesn't have to sit out, Bru McCoy got out of his LOI with USC and went to Texas. And even after that he transferred back to USC before the season and didn't have to sit out.
Pretty sure he sat out at USC this year. He never got a waiver to play at Texas his freshman year, by the way, so it's unclear if he would have been able to play.

This is why I don't buy it's really a grade issue. A Georgia poster said on here the real reason was the altercation with his coach before the Texas state championship and not grades. This makes more sense to me because once he's signed you just wait on grades to either work themselves out or not. But fighting with coaches, you might just want to move on and try to get the spot back with an appeal to the conference.
Pretty sure they got pissed off when he was still giving indications to other teams that he was open for business after he sent in his LOI. Having getting kicked off his team earlier in the year, missing the first half of the semis due to taking the ACT, getting suspended for the finals, and generally acting like a little shite for about a year probably gave him a short leash before that happened

As far as I know, Georgia keeps their spot if they mutually part ways, they only lose it if he didn't qualify.
Pretty sure they lose the spot (for a year) no matter what if the LOI was submitted

Alright I think I'm done following this recruitment. I'll just wait for the subject line. Tired of reading about him and frankly dont give a frick where he goes. Elite running backs aren't hard to beat so if he goes to A&m or Georgia yip if he comes to Baton Rouge great but holeechit this guys exhausting.

Pretty much what everyone already knows. I think 247 gets their info from Tigerdroppings.
Evans will not end up at UGA.
UGA will grant unconditional release. Who knows when.
Cant talk to anyone until UGA release.
If something were to happen with LSU it wouldn't be anytime soon and at the earliest, AFTER LSU hosts the 3 runningbacks on official visits.
Evans will be eligible to play next season with UGA unconditional release.
Mentioned aTm and LSU current RB situation.
Pretty much everything we all already know

if anyone is getting fricked in this whole ordeal, it's UGA if they lose that spot.
Not sure how you could blame them for trying to get him to stick.
Posted on 1/6/20 at 2:23 pm to Godzirra
And people pay for that? Damn.

I think it's pretty well known, they are NOT trying to get him to stick. Both parties are mutually parting ways. UGA is granting unconditional release.
My comment was to the effect of why hasn't it happened yet? The longer it take the more it hurts Evans... NOT UGA. He can't talk to people with a NLI out there floating around. Once UGA "officially" releases, Evan can talk to people. It is the dead period, so Evans would have to do the iniating of conversation, but it can't happen until UGA gets off their arse.
Starting to get the picture? So ya... it does seem like UGA is screwing him, either intentionally or unintentionally.
Also, many feel UGA will not be on the hook for a spot if they mutually part ways. So I don't think that has anything to do with it. Nobody knows why it is taking UGA so long, including recruiting pay sites.

Why couldn't Evans call anyone he wants?
Dead period means that coaches cant make calls unless they have a LOI

They absolutely were, per UGA 247. It sounds like now they're essentially giving up on that. They were using the only leverage they had. Leverage that Evans gave them.
Also, there are all kinds of ways for Evans camp to talk to other schools. He just can't do so personally.

From Mark passwaters (Rivals? A&M)
quote:
Got word Georgia is likely to release Zach Evans from his LOI (maybe not the exact wording, but you get the idea) -- they never filed it. The people I have talked to now expect him to end up at Texas A&M, probably shortly.
To clarify the previous Zach Evans tweet -- he won't be on campus soon, he could be COMMITTED soon. Big difference, of course.

I guess Evans could "illegally" talk to anyone that will listen. But the rules are, once a kid signs NLI, recruiting is OVER and is not supposed to be contacted by anyone but the school he signed with.
Correct on your dead period comment. And because Evans signed NLI (LOI), people can't call him except UGA coaches. If he's looking around, he's not supposed to be talking to anyone because of the NOI. And even if there wasn't a NOI, he would have to initiate the calling.

Maybe initially, but that stopped many days ago. Long enough ago that Evans should not have to be waiting still. If they are going to release... release.

It hasn't been many days.
I promise you UGA is only doing what they have to do to protect their best interest. They aren't out to frick over 18 year olds for no reason.
