I thought they deserved their own thread. I keep hearing about offers to these kids from SEC schools...and then there is Michigan.

I went down to watch a game last year to see Shea play. That team is loaded but that DE they have is a beast! He stood out as a JR.

If NCAA had any nuts at all, clearly a for profit school school with undue influence on young children should be shut down. 75K a year and only about 5% get scholarships, what a scam.

Most private schools have about 1/3 free ride kids and 2/3 straight cash homey kids

I understand that, but my point is the company who owns the school also owns the company who monetizes collegiate sports. I don't see the NCAA stepping in to stop them any time soon.

The NCAA will step in once they realize/have proof that the high school is nothing more than a means to get a contract with their agency when they go pro

I really hope we land Tre McKitty. Just to say we have a McKitty on our roster for a few years.

Would love to flip Pryor from TOSU, with the new staff any chance Isaiah might give UGA another look?

After seeing the list...I can't tell you how much I want to see a school go after Tre McKitty. That is a great name.

Tre McKitty

Over/Under on the number of times he's been the subject of a pussy joke (even if just joking from a teammate)? 437?
