With Georgia over flowing with talent every year and not being able to keep every player instate -- I know a lot of outside schools have been able to come in and get some high profile guys out of there with some success.

That being said, which if any 2016 recruit from the state of Georgia has been making some noise in fall camp for your team?

For Tennessee it's hands down Nigel Warrior. He's competing for a starting safety spot with Soph. Micah Abernathy and the only true freshman on the defensive side of the ball that is looking at getting any serious playing time.

Are you bragging about nabbing a legacy out of Georgia?

Bad form mate. Bad form.

Stick to crowing about Abernathy.

You don't brag about getting legacies.

A big swing and a miss on your part Abernathy was also class of 2015.

Everyone in the South not named Florida, Texas and Louisiana recruits Georgia just about as hard as they recruit their home state. The top 20 players in the state of Georgia are as good as any in the country and several schools not named Georgia have came in and made good relationships in state and got some big time players. I'm curious to see how those players are doing at their respective schools.

Edit: Auburn, Tennessee, Florida, Missouri and Ole Miss all took a 4* Top 25 player out of GA and I know some will be counted on to be big time players for their teams.

Look, if you want to brag about a freshman showing out in practice, just go to the main board and do it. Don't pretend you care about recruits from Georgia on other teams as a thin disguise to cover your fangasm about one of your own players. Bad form.

My response was serious. We have a bunch of freshmen from GA in contention for significant playing time.

Elijah Holyfield, Brian Herrien, Mecole Hardman, Isaac Nauta, Charlie Woerner, Julian Rochester, Michail Carter, Tyler Clark, David Marshall, Chauncey Manac, Jaleel Laguins, and Tyrique McGhee could all help us. Not all of them will obviously, but they're in position to make a move into the 2 deep.

I'm some what surprised to hear you guys will have so many competing for depth in your 2 deep. You guys have recruited well enough over the last several years that I figured all but the exceptional guys would be catching a red shirt. Any freshman standing out amongst those mentioned?

Holyfield probably is getting the most publicity.

Georgia has like 3 seniors that are major contributors. 2013 class was a total failure. That leaves a lot of holes. The roster situation that Smart inherited was vastly overrated, for this season at least. Should be loaded in 2017.

Makes sensense on Holyfield. I can't remember the last time UGA had an incoming back who wasn't extremely talented.

I hadn't realized the 2013 class had had so many issues for you guys.

For UF, Clayton has had good reports. He will get a lot of time in obvious passing situations year 1.

That's tough. Reminds me of Kiffins class at UT which ultimately set us back even farther.

Yeah, Mitchell has more hype than any WR I can remember at Oregon. Ugo Amadi is really delivering too. I thought he'd get lost in the shuffle but he might actually start. Kid came in at 195 and is really put together well for someone his size.

You've been reduced to troll threads on the RB. My how the mighty have fallen.

Over Half the country recruits Georgia's upper echelon players. I'm just trying to find out how the programs who grabbed some of the top talent in GA are performing in their first fall camp in College.

Writing a few sentences on Nigel Warrior when he isn't even the highest recruit we've taken from Georgia in recent classes is considered trolling?

Get some thicker skin
