Bro..don't defend yourself. You were nice...you did nothing wrong.

Don still mad about Nkemdiche...that's all. He's invited Dabo, Conn, and George Teague over to his house
to watch the 1993 Championship game vs Miami tonight. He will be fine tomorrow.

With those 32 players, would you consider this class a success at bringing in talent and quality depth or a failure for letting top prospects leave the state and decommit?
If and when Georgia signs 32 players, the Big Ten+ will shite a brick and complain about the SEC oversigning.

(Or maybe not, they only want to stir up shite if Bama signs more than 25. )

let's say we keep all 19 of our current commits while Foster and Jones stick with Bama, Henry chooses to become a H-back at Bama, RN sticks with Clemson, Dye ends up going JUCO, and Trenton Brown goes to UF. BUT we add Tunsil, Adams, North, Kamara, Kimbrough, Langley, Mauger, Seymour, Griffin, McNeil/H. Henry, Jordan Davis, Riles, and your pick of another 3 or 4 star lineman (don't think we land Crowder).

IMO....I think this will be a success for Dawgs recruiting-- especially if you add Tunsil, Admas, and Kamara. Missing out on highly-rank players from the state is a big blow....but not a failure. For me, the key is to have consistent Top 10 recruiting year in/ year out...and I think Georgia has done that the past few years....

Top-notch recruiting is very important...but ultimately...it is a means to an end...
We all know what the end is...and I think UGA is part of it this year.

What position is everyone recruiting Shaq Wiggins for? I just saw some highlights of him at the Rivals Challenge, and he literally couldn't cover anyone. He also looked very small compared to everyone else.

I feel like this quote matches another team/coach from last year but can't put my finger on it ...

Absolutely. This class will be great even without Foster. If we signed him it would be the best we've ever had. It'll be a top 5 class IMO.

I hope it's a Top 5 class when you're signing 32 or 33 guys

You're signing 32/33 kids. If it's not top 5, your entire coaching staff should be fired.

I mean we'll have numbers but there will be some SERIOUS talent in this class. I'm not an expert on recruiting rankings but if we signed 33 3* would that be a top 5 class? I wouldn't think it would...

Depends on the recruiting service.

Certain sites rank on stars alone while others factor in if a team addressed needs; for example, if your team is thin at OL but deep at WR and you sign 7 4* and 4* WR's, then those WR's won't help your class ranking all that much.

So far, we've done a decent job at addressing team needs. We've assembled a very deep class at DB which is HUGE for us but we need to at least 2 more OL (hopefully more like 3 or 4) and a couple more DL before this class is wrapped up.

An OL unit comprised of Tunsil, Theus, Kublanow, Cardiello, Seymour, Dantzler, Andrews, Beard, and Long will be a very solid building block for the next couple of years. OL recruiting has been one glaring area of weakness in Richt's tenure. Hopefully that turned around with this year's class.

I think it's for DB but i'm not well versed at the specifics of our recruiting strategy.

I watched the whole 7 on 7 and Shaq only had one bad play that went for a td. Compared to multiple passes defended. He is being recruited as a cb. Our team had a top 5 defenses, so I trust Grantham and the d coaches in evaluating talent.

- Our class will be great with or without Foster

- Yeah, Don sucks but it's fine. It's best to ignore him.

- VanBasten LOVES emoticons.

- And Shaq will be a CB. He has some of the quickest feet I've seen in drills and definitely makes up for his size. He held his own for sure at the Rivals 5* challenge so I'm not sure what highlights you saw.

I agree with Crispy, we've done a great job of laying the foundation ( getting solid players at a position of need). Now we're getting to the point where we gotta get the frickin' icing for our cake.

Gotta finish strong with the 4* & 5*'s we're in the running for...

John Atkins test scores came in and he did not qualify

ETA: Will probably go to a prep school and try to enroll in January but that might also be unlikely.
