Some of y'all really need to work on setting rational expectations.
Note: Not saying I'd be disappointed with this class...
however, OL is/was the biggest position of need IMO. Missing on Price and not finding a suitable alternative at OT would be a pretty big misstep. I get it, short runway here for him not coming on board until late, but if that's the case, I expect we get on some big uglies for the Oline for 2017 fricking pronto.

UGA could have been physically moved to the center of the earth and Cleveland would have still commited to us

When you fire your staff, you pretty much throw the idea of filling all your needs ideally right out the window.
If you had told me in October that we would fire Richt and still get the guys we have, I'd have told you that you were batshit insane.

I fail to give a frick that he missed on some higher guys since he's only had the job for a few weeks
Woah, woah, woah pump the breaks...I'm not saying the sky is falling, shite. I think my expectations are fairly realistic, we've had a staff in place for maybe a month tops? They've been all over the dam place. Overall the class is great, added multiple guys today, very happy with the work done, don't think Kirby and staff could have done much more.
I just worry about the numbers on the OL. And I'm not one of the guys saying "we always miss on OL" and "we NEED X number of guys committed to play OL every year."
Again, I'm very happy with the class (it's a top 10 class where the staff has been here all of a monthish, hard to be upset about that), and understand Kirby and staff may want plenty of room to recruit their guys for 2017, I was just stating a little concern over one particular group.

Yup...but that won't stop some NegaDawgs from freaking out

This is a great class regardless of what happens from this point on. We kept Jacob Eason for shits sake.

1:30. Time for Clark. Anybody got a heads up?

Seriously.
The core of this class, Eason, Nauta, Hardman, Cleveland, Rochester is amazing.

Don't forget about Robertson either.. It's starting to look like he'll be a Dawg after his visit with his mom.

Said in an interview last week that he knew there were some surprises for the Dawgs. I think he's one.

This is my rationale. A lot of the argument for retaining Richt was to keep the class (Eason) together. We've done that, so I'm happy.

Think we will keep the class small and save spots for next year or do you think Kirby will start reaching out to backups?
Posted on 2/3/16 at 12:48 pm to Cobb Dawg
Let's all just have some faith that we land one or more of Derrick Brown, EJ Price, Demetris Robinson, and Mack Wilson. So many of these recruits were saying we were in for a surprise and we should be excited about NSD. I'm trusting these guys and saying we land one or more of the guys listed above.

He was calling all the coaches last night to inform them of his decision today.

Best of luck to DB. We still have a hell of a class and if/ when we close with Marshall, Price, and Roberyson it will be even better.

Thomas Brown just said on georgiadogs that we have "more to come."
Hopefully he means "more" than just Clark and Laguins
