EJ Price mastered his troll game early on..


All rumors and indications are that he wasn't trolling. There seemed to be a last minute admissions issue where someone put their foot down on admitting him. If you look at him during his commitment ceremony, he does not look happy. At all. He wanted to come to Georgia but someone kept that from happening.

I've heard it as a UGA official wouldn't allow it to go through and then I've heard it as EJ's legal guardian wouldn't sign off on him coming here.

This kid has had nothing but drama and oddities following him throughout this whole process so I'm really not too surprised

Thanks for the replies. Been a long time since I've posted here. I'd like to look at both sides of this issue.

As far as 17's numbers, the cap for incoming in 17 is 25 plus 4 or 5, so 27 to 30 is plausible.

Right now, it looks like the problem is the cap of 85. We are a very, very young team. We have 10 seniors on scholarship and Grayson, 11 guys who will leave the program for sure after 16.

Not too many rising juniors who may leave early, either. Maybe Chubb and/or Michel, sure, but who else?

And with less than 80 scholarship players in 16 going into spring practice and fall camp, a high level of attrition would be a double edged sword.

If we have a lot of attrition, our 17 recruiting class may have 23 to 25 spots open instead of 14 or 15, but our 16 roster may have only 70 to 75 scholarship athletes instead of the 82 to 85 likely on the teams we play.

On the plus side of things, if we lose 11 seniors, a couple go pro early, and we have 5 spots open in 16, AND we lose 3 to 5 to transfers, medical issues, etc., all 20 incoming 16 guys will play their first year here, and we'll have room for 20 to 25 in the 17 class.

Regardless of which way things go, as much as I loved CMR, something tells me CKS will be much better at roster management (and clock management at the end of the half and game) than CMR was.

You counted 14 seniors maybe because it looks like we will have 4 to 6 non-scholarship senors.

How can we call it over if DRob hasn't signed yet. Is he not part of the 16 class?

Let's wait and see if D Rob visits. If he does, we can hoist it back up but I'm gonna be damned before we put this thing back up there just to get let down again

I could be wrong, but I am thinking Michel might stick around. Maybe, anyway. Just a feeling. You know.....one of those feelings that was telling me Derrick Brown was going to sign with us?

Some people get upset at the mention of money being passed around

Not our fault if they're in denial about guys like Rodney Garner and Pat Dye. And both have their ties to our program as well.

Oh I agree. I just thought it was funny that we have other people all up in our recruiting thread.
