Does Fromm's 5th star do anything for the overall class grade?

We will have to see after all the recruiting sites update their final rankings this week.

I presume we will finish higher then where we are at now, as most of our recruits are moving up and had good camps

What time does the signing day show start on ESPN, I'm on second shift now and haven't decided if I'm taking a vacation day that day or not

Rivals reported Jake Fromm is now a five star.

TOS has talked about a possible flip that is committed elsewhere and everyone would be happy about. He stated that UGA staff went in home with him twice in December before the dead period. Any idea who this could be?

At least it's not Bama. He can go to Michigan not win the BIG 10 and then be left when Harbaugh leaves for the Chicago Bears after next season. He will also have to live in garbage weather. Rusty said it's his family pushing him in that direction. I think he wants to play with the UGA kids from the AAA game.

I've given up following him, IMO. He just likes the game and knows he's the last "big fish" available.


I still think it's a giant troll and UGA gets him FWIW.

Why would his family push him all the way to Michigan? That's a terrible choice

Some kids were never going to UGA. Solomon appears to be one of those kids. It seems we have a 5 star stud every year hell bent on leaving the state.

If it were just Solomon saying Michigan leads, I'd believe there's something else afoot.

Seeing Rusty put in the CB is a bit disheartening though. He's not one to just go with whatever someone told him that day; usually puts a lot of thought into it. That Kipp joined in makes me more nervous

If it's a troll job, then it's one of the greatest ever. Getting the beat writers to CB him to another school? That's some epic 4D chess.

I really don't think anybody knows 100% where he's going. I've seen rumors that he's told 3 staffs he'll pick their school, or that he is trolling one particular school, or he doesn't even know where he's going so he just says whatever to get a reaction. This is one of those situations that its best to block out all the noise until the day of or day before his announcement.

Probably offered someone in their family a job, like they've done with recruits coaches in the past, Peppers and Gary.

Ironic considering he told Michigan and it's fans to go f*ck themselves on camera.

Agree. If Solomon does become a traitor to his state, let it be in Michigan. Let him deal with lousy weather, a jock sniffing HC, an under-performing Big 10 team.

Not Alabama.

If he is not coming to Athens, hope he gives CKS a silent heads up, so we can double down on the 350 pound OG\NT (Slayton?).

This year and next year are not good years for interior DLs in Georgia, and the Southeast region in general.

Face it: we have to hold onto Wyatt, and bring it at least one more interior DL in this year's class.

We have four more slots if we hold on to all of our commits and they qualify.

One more DT, got to have him.

One more DB, a big one.

One more WR, Collins or Jaymest (JoyStick2).

One more OLB. Big Cat.

If any of these four slots come up with 0, and he is willing, bring on Warner at ILB.

I've read that Slayton may not have the grades for UGA or anywhere else. That may be completely untrue. Hopefully we're recruiting him heavily if it's not true.

As for others, I think Warner would be the LB if we can get him. Bryant would be an DE.

Fwiw, I am not sold on Warner at LB. He looks like a project that can develop with his hand in the dirt. Too many arm tackles for a 3-4 linebacker. But he is a heck of an athlete. Bulk him up, keep the speed, and have him muck it up with slower OL.

Or go a different direction and not take up the scholly.
