Great class but this close is familiar.

I disagree. With most of this class committed early, I'm impressed that we we were able to hold on to pretty much all of them.

Yeah, Kirby really needs to work on his closing skills.

He is being sarcastic. he, and most of the rest of us are thrilled with the class. The only way we could have done things differently to "close better" would be to have several guys silently commit and then commit on signing day. I would rather have them locked up and ready to go before signing day. Kirby did a lights out job on recruiting.

We definitely should call him up and tell him to just postpone it for a little bit and come visit Athens.

My only issue now is not letting Carter EE. Other than that, amazing class that should lead to a natty

Some rapid fire closing questions:

Anybody know what Jamyest Williams deal with USCe is? Very odd given the state of their program.

Skinny on Big Cat Bryant? UGA leads, blown away by LSU, signs with AU. Another odd deal.

And in hindsight should we have stuck with T Carter?

No excuse for an in-state 5* like Solomon to be headed to Michigan over UGA.

But...he may wind up transferring after he experiences a winter up there.

AS was your typical "they treat me like family not a pawn" recruit.



Hell of a player but Momma had ultimate say

what do you mean? He's been committed there and likes them and will be the star of their class.

went on a recruiting trip before NSD with his coach (not parents) and now allegedly that coach has a job offer at AU. Also anytime garner is involved close to NSD all logic goes out the window.

I don't see why really. Not looking at the scholly argument, we still have chubb/michel getting the heavy workload this year. In '18 we have Swift/Holyfield/Herrien and potentially the #1 national RB in zamir white that likes us.

TC is a good dude and good player but chubb and sony returning basically made us pick 1 RB this class and swift is better.

There has been talk that Bryant's hs coach is going to Auburn as an "analyst". Not sure if true though.

Agreed, but isn't there a very pro Mich coach down that way?


Think Lee Co's soccer coach was s Michigan fan. His head coach is a Florida/NY yankee transplant who played DII ball in the Midwest; so, who knows where his loyalty lies, if with anyone.

I liked carter, a lot. I hated the way that went down, but understood why/how it happened. It was one of those things. Not good, but unavoidable. Nobody thought Michel and Chubb would be back. I didn't think either one of them would be back, much less both.

At RB massive depth is needed. I know we're stacked there, but shite I remember Brendan Douglas Starting for us due to injuries. I'm very disappointed we turned a top ten RB away when we closed like this. It was a great class no doubt, but nsd was more of the sane

Great to hear. We basically have no shot, I don't think he's ever visited and never even heard his name mentioned, doesn't he like UF a lot? At any rate, I still LOVE the fact that we got on the horn immeidatley and talked to him.

With that said, if AU is in play rest assured they're going to do their thing.
