I have not hired a UGA Engineer yet. Have not had one come across my desk to be honest. I have hired Bama grads, but from the business school. Hired more Auburn Engineers and Construction MGT. Most of them are solid. Have a number of UGA grads with biz and other random degrees. Some of my best guys are honesty ones with random degrees who had good experience and people skills along with a great work ethic. My Tech guys are good Engineers tho. Just need to keep their contact with Owners to a min..




We seem to get a lot of Tech Grads at Norfolk Southern. Most are nice guys but they don’t know jack crap about railroading and the majority of them are really awkward to deal with.

He was on 247. 247's Class of 2014 Final Rankings


247 was way over ranking him for sure. His ovr was 174 ranked which was much more accurate. Crazy that rivals, espn and others were more correct on him. Let's you know even though 247 is more trusted sometimes they are flat out wrong.

Fair enough. Keep us updated if anybody picks a recruit to UGA that you trust. Otherwise the derisive laughter will be assumed.

Floyd, did that running back from your home town get a college offer? He was small but damn he could run.

No offense, but Georgia has had one #1 ranked recruiting class this decade.

Alabama has had seven.

This stuff isn't new to us.

JD King?

He was at OSU but he's transferring for playing time.

James Graham is at Tech but he's 3rd on the depth chart at QB.

I think he got injured and wasn't offered D1 because of his size. I don't keep up too much with our football down here although Navarre is becoming a power house and my wife teaches at Navarre so we are friends and stuff with a lot of families who play ball at both schools but we don't go to any games. I keep tabs on Fitzgerald up in Georgia more so and Ocilla where my wife went to school. Ocilla just lost to Clinch in the State final and Fitzgerald got knocked out in the final 4.

Offense taken, please go away or just comment on GA recruiting. Otherwise, take it to the generic recruiting board or to the gump board. This is the GA board’s GA recruiting thread. IDGF about Bama or your recruiting class.

Bama always feels the need to infer superiority over us and recruiting is just another built in advantage they have held forever. Losing it to us last year and us taking them deep in the title game really turned them on us. Just read their recruiting thread. The couple pages is them fixated on the fact that Kirby is recruiting the same players they are recruiting. Are they really shocked we want good players? Bama recruits good players - well no fricking shite we are as well and that's going to create head to head battles. 10 years ago Mark Richt wasn't in the game with them so they are tilted about the entire Georgia rise.

Solution/Problem... Pick one.

I realize that Long Dawg was douching up the UA crootin thread before (not sure if anyone else was) but he lost his posting privileges accordingly.

I like ya but you're getting pulled into a pissing contest in the wrong place...

Let's try this one more time...

quote:

With that said... why in the ever living frick are we having this discussion in the recruiting thread... before someone gets their feels hurt because RUFTR has now responded to the asinine comment, just let it go...

Lastly, Riseup... I recognize that the post you responded to was a little dumb, but do remember you're on the UGA board... it's a privilege and not a right. If I went disagreeing with every dumbass post I've seen on the Alabama board about UGA and Kirby Smart, I'd be catching hell from Bama posters and/or lose my access. Also, it would just about be a fulltime job some days.

TideSaint... The same applies to you bud. I'd expect the same on your board if I started getting drawn into nonsense.


For the rest of the board here... Instead of bitching about what has been said... Let. It. fricking. Drop... Starting here. If you continue to bitch about it you are instead douching up the thread yourself at this point.





Let's drop this general line of discussion and get back to the Crootin' please.
