Started to just leave this in the recruiting thread but decided to start a new one... Move it if you want DGD...
Imma tell ya, the AJC has gotten better with Seth Emerson & Jeff Sentell coming on board... It's almost like they like us now with the solid articles coming outta the ATL now. hell, even Carvell has toned his BS down a bit...
Kinda waiting on the other shoe to drop with them tho...
Very good article on the Hockman recruitment...

Very good article on the Hockman recruitment...
quote:
“Every box was checked when it came to Georgia,” said Hockman, who’s also Bailey’s father. “But I think the relationships he had built with Georgia was number one. Coach Richt and coach (Brian) Schottenheimer spent a great deal of time with him through the process. Brian was just a guy that Bailey felt real comfortable with right away.”
quote:
“Coach Richt sat there with Bailey in the quarterback meetings coaching Bailey by himself while Coach Schottenheimer was running the meeting,” Kyle Hockman said. “He actually spent 45 minutes during Georgia’s spring practice coaching Bailey during that meeting. That kind of stuff doesn’t happen. That kind of stuff didn’t happen for us anywhere else. The day Coach Richt did that had a huge role in him committing to Georgia.”
quote:
New offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer was also key. Hockman was the first player the first-year coordinator offered at Georgia. Hockman’s father also appreciated how he would “be real” with his future pupil. He didn’t want to hear just how great he was and the pitch all the time. Hockman asked Schottenheimer to “give me five things” Bailey needed to work on right now and be blunt. It was all about getting better.
Schottenheimer obliged.
“That’s the cool thing,” Kyle Hockman said. “That’s why Georgia was different.”

Still don't trust em...not sure if they have a new sports editor or not.
The first time any player gets ANY type of citation this summer it'll make 1st page headlines in huge font.

Naw, that's a good piece. We need an Eason/Hockman board for all of the football porn

Sentell wrote two very good articles. The first, based on an interview with Tony Eason, described the long process that led to Jacob Eason's decision to commit to Georgia. The second was the Hockman article you referred to. There has been a definite improvement in reporting on UGA.

I don't even bother trying because most is behind a paywall.
