“Doomsday scenario” = we still finish with a top 5 class.
Oh Poi, that's good news!
A backhanded way of promoting your Festivus tradition. Shameless.
FWIW, Dell paid an in home visit to DJ Williams, who I prefer over Noah Cain.
You can believe what you choose, but I can tell you right now you are not in the drivers seat with Neal or Wright. I understand many may know this but someone posted basically a Georgia death scenario and everyone acted as if it was impossible, when in reality UGA doesn't lead with 4 of the 7. UGA is picking up steam with Wright due to numbers at Bama. We will know more on Wright when on Dec 19 when Neal makes his announcement. If I am a UGA fan I would root for Neal going to Bama.
Webb to UGA is all I currently care about...
Neal is going to Bama he’s just taking his visits. A Miami insider that I trust confirmed that as well. So...these scenarios are playing out well for us.
In long, both schools will end up with a beast class. I think we pull #1 but even at #2 we pull higher player avg which is what matters most. The rest will play out on the field Dec. 7th, 2019.
What matters most to me is that we get the best guys we can to fill the major needs we have coming up. Those ratings don't do much for me.
Agreed, most of the time they’re going to work out that way. Highly rated players are targets for us at positions of need.
We need tackles-looking at two 5 star options. We need another LB-looking at a 5 star option. We need more WR looking at anticipated attrition-We have a 5 star committed, targeting the best 5 star in the class, and have a football player who’s a hybrid WR/TE high 4 star. We need RBs-another 5 star and solid players in mix. We need DBs-likely a five star and a underrated top 4 star. And for the cherry on top, let’s take best available who’s #1 OC in country. Most of time they’re one in the same.
@SoFL_Dawg I think I'm just as curious to see how accurate your info turns out to be on NSD as I am to see who the Dawgs end up signing.
Not questioning your info - and fully expect and understand if you miss on a couple. Just curious.
And I hope you are mostly right. Not just for the great Dawg class but also for your willingness to gather all this info.
I can tell you. I do not know where @SoFL_Dawg is getting his information but it is reliable.
@SoFL_Dawg do you think landing Wright would impact some of those stud OT’s in next years class?
I’m not so flo but I’m guessing both tackles are leaving early
You and me both brother. It’s a certainty it won’t be 100%. We’ve already seen the reporting by @JeffSentell on Norton. I got additional info on what went down on that too but what’s important is that he appears to be safe in the class.
I think at times when there’s a hot streak of current info, folks tend to think that people who post on boards, like myself, are speaking directly with sources like paid professionals. We all get our info from plugged in boosters, no one is talking directly to the source (recruit). Even paid professionals that speak directly to the source, hit on most, miss on some. We’ve seen that in recent months as well. Recruiting will never be 100%.
So I’ve learned to stay away from timelines unless I’m told “news dropping today” which even at times is off. See Macintosh as latest example of that when he announced the following day.
Bottom line my source is a booster, who’s plugged in, and has platinum status with UGA alumni assoc. That’s where my info comes from and excluding Pappoe, the info has been right. Info changes a lot, especially as on the field performances change (senior seasons & development of our players), but I trust it or I wouldn’t post it.
I've been on SEC college football message boards since '96 and was one of the first posters on the Original Free DawgVent. I've seen a lot of "insiders" come and go. You always have to take what they say with a grain of salt.
Mark Richt is no longer our coach mi amigo.
No becuase of depth charts. Keep in mind, only one of our targets is considered a true OT (Wright LT to be exact). All others are versatile pieces and can play inside and out.
Fast forwarding into end of 2019...if our team does what we know it will, it’ll start up front. A. Thomas (1st rounder), I. Wilson, Big Ben, Kindley all could leave. Both tackles and two inside guys. In addition, based on today’s evidence, B. Jones is imo, more ready to play. Mcclendon could easily be on inside. Truss looks like our future RT, following Wilson. Clay could be at either guard. Wright I think is LT but a developmental player. Who knows how quickly that materializes but Cade Mays ain’t gonna just disappear either. Still could see 1 or 2 transfers from this group not mentioned in this post as well. So in long, no, we need the depth.
Agree; no way we miss on all of these. Even with only one of the above we likely end up #6 or 7 at worst with a score around 284
I wish we were developing this much quality depth across our IDL. I still see this as a slight area of weakness.
