There is no “consequences” or points loss for predicting a flip so these “experts” can do it to generate clicks.
makes sense. just trying to stir up the pot a little bit I see.
I agree. His interviews contradict what I’ve heard last 45 days or so. I asked about him today and staff is still confident that he signs on ESD.
Maybe Woodbey is trying to lure him with the number (Which if JR goes to the draft is available at UGA). But anyways I would love him on UGA on ESD. He is a different style than the mostly hard hitters UGA has. He'd actually be a true fire Free Safety and play some coverage better than whats on roster and that is in no way a disrespect to the beast safeties UGA has
Recruiting update...
Starting with the OL here. As most are aware we’ve been on Clay Webb (#1 OC) & Trevor Keegan (#16 OT) for a while. Recently, a new development has been some chatter on legit chances with Darnell Wright (#2 OT) & Evan Neal (#4 OT). As far as ranking these guys, I’m hearing staff has them as Webb, Neal, Wright, and Keegan in that order. Staff is expecting both A. Thomas & Isaiah Wilson to declare for NFL next year leaving a significant need. Should all want in, it’s possible that 3 spots could be allocated to OL in final class, specifically watch Webb, Neal, and Wright here. 5 total spots here. Early playing time opportunity has enticed Neal and Pittman has pursued Wright. Both will be on campus for OV. Keegan is still in mix heavily, we’ll have to see what happens.
DBs-No change which is good news. Still hearing Stevenson, Elam, and Cross here. Staff remains in communication with Jordan Battle who’s giving UGA a long look as well. Safety position will be Cross/Battle or bust (opens up door for 3 OL). What’s notable here is that Kirby has become more involved with Stevenson. Strong indicator that preparation for losing CMT is underway.
LB-Lets start with Dean. UGA staff feels they will land Dean. Those close to Bama staff feel the same way. Hearing mixed emotions are coming from Dean camp on this one. Dean loves UGA. Momma Dean wants Dean to sign with UGA. Depth chart at Bama is more attractive with who they’re expecting to lose. Papa Dean is pro Bama. The Deans are a great family but Nakobe does live with his mother in MS while Papa resides in FL. Hopefully this is the slight advantage. Both are jockeying to get Dean back to campus just before signing day. This is a two horse race despite other schools being thrown out there. The game Sat matters but I wouldn’t put too much stock into the winner of this game lands Dean, as the determining factor, despite what some of you may have read on other site. The Deans are weighing their options. Heart vs. head on this one.
Trez-UT closed hard but I’m told staff has picked up attention activity on Trez. As of today, considering he’s the most volatile current commit, still leaning to his commitment sticking.
WR-Haselwood-not good here as of today. There isn’t much Haselwood needs to see regarding the school. @JeffSentell article mirrors what I heard in that presentation on usage will be important. We could lose 4 WRs so Haselwood is becoming more important. Full transparency, I was told that staff’s thought is that Miami will land Haselwood.
DL-no update here but offers are going out. Stay tuned.
I would love to know what Haselwood sees at Miami that would be better than what we have to offer. Oklahoma would make sense to me, but Miami makes none. I'm so ready for ESD this cycle...been way too much up and down drama. Thanks for the info @SoFL_Dawg
Miami is my preferred landing spot for Jadon if not UGA. We won’t run into him and he can be the number one priority for 3 seasons and go pro.
@SoFL_Dawg thanks for your continued intel. I hate the update on Jadon. I believe him to be of serious need, but he certainly isn't acting like he wants to be here and is finding any reason to shy away from the Dawgs. Reminds me of DRob's recruitment. That being said, I am hearing is that Dean recently said he is being recruited harder by Bama, and my source believes he is expected to land there. Jadon, according to this same source, feels good that he is a Dawg. I guess we will all see..... grabs popcorn
We must get Webb by the way. Really hope this comes to be.
That would be interesting on both fronts. Hard for me to imagine Dean being recruited harder by another staff but I guess it’s possible. Staff is all in on Dean.
Has George Pickens reaffirmed his commitment with auburn?
I don’t believe he sticks with the barn. Lots of questions on eligibility though.
@SoFL_Dawg thank you for the intel. One question I have is if we truly take 3 of those 4, then could guys in the class now get cut off like warren McClendon?
It is not expected but certainly possible. I was told 5 spots.
I agree... nobody out works Kirby Smart on the recruiting trail. My absolute must get in this class is Nakobe Dean. We need ILB help - big time.
Haselwood being sold on NFL aspirations. Miami has history of recievers and Mark Richt is pretty much responsible for all UGA Recievers in NFL (minus Wimms and soon to be Ridley). Then the scenery in Miami is enticing as well. The last visit and discussions with Coley, Chaney, and Hankton will matter
