    @sethemerson @JeffSentell Looking ahead and I realize way too early to project but I have a question. To have early enrollees we need seniors to graduate in December or transfers out to occur at the end of the Fall semester. With regard to the Seniors I am assuming that even though they have graduated and hence not signed up for the Spring semester which starts January 4th that they would be allowed to play in the National Championship game January 8th (i.e. after the start of spring). Is this correct and is there special dispensation that allows an early enroll to say take Chubb's scholarship Jan 4th even though he is still "in school" and on the team? I assume that as he is only getting benefits other than tuition that is okay but not sure.

    Just to give some insight here. They would be allowed to play in the game even if they graduate. Now to the scholarship part. A player who graduates in December can opt to use the scholarship in the spring on graduate classes. Many guys do this because why not allow the school pay for some grad classes. Now I know that's not ideal for recruiting but this can happen. My friend who played at auburn last year graduated in the fall and used the scholarship on graduate school in the spring. Scholarship last until the summer like June 1st before they hit the next "cycle" or "year". Depending on what term you want to use there.

    I understand that but many who graduate, Chubb, Michel, Carter etc tend to leave and go to various camps for NFL combine training etc.

    As I said in the original post (if you read the entire thing) I THINK it's okay but want to ask the experts to verify my thinking that Chubb for instance is no longer enrolled in UGA but can get Food, Lodging, Travel etc and represent the university in the game without being classified as being on "scholarship" and counting as part of the 85. If you are a rules expert then TY. I don't think that this issue effects Bama as the school doesn't begin the spring semester until after the NCG is played.

    "Build it they will Come" It may or may not be soon, but the longer we wait the more commiting together rapid fire in a shorter window.

    Does that apply to early enrollees? Does their scholarship not run Jan-Dec? Can they stay on scholarship for more than 5 years without it being an impermissible benefit (other than getting an additional year of eligibility).

    I'm pretty sure that a school can keep anyone on scholarship (like as an undergrad assistant) as long as they like, if their eligibility is up and it wouldn't count against their 85. As long as they have no eligibility left, they aren't on the (official roster) and don't count. I think.

    Also, UGA just offered Matthew Hill. To me that means 1 of the Juniors is leaving or that Webb's move to DB may be more than a short-term thing.

    I am betting that a bunch commit together or on the same day after this past visit they shared. Wouldn't be surprised if they talked about it and concocted some grand reveal.....or is that just wishful thinking??

    I've long been a believer that they're planning something big together. A lot of @JeffSentell interviews seem to indicate that they all know what they're doing, where they're going, and who they'll be playing with. When they say that they're planning something big, I'm imagining one mass commit - hopefully in one big video highlighting them all. That's certainly never been done before (that I know of) and definitely counts as special. I feel like one day we'll wake up, go to work, and at the end of a single day, Georgia will have jumped to the top of the 2018 class.

    Upside to this is also that if they commit together, they'd be less likely to de-commit. They're already in it together as a team.

    That would be awesome! I don't know how feasible that is with everyone wanting their own publicity, but it would be awesome!

    Interesting if the bolded is true. Wouldn't be surprised if Stanley & Chigbu see the writing on the wall with all the superior younger talent on the roster and in the pipeline

    100% sure that Matthew Hill is not going to flip from Auburn to Georgia. Won't make any sense at all with the talent from the 2018 and 2019 class inbound. I believe that Webb's move to DB is short term. Prob just a temp thing till Parrish comes back (?).

    They may think that Godwin may leave early or Crumpton is unhappy. We have no way to know. It would surprise me if it were a Sophomore or Freshman.

    Matthew Hill is likely being offered as a DB/S. He's better there than at WR in my opinion.
