This discussion started with a poster lamenting that “5 star” highschool recruits sometimes don’t win the starting jobs at their positions. There has long been a narrative that Georgia won’t get 5 star recruits in the future if it doesn’t start 5 star recruits, even when a non-5 star player has earned the starting role. I think this is nonsense. I don’t believe 5 star recruits view themselves as some sort of brotherhood that will only go to teams that start 5 star recruits. I doubt they view their recruiting ranking as some sort of immutable identity. Great players want to play on great teams, compete for starting positions, win championships, and receive the training and experience necessary to make it to the NFL. Just my opinion.
I understand that, but without those 5 star QBs, what 5 star lineman wants to protect a 3 star QB, What 5 star receiver wants to catch from a walk-on, etc.? It's little things like that is what I meant. Kirby has us recruiting great, building strong teams. But offense, no matter who the coordinator is, still is lackluster. As evident in the SECCG, we tried to keep up by throwing the ball, got horribly embarrassed. Saban keyed in on the run game with his subpar defense, and made us 1 dimensional and it was over before knew it. I'm sure this will get down voted like my other comment, but I'm just stating facts.
