Chris Hinton Flipping??

Just got wind that the staff isn’t worried about recent misses bc they are going after bigger fish. One of the names to keep an eye on is Chris Hinton. Staff is pushing hard and feels good about a dual commitment from him and his brother. (Possible Sentell commitment video in the works?!?). Also remember that Hinton is good friends with other three guys committed already (Blalock, Goede, and Bertrand). It’s a full court press with staff and current commits. I believe it has started with Pittman recruiting his younger brother in class of 2020 who is a five star OT. Wouldn’t be surprised bc Pittman and McGhee have been maning this recruiting ship since they have been here. Let’s just sit back and watch this unfold! Go Dawgs!!

Man I hope so, that would be a massive haul
Hope your source is accurate. As a recruit/parent, I’d be VERY concerned with Captain Khakis job security.
Good article on Jamil Burroughs. I think the staff is going to give us a big time recruit they had up their sleave so that it takes the pressure off of CTS.
They see that it looks bad even though several said “I tried to commit and they wouldn’t accept it.”
That would be a super twofer indeed. As to academics, I know there are exceptions but in the main, UGA can give an undergraduate experience comparable to Mich. For many years, graduate and professional programs are where the real distinctions are prominent. And, again, there are exceptions and I am speaking of good schools as the starting point.
Work that mojo, Kirby! Go Dawgs!.
Hinton is not from Georgia originally so there is no sense of "staying home." He also was very interested in playing out of state. That being said, I hope you're right and we can flip him!!
As someone who went to Michigan and UGA, I can tell you that UGA has a MUCH better student/undergraduate experience than Michigan does. The campus is nicer, the people are friendlier and there's more to do (food is way better too). However, Michigan is academically much better, and it's not really comparable. Michigan is regularly tied for the top rated public university (academically) in the nation along with Cal-Berkeley & Virginia. I had to really bust it in the classroom just stay above water at Michigan.
The Hinton family values academic prestige so if Chris were to flip, I’d imagine Stanford would be his destination. Then again, it’s recruiting and crazy things happen all the time. Harry Miller did choose Ohio State after all.
Would be huge. Would fill two big holes at positions of need.
Jeff Sentel mentioned during his Wednesday night recruiting vid that Hinton is one to watch and that the staff has really been on him hard. If I heard correctly he named Hinton the most likely flip candidate for Georgia.
Hinton is going to the iceland of Michigan unless harbaugh leaves after having another season of not winning any important games and going to the outback bowl to play South Carolina
That's an interesting connection between three current commits and Chris Hinton. The family connection to Greg Mattison, d-line coach at Michigan is strong. But the rumored refusals by Ga. coaches of several d-line targets combined with the "dual commitment" angle of Chris Hinton and his brother offers new insight into his recruitment. Sounds promising.
The gals in Athens are better looking.
It’s definitely on Facebook, not sure about Twitter.
That would be crazy. Would love for that to happen. He’s been actively recruiting for Michigan himself on Twitter. That’s the only thing That’s throwing me off about this.
Not holding my breathe, but this would be beyond amazing. Two for one with elite players
