OK
Imo if he's in this class it's a win no matter what. Because a month ago I know I thought the ship was long gone between the staff and Evans. We could add a future 1st rounder on TOP of Milton.
But on the flip side; if he gets here and becomes a distraction in ANY way KS will sever ties. I believe the rewards by far outweigh the risks. I don't know the kid. Most of the bad stuff said regarding him could could just be whining bcuz he doesn't want to wear burnt orange. CKS will get him right.
Yeah. We aren’t in a position of desperation here. Only downside is he may occupy a scholarship spot someone else could have had, in the event things don’t work out. What won’t happen is CKS keeping a me-first individual on the team because we need a 4th 5-star RB.
Thanks guys, I appreciate you all taking the time to explain things to me. Merry Christmas DawgNation
My last word on Evans until Jan 2nd - YOU HAVE TO BE A GOOD STUDENT WHO DOESN'T GET INTO TROUBLE IN THE CLASSROOM TO GRADUATE EARLY!
Merry Christmas all.
I don't go off on "soap boxes" often but I'm going to here to defend this kid. ( Disclaimer: I don't know anything about him other than what's posted here.) I grew up very close to where he is. It's not "slums" but it is a very,very rough area. I know, first hand, that it's hard growing up there. You learn, very early in life, how to survive and it's not by taking **** off people. I'm sorry if that offends people but it's the truth. He graduated early from high school which means 1) he's an intelligent kid and 2) he's not any kind of "****" because it's hard to do that and requires hard work and sacrifice. It appears that all this "drama" and "problems" have been centered around one specific person. Let's give this young man the benefit of the doubt. I, for one, believe he'll be a true baller for the Dawgs. And all these "character" concerns will, maybe, be assets and not liabilities.
Soooooo.... next to commit Darnell Washington
That my friend is up to ESPN. They schedule the commitment announcements so 50/50 Evans/Washington. I will cry if it is Ringo!
Good thing he’s coming to Georgia where no one is gonna take ur phone. Ur gonna be gifted in every way possible to succeed. I think it was plumlees family that had the delayed flight and a Georgia assistant found them a hotel and got their new flight worked out. And if the kid really is any hassle then Zamir Milton cook McIntosh can step up. Either the kid will rise to the challenge or he won’t and that’s how Kirby likes it.
I understand and appreciate your point. Do you think the coaching staff talks to players about not posting slang talk, and how it makes them look uneducated when they do? I don’t know this for a fact, but I’m pretty sure we don’t have guys on the team currently posting stuff that makes them look like they read on a 4th grade level. If we do have players currently on the roster posting stuff like this, then people should shame them to stop, - if that’s what it takes to get them to stop. It is a bad look for the school and the program. As a graduate of The University of Georgia, I place a higher priority on the academic reputation of the school over success on the gridiron.
I think it was Tommy Bush and his family who were delayed at the airport. As has been stated here many times, no other program will out work Kirby and staff when it comes to recruiting. They will go the extra mile for every single recruit. That goes for once they are in house too. I have no doubts that Evans will have every chance to succeed here. Part of that will be up to him though.
Good Lord. Y’all are judging a kid over social media talk. Here’s an idea: just because a someone uses slang on social media or when communicating with others of their peer group doesn’t mean they don’t have the ability to speak or write properly.
It’s an 18 yo’s instagram. He’s not trying to reach out to 30 year old white dudes when he posts something so he’s talking like kids talk. I’ve seen interviews with the kid before and thought he was actually pretty well spoken for an athlete.
Get off my lawn!!!
Merry Christmas to everyone! All-star games will bring great news!
I don’t care what anybody says,it’s been a heat seven days to be recruiting future Dawgs!
