Hikinski signs financial aid paperwork with South Carolina
https://247sports.com/college/south-carolina/Article/South-Carolina-football-Ryan-Hilinski-inks-financial-aid-agreement-124732502/
Yellen is key target as he was just on OV. Several others getting offers. I don’t know who’s committable or not.
Anyone know what the "sandstorm" is to which he referred?
The techno song and towel waving.
And must be related to the term 'sandlapper' for SCar folks, although it really only refers to certain parts of coastal SC.

Sorry, sorry, sorry that’s what I get for typing a message at 1:55 am, when I’m half asleep. I typed Hilinski because I just had finished talking with someone about him signing the financial aid papers. I apologize, I’d vote me down as well. I totally meant to agree with the Yellen comment and that everything I’m hearing is that he’s coming to Georgia. Yellen is who I was referring to in regards to the great visits and the rest of my comments, I just put down the wrong quarterback name. I apologize.
I prefer the Isley brothers and Shout. Same jumping up and down, not nearly as good a song. IMHO of course.
Jeff,
I just read your article about the number of early enrollees. I understand there are scholarship limitation for the number of EEs. Just wondering, could a commit enroll early and pay for a semester or use other scholarship then receive his football scholarship in the summer?
Interesting. I can't think of a reason why he couldn't do that, which means there is likely an NCAA rule against it.
Now that McIntyre is gone, could Georgia get involved with.... ?

Hey guys-I received a couple of PMs regarding the info around LT Darnell Wright and a potential OV in Dec. and I thought it’ll be good for entire board.
To start, staff will not take Trevor Keegan and Darnell Wright. There’s belief that Webb has a spot (as best player available) and one additional OT spot. This gives Pittman 1 inside guy in Webb, 2 versatile (inside/outside) guys in Mcclendon and Keegan, and one outside guy in Truss. At this time I wouldn’t put much stock in Wright, yet.
First, Wright has been rumored to get to campus all year and hasn’t made it. He’s even been in several mock classes, despite his lack of attendance. If he doesn’t schedule an OV I don’t believe there’s anything to see here. Secondly, Wright was frankly underwhelming at the opening this year and there have been whispers that he’s a multi year developmental player who’s not ready for SEC play. Wright does have really quick feet but his technique leaves a lot to be desired which was demonstrated during one on ones at the opening. Also keep in mind we have a commitment from 5 star LT Broderick Jones in 20’. He likely is our future starting LT in 21.
Outside of recruiting rankings, I’m not hearing much positivity around this move at this time. There’s speculation as Keegan’s ranking has fallen and his interest in Michigan has increased, that Wright is the better answer. I haven’t heard anything to confirm that so we’ll have to let this play out.
I still believe that Keegan is in this class as the final OT and that Wright goes to the creamsicles. If I hear anything new, I’ll share with the board.
Whomever the PittBoss likes the most is who I hope we get.
I'm hearing that Keegan's drop in rankings are more due to competition and needed movement to get people interested in recruiting rankings. I've also heard, don't worry about rankings with this kid, because he is a Cade Mays clone and we all know how that worked out
@SoFL_Dawg you the man, thanks for sharing as always
Wright will need two years to acclimatize to major college football. His ranking is largely on potential & measurables at this point. In addition to not showing up at UGA, he’s also not been on campus at Tennessee for several of his unofficial visits.
I think at this point we don’t need to take a developmental player on to OL. Those slots will be needed elsewhere. I also like versatility a la Cade Mays who can play multiple positions on the line
Agreed, I do think Keegan will be the final offensive lineman in the class.
I agree we still have truss coming in from Rhode Island so I'm guessing that's a project as well. Not to mention owen conded
Truss will need some time to develop physically and transition to the college game
If Truss needs time to develop too, why would you prefer him over Wright?
