    It's amazing how often recruiting services get it right; however, there is no way to measure heart, desire, and motivation. There will always be three stars like Eric on the positive end of the spectrum and five stars like Deangelo Gibbs on the other. I wish Gibbs much success at TN, but there was obviously a disconnect between talent and heart at UGA.
