I posted this earlier, important side-note is that Kelee also retweeted Van Pran's tweet
@WCDawg Thanks but...
Apologies for missing/not crediting . - hard to unroll some of these threads on the cell phone vs regular computer.
Very encouraging...
Speaking of Kelee - he just posted this which includes another 4 pics of him with/that include Evans. In recruitmentspeak - he’s proving to be relentless in press coverage 😜
To be clear jimbo and crew aren’t saying that, those are words straight from a tamu supporter. I guess that’s the optics of the situation on their end.
Just wanted to add the little sidenote! No need to apologize
@PanicSpringTour02
Yes I think UGA could easily motivate Lloyd and Tank. Tank pushing his recruitment back is seen as a success from those schools because if he decided today, most felt it would be UGA. Another name here is Chaney. Same situation as us wanting Burch to delay his decision into the season.
Gus will likely be fired, along with his offensive staff. Maybe Cadillac is retained. Muschamp will likely be on the hot seat but wouldn’t expect 19 to be his last season. Tank is making a wise decision waiting to see how the cookies crumble.
Not intending to be dismissive but the second RB is of little concern from my vantage point. We expect to land the #1 target and best fit for our system and the depth of that room will be one of the best in the country with or without the services of Evans, Tank, Chaney, or Lloyd. By end of week 3, we’ll be singing the praises of Kenny McIntosh too.
I think McIntosh is going to be a wrecking ball. He's a big dude and his main PT will likely be in 2nd half against a tired defense too.
I kind of figured this. Even if they (Jimbo and Co.) were saying that, you know Kirby and Dell just flip on tape of Chubb and Michel in 2017. They know how to use multiple backs.
You expect McIntosh to be able to contribute that early? Has he looked good so far?
Like the looks of this
He’s the truth. He was not a consolation prize.
Great size, speed, work ethic, confidence.
Simple 3-tier prediction for days to come.....
Can see that happening if all those IFs come to play.
I don’t subscribe to conspiracy theories which allege that ranking services are out to either help or hurt anyone in particular but just reviewing the new 247 rankings (not composite) and it was pretty interesting.
We either have the commitment or are in the listed top two for 12 of their top 100 players. HOWEVER, of those twelve, 8 (66.7%) just got dropped by an average of 8.125 spots, two stayed the same (Sherman and Ratledge) but the remaining two (Smith and Tank) jumped up by an astounding average of 57 spots each.
By sheer quantity of players, it looks like our class just got s.crewed but it about evens out if we get just one of the two climbers.
This is anecdotal but it’s funny timing that on the day Milton is set to announce his decision, he’s suddenly one of the big droppers, losing 21 spots and his fifth star by 247.

Sometimes it's easy to get caught up in the sunshine and rainbows... Just asking for a dose of realism here.
The word coming out of south Florida guys was that he is absolutely a beast size wise, and has great work ethic, BUT speed (at least straight line speed) has never been something he was lauded for (40 time not the only indication here). Has there been some big growth in that area, or are we thinking of speed here more as in quickness/shiftiness? I'm excited about the kid based on things that have come out about his pass catching skills in addition to just being a load to bring down, but if he's developed significantly on the speed portion of the equation, that would definitely be something noteworthy.
Assuming things go well for the good guys tonight with one Kendall Milton tonight, we will have another charismatic, vocal guy out there.
BTW, let's show the kid some love tonight, even if hopefully it won't be much of a surprise. Great player. I think I have probably been hoping we'd sign him for the longest out of any of the RBs this cycle. Great player and him and his family should be a great addition to the Dawg family.
It's not so much conspiracy - as in they collectively intend to help/hurt a specific school (though ask Rusty some time in person about Scampini and his impacts on rankings for UGA prospects... it does happen - edit... that was originally a typo but I think I prefer it this way. 😂). BUT... we'd be naive to think that it's actually in the best interests of any of the big ratings services that sell subscriptions to have a locked up #1 class and locked up top 10, 25, 50 players... there will always be an element of "unknown destinations and placement in the rankings sell subscriptions". That's not benefitting a school or hurting a school, so much as it's beneficial to their business...
I usually hate when player's parents are vocal during their kid's commitment, but Kendall's father has been an absolute treat and I hope it stays that way whether he's a dawg or not
We did net lose points on the latest recruiting rankings but they didn't just release them to spoil Miltons commitment they've been out for a few days
Elijah Holyfield ran a 4.9
Im nearly as fast as him. I wouldn’t worry about straight line speed.
