Next To Commit To The G 2020

sounds like they might be silents already
Dell didn’t miss on Sanders. Sanders thought Holyfield was coming back and that the depth chart was too deep to get touches early.
P.S. You’re probably getting most of your downvotes due to your condescending tone. So, let’s add it all up:
unpopular opinion + condescending tone + embellished story = down votes
He hath spoken.
I like Zy Walker or Theo to commit next. I wonder if anyone else shares that opinion? I also hope the Evans situation is, and can be salvaged. I am a big believer in second chances. Heck, I might not be alive without one or two. I also understand that Staff has to make decisions and consider rick in the calculus. And in a program like ours, fit may be as important as talent
As a matter of fact, my first take on the situation was that it was bad luck and said so. Bad luck as in turning away other guys to get the big fish and not losing the big fish but having it be taken out of the mix. Doubly bad luck since we missed on Sanders last year also due to unforseen stuff and missed on other guys.
I agreed with going after Evans with the assumption or at least hope, spurred by Jeff and others on here, that there would be good backup plans in place. Now hearing that the backup plan may be a good ways back is quite disappointing to me and I think worrisome to the program in terms of #s and talent level..at the same time QB and other positions are going to be majorly in flux. As I said..this is RBU.
Now that being said, I don't "blame" Georgia or Dell...I'm just saying that IMO a flip is in order. I'm sure they don't need me to tell them that BUT I'd hope the fans could at least see this is an issue and not give me crap for pointing it out or the old "Herrien 3 star" or act like all of a sudden Clayton is equal to Evans. Particularly when there's a whole thread devoted to whether or not we have the right QB committed and people would lose their crap if we suddenly went from Ringo to the 11th ranked CB.
So I guess I got preemptively annoyed at the people who would say it was no big deal and they didn't disappoint. And as I said, I can be an asshole so even though some can talk about the importance of having truly elite guys at every position, if I bring it up I'm entitled. I get it.
You're probably right..though I'm not sure if I could compete with you when it comes to a condescending tone. 😉
Ok. Good explanation
Zykeivous Walker reminds me of Quinnen Williams. They are about the same size, with great length and similar 247 rating. Haven’t seen any tape or testing numbers but he just looks the part and is highly regarded by those who watch him play. I like old school scouting better than all these rival camps anyway. Q Williams is a big comparison but like Z W ‘s upside.
Me: Come to forum, see 70 new comments on “next to commit” thread...think “ok, cool, maybe something finally popped!”
Wrong...good no nonsense heat check from So_Fl and 5 pages of opinions about it. smh
Is the bye week over yet? When will Kirby let the next one go public?
Anyone else mildly questioning Evans’ size? I know he’s listed at 200lbs on 247 and his photos on that site look the part, but he didn’t look that big on the game film against Katy. He looked like he’d get hurt in the SEC to me.
Any chance Dell traveled all that way to tell him to eat his wheaties? /s
j/k not really, halfway serious question.
Eh, you're right. Probably had something to do with my having cracked my phone screen while watching the Falcons game but regardless I could have stated my opinion in a more diplomatic manner. Cheers and I'm out.
Not posting just because the tide turned with his recruitment. Been wondering about that since they played Katy. I know we already have thunder and were looking for lightning, but lightning has to be able to hold up too, right?
So we take Clayton instead of Bigsby?
See what I did there 🤔😬
So you want a re do of Justin Fields or Brenton Cox?
Which two of Dexter, Burch, or Zy walker would y’all want? Assuming Stack stays in the class. Give me Burch and Walker, but I would BB stack if Dexter wants in
Lol, I thought I was the only one. He looks small
Guess that rollercoaster ride wasn’t worth the headache huh? 🐸☕️
Im really doubting a commitment until late Fall. Conference schedules heating up and only top recruits are left on the board. Those who we don’t mind waiting for.
But I also fully believe we are getting everybody we want from here on out. RB2 is the only thing in question
I want the Dawgs to lock down the best RB talent available but let's let the season play out. Some of our potential targets may be late bloomers, played behind someone better last year (i.e. not much film on them) or overlooked because they do not camp.
Look no further than three star Josh Jacobs who was 5-10, 200lbs coming out of Tulsa, OK and number 469 in the nation.

When it comes to evaluating talent, we (the fans) only see a fraction of what coaches see and what we see is a kid's best film cut and edited.
I trust that Dell will only take a commitments from guys who add something to our RB room.
I like the kid from Dalton more than Clayton...
Good one. I think it is as likely that Dell made the trip to tell Evans to eat his Wheaties as it is he told Evans UGA would pass on him. On a prime Friday night. In a Bye week. In Texas. Wheaties it is for me. Time will tell.
The only serious part about that was to see if anyone else thought Evans was a tad undersized. Not that Dell went out there to tell him to hit the weight room and eat dew grass. Lol.
