If there was a physical altercation it’s the coaches fault? Without even knowing the details? Impressive
Wait, are we really moving on from Ringo? Or is this fake news? I haven't seen this posted anywhere
No. He was trying to make a point and used it as an example. He did use the /s.
Big fan of this post. Found it very amusing. Especially in my world. 'Tis a strong internal candidate for my ultra-secret post of the month on this board.
Somebody gets a swag box in the mail and we keep it on silent commitment terms. 🤐
It is good to do things like that for our readers and not have to slap our backs all the time as we do so. Except that now I've ....... 😔😕
(EXITS stage right. DawgNation hat and rare DN polo shirt in hand.)
It still gave me a moment of what you talkin bout willis.
It wasn't me. I didn't even put his name in my post.
I know. I didn't want to mention the OP. He might yell at me.
According to someone who's name rhymes w/ "Musty" - Evans is still a take. Makes sense as why else would they send Dell out to Texas.
Fields absolutely made the right call - he was too talented to sit and anyone begrudging that kid and his family from moving on are just wrong. I know "the waiver, the waiver"....nobody on here knows the whole deal on that and some media hack put it out there - neither Fields, his family, Kirby nor anyone else official did - NCAA operates under a cloud and the transfer portal is what it is.
Fields is ballin' - let it go and be happy for him. If you can't - that's on you.
My 15-year old daughter - a die-hard Dawg, thank you - saw the Ohio State highlights as we were watching football Saturday, and huffed out loud. I HAVE NOT made any - ANY - comments about this entire situation at home. Just haven't - I haven't intentionally left it out of conversation, we just always talk Georgia and our players and rarely discuss anyone else (except Clemson - she will not wear Orange, and that's her call...).
When I asked her why she reacted that way, her comment was "He was one of us, he was supposed to be committed, and then he left us. There's just something wrong with that..."
My response (just to be contrary): "Can't you just be happy for him?"
Her retort: HUFF..."I guess" HUFF...
I changed the channel.
That was her natural reaction. I am glad it was. Is that jealousy? Maybe. Is that sensing something is off about this whole deal? Maybe. Is that the wrong reaction for a 15 year old to have? Maybe. Is part of that loyalty to the Dawgs? Absolutely.
There is a slice of reality where she can "let it go," and still not be "happy for him." I am OK if she wants to live there.
Yeah after reading all of the takes since SoFl made that post... I'm going to reserve comment until we see what happens. I'm willing to believe that we'd give up on a player, if it truly results in a major altercation. I'm also willing to believe that they understand these young men are 17 years old and can make mistakes. If it wasn't isolated then I believe that it is justified. I have a hard time seeing our coaching staff giving up on a young man because of one incident, especially if it didn't lead to anything physical. But again, everyone, these are rumors, this is a young man, and you guys need to save your hate or vitriol for someone else. You guys don't know him or the situation. I hope that this young man finds success and maybe it comes as a Dawg, maybe it doesn't but let's hold off on the judgement of these young players, football is often all that they care about and can be very emotional for them, especially for the ones who are not used to losing.
Then there's this from somebody close to the program:
"Despite the internet and social media rumors you may have heard or seen, Georgia is still very much "in it" with 2020 North Shore RB Zachary Evans as well as current Auburn 2020 RB commitTank Bigsby.
Also, some of you may have seen Chris Milton's post on his Twitter account referring to rumors that Kendall Milton might flip to Ohio State, as of right now, the Miltons are happy with the commitment to UGA and look forward to being in Athens at UGA."
If we had already moved on from Evans, why spend the money and time to send Dell to Houston? See Chris Milton's Tweet for how the Interweb works!
Dusty Rhodes, the American Dream???
I’ll assume you never actually read my post and formulated an opinion. Not shocking. I’d encourage to actually read what I posted. Maybe focus on the parts highlighted in bold.
Ill also add of course you’re “in it” when it’s clear who the leader was.
Carry on.
Yes, I read several of your posts regarding this topic. I've also read posts by others with as close of ties to the program as yours. They've all said to ignore what was said regarding Evans.
Carry on.
