I have not heard he’s a silent. I heard a couple weeks ago he’s a strong flip candidate.
What's frustrating is that probably 95% of Dawgnation is very grateful for what @SoFL_Dawg brings. But he still seems to get a lot of push back....
He has been clear in the past that he isn't an insider....he gets his Intel from one very connected source. He doesn't guarantee anything......but he has shared when he was really confident about a player. Sometimes his confidence was correct.....sometimes it wasn't.
It wasn't because his info was bad......the info just changed. It happens to even the most connected of them all......Kirby.
One issue many Dawgnation members face is a lack of reality in regards to recruiting. If you go through the top 100 per 247......Georgia was literally mentioned as a possibility, to some degree, for 50 of those players. We obviously aren't going to sign all of those.....but we are getting as many as those other top programs.
Recruiting is difficult and there are plenty of other schools that have a lot to offer recruits as well. Not just Georgia. It just seems that recruiting may be too much for many on here to handle.
Those that want to disagree with soflow....go ahead....but there are better ways to do it. Heck...soflow and I have disagreed on a number of things....but we are still able to carry on a constructive conversation.
Soflow has contributed as much, if not more, than anyone on this board. He's not above the board and he's not more important than others on here.....but he is a significant contributor.
I for one hope he continues doing his thing.....but more importantly......I want him to have the freedom of sometimes being wrong....without others calling him out.
Finally, I want to thank a number of you who continually contribute to this board. Especially this week. One of the most exciting and fun weeks I've experienced on Dawgnation.
This is an exciting week for the Dawgs. I hope everyone on here can enjoy it.
Go Dawgs
By silent officials, you mean kids who don’t want people to know he’s in town?
I guess. There are supposed to be 2 silent OVs this week.
Not hearing much about Manning as a possibility down the stretch but he's in town and looking for a place to play. What are our chances with him? Is it a Ringo or Manning type situation or are we hoping to pull them both into the class?
I think he means silent as in not openly broadcasting they’re visiting. Figured he’d be one as he’s committed to LSU and all but now that it’s known he’s visiting I thought I could possibly be 2 others we don’t know about. The TBD I’m taking as Card
We can all hope!!!
@texdawg FTW. Well said.
I don't think OVs can necessarily be silent. I believe they are published just from the documentation that is filled out at the beginning of the visit.
But there are certainly ways to keep it from being publicized.
Don't know if everyone knew this.....but paperwork is filled out and signed before every visit....official or unofficial.
@Denmen185 named Hudson Card on Dec 10. That is earlier than Fly guy and BenRainwater (or "you know who" - privately). So, for this he is the winner - and other ways, too. So, DV me some more.
I am just going off of what Jeff said. I have no idea honestly.
Helpful info @HumbleYourself -- Daily Dawgnation readers and Hurry-Up thread folk have known the following about Manning since mid-October:
Yes, my bad. Misread.
Both he and Ringo are takes. What I’m hearing is that UGA/Oregon splits these guys. That’s the thought. Ringo has a spot reserved and has for majority of this cycle. Manning is a take as well if he wants in.
This isn't an easy wave to surf month-to-month and year-to-year. Hard to do this for a living. Impulsive young men here. Going to make everyone look silly when they put it all on the table.
Highly unstable field. There's proabably 4-5 guys every year who say one thing and believe one thing and then do many many many other things. They befuddle those close to them, too.
