Yeah, I'm sure y'all are right. Milton and Evans seemed more social types to me whereas Tank doesn't seem to do a lot of interviews that I've seen. And I got the feeling Evans was in the group chat they had going.
Agree. I've defended him here many times (check my posts) and will continue to hope the best for him but 1)Kirby is in charge and it is evident, by the length of time this went on, that he tried to make it work. But 2) He (Zach) has to learn to just walk away from people who are baiting him (If, indeed that's what happened here). I'm done with it other than hoping he understands that there's a lesson to be learned here and learns it. At some point, regardless of adversity, you have to accept responsibility for your actions and learn from your mistakes. I truly hope he does. I'll continue to hope for the best for him.
Did I read you say earlier that Fromm is coming back.
The coach probably did do something. I doubt that it warranted a physical response from Evans. You see on the news kids attack people for almost no reason. At my school students have been known to push teachers for no reason other than they have anger management issues.
As far as the championship game. I am proud to see a coach that will stand by principles. Kind of like the ones Kirby has not taking Evans regardless of how good he is. Our kicking players off the team that don't live up to UGA standards. Do you think it would make a difference to Kirby if we were about to play in the Championship game and someone violated a team rule.
After watching his interview I’m bummed because I think he’s a good kid that needs guidance and away from a bad situation. Over the years in all sports there’s been guys just as talented if not more lose a chance to get out because of similar circumstances. I hope wherever he goes he gets the guidance he needs. I know he would get it at Georgia, what little I know about Dell and Jonas I know they’re about making you into the best man they can and I think they would have done it for Zach.
Team. Let’s end the Zach Evans talk and move on. #3 class with like 5 more we can sign. Fromm is returning ( I think ) and we are going to make a run at a natty !!! HBTFD!!
cue apple eating girl.
I was dancing on the ceiling all night long, just thinking abut ZE running with the night. Truly believing love will conquer all, I hoped he'd be between the hedges running with the night. Still, he should just sail on, and just go.
I'm not even gonna attempt to try to understand any of that. I've got no idea. Kipp was asked and his exact response was..."With no enrollment, I'm told the counter toward the 25 is returned."
Perhaps, I guess it depends on the facts. The onus is on the adult, IMHO, to make sure it doesn’t go that far but ZE is old enough to know better.
Just tuned back in to see 200 new posts since 5 pm. Terribly Disappointed and just have to say I disagree with giving up on ZE at this point. Sorry to be negative but this hurts. We came too far and expended too many resources knowing his issues and knowing he needed change of environment. He is trying to get away from an environment he and his family admit is bad, but we yank the life preserver before he makes it here. Come on. Maybe his environment is not as bad as we’ve been led to believe, but I believe he should be judged on his conduct after he got out of there.
Bring him in, make him pay dues and cut him later If he doesn’t shape up.
In closing, Kelee Ringo is a dawg, day number 2!
It clearly states that there is a max of 25 students who can sign an NLI or financial aid agreement. As soon as the signature is on the NLI or FAA, the initial counter is gone. It's not enrollment that determines the counter, but the signature on the NLI or FAA.
Ask Kipp which NCAA bylaw states that if a player doesn't enroll it's not an initial counter. I haven't seen any references to enrollment being the criteria determining the initial counter, but the bylaws are long and complex. I'm looking forward to seeing what he has to say. Got a link to that thread on TOS?
FWIW I wonder if the cell phone incident info was managed by the HS coaches. Not the incident, but the facts, notably, was the physical aspect hidden until Zach had signed the LOI? I cannot believe that a 2nd physical incident would not have been instant news.
I think timing as a means to thwart another school is a tactic used when possible. Just speculation about the cell phone, but if there was a 2nd physical incident, again, it is very hard to believe that wouldn't have been on that evening's prime time news (so to speak) without it being purposefully hidden. Doesn't pass the smell test that there would be a delay in that info reaching UGA. So, it either didn't happen, or it was hidden.
After the DV rains that showered almost every single time somebody brought up ZE's grammar, this post gets...... 0 DVs.
You know what? ZE is a fine young man, I wish him nothing but the best...but....You people...you people have really let me down today.
Sounds like the perfect case for @Columbo
Seriously though, it appears to be done and done so maybe time to just put it to bed or out of its misery which ever one feels appropriate.
It sounds like we told the next Adrian Peterson to take a hike...that’ll always be a tough pill to swallow.
Kirby Smart? More like...Kirby Dumb!

Technical LOI Question . Does LOI have a early enroll designation vs summer enroll designation in the contract ?
No doubt the coach(es) and Zach’s reported environment played a role, but Zach won’t be a Bulldawg because of choices he made. Solely blaming the coach is silly and a ricochet shot at Kirby.
I've believe I read TAMU has had a long history of missing on top players out of Evans' high school.
