2 corner backs


Why? We will have 5 CBs on the roster next year that are freshman or sophmores and most have played really good this year plus Vincent and then will sign at least 3 in the next class
So in 2 years will have 8 CBs on the roster

That’s really the only argument you got? Yeah, I’m sure LSU is pure as the new fallen snow. If you can’t see why a RB would want to go to UGA then that’s your problem.


To go to Georgia? Sure. To go to Georgia and play for Kirby “can’t win” Smart? Nah

Why do some of y’all automatically assume the kid is getting paid if he chooses another school? I mean these other programs have good recruiters too and let’s not act like we are above backing up the trucks as well.

Georgia had a great recruiting engine and great talent before Kirby showed up. Been playing in a weak division for years.

Don’t know if he is a good coach or a great coach. Certainly had a bad offensive scheme this year. Fields performance at Ohio State makes Kirby look pretty dumb offensively.

In IMO, the only reason Georgia is relevant every year is because the SEC east sucks, if it were more competitive they wouldn't be playing in SEC champ game every year, Kirby Is mediocre and they obv. pay these recruits to come in and be mediocre also, lots of HS talent being wasted every year, sooner are later these Kids will figure out that taking that quick cash outta HS "if true" isn't worth it for the long haul, shame on most of the parents for allowing this to happen.

Didn’t Georgia have a good OL haul. If you are an RB you want to run behind a great OL.

For the UGA fans in here lurking and downvoting- scoreboard bitches. The one that matters. No number of 5 stars will change the fact that you have the heir apparent to Les Miles on gameday.

Honest question. When has a kid playing games ever worked out for LSU? I have zero confidence in Evans.


Yep. It’s pretty obvious he didn’t “silently sign” this week. Move on the the next guy because he isn’t worth the bullshite. Time for the staff to spend time on something productive.

When this many high profile guys switch things up suddenly at the end of the process? Are you really this naive? Have you ever followed recruiting? We all know how Bama uses their REC bagmen to close late. You think Kirby didn’t learn while he was at Bama?

Rewind to some of Freeze’s big classes and flips at Ole Miss. The accusations were thrown around at the time and they were proven correct. It’s the same thing here. Kirby just learned from the master how to hide it better.

Richt was a good recruiter, but he wasn’t in the same class. He did not close like this. Not even close. I wonder why.

Richt was not a good recruiter. He was just the head coach at Georgia.

His Miami tenure is damning.

It raises eyebrows when a school running Les Miles' 1972 offense signs 4 top 50 WRs in one class. Or when you pile up 4 & 5 star guys at the same position which really isn't a position of need for that team.

You have to be one helluva recruiter to pull shite like that off.

So that explains the sudden resurgence at UGA after his arrival? It wasn’t just coaching. Before Richt and Saban entered the league, the SEC was almost exclusively regional and the only program recruiting nationally was UT, and that was out of necessity. Richt and Saban were the first coaches at other SEC programs to start changing that and focus on big-time recruiting and going across and outside of the South.

There is a big difference between a guy not ever being able to recruit and a guy not keeping pace with the changes in the game and in recruiting as they age. Saban was the better of the two from the start, but he adapted and Richt didn’t. The rest of the league quickly started focusing on broadening their recruiting bases and he fell back to the pack. But none of that means he couldn’t recruit. UGA wouldn’t have risen from mediocrity to at least being consistently good to very good without better players.

So what does it say about Kirby's coaching ability when all his 5 star recruits couldn't beat a team with a RB who was told by Satan that he would never be a RB, and a QB who was told by the almighty Urban that he throws like a girl???

If you actually look at those rosters, that resurgence was with players mostly recruited by Jim Donnan.

The roster Richt inherited in 2001 was loaded, especially on the lines of scrimmage. It was a far better roster than what was left when he was fired after 2015.

ETA: Richt’s fatal flaw from a recruiting perspective imo was, when he missed on a top target, defaulting to moving down the board to the next available in-state kid instead of finding another elite option elsewhere. There are a lot of good players in GA, but Richt used it as a crutch. The depth deteriorated because of that.
