Dale Mother'effing Jones.

Saw one of the greatest plays in UT history when he deflected and intercepted Shula in person at Legion Field.

Friend of mine played with Jones.Said he would be so psyched before a game no one could even speak to him.He said even the coaches left him alone.Rule of thumb then was on game day don't look,speak or touch Dale Jones.

Brown has been taken for granted by UGA when they were recruiting Rochester. They basically told JR that he was the top guy on their broad and the one that they wanted. They lied like they always do but this time it has bit them in their a** when Brown took offense to their comments. They have tried hard since to make up but Brown has decided to pull back. Most casual observers still think he is bound to the mutts but it's very wide open. He does not like Garner at AU and we have made him feel very welcome and a priority. He has also seen what our Barnett have done. We lead IMO but our lead is now somewhat smaller after their camp where he got a lot of attention. He is a smart kid though that can see through the BS and the lies. I think Butch closes this one.

Top guy "on their broad"? I knew it, bribing him with hookers.

I actually watched Richmond Flowers play as a Sidney Lanier Poet in historic Crampton Bowl.

Steve Kiner and Jack Reynolds. UT put some good teams on the field in the late 60's until Dickey suddenly left to go back to UF. Then we got Battle and it went south.

We could use some more top tier DTs in the rotation to go along KMac and Tuttle in the future. I know we got Picou last year as well but I like to stack up top tier players on the first and second string. I think the depth chart still looks good for playing time at DT.

Alexis Johnson. Top Notch JUCO player and then another good HS DT will be a nice haul.

I forgot about Johnson. I agree it would be nice. We definitely need a top tier HS DT to round it out. Need to recruit heavy on top tier OL also.

Not really true at all - Bill Battle was a good guy and a decent coach, just not a great recruiter. Dooley was not a good coach, not a good recruiter and pretty much a pompous smarta$$.

Agree. Bill Battle was in no way like Derrick Dooley.

I think we will either land Dickerson or Price. Both are very close to being 5 star olinemen.

When they traveled to Tennessee for an unofficial visit, they weren’t treated like a regular family from Buford. They felt like they were treated like the Royal family.

As soon as the Browns pulled up to Tennessee’s facilities, there was a crowd waiting.

“The entire coaching staff, well, it seemed like everybody in the athletic department was waiting at the curbside with umbrellas waiting for us to show up because it was raining,” James said. “I was taken aback by that.”

Said Martha: “I was caught off guard. They were just saying “we don’t want you guys to get wet.”

The Tennessee visit exceeded expectations to say the least. Everything from walking inside Neyland Stadium to hearing about the school’s business program (Derrick is planning on studying business marketing), the family was happy about it all. Martha is a big basketball fan and she was particularly ecstatic to see the statue of legendary women’s basketball coach Pat Summit.

Well done coaches!!

If you ask his parents about their opinion on Mark Richt, they just light up.

“He is a subdued type of guy,” James said. “He seems like a good Christian man. He tries to make sure that he runs his program on the straight and narrow. He has high expectations for his players on and off of the field, and I like that.”

Said Brown’s mother: “I just enjoy his (Richt’s) presence. When he talks to us, I feel like he is sincere about Derrick’s career if he chooses to go to UGA and also sincere about building a long-term relationship.”

Despite their affinity for coach Richt, Brown’s parents say every coach is even right now. They don’t have any favorites. They do have a memorable visit to one school, though.
