with past coaching staffs, hearing that we're recruiting guys for offense while the powerhouses were recruiting them for defense felt like the only reason we got those guys. Nowadays when I hear it, I know that our redneck savant of a coach sees something that others don't. I mean, we have an absolute stable at WR, RB, and now TE and Heupel's like "I can turn Walk ons into 3rd round picks and 200 yard receivers into Belitnikoff winners and you're welcome to come compete for spots on the best offense in the country". I mean, If a kid wants to compete with:
-5 star WR who runs over Safeties like Jamal Lewis (McCoy),
- a guy who average almost 20 yards a catch and can catch anything and trains 5-8 hours a day (Keyton),
- a 3rd string RB who averaged over 6 yards a carry last year (Sampson),
- a WR who runs a 4.3 flat (squirrel)
-and a handful of highly talented sought after 4 star skills players behind them (Webb, Leacock, Seldon, etc)....
Then that's a kid who is highly competitive that I trust to carry the ball on Saturdays

So we could possibly have an inside track so long as uga won’t let him play wr?

He isn't ready to commit and Georgia isn't ready to take him on offense. He plays a lot of Wildcat QB in high school, so there's a greater learning curve for him in college as a WR. But, he has the potential to be an absolute weapon in our offense. This is a similar recruit to Sylvester Smith from last cycle in skill set. Mikell is taller and more explosive though.

Reading the practice reports, it looks like our WR depth is thin as it is (with Bru, Squirrel and Leacock out we were running some walkons with the 2’s), plus losing a few guys after this year. Might not be a bad idea for us to go full throttle for both this guy and Wingo to build our depth there

Staff is gonna push hard for Mikell and Wingo. And we likely get both.

You know better. You can tell your buddy all day his gf cheats but until he catches her, he won’t believe it. I suspect he’ll sign with Ga if they really want him & he’ll be in the DB very soon.

Heres hoping, if we dont want to take 5 wr’s then we’d have to go to the portal anyways, might as well take a freshman instead so we can have the full eligibility

I’d rather take a portal guy. Odds of 4-5 blue chip receivers sticking around for 3-4 years is slim to none.

Besides, we get a lot of good press for how many receivers we get drafted. Something like 5 in the last 3 drafts. The most in college football iirc. If Bru, keyton, and Thornton all go pro after this year, then we might not have a draftable receiver in 2024. I don’t want to break the streak.

Take three stud prep receivers and 1-2 stud portal guys in the mold of Bru or Thornton.

How many kids is GA gonna sign this period? Every time I come on here and read a kid's thread, I see GA in the mix, leading, or pressuring for a commitment... They can't take everyone, their NIL isn't that big, and why can't kids see they will be in the 2-3 deep for several years or come here and most likely have a chance to start by year 2. Crazy.

If they keep taking commits there will be a lot of Georgia players in the portal this post season.
