'25 GA OT Josh Petty (Georgia Tech commit)

[Cosmo Kramer]

I think FSU with his sister is going to be very hard to beat.

If he and his Sister are so close shouldn’t he be going to Bama. That is acceptable there.

Some people want this to be an echo chamber of cheerleading, and only that. I personally think it’s more interesting with a wider variety of perspectives. I hope you stick around. But you’re not getting Petty.

We have never landed a 5*. Trust me, I don't have my hopes up lol.

They have a cool mascot

They have a Vandy level game experience.

Wasn't Calvin Johnson a 5* recruit?

If you're going to post about your opinion about what fans have sense and what don't please take that to the around NCAA forum. This is the recruiting forum.

Well played.

 

[drvenner]

I'm a GT fan so hoping we pull off a miracle lol.

Your screen name is worth a lot of likes.

Early days of the recruiting sites. Was a 6.0 on Rivals. No 247 or On3 back then.

Maybe so but keep an eye on osu

Is that a hedge on their chances with Sanders, perhaps? Are they recruiting Petty at OT? If their rumored desperation is true, could they be pulling out all stops in this recruitment to try and stop the bleeding from potentially missing Sanders?

I personally think Ohio State is likely out on Sanders

That's kind of what I was getting at. Shifting their efforts and dollars toward Petty if they see him as an OT.

But you do have a commitment from a kid in Tennessee named Isiah Groves.

He’s from a small school but he’s very underrated even though he rushed for 3,000 as a junior.

5’11 185 and lightening fast with good hands.

He would do very well in our offense but we’re already stacked at RB. I hope he breaks records at Georgia Tech.

What position is Heard(the 6’8 frosh) likely to play? Any chance LT to start out?

He’s starting at LT imo

I wouldn’t sleep on this kid. Him and Bennett Warren could very well be the bookends of the future. Great problem to have either way.

Two good looking prospects there. Ginther too. Get Sanders and we’re in really good shape.

Are we hoping to pull two OTs? Sanders and one more of Petty and Gaston? Personally, I feel like Sanders and one more OT and OL recruiting is not only done but done superbly.

Yep, you really are rolling when you get a 5 star tackle that’s too good to keep off the field but not good enough to beat out the kid ahead of him. So you kick him inside for a season or two like Bama did under Saban. Elarbee has completely flipped the room, we come along way from small, slow with no depth along the o-line.

I wouldn’t give Glen credit for this recruiting. He’s a good coach but this isn’t him.

I think we’d take them if they wanted to but are fine if they don’t. Petty will go to OSU (or maybe FSU or GT but almost positive not here). Gaston we have a better shot with imo but who knows where his head is. Odd duck.

Who would you credit in the recent success of OL recruitment? Just curious

I’m very interested to know this as well, @KingVFL.

He wasn't at the time. Rivals had him as a 4*. Scout back then had him as a 4*. 247 lists him as a 5 but they weren't even around then.

Can't stand em.

Love Groves! He's going to be really good at the next level. Comes from a tremendous family. We've had some good luck with backs from Tennessee lately. One of my favorites in this class.
