'20 GA QB Harrison Bailey (UT SIGNEE)

[AngryButchJones]

This off-season hasn’t been kind to Bailey. Despite winning MVP of a Rivals camp and performing well in 2 other camps, and also making the Elite 11 in the Elite 11 challenge, he has dropped 130 spots in 247 rankings since the end of last season.

Thanks Jimmy

Price when asked if Harrison Bailey be a 5 star in the updated Rivals100 tomorrow?

I think he will be by the end of the cycle.

 

[TrippieRedd]

Probably be like 34

Bailey moved up 11 spots to #32 Nationally on Rivals. Not quite a 5 star yet but close.

I was the only one who felt Bailey earned his fifth star this summer and I can understand the hesitation around the Vols commitment. While he was amazing at our Five-Star Challenge, he struggled at The Opening and The Elite 11, and he’s still a bit inconsistent. I like how he has re-shaped his body, dedicated himself to getting better and his leadership on the field, but he will need to have a big season and all-star game to push ahead based on the lone vote.

How many 5 stars do they give out by the end of each cycle?

 

[Devo182]

They have Tate Ratledge as #12 overall lol ok

30ish....

Rankings don’t measure leadership ability and mental makeup of a QB which really makes zero sense. That is a huge factor in their success. It’s how a guy like Fromm beats out an Eason or has more success early in career compared to a prettier looking thrower in JG.

Honestly, how would you quantify leadership and mental makeup without it being subjective? I get what you're saying. It is those intangibles that make good players into great players. No doubt in my mind that HB will be a great player.

I love how sites keep saying stuff like "he'll have to" or "if he wants to EARN" haha.
I don't give a flip, coaches laugh at the sites, and kids are playing for their future, these guys over here talking about their approval like it matters.

So Farrell says he has him as a five star and then goes on to explain why he is not a five star. Makes sense.

he committed to UT...well you know where he’s be ranked

So I take it that rising junior that was rag dolling him at whichever camp it was will be #1 overall next year.

GA has 2 QBs ranked in the top 10. One is going to TN, and the other is going to LSU. I wonder if the Fields ordeal has anything to do with them not wanting to go there.

Put them through a large number of leadership and mental reps, duh.

I feel like I remember this, who was it?

Their statements concerning that. “Chaney passed on Bailey” and “Carson Beck is the best qb for their system.”

Yeah....

I don't remember reading anything that said he struggled at the Elite 11.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

That’s what a Ga commitment does for you

 

[LA Vol]

I'm glad HB just blocks out the noise and works on his own personal goal of getting better. He'll be at UT soon and he'll have plenty of opportunities to show what he can do when it matters more.

 

[Devo182]

I don't remember reading anything that said he struggled at the Elite 11.

Depends on which portion was seen. His initial outing wasn't great. A bit slow on decisions and took the most timed sacks of anyone. NOW after that he did much better and he moved up in the rankings each day iirc. Considering he apparently crushed the Rivals Camp, that may have been seen as struggling in comparison. All in context.

Were Rivals reps even present? Prolly read it like the rest of us.

Think that was more him trying to explain others hesitation on him getting the 5th star. I’m just happy Rivals sees his talent. Unlike 247 and especially ESPN that criminally underrate him.

I am glad that Rivals sees it also, but it sure sounded like it was his words and not others regarding his "deficiencies."
