Yall see the interview where he was asked what went through his mind while the ball was in the air? He said something along the lines of "only two words come to mind - Its mine" Haha loved it

Watching his commitment live caused me to use nitro glycerin.

 

[LittleVol]

Kid is jacked!

 

[DaddyChad]

This is huge. If he can maximize his potential under this staff as he should, he has the chance to be really good and gives us the big time long/physical/athletic receiver we've been looking for long term. Could definitely end up being highest ranked current commit tbh

Sanders….but you said current commit.

 

[DaddyChad]

This kid will end up a 5*. Book it.

ON3 checks notes, “not a Georgia commit, better drop his rating, really don’t like his measurables.”

 

[Jackcrevol]

This kid will end up a 5*. Book it.

Probably deserving of it. But the rankings are so glaringly biased, I sincerely doubt it.

 

[allvolrecruiting]

Looks great. Exciting. How is his speed?

Speed looks fine in highlights. At 6’3-6’4, it’s never going to be his biggest strength but he should end up in the 4.5s like Cedric Tillman. Actually reminds me a lot of Tillman

I think that the staff is recruiting at a championship level. It's not about rankings but about fit.

Not in relation to this player in particular, but. . . you think people would quit worrying about the star level next to a player's name after what Heupel has gotten out of the players he had and the circumstances when he got here.

He's getting the players who fit the scheme  and the culture. Heupel has given us zero reason to worry about anything, really.

Late to the party BOOOOM!

Keon Coleman who played at FSU.
That’s another comparison

Really good comparison. Smith reportedly ran a 4.7 at UGA's camp while Coleman ran a 4.61 at the combine. Very similar players.

I’m skeptical of that number considering the emphasis our staff puts on receivers being able to run well.

 

[kemotoe]

Weird UGA would pass on a player of his caliber. It’s getting weird how all the players that we get that UGA is involved with they end up passing on them so they sign with us.

I’m not.
Speed isn’t his game, but neither was Tillman or Jennings.

This dude has a large catch radius and loves to block. But no he’s not very fast.

Yes, that's what happens. We only get the guys that they pass on. In fact, our entire class is made up of cast-offs

He’s a prototype downfield blocking asset…definitely that program’s cup of tea. So I call bolsch.

 

[RiseToTheTop]

Absolutely love giving Heupel so many diff guys who have diff skill sets. Makes us so dangerous.

 

[TAF]

you forgot BLUE FONT

Yeah i agree, he looks plenty fast to me. Not squirrel white, but still.

Coleman plays faster than his 40 time would indicate. Some people don't run the 40 well but have game speed. (you already know this, so that was a generalized statement).... Smith is a polished, crafty route runner which can make up for top end speed deficiencies. Our trainers can definitely help with that long speed though.

i thought they exact same thing, reminds me of a lot of tillman

Oh and I anticipate they will.

As Tennessee fans we have all become accustomed to the 6’2 , 40 inch Vert, 4.4 archetype player out wide waiting to make a big play. Spoiled by it, actually.

I don’t care if this kid ever reaches 4.54 in his 40.

As long as he headtaps DBs and runs over safeties he’s going to be very good for our offense
