That's what this forum has become. It's not about credible information. It's about who can be the biggest homer, which is sad and ridiculous considering how important recruiting is to the program. Personally, I think recruiting should be merged into the ff. The two are hand in glove and it makes no sense to have two interconnected subjects separated not just organizationally but also separated by editorial perspective. If some posters really need a forum where everything is positive and it's always open season on anything else, I'm sure that Freak could open up a new appropriately titled forum with special rules thereby allowing the rest of us to enjoy objective and open discussion about recruiting.If Hubbs says anything that isn’t in favor of UT, most say he “doesn’t know anything anymore, is out of the loop”, etc.
But but it’s pro UT, he’s “one of the best in the business and has been connected for a long time”.
^^^^^THIS. EXACTLY^^^^^ If you all got trolled it was by your own people. He was 100% predicted to UGA by rivals, and volquest, and by most if not all the “experts” on this site Ever since ESD. Why? Because it was known by anyone who would know, that the LOI was already signed, sealed, and delivered. We just agreed to hold off announcing or sending it in to the SEC headquarters until he announced at the All-Star game. So if anyone of you feel like you got trolled or are mad, well that is on you. And to the one idiot who keeps saying it isn’t over. You should stop, your just making yourself look foolish.How did he troll anybody?
Ok, this narrative that all you hope he enjoys blocking, and he won’t be used at UGA, as if he would at Tennessee has to stop. Your OC (formerly our OC, AND thanks for that by the way) inherited a 5 star tight end who made the All-SEC Freshman team, in I.Nauta. And he was criminally underused by Chaney.They'll have to throw it to him for that to happen.

But you all make it seem like he should have picked you guys because of your prolific use of your TE’s. well he are the TE Stats from 2019 for UTlite, and UGA.
Tennessee
Dominick Wood- 21 Receptions, for 268 yards and 1 td.
Austin Pope- 4 receptions, for 21 yards and 0 TD’s
Princeton Fant- 2 receptions, 15 yards, and 0 TD’s
UGA
Eli Wolfe- 13 receptions, 194 yards, and 1 TD (he had 8 reception in 3 years at Tennessee)
Charlie Woerner- 9 receptions, 78 yards, and 1 TD
John Fitzpatrick- 1 receptions, 22 yards, and 0 TD’s
2019 TE Stats Total
Tennessee- 27 receptions, 314 yards, and 1 TD
UGA- 23 receptions, 294 yards, and 2 TD’s
Summation.
Neither school used their TE’s very well as receivers. I think it is fair to say that they played a much bigger role in the running game (blocking) at UGA.
So this perception being put out that by UTlite fans that DW made a bad choice because UTlite develops TE’s better than UGA is crap. Chaney didn‘t use them at UGA, nor has he at UTlite. He will start day 1 at UGA (i dont know, he might have at UTlite as well). But he will have a much better chance at winning something at UGA than he would in Knoxville. Better academics at UGA (don’t know that this played any part in his decision as he looks to be a 3 and gone type of player).
And the perception that he trolled you all is crap. He has dropped many obvious hints that UGA was his destination. And it was widely known by ALL the experts that he had already signed his LOI, and that it was sent to UGA on ESD. If you were trolled it was by your own fans or supposed “insiders”. That is on you.

Chaney did attempt to use our TE’s but our QB missed so many targets to him and there were also some drops along the way. Your TEs just weren’t getting many opportunities. So difference is we didn’t execute on our opportunities and you all just didn’t actually give many opportunities. Our future at Qb should change that though.Ok, this narrative that all you hope he enjoys blocking, and he won’t be used at UGA, as if he would at Tennessee has to stop.

It is my opinion that the TE would've been utilized more had we had better QB play. With halfway decent QB play, this team wouldve been 10-3 or better. Just rewatching the game, if we wouldve had Peyton Ramsey for the entire season at UT, we may have won the East.Ok, this narrative that all you hope he enjoys blocking, and he won’t be used at UGA, as if he would at Tennessee has to stop.

Good analysis, but not sure why you then go with the UT digs. It’s also weird you act like venting about a recruit going elsewhere is somehow unique to UT fans. Fans of every school do the same thing. Just look at the UGA board in regards to the rumors that Evans wants out of his LOI.Ok, this narrative that all you hope he enjoys blocking, and he won’t be used at UGA, as if he would at Tennessee has to stop.

I would grant you that it's looser in rf than it was a few years ago but there is still a wolf pack mentality in this forum whereby a group of posters who see the rf as their private and separate domain will attack anyone who questions certain sources and assertions. I think that @Freak probably sepearated recruiting and general football conversation at the request of posters who were used to seeing it that way on the old Scout board. The reason the pay sites divide those subjects by forum is that the general conversation is the bait to try and get people to pay for access to "inside" recruiting scoop. Over time, a theory developed that asking tough questions in this forum could have a negative impact on recruiting because prospects and their friends and families would come here to see what we're thinking. That theory was then used as a justification for creating a highly censored, one-sided forum to discuss what is one of the two most important subjects concerning the program. It's better now than it was not too long ago, but it's got a ways to go if the goal is to have an inviting forum for open discussion.I would be curious as to the actual balance of positive vs negative people. My perception is that it is pretty balanced already in the RF, and the FF tilts decidedly negative.
