Recruiting Football Talk VII

[Smyrna ATL Vol]

I’m usually late to the party, but I just read the portal OL from UF chose UK.

That’s a good thing

 

[Weezer]

Wonder if we target another OG in the portal? Need one IMO.

 

[Smyrna ATL Vol]

Who cares?

Seriously lol. It’s a damn good class. Still have a few needs, but plenty of time to fill them.

Ratledge.

I would like to know what is missing and what needs to be fixed. The second and more important part is whom is available for LB coach, TE Coach or QB coach/OC; that we would sign an instantly become stone cold killers. Not saying that they are not doing a great job but we aren't moving off KP,GE,RG,WM, TB and of course CJH.

It's just not closing on some of our top targets.
Bates
Cole
Seaton
Brown
We are getting some good players, but missing out on the instant impact guys.

I would bet my house many came after him. Do you think others didn’t contact Vandergriff too? Some times they get decent players even with being Kentucky. They’re still taking that L next year no matter what.

His NIL was lowered and didn't get a similar offer from any big time school so he went to Kentucky for the biggest bag. I'd bet on it.

I just wanna say i think one of the best players in our class by the time it’s said and done is gonna be Edrees Farooq. Stud.

i dont know if he'll be one of the best, but I'd like to see Lindstrom get a shot at TE. I think he's gonna do ok on either side.

Seaton? Evan Stewart? Brazzell? Could be a wild day

I don't know why he left, but there are some young ILB who have more speed and maybe better pass coverage skills. Maybe JDJ thought he was going to see fewer snaps on passing downs in '24 and decided that was bad for his draft status.

Agreed. I think JDJ is a heck of a physical player, but his athleticism was only really good. Between the guys already on campus and the guys coming, I see why he might leave. UGA will miss him, but Mondon returns and lots of youth got snaps—plus 3 top guys who will be true freshmen this year.

 

[Outofmyvolcanmind]

So nice, we said it twice!

 

[Vawlz]

Damn. Looks like he did. Not to worry, tho. He must suck, too.

My goodness, the whining and handwringing by the LOM today has been epic.

Reading this board you would think we signed a Vandy-level recruiting class. Delusional.

I would freaking die! Let’s goo

 

[Vols410]

So Auburn took Amaris Williams from Florida and also dropped bags for Lagway and McCray, neither of which will sign today now. Yikes lol.

Freeze was made for this era.

Kiffin will end up at UF. I don’t care if he just signed an extension.

Two things can be true at the same time. A fan may see one as being more important than the other and that will color their opinion on the matter and likely make them stress that side more than the other.

1) We’re recruiting better than we have in a long time. True.

2) We’re not recruiting better than the elite programs we face each year. True.

So both can be true at the same time and discussing both is valid.

Oh.... both are true.

Just thought his comment was so obvious that there is no need in even mentioning it.

Of course to compete with the best you need to recruit with the best. Thus the water is wet comment.


He offer any solutions?

 

[RudyVol]

I really hope Walter Nolen goes to Oregon

Dumb post is dumb.

These were all guys the staff wanted and went after hard.

Interesting choice of words.
