Let's review HB's tweet.

Why? Evans and UT never had any mutual interest. If he’s having cold feet it’s because he wants LSU or A&M. If he wants out then Kirby should let him out to a school outside the SEC or UGA’s schedule. Could also be ACT issues since he recently sat out of a playoff game to take the test. Maybe he didn’t get the necessary scores.

Exactly what I was thinking. The whole article is weird. He already signed, just has a lot of pressure on him, and wants to take official visits to be sure? But... you...already....signed...

Makes no sense. Maybe he just signed a financial aid agreement?

Signed with UGA and then reached out to other schools..

It isn't over until the kid is on a campus fully enrolled

If he sent in the NLI then it is “over”. The NLI is a legally binding document. If he sent it in and it was fully executed, it is over unless the school releases him from the NLI.

Now if all he signed were scholarship papers, then you are correct, he would not be official until he shows up to a class.

He said he knew where he wanted to go before the season started, but took officials to other schools just to be sure. He didnt mean he's taking officials after he signed. He's an EE.

Not very impressed with those guys at RB

I think with our 3 backs you almost take the multi QB class type of approach. bring in multiple guys and hope that one of them turns out to be a legit SEC back. Surely out of 3 in one class we can find one solid contributor in the backfield and make the other 2 switch to defense.

Which is why I said Evans initiated the conversations after signing.. how could they know if they didn't receive an LOI?

Evans stated in multiple interviews he signed and I'm sure he let them know after initially signing, which is how it got out he signed. After he's signed there can be no contact regardless of who initiates it.

If you are UGA and already have a stable of 5 star backs, this kid really isn’t worth the risk/reward. The Aggies are really thin at that position now and that may be his landing spot.

UGA also doesn't play a&m, so unless Kirby is salty there's no reason to force him to stay. I don't know if he'll count against the class numbers since they already received his LOI.

Considering the twists and turns this kid's recruitment has taken, I'm not sure this is a fair assumption.

Either way, I'd tell him to either show up and straighten up or sit out a year and be someone else's headache.

Apparently that worked out for FSU and Thomas, but it seems like a massive locker room risk. If he costs UGA a spot in the class then I could maybe see it, but I'd rather wash my hands of it and be done. UGA won't play a&m unless both teams happen to make it to the SECC. If he wants LSU or Bama then I guess I'd make him burn the redshirt.

He puts the capital T in Troll. HS equivalent of Antonio Brown, this is going to be the gift that keeps giving to someone.

Kid's crazier than a bed bug and it may not be his fault. UGA will probably let him go, but should it happen he DOES enroll there, he will not be there for a sophomore year. I doubt very seriously if he finishes at a P5 school. I think he ends up bouncing around the small school circuit and three years from now, a pro team takes a flyer on the talent and promptly wishes they hadn't with the headlines he'll generate for off-field stuff.

His recruitment shenanigans and high school issues are not red flags, they are one billion Chinese waving Mao's little red book. Frankly, I really hope I'm wrong for his sake, I truly do.

This sounds like the type of running back Joey Freshwater would have no problem bringing in to play for him. Already brought in Briles and Durkin, what's 1 more problem to have on campus!
