So in the past day, UGA has had 2 comitments for the 2018 class. Some people were worried because there was a lack of star-power in this class, but considering the monster class the 2017 one was, this was always going to be a small class anyway. 4-star offensive guard Warren Ericson, which is a position of need even though this last class had a ton of o-line talent 2/3-star (depending on service) cornerback Rachad Wildgoose, which is a top tier name. Wildgoose will be interesting considering that if you give a drat about overall star ratings, he seems like a head scratcher. Some of the UGA messageboards are gnashing their teeth saying that he is like 114th at his position why isnt UGA getting top 10 at his position. It would be great if he was one of those diamond in the rough guys and played bigger than both his size (5'10") and rating.

We've had a really nice week of recruiting. https://twitter.com/onlygators/status/871019045641957376 2018 safety Amari Burney also picked UF over tOSU a few days ago. Cool and good that Mac is actually recruiting early now.

Maybe I saw it more because I lived in Atlanta for so long but I felt like the ones that were most vocal about them deserving a NC or whatever coach, etc. didn't go to the school. Most of the guys I knew that actually went to the school, and I'm not specifically talking about UGA, were pretty level headed.

Wildgoose is pretty good, we briefly had him as a commit before his recruitment blew up. Going over ratings from months ago before the sites did their homework is dumb.

I also know that the more you camp, (generally) the better your ratings can get because you can get more exposure, so I don't know if he hasn't done a lot of those camps. I don't have access to the UGA pay sites anymore because the guy whose account i was borrowing to read their forums let his account lapse and i'm to cheap to pay to follow SUPER INSIDER NEWS that is mostly BS anyway.

I just don't see him coming to UGA. 2 pro style QBs, Eason has 2 more seasons with us, Fromm takes a redshirt this year and has 2 or 3 as starter, so I don't see any big QB recruit this cycle.

Korranus posted:Kids these days think this kind of stuff is fire emoji fire emoji fire emoji however so it's only going to get worse I actively discourage the kids at IMG from making these stupid videos. We've only had a single kid participate in one since these dumb videos became a thing. And even then, I asked him to go home and do it because we wouldn't have any part of it. I just think they're tacky as poo poo, and if you have even a 0.1% chance of flipping, then it makes you look like an idiot. I got a call from a pretty major site last year wanting to know if I could talk Kellen Mond into doing a trick shot commitment - wait for it - from a loving hot air balloon. I only told them that if they ever ask for a hot air balloon again, they'd never make another video on campus. That was the third time they asked about something involving a balloon like that. Most of these things start with click-hungry sites covering offseason camps, and talking the kids into thinking anyone will be impressed with it. So odds are, yes, it'll probably get bigger/dumber as time goes on

I just think they're tacky as poo poo, and if you have even a 0.1% chance of flipping, then it makes you look like an idiot. Haven't encountered any ridiculous recruiting stuff yet, though I cover an area of mostly small, rural schools. National Signing Day brought out the most overblown thing I've seen. Tiny middle/high school in out in the sticks had five signing, two with Florida State, two with middling Division II programs and one with a junior college. The signings took 90 minutes in a schoolwide assembly. We had to have: - The JROTC bringing in the flag - Cheerleaders to lead out the players - A student leading the pledge - The National Anthem from the high school band - A student-led invocation - Words from the principal - A student to describe National Signing Day - The coach to introduce the parents - A local DJ to introduce the players - The coach to further introduce the players - Each player to speak - Finally, the signings I'm citing this from a slick program that was distributed. The only thing missing was videos, which I assume the system was too poor to own any editing software. By contrast, the much larger school took five minutes after school to conduct its pair of signings. They also had a player sign with a pretty decent Division I school. The local school finally has a legit D-I prospect who's gotten offers from most of the SEC (including Bama), FSU and Oregon. I'll see how ridiculous this gets. Hopefully not too bad as the coach lets kids have fun but has no tolerance for bullshit.

Mostly decent weekend for VT. Commits from: 3* DT Cam Goode from DC, 3* DE Eli Adams from South Carolina, 3* OL John Harris from GA. Both the DL are short, but very much fit what Bud Foster likes to do with his DL, so I imagine they'll be fine in Blacksburg. The OL was top of our board remaining for interior OL, and is our first committed this class at a position of huge need, so that's nice. On the negative side, 3* WR Bryce Thompson, who should likely be a 4* based on pure talent, decommitted from VT and seems unlikely to be able to enroll in any P5 school.

Yea, Thompson is unfortunate but he probably wouldn't have qualified anyway so much ado about nothing. I like Goode, indifferent about the DE, but really like Harris.

So, Tech's picked up 10 commits in the last 11 days, including 4 today. That's the upside. The downside, well, let's list out the commits + their best offer: Alan Bowman - 3* QB - Houston, Illinois Corey Fulcher - UR WR - No other offers Myron Mitchell - 3* WR - No other offers Gabriel Douglas - 3* WR - Indiana (only other offer) Troy Bradshaw - UR OL - Tulsa Clayton Franks - 2* OL - New Mexico Weston Wright - 3* OL - Air Force Jabari James - UR Ath - Tulsa (only other FBS offer) Jaylon Hutchings - 2* DT - Kansas State John Graves - 2* DE - Colorado State John Scott - 2* DE - Kansas State Cameron Valentine - 3* DE - Navy (I guess) Mekhi Garner - 3* S - Navy That's some cruitin' right there.
