I think losing him would be a HUGE loss, could secure a very stable Uga future
RantingDawg
This is where I would love for Georgia to differ with Alabama, get the big uglies AND the star QB. Clemson went toe to toe with all those 5 stars for 60 minutes and as far as I could find, had never had a recruiting class ranked higher than #9 ( I didn’t really look into too thoroughly). What they did have was elite talent at a few key positions and an elite QB.
RantingDawg I think Lawrence is smart enough to know that Jamaree is a big Georgia lean because of Thomas.
Guys I just don’t have a good feeling about TLaw. I will be thrilled if we get him but I’ve already written him in at Clemson in my mind. I would LOVE to be wrong on this though. I will say I am super excited about our future at QB with Eason and Jake “from state” Fromm. I don’t think missing out on TLaw will be a really big blow, I would rather get the 5 star big uglies. Alabama wins with nobody great at QB every year.
tmdawg12 I am with you there TM. I cut the back yard and part of the front today. Can hardly move now. 99 degrees with heat index of 110.
dirtydawgs I like the chances. Clemson has last visit which scares me though
I think slightly north of 50%. And the more hungover he is tomorrow, the higher that percentage increases…
Anyone in the know have any idea on what our percentages are with Trevor Lawrence?
You da man. That is the video teaser
Indeed. I suspect it’s going to get juicy
Sounds like time to get the popcorn ready and tune in
https://www.facebook.com/RandyTravisFOX5/videos/1155283084536529/
Here is the tease video from Fox5
Remember when the Volnuts thought Lawrence was a UT lock. VolNation is now posting that CJ Lewis,2017 dual threat qb has committee too UT. 6’3.5″, 205 lbs. #40 dual threat QB; #1633 overall rank for class of ’17.
“All in all it’s just another brick in the wall.” in my best Pink Floyd impersonation.
DawgLink We know that and I am thinking he does too. Clemson is not much of a town either IMO.
tmdawg12 That’s what my guy said today as I handed him his check, 🙂
Bulldawg36 GATA!
Bulldawg36 Yep!
DawgLink Nothing here.
Thanks guys, I hadn’t heard anything about a dawg night so figured I’d asked
Anyone hear something about this?
Fox 5 has a video on Facebook about Grayson High school. The assistant coach Kenyatta Watson is no longer at the school. Sounds really fishy. Investigative report Monday night
Mine too. Been a dawg night since I’ve been alive!!!!!!!!!!
Hobnailboot aka RobG Doc R Greg Poole There are a couple channels on my directv that show it a lot so I watch more now than when it was current airing
Doc R Hobnailboot aka RobG Greg Poole It was one of the best ever
Bulldawg36 AT my house, EVERY night is DAWG night
Hobnailboot aka RobG Doc R Greg Poole I love that show
tmdawg12 I’ve been doing outside projects for 2 days, and feel like I’m about to have a heat stroke
No Dawg Night as such this, just the camps.
Their is no more dawg night
Been completely out of the loop the last few weeks…when was dawg night?
Doc R Greg Poole https://youtu.be/baJ_cOzOOfI
Bansai buckeroo you should definitely change your yard to Centipede
Goooooooooooooooooooo Dawgs!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh lord
yard work was a bad idea….
Not much comparison to me. Better school. Better chance to NFL. Better degree. And much better looking women
Greg Poole When I was young it always seemed to help me, haha.
LOL! There is a flesh eating bacteria in the water in South Carolina right now##
36 has been assigned to blow up all of the bridges over the Savannah River.
JaxDawg
Its my understanding CKS & CJC are going to ride with him to and from the University of CLEM.
Yep. Maybe Saturday night in Athens will help.
Yea fingers crossed he picks us but I think it’s very close
Phooey, but at least he is in Athens tonight.
So Lawrence is in fact in Athens today and will spend the night and head to Clemson tomorrow. They get the last visit
Doc R Yep!
rugbydawg79 true dat!
Doc R yeah man, if I had that stamp I could retire….oh wait!!!
Greg Poole The other part of that quote is: “But if they don’t score we’ll never lose”—-Erk
I think this is a matter of perception more than reality.
This has been looked into several times over the last few years. The average recruiting position for GA hashas been around 10th. When you rank overall records and average final ranking over the same period, Georgia is also around 10th.
I would agree however that the last few years, the program has underachieved but “Top-10 ” recruiting can easily still be 4th/5th in the SEC. That statement really should come with an asterisk.
bahits Doc R DawgDaddy Greg Poole doubt it, but would love to have that stamp
Greg Poole Walk much?
haws1178 Bulldawg36 That one has been on twice lately
Well I do agree with it, if we are only talking about the last three years
PTCDawg well said!
bahits Bulldawg36 We have lost a Heisman Trophy candidate every year for the last 3 years. If people want to ignore that they can, but would Alabama have won even the SEC last year without Derrick Henry? How would LSU have fared without Fournette? I would guess most teams would look like underachievers if they lost a Heisman caliber player.
On the other hand, I also think having great skill players but losing the line of scrimmage is also a factor . Just means our margin of error is much smaller than it should be. The Easons and Hardmans matter, of course, but I think it’s Ben Cleveland, Andrew Thomas, et al, that gets us to the next level.
bahits Thanks some don’t realize that most kids can’t even get in to UGA these days.
I like Leonard Warner’s Dad! Although the article tossing around the question about UGA academics bothers me a little. I know it is great, and I also know it doesn’t mean a hill of beans outside of your first job or two. It really doesn’t matter, if you love to learn and keep pushing yourself. (GT masters degree here) I suspect that is the angle several schools use… including my alma mater.
Either Georgia or Tech would give the kid incredible post school benefits, if he decides to stay in or around Georgia. Stanford, I don’t know. It wouldn’t be much of a benefit, if he came back home, but California is neat – minus the high taxes and nanny state politics.
Any way, I hope he chooses our Dawgs.
https://www.dawgnation.com/football/recruiting/4-star-lb-leonard-warner-torn-between-an-easy-decision-to-attend-georgia-and-the-right-decision-for-his-future
Academics wise, what does he want to study? Tech is better with a lot of engineering and possibly science. UGA is great in a whole lot of fields. The options are broader at UGA.
Doc R DawgDaddy Greg Poole do you think that thing will ever be worth anything like this other upside down mistake?
DawgDaddy Bulldawg36 ears?
Bulldawg36 No. We came within a hair of a national championship when we had Bama on the ropes in the SECc. We would have worked ND over just as easily as they did
Now, if you want a candidate for over rated, how about Notre Dame?
Greg Poole Can we just swap misery and the embarrassment of the hopefully heavily penalized Ole Miss?
Hobnailboot aka RobG You know, sort of like what Auburn does EVERY day
Hobnailboot aka RobG basically they had a couple staff members who were doing work for 2 football players, including writing 10 papers for them, and a few other things
Here is a NOLA.com article that argues SEC should poach OU and OS if the B12 expands. Of course, that position ignores the economic of expansion for the SEC. It will not happen.
http://www.nola.com/lsu/index.ssf/2016/07/when_the_big_12_expands_so_sho.html
Greg Poole that’s like as many as GT had total, isn’t it??
Bansai buckeroo those 2 cups and a string just don’t have the same effect
DawgDaddy Greg Poole since it’s probably a “participation trophy”, who cares?
This must be Rob pick on Bansai day…. 🙂
Not that I am aware of, could be though.
I hope it wasn’t the win over Florida
JaxDawg I kind of doubt it after that tweet earlier.
Bulldawg36 Not necessarily, it depends on what you say is over rated. To be picked an fail miserable like gtu or AU last year is what I call over rated. To be picked but still make it to a bowl – not so much.
Of course opinions are like some other things, everyone has one.
And you had to ask Sarah to connect you with the diner
I love the Dawgs but it’s kinda hard to argue with consistent top ten recruiting classes and not much to show besides a couple division titles.
Do you agree with it?
Is Lawrence on campus today?
Bulldawg36 Saw that yesterday, I think Greg posted the link.
Big lead said UGA was the most overrated cfb team in the last ten years. Sorry can’t post it from the tablet.
Who are all those old guys in that photo? Dang.. time flies…..
Bulldawg36 GATA!
Goooooooooooo Georgia Bulldawgs baby!!!!!!!!
Greg Poole I think I worked with that guy! lol
Nice….RobG…nice…I will remember that….. 🙂
Lucky…I’m mowing up until Christmas….
Good morning DD!

Hobnailboot aka RobG lol
Hobnailboot aka RobG
Ask tmdawg12 to translate.
tmdawg12 Yep, good one.
Yeah,that was before the phone….
Well I just made myself feel really stupid trying to understand all that legal mumbo jumbo
Greg Poole tmdawg12 but they are away at sandy creek…that might be good
I can remember a time when I knew more than my phone…. 🙂
Greg Poole tmdawg12 cartersville….they only have 3 away games this year
DawgDaddy Greg Poole Isn’t Cat holding one of the new fangled tablet computers? He makes it look like my tiny cell phone.
Greg Poole Go Dawgs!
Greg Poole Spoken like a true defensive genius. Love Erk!
Greg Poole Justin did that often.
Blind squirrel……. 🙂
Greg Poole I’m sure the coaches loved the flip into the EZ.
Bansai buckeroo Lucky guess.
Greg Poole 2 big ole boys right there.
tmdawg12 Where is the game?
Here is another problem with CBB recruiting:

What did they do wrong and WHO did it I wonder
Dash’s offensive line storylines for fall camp:
https://uga.rivals.com/news/fall-camp-storylines-offensive-line
Bansai buckeroo It’s official, August 1. We don’t have the times yet though
Gumps probs
I haven’t heard a date but Aug 1st being a Monday might be a good date….maybe Top has heard something…
Looks like Gumps or Gators for him
With Jacoby giving Bama some love, we need some good news…
Let’s do this!! He would be a HUGE addition to this class
when does practice start
Greg Poole Love that idea….but lets wait and surprise someone with this….Vols or Ole Miss. Let Chubby get 100% and we will have many Defensive Coordinators with sleepless nights trying to stop this package. Great mismatches with the talent we have accumulated at the TE position!!!!

tmdawg12 Morning tmd12
tmdawg12 Morning, Sir
morning everyone
Dawgnation89 That was quite a discussion you had there. Luckily, you are both in agreement.
haws1178 Greg Poole First, you’ll have to find one who acknowledges football was played before 1990. That does greatly reduce if not eliminate finding one. Because until SOS arrived, nobody would admit to being a gator fan. Easier to find a Merritt Island Mustang or Ft Pierce Central Cobra fan in the late 80’s.
Greg Poole haws1178 Given my options I will continue my efforts to talk with the Miami guys. The odds of finding a rational gator fan in Florida are slim to none
Greg Poole haws1178 Unless they’re playing FSU, UF, Notre Dame, or a Top-5 opponent, you can buy a seat on the 30 yard line for a song.
Bulldawg36 Time to rough em up in Cola City. 92′ and 06′ were the last years we went off on em in the Chicken Coop.
haws1178 There is no such thing as a Miami fan in the SEC sense of the term.
haws1178 Jesse1 Bulldawg36 A few Not complaining about 10 wins, but as an aside, probably good we had Ga Southern in the November sacrificial lamb spot as opposed to say Ga State. 😉 A few bad hops and 15′ would have been one of those years. Felt like it at times anyway. Mizzou, GSU, Barn, Atlanta Trade School. Not advocating we give back the wins, but even the 74′ team was fun to watch.
I’m down in gator country and haven’t seen the first Dawg fan outside of may family. I seen a guy decked out in the U gear and asked him how he felt about CMR and he had no idea what I was talking about. So much for conversating with the locals.
Done watched it 6 times… Don’t think I’ll watch it again. Ready to see us beat em down in 2016
Bulldawg36 GATA!
Jesse1 haws1178 Bulldawg36 I’ve seen seasons that would have us wishing for one like last year so I’m not going to complain to much. Hopefully we are in store for some brighter days
Have to line up properly though. Easy to have an ineligible receiver downfield. Or illegal formation. The diagram was a nice inclusion.
haws1178 Bulldawg36 The only time all year we embarrassed an enemy.
Bulldawg36 the USC game from last year was one of my favorite games.
He can drive it home with only one head light baby!!!!
I will watch it!!!!! Just not any 2015 games
https://twitter.com/UGAAthletics/status/756652556579987461
Goooooooo Georgia Bulldawgs!!!!!
Good Morning to Dawgs Everywhere!
Greg Poole Morning Greg
deltonadawg Morning dd
Greg Poole Johnsonville makes good stuff IMO.
Greg Poole Good luck Big John!
Greg Poole When I saw the thread title on The DawgBone this morning I had decided not to open it. I am glad you posted it here, very cool.
Greg Poole I think we do, there is so much talent at our TE position.
Greg Poole At least she got the big “refill” bucket.
Greg Poole Could just be a half brain guy.
Dawgnation89 Chauncey Manac. Big, strong and FAST! Should add another 20 – 25 pounds and will be a nightmare for opposing QBs!
Greg Poole
You got to admire the guy for being all-in chasing his dream.

Will UGA em[p-loy some version of the magic three in 2016?
http://bulldawgillustrated.com/time-magic-three-finally/
UGA is getting creative with Cam Akers’ recruitment:
http://bulldawgillustrated.com/pokemon-godawgs/
I hope he can realize his dreams
Former five-star Chris Casher is no longer at Florida State:

Here is an article on big John Krahn. He is a student at a prep school in Atlanta:
http://thechampionnewspaper.com/news/local/big-man-on-campus/
Johnsonville announced its three-year sponsorship of the SEC (Southeastern Conference) and SEC Network, as part of its brand strategy to grow in a part of the country not so familiar with the family-owned company based in Wisconsin.
“Johnsonville is a staple for passionate sports fans and tailgaters in the Midwest, but people in SEC-country aren’t as familiar with us,” said Ryan Pociask, Johnsonville’s Sr. Director of Marketing. “So, we’ll head south to witness the great traditions and rivalries first-hand, learn how fans do things in the SEC and see if the sausage our members make every day can earn a spot on those awesome tailgate spreads.”

Dawgnation89 Well, that sux but probably more money.
Good morning everyone
Greg Poole Dawgnation89 Working night shift through August 15th no days off!
Greg Poole GOOD MORNING!!!
Good Morning!
Dawgnation89 Ridley is a good choice and Michael Chigbu has the look of a kid who can make major strides in 2016.
Dawgnation89 Wow, You’re up early – or late.
75tranzam Dawgnation89 Well unfortunately I got busy at work for a short bit. When i get busy its not a good thing for my site.
Dawgnation89 Well done my friend!
Dawgnation89 You’ve got a lot more things you can do.
Just post random “Hunker Down you hairy Dawgs!”, update us with what you’re doing or where you’re at or just add a lot of !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! points at the end of your posts!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OK OK I cant keep going! hahah, I am so bored at work on nights its unreal! Someone needs to wake up and get on before I go crazy!!!!
Dang Dawg I like it!
Yes Nation. Eason is going to throw 3 TDs, and Imac is going to return the opening kickoff back.
Really, Dawg?
I think its going to be 28-3.
What kind of lead do you think we will have at the end of the 1st Quarter, Dawg?
Well they will both play but we are going to jump out to a massive lead before the 1st quarter is over, so we will rest them and let them ease back into play.
But Dawg, what about Chubb and Michel?
That’s good insight there Nation. I’m looking for Holyfield to have 100+ yard game against UNC!
Thats a good question Dawg, I think Riley Ridley explodes on the scene in a big way for us! I am also hoping we break the CC curse and wims shows out too.
So guys who do you think will be our biggest surprise player this year?
Working night sucks! I think i am just going to talk to myself on here to pass the time…
