2017 RECRUITING HOT BOARD
updated as of 04-19-2016 at 02:30 PM ET
Lucas Rogers Greg Poole Bulldawg Bob2 That settles it – DAWG
TtownDawg Most freshmen will enroll for summer in the first week of June.
Greg Poole Avon Barksdale I think so too… Wynn is an elite Guard. Would not surprise me to see Gaillard see A LOT of PT this year. Had great spring
RumRunnerDoogie Heath Holland Bulldawg Bob2 Lucas Rogers damn Rum lol
What’s the deadline for the remainder of the 2016 class to enroll?
Greg Poole Lucas Rogers Bulldawg Bob2 he put up a snapchat of a Bama headrest today 😉
Heath Holland RumRunnerDoogie Bulldawg Bob2 Lucas Rogers im sure a strong breeze will just blow u away so no issues there
Avon Barksdale Tyler Catalina will come in and vie for a start on the o-line at tackle. He is good. He has to stay healthy and get the playbook down, but he is a very smart player.
Lucas Rogers Bulldawg Bob2 Greg Poole Drob!!!!
Heath Holland ronaldo77 so many good LB this class
Bulldawg Bob2 Greg Poole Ding Ding
ronaldo77 UGA or Bama. Id say Bama. Think one school gets him and the other gets Walter Grant.
Greg Poole I think Malik Herring is one.
Greg Poole Maybe one a day can announce for the next week and a half.
Avon Barksdale Don’t think so – Catalina is going to get a hard look and is familiar with the position.
Heath Holland Lucas Rogers yep
ronaldo77 I haven’t talked to him in awhile. I need to text him. I know he visited this past week
Lucas Rogers Clemson had a pretty good lead before the staff changes. Wants to commit after junior season
Is Leonard Warner an odd man out this year? Only ask since he goes to my old high school
I’m still waiting on those 10 silents
After G-Day how do you guys feel about the o-line? I’m starting to wonder if Wynn doesn’t wind up winning that LT spot outright…
Lucas Rogers agree, he will be a big get
Another guy UGA made big moves is with Justin Mascoll. Reallly need to get him in the 2018 class. #2 player in Georgia and is a great player. He really like Lorenzo and always talks about him. Told me he doesn’t have a top list but UGA is up there
BenKellam Heath Holland Lucas Rogers Bulldawg Bob2 Aye. Georgia’s 2016 d-line class was unreal.
Bulldawg Bob2 1mandawgpack Georgia’s offense is going to look a lot like Alabama’s and you don’t see too many scat backs there
Lucas Rogers Talked with briefly and he was another prospect blown away by G-Day. He had a really good visit over the weekend.
RumRunnerDoogie Score Check Bulldawg Bob2 he is
Lucas Rogers Score Check been having a super good spring
1mandawgpack McFarland is more similar to Thomas Brown or J.J. Green than Sony Michel.
Score Check Lucas Rogers UGA is his leader now, and he is a dawg fan at heart so I like the chances
RumRunnerDoogie Score Check Bulldawg Bob2
Thanks
1mandawgpack not similar to either really. Sony is 5’11 and prolly 210
Lucas Rogers Bulldawg Bob2 Heath Holland Avon Barksdale Yeah. I got a up close and personal view of that one. You could here the crack of the pop pretty well lol
Score Check Bulldawg Bob2 I kind of feel malik herring is close to committing
Lucas Rogers
I agree!
ronaldo77 Heath Holland hes a scat back… staff seems to want bigger dudes for this class. 5’8 165 lbs. But I think hes a good ball player, has an unreal gas pedal.
He would be more similar to Sony than TG3
Bulldawg Bob2 Score Check
I have put Drob out of my mind if/and until he actually shows up in the summer.
Who is likely our next 2017 commit?
ronaldo77 Heath Holland Unfortunately, he may be a casualty of the staff change over, but he and McGee have talked. His recruitment is far from over.
I really like McFarland, but if UGA misses on him, they should be OK. The running back class for 2017 is very deep though.
Avon Barksdale Saw Wimms up close – in fact, saw all of the recruits – he is a big boy.
Another guy UGA really needs to get on board is Jeremiah Holloman
Bulldawg Bob2 Score Check D-Rob or Holloman imo. Watch Demery if can get him on campus soon
Heath Holland BenKellam Lucas Rogers Bulldawg Bob2 Oh man I didn’t realize all those guys were in state.
And that’s without Wims, Woerner, Simmons, and possibly D-Rob….not to mention Mr 8 yards per carry! Hell I could play QB with all those weapons!
BenKellam Heath Holland Lucas Rogers Bulldawg Bob2 was just talkin bout in-state guys, yeah it was nasty nationwide too
Avon Barksdale Jamyest impressed me and Lucas last yr at Dawg Night, but his best position is RB. I would take Terrell, Gibbs, and Poole over him without a doubt.
Score Check Could very well be D-Rob on May 2nd or a 2018 prospect.
Bulldawg Bob2 Lucas Rogers Heath Holland Avon Barksdale you see him truck that guy late in the 4th? lol
Heath Holland BenKellam Lucas Rogers Bulldawg Bob2 Gary. Even though he didn’t end up near here.
Greg Poole lecounte is very committed to the G..BOOM
