Greg is closing in on 15 years writing about and photographing UGA sports. While often wrong and/or out of focus, it has been a long, strange trip full of fun and new friends.

    Bulldawg Bob2 So, in fact, they can take all who qualify and worry about the numbers after NSD. Of course, it is never going to be a big problem because, even with the increased awareness about grades and the benefits of EE, very few will have the discipline to do it. I know I would not have had it.

    Greg Poole I read the rules and I even talked to a guy that works for a compliance office at another school, and it is a “grey” area and confusing. 

    The early enrollees are supposedly limited by the scholarship count of the roster, but the overall signing class with those players that sign LOI’s on NSD or between NSD and April 1st can exceed the maximum 85 scholarships for spring semester. 

    Programs actually have till August to get the roster to 85 or below.

    FYI…This “Monkey Shoulder” Scotch whiskey is pretty darn good. Has a nice vanilla note to it and is pretty smooth.

    Bulldawg Bob2 Not arguing, Bob, just a question – are you sure about the limit being based on 85 scholarships for the spring semester? The reason I ask is that they can over sign in February and have until June to get the number down to 85. I thought that applied for the entire spring semester.

  5. Bulldawg Bob2

    CLTDawg Lucas Rogers The number of scholarship early enrollees a program can have is determined by how many players are on scholarship on the roster at the end of the semester in December.

    For example, if there are 80 scholarship players on the roster due to seniors graduating, players transferring, ect, then a school could take up to 5 early enrollees. The number of early enrollees cannot put the school’s roster above the maximum 85 scholarship limit.

    As far as back counting, that is a complicated formula because it can be cumulative going back several signing classes. 

    But Georgia has the potential to sign around 30 scholarship players for the class of 2017.

    Thanks.
    Sorry to hear she had to go through that but glad she got a good report.

    20% chance of rain on April 16th!!!! Hoping the rain stays away!! I’ll tough it out anyways!!!!

    College football has been played for 146 years. In that entire time there have been four coaches in the history of the game who have won at least 145 games in their first 15 seasons, and one of them did it for my team, and he did it while representing my team with the utmost of honor and integrity. Like everyone else I will cheer as hard as I can for Kirby to have great success but will never do so while casting stones at the one who set the stage at this program to give him the opportunity to take that next step.

    Yes it was Great news. Yes she did have major surgery but could have been much worse and she will completely recover.

  10. RumRunnerDoogie

    Greg Poole UGA didnt sign all available spots either so thats some that can back count

  11. Greg Poole

    That’s great news, bud. We’ll, I guess it is not great but could have been very bad.

  12. converted 1981

    Good morning bb2. Guess who is back????? Saw where your Wife is doing better, so glad to hear. Went through a rough span last Nov/Dec with my Wife. They diagnosed her with advanced Ovarian Cancer. Her surgery was in Dec, they took a 7lb. Tumor out of her. Doctor came out of surgery “early” and gave s a great Surprise, during the surgery they found out it was Not Cancer. The Doc was in tears, said she had never been able to give one of her patents such Good News. Wife is still recovering from an intense surgery but she will completely recover with nothing else to worry with.

  13. Greg Poole

    It’s way to hard for me to figure out. Depends on how many of the 2016 class are initial counters.

  14. converted 1981

    Maybe they should have combined two questions from above about the QB’s. And CMR. The Real question should have been would CMR still be here IF he would have recruitted/signed Watson out of GHS………….. I have often wondered if Bobo did not Know what was/was not in the QB cupboard when he jumped ship.Can’t help but wonder what De Shaun would have done for UGA. Might of been Worse##### CKS. May have ended up somewhere elze.

  15. Greg Poole

    Every recruit can be an EE. There are no limits. There are limits on the number that can count back.

  16. CLTDawg

    Bulldawg Bob2 is T. Carter an EE for 2017? 

    How many EEs can UGA take at this point (I know it could change depending on what we start the season with)?

    What UGA targets besides Lecounte and Fromm are EEs?

  17. Bulldawg Bob2

    Russell, looks like you are using an older Livefyre acct that you deleted or maybe you accidentally deleted. You can reregister at Livefyre or contact Livefyre and see if the can undelete and reactive that acct.

  18. DawgByte

    Bulldawg36 If McGarity can’t get that done with Nike before the start of the season he should be sacked!#

  19. deleted_102561659_RussellHall_91

    Aye. Hope he can really make an impact this year up front for the Dawgs. Georgia needs a big dude to be a rock at nose on the d-line

  20. RobDawg

    I like him if nothing else besides after that first long TD and the trailing teammate tried to do the celebration chest bump jumping thing he seemed to say “nah that’s ok” and just patted the team mate on helmet. Class…. you either have it or don’t

  21. PatriotVeteran

    DawgByte Bulldawg Bob2     Let’s face it, the DAWGS will be fired up to compete and beat the SC chicken wings.     Muschamp knows he won’t beat UGA but his players will try twice as hard, to prove their coach is a winner.     BEAT  the CHICKEN WINS of South Carolina.

  22. PatriotVeteran

    Bulldawg Bob2 AlphaDawg     BB2 – If he (Carter)  COMMITS TO THE G – ASAP, than I may believe him.   If he’s just talking, than maybe he realizes the challenge he made to the UGA Fans, who would love to have a new RB that will really attempt to compete with the likes of Gurley.       This is the kind of player we need, those who believe in themselves and ready to compete to become a starter.     Less talk, COMMIT TO THE G and prove you can start at RB your first year, that would be a great starting point.    GO DAWG    – –  you’re what we want at UGA …. competitors.

  23. PatriotVeteran

    Dawgnation4 Bulldawg36       THAT’S the spirit  DN4, think positive and maybe, all these great players will show CKS, they’ve got his back and will join him in UGA (Drob, Stevens, Zeru, Gibbs and Ignont)  – it would be a joyous 93K GDay, for the FANS and TEAM.     GO DAWGS         LIVE IT GETTING EVEN BETTER – as great players COMMIT TO THE G

  24. PatriotVeteran

    godawgs678 Bulldawg Bob2     I BELIEVE his first name is pronounced:  WINNER, DETERMINED, COMPETITOR and DAWG READY.       GO DAWG       COMMIT TO THE G

  25. PatriotVeteran

    AlphaDawg Bulldawg Bob2 Bulldawg36     If UGA WANT THEM – they have to take advantage of the offer and COMMIT TO THE G – – so it’s possible for UGA to always have the Best RB’s in sets of 2.      The problem is Committing to the G.      There are going to be many great RB’s in 2017-18 and only a few slots will be open.        I hope the Best 2-3 COMMIT TO THE G  soonest, so the Best will be playing together on a UGA Team that has a lots going for them in the future.

    WAITING is what stops the best from coming to UGA.    CKS has to secure the total number of players in each SLOT, so those who COMMIT TO THE G – FIRST, will have a fan base that loves them and a TEAM that plays like everyone is Great, every day, and completes from day to day.     CKS wlll make UGA a powerhouse and those who jump on board will not be sorry they COMMITTED TO THE G.      GO DAWGS      LIFE IS GOOD AT UGA

  26. Bulldawg Bob2

    AlphaDawg Bulldawg36 Aye. I would be a very happy Dawg fan if that were to transpire.

  27. Bulldawg36

    I will be there at G day!!! I’m getting there about 8:00 am ! I’ve got to live it up! It will be my last one without a kid!!!!!!

  28. AlphaDawg

    Bulldawg Bob2 AlphaDawg Bulldawg36 I would think UGA takes two in 17 and 1, maybe 2 in 18.
    Would be nice:
    17: Carter & Sermon (sub Akers)
    18: Zeus

  29. Bulldawg Bob2

    AlphaDawg Bulldawg36 Correct.

    Toneil Carter is class of 2017 and Zamir “Zeus” White is class of 2018
