UGA Football Recruiting 453 Comments

Author /

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.

    dsw61 PatriotVeteran MMCSDAWG 1mandawgpack  He was passed out and the engine was running, and the only reason that he was stopped is because he passed out with his foot on the brake.  He’s very lucky that he didn’t roll into an approaching car in that intersection.

    Six Carolina defensive starters from a year ago will be back, including potential All-ACC stars DT Nazair Jones and DB’s Donnie Miles, M.J. Stewart and Des Lawrence. But the defense clearly played off the emotions of senior linebacker Jeff Schoettmer a year ago, and finding a similar leader will be vital, especially in what will surely be an emotional home-state opener for Georgia fans.
    Whether Georgia running back Nick Chubb turns out to be ready for the season opener or not – he’s coming off knee surgery that derailed his impressive start in 2015 after just five games – the Heels will show up with a lot of rushing talent of their own in Elijah Hood, Khris Francis and TJ Logan, all running behind one of the most experienced offensive lines in the ACC.
    The ‘Dawgs will be favored whether Chubb plays or not. But I can’t help but be haunted by that 2015 South Carolina game all over again: a chance for the Heels to steal an upset and get some much-needed National Championship-talk, if only for one week.
    Well, I ain’t ‘fraid of no ghost.

    Bulldawg36  I agree with Greg that Sony should be back from his broken arm by the UNC game and accordingly, Douglas won’t be our feature back.  That said, even if he was, I still think we run the ball successfully against them as they really struggled stopping the run last year and I think our OL will be much improved over last year with Pittman.  Douglas isn’t going to break any long runs, but if our OL is punching UNC in the mouth and then Douglas was dishing out punishment with his running style, I think we’d run wild on them in the 2nd half as we start to wear them down.

  7. Greg Poole

    1mandawgpack Yep, UGA gets an official and is a contender. Chandler will commit to UGA on the spot unless he gets a high profile offer before the Georgia offer come – and he may.

    PatriotVeteran MMCSDAWG 1mandawgpack The police report said that the engine was running and he was blocking an intersection. Sounds like he passed out behind the wheel.

  9. 1mandawgpack

    PTCDawg 1mandawgpack Greg Poole  I think he recently said that we’d definitely get 1 of his 5 officials.  He was also very complementary of the unofficial he took to Athens earlier this year.  While there is a lot of competition, I like our chances for these types of recruits (i.e., highly ranked, out of state players) moreso that I ever have with our current staff.  Also, with 4 stud OL committed for 2016, Pittman can now “put all his eggs in one basket” if he so desires with Wilson (with a contingency plan or 2 in place if we really want/need to sign 5 OL in this class) without it killing our class if we don’t sign him

    MMCSDAWG 1mandawgpack Pressure can  make someone want to hide by getting drunk, but he has had a problem and UGA supposedly is helping.    He was asleep in his car, so I assume he pulled over and turned off his engine.     Too bad to hear he has a problem but CKS is being reasonable and wants to help someone that really needs help.      He has to take the help offered seriously or CKS shouldn’t play him.     He should have done well this year and if he can end his alcohol problem, he should be given a chance to redeem himself by training hard, staying away from bars, working on the playing field and competing.    His teammates will carry him, if… he will do his part.     I truly wish him well and hope, he recovers fully, for the good of himself, his family and the Dawgs.     GO DAWG

    Bulldawg36 Nah. One thing Lambert is good at is the short passes. Play a bunch of tight ends and have a de facto running game with them that exploits UNCs youth at RB. Also Sony still has two months to recover from the broken arm.

  18. Doc R

    AlphaDawg Greg Poole except for the 15 years between Stallings title and Nick’s—-couldn’t find the guy for 15 years!!!!!!

  20. Doc R

    Bansai buckeroo well they had less than 75 pounds of it, so that was just considered “residue” in Auburn

  21. Bulldawg36

    Jake Rowe said on the ref that if Douglas is the featured back vs unc then UGA will probably lose. I think I tend to agree with em some. It will definitely be a lot tougher to pull out the victory

  26. AlphaDawg

    PTCDawg AlphaDawg Bulldawg36 It takes some time getting used to, but I prefer craft beers over wine every day

  28. BenKellam

    Bulldawg36 I’ve never liked it. Steven A is a moron and Skip would always pick the wrong opinion just to get attention and start an argument with whoever else was on the show. He’s just a troll. Haven’t tried watching it since they left though.

  31. RumRunnerDoogie

    Greg Poole doing something like that for a game is one thing, but for a media day? Its so cringy

  33. PTCDawg

    AlphaDawg Bulldawg36 have yet to come across a red wine that I think is even remotely drinkable. was reminded of that last night when we tried the Marsala wine we used to make a wonderful Chicken Marsala. Just awful.

  34. AlphaDawg

    Bulldawg36 hear hear! Fill up my glass with some more of that that adult kool-aid kind sir!

  37. Bulldawg36

    We will finish with the *1 recruiting class in America!!!!!!!!!!!!! Let’s go!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  38. PTCDawg

    fwiw…and it isnt much…according to their website the 247 composite ranking is”a proprietary algorithm that compiles prospect “rankings” and “ratings” listed in the public domain by the major media recruiting services”. 

    So they wont say how the computation takes place but it does appear they use numerical ratings and rankings and not a star assignment. That eliminates the arbitrary definition of what a ‘5 star’ is. I think it also puts us in the running to catch OSU.

    Greg Poole *fan since 2008
    **Grand pappy was a bear bryant fan so “he’s been one his whole life”

  45. MMCSDAWG

    1mandawgpack Me too!  I don’t care if he plays a down of football this season, I like the fact that we are trying to help him!

  46. 1mandawgpack

    Greg Poole  I’m certainly not rooting against this young man, but would love for our final OL to be that 5* road grater from NJ (I think).
