    Bansai buckeroo Yep they did. Dawgnation Daily last week said Mama got on ship and was supportive of the Blue.

    Hey guys, funny story. I was on yesterday’s recruiting page for about the last 45 minutes.

    DawgDaddy  Here is the tell on the Solomon deal. The next day after he committed, his Mom was quoted as saying it was a “soft-commit”. The use of that term meant that she had been talking to someone about his surprise Michigan love. After all, I seriously doubt that she is a recruitnik who uses that word commonly in her discourse. So, she had been talking to someone (Georgia) about getting him to come to his senses.
    At least, that was how I read it.

    Bansai buckeroo  Of course, you are right. I was using Kim’s post to point out that Michigan’s snafu gave the Solomon’s an excuse to plug the plug.

    Not gonna lie, those AJC reporters had me sold on that ship having sailed. I will never doubt you again sir!

    Greg Poole Hmmm.  3 Deep here but 2 Deep from above!  Were they both at same event or just listening for what “They” wanted to hear?

    Kudos to the SEC king QB. When you had 2 minutes and needed a TD, Murray got it done. DGD!

    Based on other comments throughout the night and in a radio interview conducted shortly before his speech, it seems likely those final two will be fifth-year senior Greyson Lambert and true freshman Jacob Eason. Late during his half-hour-plus remarks, Smart included Eason in his breakdown of freshmen or first-year players who are currently in the two-deep. And beforehand he told David Johnston of Athens radio station WRFC-AM 960 The Ref that Lambert’s experience is “very valuable at that position to help in these games,” referring specifically the Sept. 3 nationally-televised matchup against North Carolina.

    “It’s not a major ankle (injury), it’s not a high ankle,” said Smart on the radio show, according to the http://onlineathens.com/sports/college-sports/2016-08-22/elijah-holyfields-famous-father-hoping-speedy-recovery-son. “It’s not as bad as (tight end) Charlie Woerner’s was. We think he’ll be back by the end of the week. He’s out there pushing on it right now. It’s not a major deal.”
