SCHEDULED DECISION ANNOUNCEMENTS

List of prospects who have scheduled announcements.The percentage is my confidence on a recruit committing to listed school.

Dec. 27th, 8:00 p.m. – Cam Akers – 2017 RB (early enrollee) – 55% FSU, but don’t count out LSU, Mississippi State, or Ole Miss. UGA has an outside shot here, but not likely.

 

Announcements at the Under Armour All-American Game:

Jan. 1st – DeAngelo Gibbs – 2017 DB (early enrollee) – 95% UGA

Jan. 1st – Xavier McKinney – 2017 DB (early enrollee) – 95% Clemson

 

Announcements at the U.S Army All-American Game:

Jan. 7th – Jeffrey Okudah – 2017 DB (early enrollee) – 90% Ohio State

 

No Scheduled Announcements:

Could announce before January 1st:

Tray Bishop – 2017 DB – Decommitted from Auburn on Tuesday 12/13. 75% he flips to UGA, but Florida is also a possible landing spot.

Eric Stokes Jr. – 2017 CB – 95% sure he picks UGA if there is room, but I’m 50/50 on if there is an open spot for him at the moment.

Leonard Warner – 2017 ILB – 95% UGA. He could wait till NSD to announce his decision, but I don’t think he will.

Most likely will announce after January 1st:

Markaviest Bryant – 2017 WDE. 95% UGA. He could announce anytime between now and NSD.

Breon Dixon – 2017 LB – 75% Ole Miss, 20% Tennessee, 5% UGA. He could announce anytime between now and NSD.

Nico Collins – 2017 WR – 60% Michigan, 30% Alabama, 10%UGA. Collins announced on Monday that he will wait till Feb. 1st, NSD to announce his decision.

Aubrey Solomon – 2017 DT – 50/50 Michigan-Georgia battle. He could announce his decision during US Army All-American game on January 7th or wait till NSD.

Ameer Speed – 2017 CB – 90% Virginia Tech, 10% UNC. He could announce anytime between now and NSD.

Tyler Taylor – 2017 ILB – 50% UGA, 35% Oklahoma, 15% Auburn. He could announce anytime between now and NSD.

Tamorrion Terry – 2017 WR – Likely headed to JUCO or Prep.

    Impressive interview from Tucker via the ajc. Really quite amazing!. I don’t have a link but it’s probably been posted.

    I really liked what he said. AFAIAC….he hit it out of the park.

  3. MMCSDAWG

    In case I haven’t said it before. I also coached Ameer Speed in pop warner for 3 or 4 years. Same team as Tyreke Johnson. Those were some good teams. Made it to nationals in Orlando before losing to south Florida team twice. Anyway my son who played with Ameer saw him this past weekend. He have him a go Dawgs! I don’t believe he has a commitable offer from us right now though really good kid played DE for us back in the day.

    2. Rescue Dawg

      Wow! That’s awesome. I firmly believe that if you can coach successfully at one level you can or could coach at any. You guys touched some lives no doubt.

      It’s only football. But a door for many.

    5. Bansai Buckeroo

      Had the the 45 when I was about 12 or 13. Might have been the first record I bought….. 🙂

  7. dawgmum2.0

    Finally! Formerly dawgmum, now dawgmum2.0. For some reason, I could never get the confirmation email so I could post. I finally got the bright idea to use my work email, and here I am. Glad to be back. I deleted the dawgmum account, so at some time, I may remove the 2.0; who knows? Meanwhile, tl/dr I’m sure.

      1. Bulldawg Bob

        He’s listed as an athlete but plays mainly WR. Classbof 2019, and he’s already 6-4 and 200 lbs. Reminds some of Michael Bennett.

  12. Bulldawg Bob

    Just had a double-decker salted caramel Moon Pie with an RC Cola. Did not know they made more than one flavor of Moon Pie.

    1. DawgDaddy

      I remember when I was a boy (a long, long time ago) they had the chocolate and a yucky banana one too.

      1. Bulldawg Bob

        This is a neat store we popped into. Has a lot of cool “retro” stuff but about half of the store is dedicated to Moon Pies and RC Cola.
        And yep. They got that funky banana flavored Moon Pie too lol

  13. Rescue Dawg

    Besides wanting to see Clemson and Bama, followed by Ohio State getting rubbed out in the playoffs, seeing Pedd State destroyed in the rose bowl would also be delightful.

  17. MMCSDAWG

    I’m definitely having a rough day. No BI on my computer here at work is killing me lol. I’ll get it figured out sooner or later but in the mean time following along on my phone.

      1. MMCSDAWG

        Yeah thanks. I’m waiting for my IT guy to get back off leave the end of this week. If he’s not able to hook me up then I’ll definitely be looking to do something else.

  21. RumRunnerDoogie

    according to michel who has taken over the uga football snapchat its both chubb and bellamy’s birthday

  24. RobDawg

    Man it happens sooner every year…. it’s 363 days till Christmas and people around here already have their decorations up

  28. Rescue Dawg

    So Akers is expected to commit to FSU according to most rumors. If that holds up, that may open up a door for UGA with regards to Lingard.

    It appears to me that White is trending towards Clemson. If this is true, UGA may need Lingard to keep the tradition of signing a premier back next season.

    Lingard is rumored to favor FSU and Miami. If FSU gets Akers, he might look closer at Miami. I think Miami is headed for the cliff and could be in turmoil.

    Lingard doesn’t appear to like UF, so this could be an opportunity to obtain his services over the 3 in-state schools. He is right down the road from Jax also.

    1. Joseph Kennedy

      You will have to rescue me if white signs with Clem&son. We need the Zeus !!!!!!!!! I hate clump and son!!!!!!!

    2. Sports Dashboard

      I have experienced the opposite this morning. One female who is doing like those above and 4 males looking like the one on the right. lol

      I have slipped off into my study… and will go cut wood in a minute. lol

  41. PTCDawg

    According to my magic 8 ball we DO pick up Collins along with our other 5 main targets…and we lose Wyatt…bringing our class total to 25. Our average commit rating ends up at .9408 which is 2nd in the nation and 1st in the SEC.

    This would mean 16 of our 25 commits have a player rating of 94 and up (and a 17th is .0009 away).

    While there are obviously other factors, I believe getting the best players is the best predictor of championships. The future is so bright we will have to wear shades.

        2. BroDawg

          Losing Wyatt could mean the staff has relaxed communication with him because they have someone else on the hook… but I haven’t seen anything saying he is jumping back in with the chickens

    1. Joseph Kennedy

      Hope Athlons is right. But ya know we have trouble stopping mobile QBs. If Chubb and michel can run on the TCU defense then I like our chances

  48. MMCSDAWG

    Someone with computer savvy help me…. is there a way too get around this damned Internet monitoring agent crap they have blocking me from my lifeblood here at work now. I can load the BI pages. Just no commenting sections load

    1. BroDawg

      The secret is safe with their Director of Football Secrets who reports to the Director of Football Secrets Keeper aligned under the Director of Football Secret Development ###

    Testes, testes, 1, 2, 3… hehe! Beavis and Butthead! $20k will get ya like… 20k points with the AA. I think my math was right there. 😉
