SCHEDULED DECISION ANNOUNCEMENTS

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

 

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.

    Sure seems like the ole UGA doom and gloom machine is in full flow this am, i dont understand why we worry about it. KEEP YOUR COOL ,THE DAWGS WILL RULE, aint no place better. GO DAWGS!!!!

    1. Score Check

      I agree
      Lots of sky is following despite Smart putting together arguably the best class we have ever had. I just don’t see us missing out on all of our remaining targets.
      Last week a ton of folks on this site had written off our chances with Wilson. LOL

    4. AlphaDawg

      Yes sir. People have been burned too many times. Kirby is slowing that down. You’ll never get everyone, too many factors come into play, but recruiting is one thing Kirby excels at.

  8. MMCSDAWG

    I’m hearing we may have lost a WR to injury at practice yesterday. If it’s true it’s a blow to a key starter. Rumor is R Ridley in a cast on his leg.

    2. Joseph Kennedy

      That’s why I’m predicting a TCU victory. We are beat up at inside backer and WR. Kirby should just see this game as a chance to get young guys playing time

    3. AlphaDawg

      That would not be good. I wonder if they got the jerseys mixed up because he was wearing 28 yesterday and 72 the other day?

  12. JaxDawg

    So I think we round out our class with Bishop, Warner, and another CB. Think Gibbs is headed to Alabama, along with Solomon and Collins. Bryant to Auburn.

    Also, I think Beal is going to flip to FSU.

    1. AlphaDawg

      I think we finish with
      Gibbs
      Bishop
      Rice
      Speed or Stokes for CB
      Bryant

      Maybe a surprise late January if we have another transfer

        1. AlphaDawg

          I think we had him hot for a while but things are really quiet now. Thought he may have already committed if he was going to. We’ve got his mom on our side which is good, but for some reason I feel like he just wants to play out of state. No real backing. The staff will make room for him if he wants to come.

    2. Score Check

      I think Gibbs and Bryant go to UGA. And I think its a toss up between UGA and Michigan for Collins and Solomon

    2. Greg Poole

      LOL – I googled the idea and all I got was Bama players praising Smart last summer – can’t imagine them harboring ill feeling and spontaneously injecting it into an interview – sounds like an interviewer leading the conversation.

      1. AlphaDawg

        I was thinking technically it’s just Humpherys who takes a shot at Kirby. Everyone else is just praising Pruitt. But here’s the golden question:
        How many would be so happy go lucky if they were 8-4? Everything is peachy when you’ve got no losses.

  14. Greg Poole

    Savannah and I are heading to Memphis before sunrise tomorrow. The plan is to get to the CKS presser at 1 CST then make it to the parade and pep rally on Beale Stree later tomorrow afternoon.
    We will be at the stadium by 8 AM Friday for the 11AM kickoff.Maybe there will be a Dawg Walk – we haven’t heard yet.
    If you are going to be there, give us a shout and we’ll put your photo in the gallery.

  18. Greg Poole

    Georgia commit Robert Beal, a four-star defensive end from IMG Academy, will take an unofficial visit to FSU in January, but says he is 100-percent solid to the Bulldogs.

    Some media covering Alabama and Georgia believe that the Tide have significantly closed the gap on Loganville (Ga.) Grayson four-star defensive back Deangelo Gibbs. Others believe Kirby Smart will close and lock Gibbs down. The consensus is that UGA and the Tide are the only true contenders.

    From: THE CROOTLETTER

    1. RobG

      I think he goes to Bama, they have very few S right now, and he says it’s all about PT…….hope I’m wrong

    2. JaxDawg

      Yup doesn’t look good for Gibbs or Beal, remember Kaindoh was Beal’s roommate at IMG. No reason to take another visit this late

      1. DawgnKing

        Yeah but if I remember right Beal did not stay the whole season at IMG maybe he and Kaindoh didnt get along too well###

  21. godawgs678

    I REALLY hope Monty Rice flips back to us. To be honest, I want him more than anyone else not named Solomon to round out this class. His 3 stars mean nothing. Guy is a true ILB. Here’s to hoping Kirby can work his magic!

      1. BroDawg

        A couple of pay click bait articles talking about him scheduling another visit to FSU and his commitment status.

  25. AlphaDawg

    Anyone found a setting to have replies auto load? Not new comments, but replies? It’s easy for me to pass over the new reply notification. Hard to notice.

  29. Rickpope2330

    Murnin leather heads! Just curious why do you always see recruits saying Georgia not showing much love or waiting on the Georgia offer? It seems being behind other programs on the offers kills us with some of these kids. Just my 2 cents

      1. Rickpope2330

        Not really referring to this class but saw a few for next year. I’ve looked through so many can’t remember who it was.

        1. AlphaDawg

          I hear ya. Yeah I believe Kirby and co seem to really focus and buckle down closer to that class’s signing period. For example. A lot of the top kids in GA are already committed elsewhere. That will change once they get more offers and more attention. We see that happen every year. We’ll see how this class finishes, but if Kirby putting more attention to closing the current class rather than jump starting the next class works, I’m on board. I just don’t like us being left at the alter on NSD

    3. Greg Poole

      They are not going to offer every kid, but you need to watch the ’18, ’19, ’20 kids for offers going out to targets early. Recruiting is not an area that worries me with CKS.

      1. AlphaDawg

        My same thoughts. I don’t see the room. We may have to turn Bryant down from what I’ve heard if we get Rice back in the mix.

    1. DawgDaddy

      CKS will get a quality QB, possibly one of the kids that have already committed to another school. Don’t count anyone out including Cade.

    2. DawgDaddy

      Good morning Greg! This site looks better and functions MUCH better than the last. They actually did you and us a favor by raising the rate to the stratosphere. lol
