I can tell you Justin comes from a great family.  His father is the police officer at our high school and is not only a great role model for Justin but for all the kids.  I have a 10th & 11th grader there.

This is not some crazy family.  So just stop that angle.

You don’t have to be a bad person to handle this type situation badly. I’m not saying his parents are bad people, heck I don’t know them, but what I’m saying is they are the adults and could’ve handled much better than it’s been handled. I would expect a 18-19 year old to handle this like it’s been but I would expect more out of 35-40 year old adult

He hasn’t said anything. Do yall think he leaked the story? LOL it’s not his fault. But he has a chance to clean this mess up

If he didn't want the story leaked he could have spoken out already instead of sitting on his ***

Even with all the insider love for him to UGA, like it's a done deal, I've actually seen more recent CBs sending to Alabama still than to UGA (this being the onnly one...so far)

Both sides are pushing extremes, yourself included. You've never been able to talk about Fields in anything other than extremes. 

 

What extreme am I pushing with regards to Justin transferring or not? Please stay on topic.

All of the EXTREME in this thread right now is everyone ready to devour Justin Fields because he is thinking about transferring and some media type posted it.

Everyone knew that a kid as talented as Justin Fields might transfer - he didn’t invent the QB transfer.

You may not be aware but there are two signing days the one on Wednesday is the 1st day you can sign someone- not the last.

Amazing how quick a fanbase can turn on a player.

I’m aware of the two signing periods. But Justin doesn’t have to decide before those days have come and gone. I haven’t turned  on Fields. I would love for him to want to stay and ball out at Georgia. But if the kid doesn’t want to be here then good-bye and I hope all the best for him.

It doesn't belong in here, thank you.

Your extreme is no matter what this kid ***** gold in your eyes. He can do no wrong. If you really think this is bad timing on his part idk what to tell you.

What specifically has been handled to your dissatisfaction that is 100% true and verified?

Not let it get leaked out like it has before signing day. Duh.

Look i’m not here to disparage him, but you change your mind about what your going to do this weekend or what your going to eat. Any kid that thinks your going to be given anything in major collegiate athletics or professional sports is fooling themselves.  A little adversity and hard work never hurt anyone and may be what he needs to really reach his potential. 

No. Kids change their minds all the time. A lot of them change majors multiple times during college.

You mean like all the recruiting leaks that we all check for every day and 10 times a day?

The fact that it’s even a thing right now screams someone in his family has talked.  Now who talked? Who knows but this isn’t how Eason’s transfer happened and they are very comparable. Someone in his “circle” is talking and my suspicion is it’s an adult.

For incoming recruits.. not existing players that still aren’t sure.. and may not be.. for.. a.. while

Again, you have what seems like a personal attachment to the kid.. doesn’t matter what he does or doesn’t do.. its 100% right in your eyes..

the timing of this is bad.. the fact that it got “leaked” is bad.. the fact that this “rumor” has never been squashed all year long is bad.. being that every time we feel safe, this same rhetoric pops up wreaks of drama.. not a fan of drama.. 

The timing of the rumor is not good. Could very well effect some recruits decision. Im not blaming Fields but like they say...timing is everything.

Ehh it's relevant to the discussion because if he is out then we need a QB immediately and it could have some effect on Haselwood.

I just don't know why folks are getting heated with one another in here about it. We shouldn't be fighting with each other about a story that isn't even progressed past the state of being a rumor.

I have yet to say anything bashing the kid, quite simply, because this whole thing is complicated.

Saying the kid or his family isn't right, but it isn't necessarily wrong either, the same rings true for praising him. That's your problem. You are 100% incapable of impartiality when it comes to Fields. He's a great kid who will do great things, and anything else that shows otherwise is caused by someone else, at no fault of his own. That's you, and that's always been you since the beginning. You can't see it because of those glasses permanently glued to your head, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. That's what friends and loved ones do. It just leaves you crazy biased is all.

The same is true for many others, that are only capable of looking at this as a fan of UGA, without recognizing that there's a kid's future at stake here, and important family matters going on in the background.

Both are true, and both are wrong.

Um go back 100 pages or so.. I was tired of the drama a while back.. 

but again don’t act like you’re innocent.. you’ve been the pot for a while now

So again, you are mad at Fields for a leak that he might transfer getting out?  A leak that wasn’t likely placed by Fields not his immediate family.

247 was getting crazy out of hand with all this ****. They made an official Fields thread.

The timing of this leak couldn't have been better. Saban must be proud of himself.
