Not great vision or balance, clunky cuts, and runs into contact frequently. He seems like a guy who could be an interesting third down back due to threat to catch and seemingly consistent positive yardage gained... But unlikely to deliver much in the way of home runs...

Sounds logical. Somewhere someone mentioned us taking as many as 6 OL? That seems high in a class that likely caps out at 22-23 at the most... Particularly with our needs elsewhere.

Yeah, the number that was thrown around on DL was "4" but I think that was explicitly for recruits categorized as interior DL. From there, it's likely 1-2 pure DE prospects with a chance that some of those interior prospects shift outside once they end up on campus. Link to post Share on other sites

Jake Rowe on 247 swapped emails with UGA, and basically what he was told was that there is no rule controlling how many players you can sign in a class over multiple classes. As far the "25" single class limit, he said that was basically fluid, and there were countless numerous factors (most if not all we are not privy to) affecting how closely teams had to adhere to that. Essentially, he said that the 85 rule is the only one that the NCAA really cares about and that the 25 rule is in place mostly just to keep teams from signing 30 players in a single cycle, and even if a team goes to 27 or 28, the NCAA tends to leave them alone as long as they stay under 85, and there are no other violations going on. What all this boils down to, is that if Kirby wants to take 25 (maybe even more) in this cycle, he absolutely can. Link to post Share on other sites

Just my impressions from first watch through fwiw. I'll need to see how he improves this coming season to be impressed, honestly. Just find it interesting that he has surfaced as a target. I don't know why we would go after him and not make Tank a priority. I am sky high on Tank. Rivals has him ranked the #1 athlete in the country and in line for a 5th star if he holds his ranking (he has moved up in the last 3 updates). 247 has him ranked top 50 nationally as a RB. Yet we have a bunch of fans acting like he's not that great and our standards are higher than him. It's ridiculous imo. Tank had a fantastic junior season, averaging more than 9 yards per carry on 238 carries and showing some potential as a receiving threat as well. Maybe the staff feels they can slow play the in-state kid while they pursue these national recruits. I don't know. Tank is a great football player and might be the best skill position player in the state for 2020. The staff will pursue Evans until the end and I don't have a problem with that if they like their chances. I'd be over the moon happy with Milton and Tank though. I don't see much difference in the 3 to be honest and I really feel like we're letting a great player in Tank get away from us. Link to post Share on other sites
Turkeydawg 2,465 Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 Yeah, there are quite a few rb's I'd be happy with, paired with Evan's, or Milton. I would be good with Tank, Gibbs, Edward's and maybe Chaney. Would like to see them try and get back in with Lloyd, depending how things play out. Link to post Share on other sites
Wardog357 2,020 Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 I just want (2) good rb’s in this class. That won’t necessarily equate to how good they’ll be at college ball. Give me one bruiser and one cruiser! Link to post Share on other sites

Carter 21,894 Posted June 10, 2019 Author Share Posted June 10, 2019 Trent Smallwood just put in his picks for RB Kendall Milton and OT Josh Braun to UGA. Been a lot of noise for Milton to the Buckeyes but Trent says he feels confident enough to make the prediction. He also put in Trenton Simpson to Auburn. Link to post Share on other sites

RandomFan 8,801 Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 Quote SoFL_Dawg Posts: 5,038 1:58PM For those that are huge Noah Sewell fans, this recruitment is getting interesting. I’m moving up the watch list based on today’s chatter. I’m hearing both Flowe and Sewell are equal in terms of staff going after them now. Tisdol remains a back up is leaning barn. There’s growing confidences that Sewell is more than just site seeing. Hearing staff is only inking 1 ILB this class, even at 25. On Simpson, I’m reiterating he was priority, likely because of geography; we missed here because of depth chart concerns. I received a question “did we tell him no?” I haven’t heard anything to support that. He told us no by all accounts. We are not expecting him to keep his OV based on today’s chatter. Huge pickup for the barn. Link to post Share on other sites

Ransack 3,132 Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 Don't think this ish isn't intentional either. UF had a big decommitment tonight followed shortly by Braun publicly committing. That sound you heard was Kirby's nutsack smacking Dan in the face. Link to post Share on other sites
