I once saw it said that

You know you did poorly in recruiting for a cycle when no one accuses you of cheating

Looking forward to enjoying Spiderman: Far From Home, Independence Day and this kid committing to the Dawgs soon.

Gonna be interesting to see if our final OL spot goes to Raym or Van Pran. Hard to see us taking 2 more and I think both want in.

Our OL recruiting is just nuts these days.

They could take 6 if they feel it's the right 6. There's a good chance we lose 4 starters off this years line.

Seems like all schools cry about "bags" when they don't get their guy, or when they have a solid commit decide to back off their pledge.

Exactly. It's always the bags. But in the optimist youth football league in Miami these guys pay mother's $5000 for their superstar 11 and 12 year old son to play on their team. They bet thousands of dollars a game on it. And these are optimist league games lol

Rusty on 247 supposedly said that Kirby told Pittman he could take 6

I agree it's definitely possible. Kinda thinking more in a strict numbers sense, but that's probably not the sticking point a lot of us have bought into since the NCAA changed the policy without really explaining it to anyone.

I think Kirby just wants the most talented players

He'd rather have 4 OL in the top 150, than an extra DB in the top 250 (essentially) 

That's why Pittman gets pretty much free reign every year. As long as he keeps bringing in the top talent in the country, Kirby can't/won't say no to him

Well I will say this... I don't know how you could say no to either of those guys. Raym and SVP both look like grown *** men who would just maul everyone in their way. 

[VA F.O. 3,644]

Every year we here that we're only taking so many OL, and every year that number increases more and more, as Pittman has some of the best overall talent in the class lining up to play for him, and Kirby refuses to say no to top talent, no matter how it may affect other areas of recruiting

I really get the feeling that Kirby basically tells his other coaches they can have more spots as soon as they can recruit at the level that Pittman does

You want another spot, fine, easy, just bring me a player better than Pittman's 6th best recruit this year

CB for low 3-star OG Devin Willock (NJ) to the Dawgs? Where did that come from?

 

[LawDawg 1,366]

Nevermind, that insider just changed it to foggy.

Kirby going in dry and UF fans know it.

Interesting comments from some guys who were around our staff recently... Sort of got confirmation that a lot of the UF stuff happening is intentional straight from the horse's mouth... (don't want to say too much here) Suffice it to say there is no love lost there and it's become a fun secondary goal to just recruiting at an elite level... for the staff from the top down.

Mullen kicked the hornets nest, and now he's paying the price. Serves him and them right.

Looks like we made a HUGE impression on Milton. Word is that he’s completely eliminated OSU and Bama. I think he’s in. Also, Sewell apparently had great visit as well, I believe we lead for him at this point

Is he still headed to Alabama next week?

Haven’t heard an answer to that yet.. my guess is yes but I’m not worried about it. I was more “concerned” with OSU tbh. I think this is about as close as a guarantee as there is at this point 

[Bdawg58 1,505]

Our staff just gets IT. This is really classy of our staff

Awesome.  Thank you Bdawg!

[Bdawg58 1,505]

writing is on the wall I believe.. I think Milton is all dawg

[SacFalcFan 101]

i agree on Milton..  i do enjoy bill k's osu updates for his board.. his delusion is so overwhelming.. 

[Bdawg58 1,505]

Rumors are we will have multiple commitments over the next 7-10 days... let the guessing begin. Go Dawgs 

[VA F.O. 3,644]

Kipp the first to get his CB in for Milton to UGA
