2019 recruiting signing day thread

You got 1 good LBer and 1 good OL and that’s it. FSU whiffed on just about every single need.
So which 4 star backer isn't any good? Since we got two. Got 6 OL, are you saying none of them are any good? I find that hard to believe.
 
Uhhhh there's no trophy for beating Auburn in a recruiting class. It's a number. Auburn getting a better class or not doesn't affect the kids we are bringing in to play with this class. I would MUCH rather sit behind Aurubrn in the recruiting class rankings than see jortgia get another 5* player who we will have to compete against on the field each and every year.

Yes having a highly ranked recruiting class is good and is a good selling point to future recruits too, but unless you are georgia, there is no trophy or rings given out for your recruiting class ranking. You take what you can take and work with it.

Couldn't agree with you more.

I said you got 1 good LBer and 1 good olineman and then a bunch of DBs. Whiffed big time on a bunch of needs.

Obviously the QB whiff is as big as anything I’ve ever seen. I think they said FSU is the only program in the entire country to not sign at least 1 QB in 2 years.
 
Teams with poor classes considering who they are: UCLA, Miami, FSU and USC

Miami has got us all fooled, see what we don't know is that they don't really want all these kids right out of high school. They want them to sit and infiltrate all these other top schools and then transfer to Miami after they have learned the tricks and coaching styles of the Alabama or Ohio States of the world. Tricky..... Always finding ways to cheat;)

5 star WR Pickens just switched to Georgia in a pretty big flip from Auburn.

That should keep Auburn from jumping us in the rankings.

Its looking like with Elam we will end up either 8th or 9th in Rivals and 9th or 10th in the composite rankings.

Looking like about a # 9 finish is likely in Rivals and the Composite rankings.

I don't think there is any way we get bumped out of the top 10 in either Rivals or the Composite now. If Penn State gets Cross later that would put as at # 10 in Rivals and no lower than 10th in the composite.

How much sleep would you lose if we got bumped to #11. We signed a great early signing class. Got a few more studs on the regular signing day. Won many battles, filled needs, already on a good track for the 2020 class pre August deadline, but you are worried about Penn State who we will probably never play save some bowl game such as the Outback.

It does suck he is getting all those good transfers for our game. Without them the game was probably going to be a laugher but now it could possibly be competitive. That kid from VT is really good and also Phillips from UCLA when he is not injured.

People like Fever that worry this much about rankings always make me shake my head. It's not about where your team is ranked, its did they fill their needs?

If your top needs were offensive and defensive linemen and you signed the #1 class, and didn't sign a single lineman, then you signed A BAD CLASS. It doesn't matter that they were ranked #1, if you didn't hit your needs, then you blew it.

Correct. For example UF signed 7 olineman. Olineman aren’t typically ranked as high as many of the other positions and they don’t typically give you a lot of recruiting point but we filled a big need.

To finish at #8 in the rankings after signing 7 olineman is a pretty damn good.

I love the recovery after the terrible start but our problem is the 2 schools recruiting at a crazy level now are the same 2 we have to overcome to start winning SEC Championships again. It will be hard to beat Georgia consistently to win the East most years until that gap is lessened some with top 5 type classes.
 
Looks like Charles Moore was fools gold and is having to go to Junior College first. The same guy that bragged about all the schools academics.

Florida didn't have a terrible start or strong finish, they had a good class. People that wring their hands about recruiting rankings in July will never understand this.

Georgia can sign all the #1 classes they want, as long as 4th and Kirby is still coaching them, it won't matter.

I think in 2020 we will start getting the classes we need hopefully to knock you guys off and start winning the East again regularly but I can see why a Bama fan likes things the way they are.

Kirby may not be a great coach but he already won the SEC and almost won the Playoff Championship game just because of the talent he is bringing in.

Crootin'


Moore was one of the players who we were recruiting at the end, then suddenly fell out of the race for over the past week. He signed with Auburn yesterday, but apparently the admissions staff was on holiday ! also signed with Jones County JUCO.

Yep - Moore signed 2 LOIs which I hadn't heard before but I've read it does happen every year with guys on the bubble of making it academically. They'll sign both D1 and Juco and see how it turns out.
 
After all is said and done, I and pretty much every educated person on the planet is still insulted that earlier in this thread, someone insinuated that a recruit having trouble QUALIFYING for admittance to Georgia could be a thing. I have lost sleep over the fact that someone thought it could actually be hard to get into what is pretty much nearly the absolute worst academic institution in The SEC. If the SEC had any kind of academic minimum standards, UGLY would be out of the conference before the ink even dried and Tennessee right behind them.

I highly doubt they have graduated a single football player in the last 44 years who could actually read or write his own name.

In fact I'd wager my season tickets in touchdown terrace next year on that being a fact. A forged degree from ITT Tech holds more merit than any degree from the university of georgia does.

Then I apologize to @nail1988 . My understanding was that you can't sign two LOI's. I've seen where guys sent two and the one with the earliest acceptable date stamp was declared the valid one and the other was null.

Too many rules are changing too fast for me. Can't keep up.

And if you don't trust and believe the 'fevered brain' then just look as Clemp's-son. If they didn't recruit Top 5 classes consistently, they'd never win squat... :rolleyes:
