I don't understand what all the angst is about over Hunter Johnson de-comitting. I never thought that we would keep all 4 of Dormady, S. Jones, Guarantano, & Johnson anyway. Too many other good college teams like Clemson that can offer early PT & a lot less QB competition.

Agreed. It's 2015 and people are worried about a QB that hasn't even played his Senior year in high school? C'mon man...Who knows, by then we could be starring down the barrel of an SEC championship and perennial favorites as an NY6/playoff team.

Not saying it's not a cause for concern but I'll worry about more pressing matters now, not a 16 year old's decision on where he'll play ball.

Youve never seen jones play for one. And to act like Mac us some all knowing guru by not visiting him is premature and silly at best.

You haven't seen Jones play. Lol

Mac knows what he wants at QB. Not sure Grier is it. We know Harris isn't it. Look at Franks, Eason and Allen, all are 6'4+ with big arms. He has a type.

247sports has us on the following targets:

Derrick Brown DT 5*
Mecole Hardman Jr. ATH 4.5*
Jeffery Simmons SDE 4*
Landon Dickerson OT 4*
Nigel Warrior S 4*
Marquez Callaway ATH 4*
Donnie Corley WR 4*
Lavert Hill CB 4*
Velus Jones Jr. WR 3*
D'Andre Christmas-Giles DT 3*

and that is all. So, if those are our only 10 targets, which do we actually get? BTW, if we were to close with any 5 of those 10, we will be in very good shape.

I'll say the following, but not very confident on Jones anymore.

Should add "immediate termination of HC if proven false allegations"

Missouri, the whole state and anything in associated with it, is just getting worse and worse each year.

Right now how I see it is that everyone has free speech according to the constitution. But, if you are being paid a scholarship to play football and you refuse to play under any ground then why are you getting paid?

Trade Jones for Callaway and drop Brown.

I think Brown ends up at UGA in the end. :ermm:

Yeah, I'm not super confident on Brown, just more hopeful. I think this will be a class where you see very few difference makers early on, but guys will develop in the program and become really good players for us.

I expected this class to be less stellar than the last two, but I think we are getting some good players. They will be depth for a couple years and will be trained up by those ahead of them on the depth chart which helps the coaches out. I'm not too worried, but I would like to see a couple more highly ranked recruits join the class though.

It's gonna be tough to continue to pull in blue chip players and ask them to redshirt. Those guys want to be needed right away. Or at least see an opening somewhere on the depth chart. We finally have a pretty stacked roster that's deep.

This is definitely not as exciting of an opportunity as the last two classes were offered. We'll find some players though. It's clearly not going to be as big of a splash as the last couple years. And that's okay.

Bama, GA and LSU seem to be able to do it year after year.:hi:
