'20 NV TE Darnell Washington (UGA commit)

[Weezer]

Hmmmm. The Washinton thread has become a biggest pecker contest. Does the ignore thread option still exist?

Forfeiting that quickly? Guess it's good to know when you don't have a shot of winning.

Many have posted the basic logic with this one.

If DW signs with UGA it will be kept quiet by the UGA staff, and the Vols staff will respect his decision because they have some class.

If DW signs with Vols or anyone else then Kirby will leak it out of spite.

These classes UGA has been getting are shielding Kirbys average coaching abilities. It’s only a matter of time till we catch him slipping on a Saturday. Keep our recruiting going in the right direction like it is and that Saturday will come sooner. DW situation isn’t a must win even if he can significantly help us because he’ll be another brick in the wall shielding the kirb. I trust our coaching staff to break that wall down.

This post is spot on. Kirby has been out-talenting the East. He took a team with good talent and got them great talent. He is a good recruiter with the financial backing of the boosters. Anytime he runs into a team with equal talent or is out coached things go bad.

And with the talent he's gotten, he really hasn't out performed what Richt did at UGA.

Fixed

I hope so, but I think Darnell is milking our guys till they are dry...I hope I am wrong.

Don't tell me what to do. Yer not the boss of me. I refuse.

 

[yabo]

Yo @Atlanta VOL whats the latest?

Unfortunately I believe he's MIA until after DW chooses.

 

[Proud Army Wife]

I think he has already signed with someone, that's why he put out the announcement no more calls
or texts from anyone.

Good point.

Some people are addicted to drama.

Good.

Yup, if he comes here and gives any news it will get out.

But does DW have to tell anyone if he's signed? He's waivered between signing early and waiting. What if he signed early but told the other staff he was waiting to sign? Just one way I could see him possibly keeping the secret until he announces on Jan. 2.

Has a recruit ever sent a LOI fax to multiple schools? Does the fastest fax machine win? Does it matter if one of them is signed "mickey mouse"?

 

[barrylee]

I hate UGA too but if they are garbage then where does that put us? Outscored 122-26 in the past three years to a garbage team?

How many fing times are u going to bring this stat up??

NM.. Pane beat me..

If he did that then he is immature AF.

I remember the old days of the fax cam lol

Seemed to have a done a pretty good job across the OL/DL and front 7. Still missing a dynamic playmaker at RB and pass rusher also need another top level WR but other than that it was a very good class. But still not an elite class that makes gains on our two biggest rivals.

All your opinion. You have no idea how dynamic of a playmaker at RB, or Pass rusher these may be

 

[Weezer]

If he did that then he is immature AF.

Maybe, but it would allow him to keep his secret. Any coach who took that from him would be immature AF as well.

we still had a very good day yesterday. it should be all rainbows and unicorns today.

but noooooooooooo..........

we gotta manufacture something to bitch about.

lol. and some of y'all really question the existance of "legions of the miserable"........

 

[rgvol]

Lol wrong

You realize Clemson has never finished with a top 5 class under Dabo right? This would be their 1st if it holds up.

People seriously need to quit focusing on recruiting rankings. All those 5 stars haven't won UGA ****.

I knew Clemson wasn't hitting Top 5 classes until they broke into the CFP... but I was surprised by how "poor" their recruiting actually was.

Composite ranking since Dabo Swinney's first year:

2010: #27, ACC #3
5 4*, average rating .85

2011: #10, #2
3 5*, 6 4*, average rating .87

2012: #20, #3
8 4*, average rating .89

2013: #15, #3
1 5*, 8 4*, average rating .88

2014: #16, #3
11 4* (one was Desean Watson, this is when they started their move up), average rating .88

2015: #9, #2
3 5*, 9 4*, average rating .89

2016: #11, #2
1 5*, 12 4*, average rating .90

2017: #16, #3 (class with Tee Higgins and Amari Rogers)
2 5*, 8 4*, average rating .92

2018: #7, #1 (first time they've had the top class in the ACC in total points)
5 5*, 7 4*, average rating .93

Their early classes were largely normal sized at 20-25 commits with their later classes being small, usually around 20 commits. Still, they only brought in a total of 7 5* players in the first 7 years. Pruitt is closing out his 2nd class and looking at potentially 3, if DW signs.

I have no doubt AV has legit insider info as he has known several things only one would know and came to fruition. I just think he got overly cocky on this one thinking no way this kid could be playing each side and was only playing everyone else. I get the national media doesn’t know everything but there are way too many people for months saying UGA. At some point there would have been a slip if it was a game and not legitimate interest. There is that 1 or 2 kids each yr that sort of pulls the rug out from underneath staffs/boosters that made them feel like they had them then BAM reality hits. If the kid is smart enough to pull off this master troll plan then I will be happy but I just find it hard to believe the UGA talk/love is or was ever fake.

If he goes to UGA it shouldn’t be oh AV doesn’t know anything. It should be he trusted/believed what he was being told. Kids tell coaches and boosters same things all the time because they don’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings or they like a few staffs and find it hard to tell all but one NO.

Rainbows and unicorns are boring. VN runs on drama.
