‘23 CA QB Nicholaus Iamaleava (Tennessee)

[BigOrangeTrain]

Smart doesn't know how to develop top level QB talent. This is good for us

Agreed

 

[GetEmVols]

Agreed

Except Smart isn’t at oregon

But whenever Arch commits, the programs that lose out will immediately begin trying to flip a kid like this. Committed doesn't mean committed. If we get him in the boat, the staff has to keep him in the boat. I hope we get him, and I hope he sticks, but it would really suck to have him commit and then decommit to go elsewhere.

Highly rated QBs rarely flip like that, once they commit...they commit

From Rivals:

While Alabama and Texas seem to be the two primary schools duking it out over Manning, Georgia and Tennessee have their sights set on new five-star Nico Iamaleava. The Californian is rumored to be leaning toward signing with an SEC school or - if he decides to stay out West - Oregon or possibly UCLA.

The national champion Bulldogs have made Iamaleava a priority in this class and are hoping to get him on before he commits later this spring. The Vols have hosted him a couple times already and have built some strong relationships with him. Alabama is also heavily involved with Iamaleava, which, depending on Manning's decision, will be important to remember.

It’s simply false that UGA has made Nico a priority. Quite the opposite in fact- it’s Arch for them which is being pointed out by our coaches daily.

Just laughable that they would write that.

He’ll commit to us…. Play his senior year and get Dumped down 300+ spots in the rankings to a 3 star. Just how these things go for us….

Or he will choose Bama and suddenly become the #1 player in this class. And people would still pay $9.95 a month. Go figure.

 

[turnuptheVOLtage]

This is head to head with UGA and Bama… would be amazing IF we get him, because it screws one of the other two teams. I won’t hold my breath though

 

[Devo182]

Wasn’t JG rated super high? Urban was legit hurt he chose UT and even subtweeted him,

Technically HB was a 5* on one site but JG was actually recruited and wanted by big time schools

JG was in the 70s or 80s. Same as Salter. HB ended up #99 on the dot.

So it's not amazing because it helps UT? Seems like that would be more relevant to an actual fan.

Ditto

White, Pearce and Nichols say Hi....SMH

I don't know why not. History and GA QBs vs two completely different types of Offenses.
Look at this past year should tell you that the QB position is always up for Grabs.
GA has a history of Wasting QBs.
This kid is not traveling cross country to have to look over his shoulder or to ride the pine.

At the QB position??

That's funny. This isn't Pruitt's offense. There's a reason why el Heup, in his first full recruiting cycle, has us deep with a multitude of top guys. The first time in maybe 20 years.

We have gotten plenty of recruits over UGA

 

[MemphisVol3]

We have gotten plenty of recruits over UGA

Right. Several in just this past cycle.

 

[peaygolf]

Right. Several in just this past cycle.

But, but.......UGA didn't want them anyway

 

[Falcons02]

If Heup pulls this off it could be the catalyst to finally turning the Titanic all the way around

He dosen't need to. He just won a Natty with a backup walk on

He also has another 5 star sitting there waiting to play in Vandagriff— If I’m as elite as Nico, I’m not going to Georgia to sit behind a 5* who will have 2-3 years to play.

IMO Nico is better and it would be Vandergriff who would transfer.
