UF has Powell and Floyd. Both of those players are freshman and already making an impact.

USCe has Clowney and Ingram who are both having great seasons so far.

UT doesn't have a player quite on their level at this point yet imo.

I think Powell and Floyd are sophomores but I get your point. We definately need to start getting some of these guys to be even close to having a d line comparable in talent to some of the other elite ones like USC/LSU/BAMAs

Oh you're right. Brain fart. Still, they are both young players making an impact.

What would be worse?

a. Losing O'Brien.

b. Losing to UGA.

I would much rather lose O'Brien than lose to UGA this week, but am I being short-sighted?

Losing to UGA. I would never sacrifice a win against an SEC Rival or any opponent for that matter for a single recruit.

Plus winning a game like UGA makes recruiting that much easier.

powell and floyd are sophs

Ingram is a senior so not really fair to put him against the guys i listed - i think he and MJackson compare favorably although he has definitely had the better start this year

overall i agree on the need to get someone to dominate out of that group but some have shown flashes so it is not a lost cause

we have the depth - now we need that elite level DL to develop out of that group

This is gonna be my 8th time seeing them. I convinced my whole family to go: Mom, Dad, my fiancee, my brother and his lady are all going to see them. I'm beyond excited. Although Newt, I'm pretty jealous you saw them at Red Rocks. There aren't many things in this world that could top that show, except maybe signing Danny O'Brien.

Off subject, but was just talking to my Calculus professor and turns out he's a big Michigan fan and loves recruiting. He basically conceded that Danny was going to be a Vol tomorrow. I thought it was awesome that he follows recruiting.
