'20 NV TE Darnell Washington (UGA commit)

[benholt06]

So let’s connect some dots here. Washington only says he has signed. He did not have to show up to the Marietta game last night. I’m sure there were only a couple other things to do in the Vegas area than go to a high school game televised on ESPNU that looked like it had no one there. There were no other UGA commits at the game and it is well documented via IG that DW had a good conversation with HB. HB is now the only recruit from either school that is pushing for him that has had actual contact. Also again DW made a choice to go to the game and made a choice to go talk to HB.

V-O-L dots connected.

HB is all love with everybody, whether they're Vols or not. He's just a nice kid.

All the smoke is to UGA, now whether that's calculated like AV had suggested, or if there's actual fire there we won't know I guess until Jan. 2

Well let’s be real for a second, and this goes for everyone. I see the “he is going to see His future QB play” and that may well prove to be true, but they were playing at his HS(easy travel) if I was still in school and 17 years old, I would be at my school watching two programs play on a Friday night.

So....Washington is announcing his school on January 2nd....the same day as our bowl game.

Hmmmm....seems like this was orchestrated.

I did not realize that... anything to help me believe! Thx

Not his HS. DW goes to Desert Pines and game was at Bishop Gorman.
Point still stands tho, the game was basically in his back yard.

AP with the sad feels:

You were 7/10 the other day @Austin_Price.​

Where would you put it today?​

​

Over/Under 2.5/10?​

"that’s hard. I don’t think it’s trending well. I would take under 5/10."

Just realize that VQ guys have been out of the loop a lot since Pruitt took over. Also, they could be providing a cover to keep things quiet for the announcement. I won’t believe anything until he announces, or until @Atlanta VOL pops in here with a champagne bottle post.

 

[Batman1948]

He has signed somewhere because he is an EE. Was told you have to go ahead and sign if you are a EE. No one is willing to talk about where though. I imagine because they don't want to seem untrustworthy for future kids. Will be announced at the UA game.

Is that statement true? I thought you could just show up in January, if you were accepted by the college, without signing a LOI. The LOI just binds you to a school for a year.

Bama mods sold on it being UGA

 

[JRVOL11]

Don’t understand why he would rather play for Coley instead of Chaney.. with no proven QB’s on their roster smh

Yeah whenever I hear them say it’s trending this way or that way it doesn’t make sense. There is no trending, he’s signed. We just don’t know where.

UGA goes to the playoffs..

So I don't need to stay in this thread pushing F5 for 18 hours per day any more?

I believe all it takes is to show up and sign the athletic scholarship papers. LOI locks up your spot so the school doesn't give it to someone else in the meantime.

They aren’t going to be there with ****ing Caron Beck lmao. They better get top notch QB transfers.

 

[Volnut]

UGA goes to the playoffs..

By his sophomore year it may be UT going instead of UGA!

 

[volinbama256]

Harrison Bailey would have made Woody Quinn a first round draft choice. DW is missing out on something special.

THIS

Right. LOIs are completely unnecessary.

 

[JRVOL11]

UGA goes to the playoffs..

But if you’re never gonna win it, what’s the point ? Might as well come here and build something

 

[volatil]

Pretty sure they were sold Henry T was going to Bama last year too. He very well could end up at Georgia but there’s some gamesmanship going on here.

 

[millst987]

I’m trying to see the appeal with UGA right now for DW. Uncertainty at QB and OC for sure in the next couple years would certainly cause me pause as a recruit. On the surface, we have a much better situation for a guy like DW to come in and play right away in a productive offense with a coordinator that’s never going to leave unless he’s fired. I’m guessing the appeal to win 10-11 games a year is really pushing him to UGA. Otherwise, I’m not seeing why a 5 star offensive TE/WR would consider UGA.

 

[TheBigOne10]

UGA goes to the playoffs..

We get you are a dawg too, BGS.

 

[Dudleys87]

UGA goes to the playoffs..

1 time? Lol

 

[DeepPurpleFloyd]

So we're down right now? Need to know which meds to take. TIA

“You take the blue pill – the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe that Darnell Washington signed with the Vols. You take the red pill – you stay on Volnation and listen to the gnashing of teeth with the prospect that he signed with the Dawgs.”

$$$$$$$$$$$$..... straight cash makes people do strange things...

They are talking their confidence in him being a vol. Think of it is as confidence points trending.
