Man, I feel terrible for Caleb. All indications were that he had gotten himself together after the bowl game. Time to move on and I wish Caleb all the best.

I remember hoping we got King back when he was a senior. I don't even remember how high on us he was - but I still thought he'd be really good.

I always said he would suck. He hates contact. Football is a contact sport. Right when he was handed the ball he bolted to the outside and to the sideline. He sucked.

that's the case for 90% of good high school running backs - they all go to the outside because they can and it's easy because they're so much faster than anyone at that level.

any chance that Richard Samuels kid will go back to RB? he does have experience.

Too early to tell. Samuel redshirted last year to learn the new defense, it would seem like a wasted year IMO if he were to go back on offense now. Richard has come a long way on the defensive side. He probably would not start right away but he will definitely be in the mix.

not to pile on cause I kinda like Richt but I do remember this interview with Berry. At least the kid couldve finished up his career there.

"I guess I just felt like Georgia thought they had me in the bag, and they didn't even know about me and I was in their backyard," Berry explains. "I remember when I went on my recruiting visit, coach (Mark) Richt had my name and stats written on his hand. I guess he thought I didn't see it or something, but I did.

"They were talking to me about playing wide receiver; they didn't even know my position was safety and quarterback. That really made me upset. Coach Kiffin (who then was at Southern Cal), he came with Pete Carroll and the running backs coach and they knew all about me. And I was in Georgia's backyard.

"But all the talk was about Caleb King (now a redshirt sophomore at Georgia battling for a starting job). ... I was just like, 'Dang.' ... I just felt like (they) needed to know a little something about me. A few more phone calls or something."

I really like Berry and I respect that dude alot. I take those comments as a young kid who got his feelings hurt because he didn't get the respect he thought he deserved from our coaching staff. Berry was UT bound, everybody knew that. Why would we waste our efforts on a kid we know is not interested in us. I understand those comments but they are blown out of proportion though.

Apparently Richt wasted a sharpie on his hand to try to impress him when he actually knew nothing about him.
