2022 Recruiting

Have you mentioned this to Collins? A great revelation that we should try to recruit players that (1) have a designated position when they arrive and (2) can come in and start from day 1. I think we may have been approaching this thing all wrong.

I said that for the TE position only, due to lack of production there, but thanks for going off on a silly tangent, our Fans seem to be good at that

The TE’s that can come in and contribute on day 1 are going to Alabama, uga, and Ohio State. There are only a handful that can do that.

BC, ND, Wiscy, Iowa, Penn St, TAMU, many other places have good TEs that can start from Day1 at GT the way we are currently constructed.

There are about 7 good ones in the GA Top100 for the Class of 22 ,

Injuries and covid year. Was likely undersized before covid. I don't think this is a kid we need to worry about offer sheets on. Covid has left a lot of diamonds in the rough as a lot of kids haven't been fully evaluated. This is something we can capitalize on.

Also, it's amazing one obvious joke can produce so much douchiness.

Don't care, he looks pretty lean to be 6-7 330lbs, take a risk on size and see if he can develop the quickness necessary to help us on the field.

With the numbers of non producers that we have combined with increase in LOIs for 2022, makes this a risk worth taking.

We need more Young OLs anyway, take a flyer on size, I used to see his Dad in SAC playing pick-up basketball in the Off-season and he was amazing with the Coordination and short area quickness that he had, he looks like his Dad's Twin, maybe that same quickness will emerge for us.

His HS Played Long Beach Poly(this season), a long time Powerhouse Program, think of Cali's version of Valdosta, in fact Long Beach Poly has sent way more Guys to the NFL than Valdosta has.

If you can find that Video and see how he played vs Long Beach- Poly that will tell you whether or not he's a P5 Player.

I'll scour YT and see if anything Pops.

We ain't Bama, Ohio State or Oklahoma University.

When you are a "frugal" Program that doesn't have Bagmen, then you use a few scholarships in each class for real Big Guys that might develop late or real fast Guys that might develop late.

We had an OL from 2020 that rang the bell pretty quick, plus we can sign 32 this yr.

If it were me, I would have 10 early enrollees, that are back counted to 2021, then bring in the full 32 when Normal T-Fr report, might as well finish ripping that Band-Aid off and get the Roster we need to compete.

I have no tolerance for Guys that won't play physical, that don't love the brutality and hitting aspect of CFB, they can find a warm landing Spot at a lower level CFB, we are trying to win, in exchange for giving out $250K College Educations, the GTAA needs to Recruit Players that are committed to winning and embracing the physicality of P5 CFB.

We have Guys that play the Game like they don't like hitting.

Valid points. Just seems we ran out of steam filling out the '22 class.

3-5 doesn’t help. When we win the next couple, that should help convince that we’re headed in the right direction and hopefully pull some off the fence.
