2023 Recruiting

[RoanokeJacket]

He's got decent speed and a decent arm. Only thing is that he's gotta fill into his body some. He's 6'5" 175.

He shouldn't be allowed on a CFB field until he puts on at least 40 lbs. 175 stretched over that height would be dangerous for him.

He is comparable to Sims size in high school.

He is Class of 2025, so there is plenty of time to grow.

According to the 247 Sports link, he's already put on 5 lbs since his weight was reported yesterday afternoon. At this rate, he should be fine once he reports to campus.

But also clever: Hefty Lefty, Round Mound of Touchdown, and QBese.

Possibly #7 coming tonight?

Let's be real. Feels like we are backfilling the '23 class with low 3 star kids who don't have a lot of other P5 offers. CPJ type recruits without the scheme.

This doesn’t make sense

Not sure if you are serious or being sarcastic. Nothing against these kids individually or personally of course but look at the facts.

You don't backfill in June. You backfill in November - maybe October.

Please share "the facts" with us.

We are front loading, not backfilling. Probably fair to say we are taking kids right away that we may have told to wait in previous years, but it's probably a good strategy. If the wins come, so will the higher rated recruits. If the wins don't come, everyone is fired and most of them decommit.

What is Georgia Tech's current recruiting ranking on rivals or 247? Is it Elite?

Btw, currently #39 on rivals. Bama is currently #33.

If we're within 33 spots of Bama 6 months from now there's going to be widespread happiness on this board.

Very serious. Explain how they are backfilling in June?

Yes, can’t think of year when HS recruiting has meant less. Obviously it’s hard to recruit after winning 3-3-3 and turning your best recruiters over doesn’t help. I doubt you have any of the deep pockets forking over money for “NIL” deals either if they were too cheap to buy Geoff out in the off-season; and dumping money in now would be supporting GC in a way. So our commits are guys looking to lock in a P5 offer early.

Hopefully donors pump some money behind the new coach, and we can have an OK recruiting swing in December when we turn things over.
