Now that most have sent in their LOIs, what questions do you have left about your incoming class?

For UGA:

5-star OT Broderick Jones and 4-star OC Cedric Van Pran, while still on the "committed" list, have yet to send in their LOIs. I'm getting bad vibes about this and expect UGA could lose one or both.

That said, IF UGA can get LOIs from both AND sign 5-star RB Zach Evans (50% Crystal Ball to UGA), it could mean the #1 class in the country.
 
My only question for next year is,,, is Saban gonna be stubborn and try to prove golding was a good choice at DC or will he correct that shit.

Tough to say Golding did a bad job. When your entire LB Corp is decimated by injuries, it's not an easy task to carry forward. IMO, he did pretty damn good with what he had to work with.
 
Landed coveted top 100 guy Xzavier Henderson at WR. Pursuing another top 100 guy in Safety Avantae Williams.

We’re not back to getting our fair share of the top talent in-state again, but this class is a step forward. We need to start winning about 5 more recruiting battles per year. That would get us back to an elite level.
 
We just got a commitment from 4 star in-state recruit Vito Tisdale (safety). Hope we can hang onto these 10 4 stars and 1 5 star. This is our best recruiting campaign yet. Top 25, but still ranked at the bottom half of the SEC! :oops:

Yeah...he also has stupidity problems. I never was a big fan of him. Reminds me of Isaiah Crowell. Great talent, but more problems than a math book.

Now I'm looking for the 2nd back that UGA takes in this cycle and it looks like the best option is to steal 4-star Daijun Edwards from FSU. #19 RB in the nation. If by chance they could pull him away from Tallahassee, he would be the lowest ranked RB UGA has signed in 4 years.

I think it is unlikely. Corben coming in might help your cause but FSU is so thin at RB right now I am sure they are selling playing time and he has been a pretty solid FSU lean for a good while now but ya never know.

Playing time is nice to start with, but putting RBs in the NFL making millions will trump that every time. I mean the #7 RB coming out of HS last year (McIntosh) spent most of the season this year as the 6th string RB for UGA. Next year, he will be #2 behind Zeus. By the time he gets finished with his JR year, he'll be NFL ready. Dell McGee don't fuck around.

Yes UGA has certainly been a pipeline to the NFL for RBs but FSU has many in the league also. Dalvin Cook is one the the best RBs in the game right now. Then ya Devonta Freeman, Chris Thompson etc etc Akers will be a pretty high pick most likely also.

Almost all top RB prospects are coming out after year 3 no matter what. Their shelf life in the league is just to short. So early PT and getting good tape means a lot to them. I think a lot of guys are not wanting to be in a stable of back situation. (even though it may really benefit them because they have less wear and tear)

Also unless one is a 1st or 2nd rounder. They do not make the big money until the second contract and being a back in a stable of backs makes it tougher to be drafted in the 1st round.
