Definitely a reference to Bolden and UGA. Got to think Bolden is in Orange and Blue or Tallahassee right now if Dylan Raiola sticks with UGA.

It couldn’t have been money because I was assured by Uga fans they don’t play that at Georgia.

Yep. They're only interested in high character kids that "commit to the G" and not money.

It sounds like Kirby won the dad over and that was what tipped the scales.

I think Bama and UGA have figured out the best defense is a good offense. Build a relationship over time and as your target list narrows lob out big offers right before signing day... make your competitors scramble and up their offers. Keeps your competitors from making real runs at other recruits.

KJ I truly believe the 5* QB going to Nebraska freed up cap space for UGA. With Green and Harris leaving they decided to lob a massive offer at KJ. If he takes it great, now you get KJ. If he doesn't OK well at least Auburn has to up their offer and maybe can't take the same run at LJ McCray as we were.

PT Best case scenario Bama could have flipped him. Worst case scenario they make us up our offer and that's money we can't spend on RW, etc.

Probably nothing nefarious. Likely outsold at the last minute. OG eBay style

And missed on KJ but if we get AJ Harris that will soften that blow a great deal.
Something to think about here is that the NIL we were going spend on KJ can likely be allocated to LJ, RW, and AJ Harris.

Towns McGough


They are giving him a scholly, Auburn probably won’t put him on scholly until Alex is gone to the NFL.

You made a stupid comment and so I called you out for being stupid. Stick to your sources and try not to be stupid anymore.

Yeah, but Auburn has offered him NIL to cover his tuition, so it's not exactly like he's just a PWO.

How much above his tuition, nobody knows.

This is correct.
Why drive to Oxford when you don't need to?

We are doing the same thing and so this will happen moving forward. That’s why a signed LOI turned in is what I count on.

Agreed and I think these are the two teams and players Freeze was alluding to in his press conference. We got Perry to stay but lost out on Bolden.

Yep. I really think Freeze thought we were going to get Bolden up until UGA came in and topped our offer. Now we have a lot of money to give out to these others guys.

Dylan Gentry surprised me..

Was it a package deal to keep Coleman? Is he very quick and will be used like Wes Welker?
