metafour 4,969 Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 His coach seems to be trying his hardest to steer him away from Georgia, or so UGA fans claim. Apparently he refused to drive Thompson to UGA so he wont be making the trip as was planned. They think he's actively keeping him away from UGA while encouraging trips to other schools (hence all the trips to Auburn despite him being a huge UGA fan)...they aren't very happy.

metafour 4,969 Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 Isn't that some type of NCAA violation? Is what a violation? A coach being involved? As long as the coach isn't deemed to be a booster and/or isn't receiving benefits (or dishing them out), there isn't any rule against them "guiding" a recruit in their decision. I dont know whether Thompson's coach has some sort of vendetta against UGA or not, but UGA fans are pretty convinced that he does. They still see Thompson as a 99% lock regardless.

AUTUmike 79 Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 At what point are these kids going to realize that UGA never lives up to their talent? They always recruit extremely well and lay a couple stinkers every year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would love to get him. He apparently will be hard to pry away from UGA but, if anyone can make it happen, I like our chances with Coach Garner and Coach Malzahn. If Thompson looks at what we did last year, playing lots of freshman in our D Line playing rotation, you would think he would be excited to get PT in year 1. School is still out on UGA's new D coordinator. Hopefully their D continuies to under impress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been said all along she's a major player in this process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This visit is huge with his mother visiting also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
