Mikey 16,466 Posted September 1, 2016 Author Share Posted September 1, 2016 9 hours ago, ellitor said: Yes but people will likely have to wait til Friday at 4 pm when AU gives their list out to the sites. At least 1 will be free. There is a list now but it's VIP. I figure it's a lot easier & quicker, especially for me, to wait a couple days & paste a free list instead of going ahead & looking for twitter confirmation for each separate recruit. I will say on the VIP list there are 2 5*s (2018), 21 4*s, 9 3*s, & a former 5* in Stidham. Good deal, thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellitor 33,039 Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 OP & title updated with a preliminary list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CR 2,414 Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Great chance to impress recruits while most SEC schools are playing at neutral or visiting stadiums. Hopefully AU puts on a good show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlaskanFAN 1,665 Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 What chance to impress not only this years crop of recruits, but also the next two years as well. If well can put on a show in a packed house, on national television and then go roll Toomers after a 6 year hiatus, that will go a long way in some recruits minds. Defiantly a memory they won't forget! Try and have an other school duplicate that!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellitor 33,039 Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 A Heads up. UGA found out Wednesday they will be allowed to host some recruits in the dome for the UNC game so we may lose some visitors from this list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any guy that would rather watch the DullDawgs play UNC than AU/Clemson probably isn't very likely to come here anyway. This may be a good "culling tool." If they pick that game to attend, we should move on and save the time and money required to keep recruiting them. (And....I'm only half joking about that.)

ellitor 33,039 Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 Notes: Stidham good 3 day visit by all accounts 3* Juco OT/OG D'Marcus Hayes named AU leader & plans to commit this week. AU trending with 4* DE/DT Ryan Johnson AU trending for Ignont. AU UCLA coleaders 3* ATH Jatarvious Whitlow is likely a take. AU likes him at DB.

Mikey 16,466 Posted September 5, 2016 Author Share Posted September 5, 2016 I hope they'll all come back and visit again when we get our offense straightened out. If I had been a recruit in the stands Saturday night I'd be having some serious second thoughts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't there but from talking to folks who were the atmosphere was as good as it has been in a long time. Recruits had to love this. Defensive players had to be impressed. But if I'm an offensive recruit, especially a receiver or QB, I saw nothing that would make me want to play for Gus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As bad as the O struggled all recruits were impressed with the D & that is reportedly a net positive. Stidham, in particular, said the offensive struggles did not bother him one bit. That could be fluff. IDK. He also believes there would not be rotating QBs or a QB battle if he were here. There is no question the O will affect different recruits differently. It may overshadow the trip for some but the atmosphere & crowd blew all the recruits away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was also thinking that a lot of offensive recruits would look at that and feel really good about their chances to come in and start day 1. Look at all those fantastic defensive recruits who lit it up for the Tigers Saturday night! What they saw on the field when they were recruited was a joke. But they are here now and they have changed the atmosphere. The O recruits could do the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
