I generally like Gus but one of his biggest criticisms was that he didn't have a backup plan after SW went down and he should have prepared better for that possibility. Welp, there you go. That was his missed opportunity which is totally on his shoulders. He could have averted a disaster by signing Webb, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlaskanFAN 1,665 Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 Is Tyree Johnson coming in for the weekend? Odd lists of visits. Maryland, Michigan St., aTm and us. I got Maryland with him being from D.C. but a player rated as highly as him not visiting Ohio St, Michigan or Penn St. Are we just a free visit, or is there real interest there? He is committed to aTm, which visited last weekend. Is he friends with Calvin and that's why he is coming? I'll hang up now and listen in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better fit for the the offense. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the half he played that got his AU offer was only because QB1 was injured early in the 1st quarter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gowebb11 9,258 Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 Glad it's in the rear view mirror now. I feel good about 2017! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we can finish with Johnson, Taylor, & Bryant I will. Hunter would have made it a nearly complete class. We will need to get an impact safety in the 2018 class whether that be from high school or juco. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
War to the Eagle 360 Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 Given that Bryant's probably doubtful and Taylor may be too, how do we rate this class overall? We hit the biggest needs (sans Hunter) if you figure needing a marquee QB, a great OL haul and a great LB haul. Very good, if not great? Solid, but not elite?

We hit the biggest needs (sans Hunter) if you figure needing a marquee QB, a great OL haul and a great LB haul. Very good, if not great? Solid, but not elite? Bryant is not doubtful yet. UGA may lead but they have to miss on other players to take him as they only a few spots left & more pressing needs than a rush end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solomon dropped AU 3 weeks ago & Poutasi is not likely getting an AU offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
