Watched it live and just shook my head

He is. One of my best friends just joined the staff at Rome and said as much. Lots of Power 5 talent coming through there over the next 3-4 years.

Kid is good. He also has a rising sophomore brother that will be a power 5 WR/DB. Supposed to be better than big brother from what I’m told.

That’s about to change. The dynamic/make up of Buford has become a lot more diverse than it was 10-15 years ago. Expect their 5 star high school players to be day 1 or day 2 draft picks now. The kids they have this year are special. They are freaking LOADED.

He will walk into AU one of the strongest players on the roster. 405+ bench and 385+ power clean as a 17 year old HS senior. 2 of my college teammates were his HC and DC/Strength coaches at Kennesaw Mountain. They spoke extremely highly of him and his work ethic. He may or may not be ready to play next fall, but I don’t think it will be from a lack of preparation.

Jamarion Wilcox… we just a hat on the table or is he a legit possibility to commit?

This was a lot of fun. It’s been since like 2016 that signing day had this many pleasant surprises

Amazing what relationships and effort can do for HS recruiting.

I know his HS HC really well. He spoke highly of this kid’s character at a camp we were at together this summer. Big pick up.

To say the OL issues are squarely on Harsin is a testament to how loyal you are to Gus. Bravo.

Huge pickup. Getting a foothold in South Fulton county will pay huge dividends. Westlake, Creekside, and Hughes are all LOADED over the next 3 years. WDE

The lack of OL recruiting over the last few years is wild. In 2012 we signed SEVEN HS OL… we have not signed 7 total in the last 3 years!

B. Harsin not knowing important in-state coaches/programs is a problem that needs to be fixed asap. I hope he gets this issue resolved soon. I am a HS HC in GA, at a school that has not recently and likely will not produce power 5 talent over the next several years… but Kirby still has my number and speaks to me at coaching functions. Relationships matter in recruiting far more than the average person wants to acknowledge.

Where is Zion Puckett in this article? Not including a player that started multiple games is shoddy journalism. Do better Mr. Giddens

And that is probably true. But coming from someone who is indeed, a HS HC, you probably wouldn’t want your kid to play for those guys if they’ve got that sort of agenda.
