TexasTiger 12,947 Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 So I would like to know what happened in the last 2 hours before he signed. How did UGA go from being eliminated, to back in it, to a real threat, to making us sweat bullets? What more could have happened that would have changed a decision that had been made weeks ago according to some on here. Was he playing UGA? Glad he ended up with the good guys! :wareagle:/> Twitter rumors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AuburnSpider 2 Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 I have been one of the village torch bearers, but not because of a lack of recruiting prowess. He's a recruiters recruiter and without him on this staff we would be very upset today. Having said that I hope he rededicates himself to molding his students into top SEC linemen.

UGA was never eliminated. If people were sweating bullets then that's just their own nervous nature. It never got sweating bullets close. In recruiting, decisions are just points in time that can be very fluid & for many 17-18 year olds commit does not mean finality especially when you got some world class sales men pulling you the other way. Just because Derrick silently committed in December, which he did, does not mean it will necessarily hold up on NSD. Luckily for AU the silents held up this year. Other years they don't.No Derrick was not playing UGA. UGA was just doing their job trying to get Derrick to change his mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcgufcm 4,101 Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 If Brown or Jackson are playing meaningful snaps, it says a LOT about them. The DT rotation is pretty full (Adams, Russell, Lawrence, and Swain were all in our five-man rotation last year). If a true freshman cracks that rotation, then that guy can ball.

True but Swain did not play well. The 4th spot in the rotation is wide open right now IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AuburnSpider 2 Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 Just don't think Swain has the same level of talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcgufcm 4,101 Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 Swain didn't play particularly well, but experience matters on the defensive line. He's been through the wars, and his body is more mature than Brown or Jackson. Think about Monty Adams. He made splash plays early in his freshman season; then he completely disappeared because he couldn't handle the grind. I think that probably happened to Swain last year, and it's a rare player that can make the jump from HS to an impact rotation guy in the SEC on the defensive line. I would LOVE one or both of them to do it because, like I said, it won't be an indictment of the current guys in the rotation. It will speak volumes about the talent and toughness of either (or both) of the freshmen. They look great, and I'd love to have two freshman All-Americans. I just tend to put my money on the experienced players. Anyone have thoughts or insight on Jauntavius Johnson? Is he a potential Russell (breaking out after a redshirt year)? Plus you'd have to add Andrew Williams as a rotation threat. He played more on the back end of the year. It's a good problem. We have very good depth at the DT spot.

McLoofus 35,182 Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 ^Johnson seems like the most logical 2nd nose tackle off the bench if we run any traditional 3-4. But that's going purely off metrics and recruiting info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
