That has made a huge difference. AU's recruits aren't recruiting like this for one reason or another. Any extra info on why au recruits arent recruiting him to AU?

CR 2,442 Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 Smart is killing it recruiting. Richt was never able to keep this many top in-state players at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richt was never able to keep this many top in-state players at home. Richt still had top 5 classes. He just went outside Georgia's borders a bit more. Also he has the Canes w/ the #3 class in the nation. Make no mistake about it. The man knows how to recruit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thaitopher 807 Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 This one will hurt. Hill was our most important remaining target (in my opinion). Our line could have used someone this dominant. The commits we have now on the O line have a lot of potential, but they will probably be riding the bench for a few years first. We can expect Georgia to have many more dominant performances against us like they had in the SECCG if we keep losing these types of battles.

ellitor 33,093 Posted December 11, 2017 Author Share Posted December 11, 2017 It's a small sampling but in a Rivals article more UGA commits & high targets picked Trey to choose AU than UGA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcgufcm 4,096 Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 My thought? Go hard after Tank Jenkins. Contrary to anyone's opinion, Hill wasn't going to play for us next year. Harrell and Horton are going to be our starting Guards, barring injury. Jenkins has a high ceiling but probably needs a year or two... good news! We have a year or two before we should need him. You win some, you lose some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thaitopher 807 Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 Don't think this is UGA 100% yet. Don't be too shocked if he does pick Auburn. That said, expect him to pick UGA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given there is a current unproven hole at C it is concievable he could have been our starting C next year at some point as a freshman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GwillMac6 20,671 Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 Just seems like all that momentum that our boys in blue and our coaches worked really hard on that came with the amazing atmospheres and games of the first georgia game and the iron bowl was basically all erased or hurt in the sec title game. Goes to show you how shaky and unstable our recruiting ground coming in to this season was with all the questions surrounding gus where all it took was 1 bad game to flip the balance of power on some key targets. We need a dominant performance in the bowl game to get back some momentum and close the year strong and not have the sec title game be the last game recruits remember. Winning 10 games next year is more important ever. And of course WHO we beat to get to those 10 games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthGATiger 64 Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 I'm still unsure about UGA because he really likes AU....ALOT and he believes he can come in and have a chance to play immediately. It will certainly surprise me if he chooses UGA but he does have Fromm and Kirby in his ear all the time. Kirby was at his house Wednesday showing the love. AU was there Thursday but I don't think Gus came... not sure why but that could be a big mistake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IDK if he has but he is not a proven commodity to us fans. He was coming into AU off an injury. If he was on scout team which I expect he was when he got healthy,, scout teamers don't get much of a chance to really progress during that football season now-a-days Neither is Kaleb Kim on the known commodity part..

You do realize games in a season have very little impact on that year's recruiting class as long as there isn't a major staff change right? The SECCG will have no bearing on who Trey Hill picks. He will pick UGA or AU regardless. And yes AU created momentum off this season before the SECCG. Now whether that momentum would lead to AU winning recruiting battles in this class on kids they weren't already leading with is highly doubtful. History has shown time & again relationships win battles in current recruiting classes, not having great seasons on the field, Those great seasons on the field has a much bigger impact in later classes because they open doors for relationships to be formed between recruits & staff.

This was a special case for this season. WE HAD to have a good year on the field or our staff was going to get fired. We were getting hammered in negative recruiting. The relationships were going to be good are only as good as the on field results for this cycle because this staff would be gone. The team came up big down the stretch. I believe the SEC title game absolutely had some bearing. we had all the momentum in his recruitment before that game and now have none after that game. obviously it had a impact.
