Well, I can see why you feel that an apology is in order - even though I never intended to call you a "liar."

I did not intend to call your post bullshit. Please note that I used the words "This WAS" bs. I was not referring to your post, but to the posts that were made throughout the month of July about this recruit when we were all giddy about the commitments of 4 star LBs like Rolin and many were saying that we were looking at dumping Dallas at that time. Those posts WERE pure rumor and speculation at that time. Yours apparently was not - AT THIS TIME.

You are correct that I don't know you or any of your connections. Those connections were obviously correct.

Therefore, I apologize that I wrote my post in such a way that it was interpreted as an attack on your credibility. More simply . . .

I apologize.

Kelsey Griffin and Vonashek from this class (if they stay...knock on wood), Mikie D, Joe Harris, Chaz Elder, Jhaustin Thomas

If anything, hopefully he can give us solid depth to allow our young guys to grow.
He doesn't have to be fantastic, just play the position.

JC linebacker to visit USC this weekend
By Phil Kornblut
After losing committed LB Matt Rolin to Florida, USC set out to find a junior college linebacker who was available and would fit their system. They possibly have found that guy in Tommy Sanders of Butler JC, KS. According to a source, Sanders will make an official visit to USC this weekend. Sanders (6-1 210) was close to making a decision last week after visiting Ohio State but held off. He has visited Mississippi State, Ohio State and Texas A&M. USC linebackers coach Kirk Botkin visited Sanders earlier this week. He also met this week with his Ohio State recruiter and Auburn head coach Gus Malzahn. Sanders is a Georgia native and a mid year transfer. He earned honorable mention JC All American honors this season.

From the AJC this morning...

"Wiggins has been committed to UGA for nearly a year and is still being heavily pursued by other colleges. Next month, Wiggins is scheduled to take official visits to South Carolina, Florida, Ole Miss and Texas A&M. The Gamecocks are considered UGA’s biggest competitor.

'Yes, I’m still committed to Georgia but I’m looking at other opportunities,' Wiggins told the AJC. 'This is a real hard decision for me. It has become real hard for me right now. I really don’t know who to believe. I’m just going through the process slowly.'"

Sounds like he's not sure, at all. Get him on campus for a visit, and steal one back from them for taking Langley. Article goes on to mention that Alan Knott, OL commitment, is on Wiggins' HS team. I think flipping is a very real possibility.

[Makindough]

Wow this is great news

[elcid99]

Maybe old news, but hearing rumors re Oregon & an NCAA investigation should influence Harris' decision. We shall see how this turns out.

[cockypanther]

Just watched Shaq Davidson's film and man can he play some ball. He really reminds me of AJ Green because he has a big body and elite athleticism.

[elcid99]

Looking better & better....220+ today

[beak2]

Scout, I believe, has him listed at 6-2 220.

Drew Owens (6-6, 236)

I know all of these guys can't be on the field at the same time, and they probably wouldn't be best options for 50-yd streak routes, but they would be great for within the 20 yd line. All of them are faster, more athletic, and as good if not better receiving TEs than Cunningham is, which in the last 2 seasons became an impressive statement to make.

Add one of these guys with a 6-4 Brent or 6-4 Smith at WR along with Sanders and Ellington, and we'll have enough height at the receiver positions...

I am a huge fan of our TEs, but you have to admit it would be nice to have a tall WR on the outside to run a fade route for a jump ball when in the redzone. Yes we have Brent and Smith, but we need to sign two tall receivers by the end of the 2014 cycle, to add to the depth at the position.

[CoverTwo]

We need a big body receiver that can physically out muscle someone but still have the agility to get in and out of routes.

That is the problem with our tight ends, except maybe Adams. I don't think any of them can get in and out of routes or create separation which is why we don't ask them to do anything other than crosses and seams.

We pushed for Terry? I didn't think we went real hard for him nor him for us???

[CoverTwo]

USC wanted him but once he committed to UGA a second time, they put the "you can't visit unless you decommit" on him, and it all fell apart after that.

Heck, they even had Whammy talking to him at one point.

[cockywill09]

I bet he commits to Ohio state after his visit....watch damn our recruiting been sucking lately but still think we a solid one for '13 class tho.

He's already visited Ohio State. He set a date after doing so, but the date is this coming Wednesday. He is visiting us tomorrow, we could change his mind, or he could change the date to think about it some more.

[duff18]

There is an article on ESPN.com for insiders. Here is the key sentence in the article: "Foster says his other official visits will go to Georgia, LSU, Miami and likely South Carolina, but there is no specific timeline for a commitment."

Miami is not the spot for this kid. So again, get him to visit and see what happens. Auburn and Bama are all over him and UGA is working the angle that he is from Georgia. Still a long shot.

[Roosterboy]

Well...we have a shot...but I doubt we get the guy...but you never know.
