Push for Gbenda now?

M Tuofono Hawaii -he has great size and film, though I question competition on the island

Football on the islands is better than one might think. I would compare them to midlevel 5A Texas HS football.

That’s pretty impressive, way better than I would have thought. 

Love MT film regardless but him facing half decent talent makes me even more impressed.

Tuofono is gonna be a tough pull from UDUB. Didn't his father play there or someone in his family?  Still, I think it's doable.  I would be happy with a Floyd, Tillman, Tuofono, and possibly a Gbenda haul at LB.  I wanted Davis though.  I just thought he is nasty on the field.  UTs depth at LB is getting pretty thin.  Hopefully Hobbs is better than everyone thought and Ayodele is the stud everyone believes he is.  I was hoping Bimage would be in the mix, but he got spun down to DE.  Maybe overshown fills out and goes to OLB.

Rian Davis is amazing and a top want for me but hopefully it’s not completely over. I also think RD was destined to eventually play with his hand in the dirt.

i would sign up for the 4 LB that texbound states in a heart beat. Glenda film looks good, I don’t know what the issue seems to be as it’s not clearly out there. (That I know about) 

we need 4 for sure. 2 down 

 

[Sirhornsalot]

You don't give up on R Davis. You keep recruiting him. Things change. We'll see.

Meh on Gbenda. Getting Davis would make everything easier but given that we just took a LB from Cali, you can slow down and evaluate other options further. Especially when the season starts.

Sounds like Cine to Georgia could be going down soon as well.... 

 

[Daniel Seahorn]

Well crap.  This one completely takes away the good feeling of getting Shepherd.  There is some next level crap going on at UGA. Did Hugh Freeze get hired there as recruiting coordinator?

It shouldn’t. UGA has been ahead even with a very good OV this summer. Shepherd’s commitment should be celebrated as it’s a big win over A&M and a big need. 

 

[Daniel Seahorn]

Another Tommy Bush scenario? 

Maybe if Bush’s father was also Gbenda’s.

Might be a touch generous IMO.

Which probably makes sense why an offer went out to the Owens kid.

Well, every school has their Uncle Red!

The Georgia situation . . . . 

According to 24/7, there are SEVEN 5-star players from the state of Georgia this year. Compare that to Texas (three 5-star players) and California (two 5-stars).

Most of what you see is Georgia keeping kids at home, which they should be able to do most years. But with so many in that state ranked so ridiculously high, UGA's ranking is benefitting from it.

Jimbo entered the SEC picture at the wrong time. He promised their fan base a #1 or #2 ranked class this year. That will not happen. In fact, Texas may jump them before its done.

Its amazing how aggy has avoided playing Georgia until this year. First time since they entered the SEC. smh

 

[Bear19]

I don’t think they play Georgia this year. Next year I believe.

 

[Bear19]

My wife says it is next year.

 

[okiehorn]

Correct, not on there schedule this year 

 

[shotime73]

You don't let Gbenda go to TCU and beat you, that's what Pat does best.

IT said Gbenda could visit this week before fall camp starts
