Jan 19, 2015 9:11 AM - UgaBlows: Eric, are we feeling better about keeping the two LA recruits now? I hope we don't lose any of these kids, it's a great class
Jan 19, 2015 9:12 AM - Eric: I feel better about Campbell...Still think Singleton will take visits.
Jan 19, 2015 9:15 AM - jeffgt14: Good morning! Eric, is everyone still planning on coming for visits this coming weekend?
Jan 19, 2015 9:15 AM - Eric: Was told that will be day to day...Coach told me that Vic may get pushed back to the 30th.
Jan 19, 2015 9:16 AM - Madison Grant: Couldn't read the Vic article you posted- What was his reaction to the UCLA visit?
Jan 19, 2015 9:16 AM - Eric: Also was told Dylan Jackson is a "longshot"
Jan 19, 2015 9:17 AM - Eric: Its a long article...its free http://ucla.scout.com/story/1503549-alexander-visits-ucla?s=12
Jan 19, 2015 9:17 AM - Madison Grant: Website isn't letting me read it
Jan 19, 2015 9:18 AM - Eric: said he loved it, his mom changed her mind on UCLA and she wants him there, really really high on UCLA but still going to take GT visit.
Jan 19, 2015 9:18 AM - Madison Grant: Okay, thx
Jan 19, 2015 9:18 AM - Eric: "They're going to give me #6 and there is a lot of pressure with that number because of EK," said Alexander. "He won the Butkus Award and was one of the great linebackers ever at UCLA. "I’m planning on coming in to work my behind off and represent that number like he did."
Jan 19, 2015 9:18 AM - Eric: "My mom loved it," said Alexander. "She actually was against UCLA at first, but after coming out, she really loved it. The biggest highlight for me on the trip was seeing my mom change her mind about UCLA. She wants me there."
Jan 19, 2015 9:18 AM - Eric: Next weekend, Alexander will visit Georgia Tech, but said that he's pretty solid with the Bruins. "I'm just going on that trip with an open mind," said Alexander. "I'm really really high on UCLA but I'm going to still take that visit."
Jan 19, 2015 9:18 AM - Eric: a few quotes from that article.
Jan 19, 2015 9:19 AM - Madison Grant: Where will Dylan Jackson likely wind up?
Jan 19, 2015 9:19 AM - jeffgt14: How does being filled up affect the chances of getting OV’s from players for us. It doesn’t seem to affect SEC schools very much because they’re technically never full. Do recruits think differently when we are full vs when an SEC team is full?
Jan 19, 2015 9:20 AM - Eric: LSU, Stanford and Vandy are the main three right now...I would guess Stanford or LSU
Jan 19, 2015 9:21 AM - Madison Grant: Doesn't Stanford run a 3-4 defense? Always wondered how St Amour was going to fit in there, unless they're going to play him at LB
Jan 19, 2015 9:21 AM - UgaBlows: Eric, not trying to stir anything up here, but are we after DE's Jackson, and Anree but no longer recruiting Logan Gray? Or is Gray projected as a LB?
Jan 19, 2015 9:22 AM - UgaBlows: Meant to say WHY are we after...
Jan 19, 2015 9:22 AM - Madison Grant: Logan Hunt, I think you mean
Jan 19, 2015 9:22 AM - UgaBlows: Yes, sorry!
Jan 19, 2015 9:22 AM - jwsavhGT: With Alexander so high on UCLA I say good for him. As someone posted in one of the threads, let's concentrate on those who want to be/stay here & good luck to those who want to go elsewhere.
Jan 19, 2015 9:23 AM - UgaBlows: I hope Vic goes to ucla and not VT!
Jan 19, 2015 9:23 AM - Madison Grant: I'd rather him go to UCLA than Bud Foster wind up with him. NO PLEASE
Jan 19, 2015 9:23 AM - Jerry the Jacket: If Singleton bails do you think we take the next WR on the list or do we look for just the best player regardless of position?
Jan 19, 2015 9:27 AM - Southpaw13: We have 7 WR's plus Qua already, and none of them are seniors and only 1 junior. I'd prefer we go elsewhere with that scholarship if he lleaves
Jan 19, 2015 9:27 AM - Eric: @Jeff its not different for others, they will still visit if we want them to.
Jan 19, 2015 9:27 AM - Oldgoldandwhite: Is the next one on the list the secret player?
Jan 19, 2015 9:28 AM - Eric: We arent after Saint-Amour as much...Hunt isnt on our list.
Jan 19, 2015 9:28 AM - Eric: @Jerry I was told that it will got to best available.
Jan 19, 2015 9:29 AM - flounder: I missed the last chat, so what was this mysterious piece of info that had to stay in chat everyone was alluding to?
Jan 19, 2015 9:29 AM - Eric: @Oldgoldandwhite if we want a WR we will go after someone that is a new name to the board, if that doesnt work then they would turn to Stewart at WR. But thats only if we wanted another WR
Jan 19, 2015 9:30 AM - Eric: @flounder I just wanted the info that if Curry or Walker didnt commit during there visits then they would no longer have a offer from Tech to stay on here.
Jan 19, 2015 9:30 AM - flounder: Oh. Ok. Thanks!
Jan 19, 2015 9:30 AM - thwuga: @Eric @flounder thx was wondering about that as well
Jan 19, 2015 9:31 AM - Eric: Also posted that Curry was no longer a UVA commit and it had been known for awhile he wouldnt end up there.
Jan 19, 2015 9:32 AM - jwsavhGT: Per Savh paper, CPJ is in town today visiting Stewart.
Jan 19, 2015 9:32 AM - Eric: I posted that in the Stewart thread this morning.
Jan 19, 2015 9:33 AM - Southpaw13: So Eric who is left on the board for next available? Marshall... Saint Armour... Dylan Jackson? ... Is there a 'mystery recruit' who you can't reveal their name?
Jan 19, 2015 9:34 AM - Eric: Marshall is most likely to end up here if we get another ship.
Jan 19, 2015 9:36 AM - Southpaw13: I do somewhat worry we could end up in the same position we were in last year with 6 or 7 RB's in one class ... Marshall would only make that worse. I'd have ot think they really like him a lot, see him as having the same or greater potential than the guys we already have on board?
Jan 19, 2015 9:36 AM - BabyJacket1990: Rivals reporting we have a *few* spots left. Any idea on that ?
Jan 19, 2015 9:38 AM - Eric: @southpaw we are going to break this up in to two classes really...We will play 2-3 of these guys at A Back and prob 2 guys at B back that makes them a year apart in classes....They are trying to add the best players on the board right now. They do like him a lot and like that he can play both spots.
Jan 19, 2015 9:39 AM - AlabamaBuzz: Good morning, Eric.
Jan 19, 2015 9:39 AM - Madison Grant: Is Nick Dawson more likely a take at DE, since St Amour and Jackson are heading elsewhere?
Jan 19, 2015 9:39 AM - Eric: @baby I guess we will see who is right come NSD...I dont see us adding a "few" more..I see us adding 1 more max. Not counting decommits of course.
Jan 19, 2015 9:39 AM - AlabamaBuzz: This may have been asked already, but do you think Vic and/or Anree still consider a visit, or is that not very likely?
Jan 19, 2015 9:40 AM - Southpaw13: Thanks, always appreciate your info and the way you do things Eric... some of the other GT sites just don't seem to have the patience you do. It is always appreciated!
Jan 19, 2015 9:40 AM - Eric: No Nick does not have a offer from us...We would have to have someone at DL decommit to consider him IMO.
Jan 19, 2015 9:40 AM - Eric: Anree has already took a OV to GT...Vic will still visit. Or thats the plan as of now.
Jan 19, 2015 9:41 AM - Eric: Thanks Southpaw!
Jan 19, 2015 9:41 AM - Eric: I sent a message to my friend on the staff that said "anree didnt commit to Stanford on his visit" he replied..."should have"
Jan 19, 2015 9:42 AM - Eric: I think we are after Dylan jackson harder right now.
Jan 19, 2015 9:42 AM - Madison Grant: Sounds like Anree maybe wants to play the hat game on Signing Day
Jan 19, 2015 9:42 AM - Southpaw13: Jackson is thicker, correct? Could eventually move inside with that body? Or at least give us more bulk if he stays outside?
Jan 19, 2015 9:43 AM - jeffgt14: Seeing as we may have 1 spot open (if that). Would we take Dylan over Marshall?
Jan 19, 2015 9:43 AM - BabyJacket1990: Would love to close out with jackson,Vic , and Marshall . It's been a long time since recruiting was fun to follow. Anyone else feeling the same ?
Jan 19, 2015 9:43 AM - Eric: I think Anree will announce sometime in the next week but he could end up a NSD guy.
Jan 19, 2015 9:44 AM - Eric: jackson is a bigger body and and yes he could grow into a DE. Good player. More of a set the edge guy than Anree.
Jan 19, 2015 9:44 AM - scotts: When does CPJ meet with the players and finds out who is not ocming back for next year?
Jan 19, 2015 9:44 AM - Southpaw13: Eric how does your Depth chart compare to this for next year...
Jan 19, 2015 9:45 AM - Southpaw13: Thomas (JR) Andrews (JR) Snoddy (SR) Leggett (FR) Summers (JR) Philpott (FR) Chamberlain (SR) Braun (SR) Burden (JR) Devine (SO) Joe (SR)
Jan 19, 2015 9:45 AM - Southpaw13: 2nd string: Byerly (SR) Searcy (FR) Jarrett/Cottrell/Marshall (FR) Lands-Davis (FR) Howell (FR) Jeune (SO) Griffin (SO) Brown (FR) Marshall (SO) Brigham (JR) Klock (FR)
Jan 19, 2015 9:45 AM - Eric: @Jeff I think we would but it is first come first serve still. Jackson would likely want to wait and announce on NSD
Jan 19, 2015 9:48 AM - BabyJacket1990: How would you compare this class to the 07 class?
Jan 19, 2015 9:49 AM - mts315: So are we done with Anree or is he still considered a guy who we would take a commit from if we have an available scholarship? Sounds like the coaches may be done with him.
Jan 19, 2015 9:49 AM - Eric: I have Jeune as a starter at WR, and Gary Brown starting at RT
Jan 19, 2015 9:50 AM - Eric: I have Eason as second string T and Quaide as second string B back
Jan 19, 2015 9:50 AM - Eric: brown at RG not RT
Jan 19, 2015 9:12 AM - Eric: I feel better about Campbell...Still think Singleton will take visits.
Jan 19, 2015 9:15 AM - jeffgt14: Good morning! Eric, is everyone still planning on coming for visits this coming weekend?
