He tried the academic route. It wasn't for him. It's about football period.

Probably right. And the football is definitely not about being in a run-oriented offense, which is what we are.

Plus the car or truck or suv he wants plus all the other fringe benefits he will get at ugly on top of staying in the gym all day long . Education my a—- he’s like 90 percent of the players at these types of semi pro football. teams . THWG !!!

Sure but the extra irritating part here is, if you recall, Roberson pretended to be interested in Georgia Tech’s level of academics. Hence his original choice of Cal-Berkeley rather than some football factory. (Not to mention he practically played an A-back position in high school.)

To see him transfer back in-state to go to the cesspool instead of becoming a Yellow Jacket is extremely disappointing.

Let’s enjoy this funny memory here:

“Commit to the g like you were supposed to”...as if the kid has to do what his “masters” want instead of making his own choice. I see plantation mentality is alive and well among uga fans.

Never heard of her

After watching that video, it is obvious that is what he is looking for. He wants to develop at WR in order to play on Sunday. Do we really think we can offer that? Player development for the NFL at WR? I'm not talking about just blocking, but running more routes than a vertical jump ball.

And he is going to get this at UGA? Georgia is a run first team as well with a pro-style offense. Fromm primarily throws 8 yard out routes.

And they have about 10 other 4 or 5 stars.

He made a choice that’s going to stick on him the rest of his life. That’s his problem, not ours.

 

[ATL1]

He wants to play on Sunday’s, UGA offers the best chance of him getting the attention needed for him to do so. He’s not having to learn to play A-back for a system that will target him once maybe twice a game as a receiver. He made a business decision, not mad about that.

There’s nothing wrong with a UGA degree.

 

[iceeater1969]

iirc, he had a difference make relative that was a g t grad. guy had come through gt and was well thought of by the family .

Rightfully, we spent lots of coach and recruiter time courting this native ga guy.

i wonder if the new wider net recruiting had some roots in this kid.

He’s not getting a degree. He’s playing football and he made the only wrong choice possible out of all the selections he had available. Sorry it’s a vile program that’s only getting worse.

 

[Lavoisier]

I really don't know where this false narrative of UGA putting WRs into the NFL came from. If any university is WRU it's Cal with Keenan Allen and Marvin Jones Jr both being top 10 in receiving yards this year and DeSean Jackson putting up 600-700. UGA has AJ Green with just over 1000 and Kirby Smart had nothing to do with him.

 

[GTonTop88]

Haha, Uga isn’t much of WR factory. They run the ball almost as much as we do.

40 arrests in the last 6 years and a 41% graduation rate. Sounds like the perfect place for a guy who values academics and a high level Civil Engineering Degree. I guess rumors his Mom was in ailing health were false. She always wanted him to go to Georgia Tech, so there’s no way he would shove that in her face during a rough time.

I just want a guy who can do this:

18 5-star players is what i heard on 680 this morning

6’ 185 lbs and injury prone doesn’t sound very promising for the NFL

Best team money can buy. Yet 2 of the last 5 years they haven't even finished as a ranked team. Its absolutely amazing they can do that poorly, while playing in the single worst division in all of P5.

Sorry I should have specified I meant he’s competing at WR against a ton of 4 and 5 stars.

To be fair, 3 of those 5 years were under a coach who was fired for performing at the level you mention in your post. Jury is out on their new guy. I remember how a lot of GT fans held on to the idea that Dabo was a clown for several years. Try as we might to think of ourselves as logical engineers, I think bias can creep in in these type of conversations. I am not saying CKS will be Dabo Swinney...I am just saying there isn't enough data to conclude that the trend will continue. It may..and we hope it does. But I think it's a bit early to draw any conclusions about Uga under their new coach.

With dozens of 5-star players, being in the weakest division in P5, there is simply no way they can't win 10 games. Of course, Richt won 10 games a few years ago and didn't finish ranked because of how awful their schedule was.
