Feb 1, 2015 9:46 AM - buzz_wiser©: what time do the signing festivities begin weds. will it be online?
Feb 1, 2015 10:32 AM - Eric: Comes on ESPN3 at 8:30
Feb 1, 2015 10:52 AM - GTNavyNuke: Eric, are there any commits who you think are 50/50 or worse to flip?
Feb 1, 2015 11:39 AM - DuckGT: So we are definitely full now, right?
Feb 1, 2015 11:48 AM - Eric: hey everyone
Feb 1, 2015 11:50 AM - CHE90: Eric, can a guy like AJ Gray come in and start right away?
Feb 1, 2015 11:52 AM - Eric: The odds of that happening are very slim, especially since he isnt enrolling early....even Morgan Burnett didnt start game 1. Plus we have some depth there...He could come in and get some PT early on and get more as the year wears and then get a starting job sometime before the year is over...but I dont see him coming in and starting day 1.
Feb 1, 2015 11:52 AM - Eric: @Duck yes we are past full at this point.
Feb 1, 2015 11:52 AM - GTech63: Not until they prove them selves of the practice field
Feb 1, 2015 11:52 AM - CHE90: thanks Eric.
Feb 1, 2015 11:57 AM - CHE90: Which incoming freshman do you think will have the biggest impact for 2015-16?
Feb 1, 2015 11:58 AM - Eric: Tough one....One of the B Backs or Kyle Henderson.
Feb 1, 2015 11:58 AM - GT_B: I wonder since our DL has been thin but with JHD coming back and whitehead playing if Henderson/glanton/anre see a lot of time
Feb 1, 2015 12:00 PM - Eric: Whitehead is a WDE....Jabari a DT...gives us Gotsis, JHD, Kallon and maybe Gamble at DT...I could see Henderson cracking that rotation...I think Glanton redshirts.
Feb 1, 2015 12:23 PM - NorthGaJacket15: Eric... do you feel pretty strongly that we're locked in for Wedneaday?
Feb 1, 2015 12:25 PM - LibertyTurns: Do PWOs sign or jut say they're coming?
Feb 1, 2015 12:29 PM - Eric: @northga I do, feel pretty good heading into NSD...as I said earlier always a couple you worry about but I think we are fine.
Feb 1, 2015 12:29 PM - Eric: @Libery they do not sign, they can change there mind up until they enroll.
Feb 1, 2015 12:29 PM - Wrecking Ball: Why is the Keith Marshall transfer a long shot? We can't afford not to explore adding that level of talent
Feb 1, 2015 12:31 PM - Eric: 1. we are past full, 2 how do we know the level of talent that Keith has now? he is coming off of a serious knee injury. 3 we are full at RB ...Odds are Keith stays at uga
Feb 1, 2015 12:33 PM - UgaBlows: Eric, how does the staff feel about the schedule for next season?
Feb 1, 2015 12:33 PM - Eric: I have no idea, only been talking to my friend about recruiting.
Feb 1, 2015 12:34 PM - UgaBlows: 10-4 thats understandable
Feb 1, 2015 12:37 PM - Wrecking Ball: Looks like he would only get one year to play anyway so that makes sense
Feb 1, 2015 12:45 PM - Whiskey_Clear: all kidding aside about K Marshall....it would not be acceptable to try and recruit a current player away from another team...even the mutts. He comes to us? Different story but no reason to think this will happen.
Feb 1, 2015 12:51 PM - AE 87: @Eric, I know you've been focused on recruiting, but do you know any updated weights on some of last year's freshmen like Simmons and Merryweather?
Feb 1, 2015 12:51 PM - LibertyTurns: Glad he steered his brother in right direction, ie said if you get hurt make sure you still ike your school. speaks volumes about the situation at the cesspool.
Feb 1, 2015 12:53 PM - Eric: @AE I don't, but I will ask.
Feb 1, 2015 12:54 PM - Eric: @AE Antonio Simmons is 235.
Feb 1, 2015 12:55 PM - Eric: going to eat lunch, will be back in a hour or so
Feb 1, 2015 1:09 PM - AE 87: Thanks Eric
Feb 1, 2015 1:30 PM - Madison Grant: (For when you get back) Eric, can you divulge the name of the committed WR that was a possibility along with Stewart?
Feb 1, 2015 1:44 PM - Goatman93: Out of last years class of the ones that didn't play, who do you think could stand out this year?
Feb 1, 2015 2:06 PM - Eric: @madison Rashad Blunt.
Feb 1, 2015 2:07 PM - Eric: @Goatman Searcy, Gary Brown, CJ Leggett
Feb 1, 2015 3:22 PM - GTonTop88: do you think anybody from last years class redshirts as a sophomore?
Feb 1, 2015 3:22 PM - Eric: Simmons and Merriweather are two to watch, they could depending on what happens with others ahead of them.
Feb 1, 2015 3:23 PM - GTonTop88: Thanks
Feb 1, 2015 3:24 PM - GTonTop88: I cant remember, did Que redshirt?
Feb 1, 2015 3:30 PM - Southpaw13: Seems logical thaeither Simmons or Merriweather could RS... Qua did redshirt.
Feb 1, 2015 3:30 PM - Jonathan Dees: any gut feeling on Tadarryl Marshall(sp?) now that he has a Bama offer?
Feb 1, 2015 3:35 PM - DrJacket: I know he has to block. And, he has to run routes. But, at practice last year I watched Qua Searcy at wr for a while. Dude's a serious playmaker. Went up strong. Caught passes at their high point. Ripped footballs away from db's. He looked good to me.
Feb 1, 2015 3:38 PM - Southpaw13: We have as many as 9 seniors that will start or play a lot next year on defense. 8 look likely to start. I hope the defensive staff works hard to get some subs on the field a good bit. They did this last year, I just hope they do it intentionally this coming year. I think the incoming freshmen have a tall order to crack the two deep this coming year, except possibly at DT.
Feb 1, 2015 3:39 PM - Southpaw13: On defense, that is. We'll see a lot of true freshmen on offense.
Feb 1, 2015 5:12 PM - Madison Grant: Eric- How fast is the 2016 A-B Gantt?
Feb 1, 2015 5:12 PM - Madison Grant: Would we take his commitment?
Feb 1, 2015 5:40 PM - Eric: Gantt has some speed...Yes we would.
Feb 1, 2015 5:42 PM - Madison Grant: Just noticed his Hudl film alleges 4.28?? Will he make 4 stars?
Feb 1, 2015 5:49 PM - Eric: He isn't that fast...no clue how the sites will rank him
Feb 1, 2015 5:59 PM - Madison Grant: Thx
Feb 1, 2015 6:00 PM - Madison Grant: Doubtful Bama would take Tadarryl Marshal as QB, I'm thinking. Think they have a commit from some 5 star pro style from California. Does he want to play QB?
Feb 1, 2015 6:03 PM - Eric: He doesn't care too much.
Feb 1, 2015 9:26 PM - Madison Grant: So will Alexander sign w/ us Wednesday?
Feb 2, 2015 12:01 AM - AlabamaBuzz: Feel bad for Vic. Think he is one confused young guy. I am sure our coaches coached him on what to expect from Mora when he spoke with him today, but who knows how that went down?

Feb 2, 2015 10:58 AM - dressedcheeseside: I wonder if our plan to have his OV the last weekend backfired? I wonder if we had him in a long time ago this would have been all sorted out in normal fashion?
