National Signing Day Coverage

[Sarrick]

Looks like Ball isn't coming here then. This is scheduled at the same time as his announcement.

Ball and Mathews likely heading to Arkansas and Auburn, respectively. I think this is it for us today and we probably pursue one or two for February.

 

[GT_EE78]

any 4star surprise today?
wishful thinking
any expected who didn't sign?

 

[GT_EE78]

Everyone is in.
DE will be interesting, especially if Clayton comes back.
Clayton & White
Harris & Jordan
Ivey & Kennard
Then other combinations in between.

Thats a lot of guys there.geez and a talented group
I was thinking Jgriffin could move there if he's quick enough
278 is a bit small for DT
No need for a 3man line anymore!

 

[VintageWreck]

YESsir!

Biggie ZEEK!

 

[Oakland]

Looking at the most recent 247Sports recruiting rankings, we're at #39 nationally and 9th in the ACC. Earlier we were #37. We signed one 4 star. Last year we signed four 4 star players.

Rankings are going to be a bit misleading with this class since it is smaller (16 commits) and we took 5 transfers who aren't going to count at all. Rivals has us 33rd and 7th.

 

[SWATlien]

Did Sagar get processed?

Yeah

 

[SWATlien]

Today is done. They’ll see what shakes out for February, if anything.

 

[JacketRacket]

Yeah

Source?

Tough year were the staff couldn’t really recruit. That said with the transfers coming in GT is in a real good position.

 

[SWATlien]

Source?

Well he’s not signing.

We definitely went heavier on transfers. I feel good about the talent we took in through transfers. I think the transfers would bump us up compared to other teams if they counted.

He was 100% Arkansas last night on Rivals.

 

[Tadams6599]

the transfers all have a year of S&C too, a huge plus compared to a true hs kid coming in, i really like our signing class and someone said one four star, but wasnt tatum, blackstrain, and kaleb edwards all four stars?

Think the staff is going for transfers to try and buy success on the field in 2021 while the new recruits mature?

 

[mtodd30]

I think the production from this class (recruits and transfers) will speak greater volumes than our ranking

 

[bos]

No surprises, no flips, no fun hat picks.

Still a decent class. On to February and 22' class.

I think Griffin is the right size to play 3-tech, especially at the college level. Ironically, after all the emphasis fans have put on trying to find big guys to play 1-tech, we’re going to have more depth there than we will at 3-tech, which should be the easier DT spot for us to recruit. I hope some of our SDE recruits can add some good weight and play with quickness at 280-290lbs.

Most of these transfers have 4 years of eligibility. Practically like getting recruits out of high school
