This to me is really the first sign that the coaching staff is finally firing on all cylinders again. Hopefully it will carry over into all the other areas of our football program. Really need the D-line prospects to commit. That’s the biggest areas of weakness. Drew would certainly be a great pickup. The other thing is that we need to be locking down the best GA recruits EVERY year. Not just this year.

It was a nice surprise if your a DAWG fan to pick up Mitchell, he could be a lock down corner or play WR. If UGA can land those big 3 that are left,Jenkins, Crowell, and Drew, they could compete for an SEC championship next year, of course thats contingent on them actually signing and not switching. RTR, thanks for the respect, need more SEC fans like yourself.

Something special is happening with this group of recruits. They seem to be leaders. They also appear to realize that if they were to join Alabama they would automatically make some other Bama player lose his scholarship due to the oversigning. And they also know that when they are upper classman, they may be the ones to lose their scholarship when Saban decides he wants someone else.

It doesn’t matter if UGA gets Crowell or not because he will never see the field his freshman year because Richt will say “he doesn’t do a good enough job of pass blocking”. How many times have we heard that about freshmen running backs in the last few years. Moreno was obviously our best back and he was redshirted. Ealey was our best back 2 years ago and he didn’t see the field until the season was shot.

Your running back order will be #1 Ealey #2 King #3 Malcome #4 Crowell #5 Thomas. Ealey is the leading rusher for the past two years and has only played in half the games each year behind an incosistent line. King will be a senior so Richt is going to play him.

Before I start, I will admit we have our own battles in Auburn. But we know we have the staff to get the job done with the recruits we are working with.

The “DREAM TEAM” as labeled are good HIGH SCHOOL PLAYERS. None of them have played a down in the SEC or any FBS game.

From previous classes and top 5 and top 10 classes signed by Georgia the current staff has to show any ability to prepare these kids to be a successful TEAM. You can have all the great individual players with all these great personal stats, but there is alot more that goes into championship teams than good high school stars.

Your staff still ranks in the bottom 5 in the conference and there are no signs of getting better.

Keep the DREAM ALIVE, but you are not where close to being a contender in the big boys league.

Winning a recruiting battle in your home state at THE FOOTBALL TOWN in Georgia verses The University of Alabama in the state should not be called a recruiting coup. It should be considered a win that should have happened in the first place.

Give Saban credit, he is doing what Tennessee used to be able to do; come in and grab some very good players to help take him over the top.

Georgia has came in ‘2nd’ a lot over the last few years and it has taken it’s toll. We have lost three our four close battles this year for kids.

CMR does need to grabb these last two or three. If he pulls that off – this class can be a difference maker.

I personally do not believe the ranks are as weak as others. UGA is going to be fine. Which will be great, since most of us are really tired of the pathetic post that have been so constant this year.

CMR deserves this next year. Let’s pull together and root for the guy to get back to where he was (which everyone should remember is the best we had been since the early 80′S).

The “best” players have always been on the field, irrespective of class. Always have, always will. “loyalty” has never been a consideration for meaningful playing time. There is a long list of player beating out others despite seniority under Richt.

The falsification of that loyalty myth is based on assuming that Richt doesn’t play the guy you believe he thinks is best,(that would defy logic and be incredibly stupid of him,) it’s that he doesn’t always think the best player is who you believe. (which is a judgement that should based on direct exposure to the actual players involved).

You do not believe what you just posted. The talent level in Georgia is only topped by California, Texas and Florida. Hince UGA has zero need to come into Alabama to recruit.

Since you went into hiding I will answer it for you. NO! Never.

A BIG 10 idiot came up with that moniker and used the term “Oversigning” when he should have said ” Over committing” and Over Committing is a good thing, that means that the best players want to come to your school and you do not have to go out and beg for them.

It would be great to keep all the committed so far and get Crowell, Drew, and Jenkins . Even though I still think Bobo is over his head as defense coordinator I will admit and alway’s have agreed that he needs to stay on our payroll . Bobo should be promoted to recruiting coordinator and made the coach of the Quarterback’s. That’s where he has proven his value.
Knowing this will not happen, CMR needs to send Bobo to PLAY CALLING 101 SCHOOL after national signing day so he will learn to stick with what is working and stop trying play’s that is not working. And CMR need’s to go to MAKING ADJUSTMENT’S DURING THE GAME SCHOOL, before the 3rd quarter.
Head coaches and coordinator that will admit there is still some thing’s they can learn will go a long way in turning around UGA’s horrible 2010 season.
I put UGA’s 2010 failures about 75% on the coaches and 25% on the player’s. Can’t wait to see the coaching philosophy and scheme changes. If we don’t get that then the coaches and CMR are blaming the players. These kid’s need leadership.
I think Grantham’s defense will show great improvement in 2011 with his first recruiting class and last year’s red shirt’s playing. Georgia will blitz a lot more in 2011 and look a lot like the old Junkyard Dawg’s

The Dawgs currently have 21 players verbally committed with 4 Scholarships left.

Of those 21, 5 are from out of state.

They are currently targeting 3 more from Georgia. Players #1, 2 and 9.

This is going to be a tremendous recruiting class!!!

They are also targeting 2 JUCO players to fill the same position, we only need 1 of these 2.

The amazing thing is Ga has gotten EVERY Offensive player in the AJC Top 50 they have wanted except 2 that are still uncommitted.

They have gotten all of the Defensive players in the Top 50 except 6, with 1 still uncommitted. This is because there were so many good Defensive players in Ga this year.

Getting these last 3 players would mean that the Dawgs got every player they wanted in the Top 50 except 5. That would be amazing!

The Dream Team is alive and UGA’s future looks very bright!

In the NFL the TE’s & FB’s can also line up as H-backs, in fact many teams use TE’s as the FB when they need one. Since we run a pro style attack our TE’s should be trained to be H-Back’s & FB’s too. Our FB’s should be able to line up as H-Backs as well. This would really help if we go back to a fastbreak style attack. CMR wants to be “cutting edge” so let’s run our O at the pace of Oregon’s but use the power elements like Oklahoma’s does in there no huddle attack. The Sooners FB & TE’s can line up all over the field so they don’t have to sub them in & out so much. Also running this kind of O we’d go with a certain package for a series then call plays from that. Instead of just seemingly randomly calling plays.

Move Orson Charles to wide receiver!!! It is the most logic move since Georgia badly needs some talent and experience at the position. Charles is a physical speciman that can overpower corners and safeties, run by the linebackers, and even run by the secondary. The other tight ends have been a disappointment in my eyes since they were so highly recruited, and haven’t produced squat. We need to maximize the talent and size of Orson, not let him go to waste like so many athletes we’ve had before him. Jay Rome should get the opportunity to start this Fall if he can nail down some pass blocking, cause we know he has the physical ability to stand in there.

Malcom Mitchell should be inserted wherever he shows the most promise. Give him the opportunity like Brandon Smith, on both sides of the ball. Use both of them, and you have some dang speed out there and unlimited formations. We have got to get these guys in early and see what we are working with. I could care less about Caleb King being a senior, or Ealy being a third year starter. I want someone in there that can break tackles, has the will to gain yardage, and CAN HOLD ON TO THE FOOTBALL. These kids have a wonderful opportunity to get Georgia back in the thick of things. And these coaches are getting a breathe of fresh air, and a second chance to turn this ship around, so hopefully they will abandon the thought processes of the past few years and play everyone that needs to be playing. It’s not wasting a year of eligibility if they produce.

See what happens, they have no answer and they go to the penis comments and the probation comments.

Just admit it, Georgia Bulldogs are in shambles and will start the season 0-2 and the piling on will begin early and Mark Richt resigns before the season is over( guessing by October 15 2011).

Nothing has changed at UGA to make anyone think this team is going to improve and that is not players, it is not facilities, it is the LEADERSHIP.

We were in the ESPN article, which is where Jeffrey got his idea from.
As for running off players, how do you know a kid is not passing classes, causing trouble, watching film, doing his work? YOU DON’T. Coaches Like Chizik and Saban keep it in house, while your incompetent head coach has to bail out players practically every weekend.

Both/ all three are hack jobs at programs that win and graduate their players( except Ole Miss) .

Crowell will not start at Bama or Auburn. That is why in my opinion he is a Gerogia lock. I cant speak for Auburn but we have Richardson and Lacy both physically strong fast and bruising collegiate backs. I was really impressed with Dee Hart. I think his commitment to Bama aided the decision to Georgia. Crowell his the speed but as with all freshman needs more muscle to take on the pounding of SEC defenses. If Crowell went with Oregon or any other PAC 10 for that matter Big Ten school he might be a Heisman finalist. But the SEC defenses are so physical.

We also have 10 starters returning on defense and with Robbie Green ( former 5 star recruit ) returning from suspension we are now 2 deep at every position. Great opportunity for Georgia to keep in state players.

It has really gotten to be a headache being back on top.

This blurb was in a BleacherReport article yesterday entitled “National Signing Day: Jay Rome and The Top Prospects To Blow Off Major Programs” The article goes on to say “Great players like Jay Rome and many other top high school prospects are recruited by top programs. It is every recruits’ dream to play at a big-time school, but it is hard to decide which one is for them.

Sometimes that decision is not to play at a “football factory” or the current hot college football program that dominates recruiting. At times, simply having the ability to play at home or getting early playing time is enough for a recruit to choose a school over a more major program.”

Articles like this say alot about how many see football at Georgia these days. I guess this writer thinks we’re no longer a major program. Sorta stings a bit, doesn’t it?

With the AJC’s constant, I mean constant, badmouthing of UGA’s football program, the recruiting class being put together by Mark Richt and his staff is doubly impressive. I live in Tennesse, where the Vols are largely immune to criticism by the state’s major daily newspapers. I can understand Georgia Tech being the favorite “child,” it being in Atlanta; however, I see no reason for the constant negative speculation that comes out of the AJC Sports Department. KUDOS to the the Dawgs; bring on Crowell, Jenkins, and Drew (and throw in a great offensive lineman for good measure). Maybe the impact of the AJC is less than I’d thought, but still, there is NO EXCUSE for the constant badmouthing of UGA Football.

Clearly Mark Richt’s announcement of his goal of signing a ‘Dream Team’ from Georgia was, at best, a crap shoot. I mean every year since forever, there have been top recruits from all over Georgia that have opted to go some place else other than stay in the state, Parents that have ties elsewhere…high-school coaches with the same…more aggressive recruiting from schools envious of the talent here…all mounted up to mean that kids had other options – plus, I doubt if many of them had that much state pride that trying to prove that Georgia’s talent was better than Florida’s, or Texas’s, or whoevers, meant something. So for Richt to proclaim that as a goal was setting himself up for ‘perceived’ failure no matter how good a class we end up with.

To me the kids we already have committed are a quality class, but if we don’t get Crowell, for example, the AJC, along with the DawgTrolls that hang out around here, will label it as something short of a ‘dream’.

Keep it up Mark, there are plenty of us that are with you for as long as you want to be here.

I still like Ealey. He runs hard. the fumbles were unfortunate, but at least one was due to him stretching out with the ball , striving to get more. Caleb has just never impressed me all that much. He doesn’t seem to have that drive and desire. Both these guys still have a lot of potential. Maybe having Crowell would light a fire. It is suffice to say that Crowell will not be a solo, overused back like Lattimore.

If you think about it, it is ideal. There is a supporting cast, but not an overwhelming cast like Bama. he would be lucky to get playing time there.

Some of these players may not have an immediate impact. Some will. The indirect impact of excitement, motivation, and competition is huge, however.

If Richt can’t even get to the SEC Title game with Stafford (#1 overall pick), Moreno (1st rd), Massaquoi (2nd rd – starting), Allen (3rd rd – starting), Ellerbe (Ravens D), Owens, Green (top 5 pick), Houston (1st rd), and Atkins (all 16 games – 3 sacks as rookie); what in the world makes you think that the supposed “Dream Team” will be any different?

I’m reading a lot of negative crap from the same so-called fans who were saying Murray was too short and injury prone to compete. I think you will be wrong again.

falcon 34, nobody said this would be a better team that the one you mentioned. That team finished in the top 10 once and top 2 once. We think this dream team can be a catalyst to be better than the team that just went 6-7. That’s what matter today, to improve. Some of us try to keep it in the world of reality and not compare apples to oranges for no apparent reason.

But if you insist, perhaps that Richt HAS been able to get to the SEC championship game with other (list of) names on other team would be “what in the world” reason to suspect he is capable of doing so.

Whatever guys, McGarity has already shot the hole in the bottom of the boat. CMR will be the captain in 2011. Help us bail or get out.

Finally, a good latter part of week and weekend for DawgNation. Not to overreact to high school seniors verbally committing, but each of these fine young men looks excellent in his respective highlight clips. As many have said, Isaiah Crowell, Ray Drew and John Jenkins are pieces of the puzzle needed. Also agreed: we need a foot in five hole, nastiness, hard-nosed O line coach to open some running lanes and give AM time to carve up D’s. One thing is without question: CMR is a man of his word; examine the history. He’s not a man of hyperbole but truth. When he says “we’re really close,” I tend to believe him. Point being: young players out there: NOW is the time to jump on board a program moving back where it has been and should be. Know this: true Dawg fans will always treat you the way you deserve and desire. In closing, thanks are in order for RTR and his posts. I work with a Bama grad and naturally he’s as die-hard as Dawg fans on this board. But he too is classy and respectful when talking about UGA, even in our struggles. As he notes, “We were there not too long ago.” This attitude by he and RTR is what makes college football the greatest of all. The passion never runs low in the SEC and it exists well with respect and camaraderie in conference.
Go Dawgs!!!
