WR's How many do we take? We are in it for a lot of them

4 would be nice. Would only take 5 if it meant premier receivers are banging down the door to try to get a spot, i.e. multiple studs not currently being discussed to join Bruce and hopefully Richards.

Bruce, Richards, and Victor should be the top three priorities. No idea if the Richt hire means guys like Eddie McDoom or Pie Young would give our program a second look, but I'd be interested in making a run at them.

And you let Hardman play whatever the **** he wants. Let him play both ways if he wants. Just get him here somehow.

We need receivers badly. With this much talent (again) in South Florida, we should take 4-5 of the best, and many of them would be getting plenty of early playing time.

Are we out of it for Cavin Ridley?

we have Bruce and Phillips who do the sane things as Cavin

Except Ridley is 5 inches taller than Bruce. We should obviously still keep Bruce, but I'd drop Phillips if Ridley wanted in. We have to stop letting the elite talent out in favor of "guys who do the same things". That's what we told ourselves with Calvin Ridley, Amari Cooper and Dalvin Cook. No one does what they do.

I don't see Cavin as an elite talent, you just can't get everybody.

I don't think anyone said that about Cook, Calvin, and Cooper, I expected both Cooper and Calvin to be Canes, Cook was never coming.

Oh but they did. And no, we can't get everybody but we can get the best ones and it's been done before. It's probably too late, but it should be our mindset for the 2017 class and beyond. I have confidence in our new coach to do that.
 
Sticking to receivers, Richards and Victor. Drop Henderson because he'll never it academically. Mullins from what I "hear" has academic problems also, so adding Richards and Victor gives us security. I think all the uncommitted big time players will now take us seriously.

Yeah I'd be a year late if I were talking about his brother Calvin Ridley who's currently at Alabama. But I'm not.
 
Is Phillips legit or is it possible richt will go for someone "better"?
 
Oh **** my bad don't I feel like an idiot lol.....carry on

We need DBs, ol and DTs in the worst way. WRs are not a problem, and should never be a problem anymore.

Did you see the WRs this year at Miami? If Coley leaves it is pretty bad plus we only got one WR last year. This year at UGA they only had one good WR.

D money opinion on victor? Im not big on him but its hard for me to get a read on wideouts at that size i have always struggled reading them

Have to study him more. I never saw him live. On film, he looks more explosive and sudden than Henderson.
 
My impression is that Coach Richt likes big, rangy receivers. Would he stick to that or will he take some of the smaller/shorter guys that are common in South Florida?
 
I do not think Henderson will be qualifying.

On Mullins, as early as the Clemson game I have been told through people close in Mullins circle, that the grades have improved. TIFWIW

I don't think we will be landing Hardman.



Victor has improved this year. A lot of people on this board know I've never been too high on him. My main stab on him at the moment is I'm worried how much will his speed be effected, adding needed muscle and mass to his frame. Victor runs an electric 4.72, I've seen him in person at the Shootout, no bigger than 160.

Take 4 if one of Richards or Victor joins the fold.

If both come, take 5.

Bruce
Mullins
Phillips
Richards
Victor


I really want Richt to keep Phillips. Dynamic, fast and cannot teach what he did to some of the tri counties best defenses. Take him and figure out his role when he gets here.

Killins actually a kid I mentioned in my previous recruiting update. Keep an eye on him if Richt likes him as a utility, akin to Joystick McKenzie.. ;)
 
Brandon Johnson legacy of Charles Johnson? American heritage? Teammate of Brian burns

Saw them on a flight back from the lsu camp. Both looked like players

He is.

Victor moves pretty well for a kid his size, but he's still very very light. As I mentioned in my post above, he improved this year. I'm worried more now with how his speed will be effected with added weight and muscle. Good S&C and he can get a bit bigger and faster, but not everyone the same.

If hardman wants in you definitely take him but idk if that happens. We need a back up plan if Mullins isn't making it in.
