Stupid Georgia... 😠

[Nosboar Accubond]

Crap, wonder if they'll flip?

[The Hogfather]

If Pollard switches to Georgia at this point, to play for a 1st time head coach, with Cheeny as his OC, he definitely has issues.  Surely he and Dee are smart enough to make the right decision.

[ChiTown27]

Crap, wonder if they'll flip?

Unless they've been hoping all along for a UGA offer, I would think not (for Pollard) because our offense looks more promising. Plus, we have a former head coach dedicated to just offense. They have a defensive coordinator as a head coach. We also have some history with their OC. He can't develop QBs. QBs suffer, Pollard will suffer. Finally, to offer this late is a disrespect.

[ceegar]

Crap, wonder if they'll flip?

The only school I was worried about.  I am friends with a father of one of the players in Moultrie.  He told me to beware of Georgia if they offer last minute.  Kirby was in town last week.

[Seebs]

Wednesday evening will be a wonderful thing.

Arkansas offered Charles Clay as an afterthought a few years ago. He told HDN to screw himself and went to Tulsa.

I would like to think the same will occur with Pollard and Walker in their responses to Georgia.

Different scenario.  Kirby can play the " I was just hired and the previous staff overlooked you" card

[RazorWhacker]

So UGA offered Walker while he was on his OV here?

[trphog]

If anything I hope Bret sells the Kirby & Georgia wants to be Arkansas card. Wants our OL coach. Wants our OC. Wants our recruits. Don't give me any little Arky bullcrap either. Kirby has a man crush on Bret.

[Seebs]

So lie to the kids after offending them with a late offer?  UGA has struck out on its initial offers and now is scrambling.  As an adult I see this clearly - not sure what I would see as an 18-year-old.

And  I believe that Walker is still on campus - time for some special one-on-one time from the coaches.

We can play the he was at Bama and should have already known about you card

[bigdaddyhawg]

Finally, to offer this late is a disrespect.

I agree with this.  The kid is a baller, and IMO UGa should have recognized that a long time ago, and the fact they didn't SHOULD be held against them.

Same goes for Dee Walker.

Hopefully Dee and Kiel see the truth of that.

[Steef]

Low class to offer while they're visiting another school.

Already... Georgia is different with Richt gone.

[SquidBilly]

If it takes this long for the home state school to offer, as an athlete I'd wonder how it would be once I got to campus.  Backup plans tend to stay just that.

[zane]

I don't know when we play Jawja again but whenever it is- I hope we beat the ever loving frank out of em

[SquidBilly]

Pollard knows he was high on our wish list due to the amount of time we've been on him.  We were there when no one else was.  Walker liked us enough to commit and seeing how he was wanting a Gator offer I don't see him being that big of a Bulldog fan.

[trphog]

Agreed. +1 if I could.

It's recruiting...its survival of the fittest.  Some can do it while staying classy, others cannot afford to.  If Kirby gets both as a result of this, it won't matter how he did it in the end.

Hopefully they can see through this late offer

[HOGS82]

I thought coaches from other schools weren't allowed to contact recruits while on official visits on another campus... Which means they either called Smart to receive them, or Smart violated NCAA rules in extending them.

Most Likey situation

[Hoot72]

I don't like it, but we would do the same thing.  Something happens, and we decide to offer Crockett -- how would you feel about that?  I believe that we have done it several times in the past.

I agree with you that classy behavior is not a guarantee of victory on the field.

Just in life.

[ricepig]

It's recruiting, just part of the game.

Offering someone late...is business. Offering them while they're visiting another school...is tacky.

[HOGS82]

Didn't think about that. Have to like our odds in that situation... Probst loves CBB & will likely be one to remind them that we saw their worth long before Smart & UGA.

[gchamblee]

if walker knew about it before he committed to us, it is a non issue.

[Steef]

Yes.

[SquidBilly]

Don't think we have ever ignored guys of Pollard or Walkers talents simply to see if we could do better.  Georgia didn't give them the time of day until now, and it's only because Pittman knew about Pollard from his time here.  They whiffed on their first choices and Smart is scrambling.  I wish Coach Propst would have just refused their calls.

[a0ashle]

I dunno, it seems like a rookie mistake not to wait until our coaches are out of reach, I'd rather he get it with our coach in his ear. Also shouldn't he get a star bump now? Or is that only bama?

[HoggusMaximus]

Looks like Cheeny can't do his own recruiting so he just lets Bielema do the work and offers behind him. what a POS.

100% this!

Wow, he definitely looks the part.  Do you know if this was a case of him wanting to look around or have we been on him hard for a while?  247 doesn't even show us offerring.

[secneahog]

Marshall is a stud

No way around it, this is the truth.

I can already tell I will slowly begin to hate Georgia more and more, Im fairly certain our coaches feel the same way.

[HOGINTENNESSEE]

No clue. But Coach Segrest has only been following him on Twitter for a few weeks. So I assume it's rather new interest

[The NewEra]

I see a heck of a mean spirited rivalry developing between Georgia and this staff.

[TNhawgfan]

In the comment section RD said he would know more about porter later but he was confident before the visit. Does that mean he's not confident now or am I reading things that aren't there?

I read it as they thought he'd commit during the visit but he didn't so wait for more news

[a0ashle]

I read that to mean that he already felt good. Generally it would be hard to lose ground after a visit, and that generally doesn't happen at Arkansas.

[a0ashle]

He seems like the type to take it home and weigh on it alone, just the impression I get from how quiet he has been.

Watched his video on youtube. As good as he looked, it was hard to judge because the whole DL seemed to be in the opposing backfield every play.

EFBAB

With NSD this close the coaches aren't in a position to wait much longer...

[The NewEra]

I get the same impression.  He appears to be a very deliberate kid with a solid family structure around him. 

[tophawg19]

We can't gripe about Georgia . We are raiding OKLA ST. the same way

[bigdaddyhawg]

Honestly, I'd feel he should tell us to go fly that proverbial kite.
