NICE!!!

good to hear he is serious about FSU. I have read on here were people said they didn’t want him to take an OV to FSU because he would be recruiting for UGA the whole time.

Still think this is a battle between UGA and UF.

Definitely not. UGA just won the SEC East. In any case, JHC is on his visit high. Let him come down and we’ll see how he feels.

Very possible

Depends on who we had to play out of the West. We’d be 1-0 already. :)

Still think we would have been right in the game

Lattimore is a special talent but our defense was very good versus the run and SC didn’t exactly have a Spurrieresque passing attack. Plus we might have had them after he went down. Plus what if we had a healthy team as well? Still firmly believe we would have had a very good chance at the East had we been in there.

I get what you are saying.

But with all the injuries we had last year, it really isn’t a fair question. At least not if it is being framed as, we (the FSU team) couldn’t handle the preseason pressure .
I think without the injuries, and if our luck would have been as equally good as it was bad, their is no telling how good that team could have been. I think an ACC Championship would have been a given, and a BCS Bowl for sure.
As for UGA, I have no opinion.

Atlanta was recently named the 9th best city for the arts by style magazine. Its the art mecca of the south. It also has the largest percentage of tree and forest coverage of any major city in the US at 36%.

Its also the capitol of Hip Hop and R&B. Think about what kind of music college kids listen to. Think that’s maybe appealing to them?

Let’s not act like Atlanta is known for great hip hop artists. For every Outkast, there’s 10 Waka Flocka’s. Atlanta hip hop is carried by beats/production and the club scene/strip clubs.

That's because a lot of people...

are trying to make money because Atlanta is the Hustle Capitol of the World and supports itself. But you’re right about the club scene and strip clubs. That is very big business in Atlanta.

Would rather get him since its a 3 way race

And just have him finish at UG if not us. I dont hink it will become a 2 way between us and UF between now and then. So bottom line. Hope for G&G or stay in Georgia

There isn't a recruit in the HISTORY of college football that I wouldn't prefer signing with Georgia instead of UF.

out of the 3, do you think he’d see the most success behind our Dline? i can’t see many offensive linemen getting to the second level against our front

obviously i’d love to have three 5* linebackers, but do you think our dline is reaching that elite level where the 3 and 4* linebackers will all look like 5* guys?

The difference between 4 and 5 star re hits

Is not that big. Alabama had the best unit in the nation and only one was a 5 star and I don’t think he was a consensus 5 star.

by mobilematt12 on Jan 22, 2012 12:49 PM EST up reply actions  

Its a pretty big difference

Far fewer 5* players. Depending on service some have less then 10. some have 20, while having usually a couple hundred at least 4*. Border line kids that are literally a single evaluation point for 5* may not matter as much. But over all stars matter. And that is something we have discussed en mass. With all the numbers backing it up. I would always take a team of 11 on defense with four 5* four 4* and three 3* then a team with two 5* eight 4* and one 3*.

Depends on the evaluator

Saban said that Hightower was best lb prospect in the country and he was a 4 star. My point is that their are a number of 4 star prospects not far from 5 star recruits. There are countless examples. Tide defense had 2 5 star recruits this year. I would say that was a solid unit.

Still think this is a “visit high” comment. I’m hopeful but he is most likely UGA/UF bound. If so, please let it be the Dawgs.

I'll be perfectly happy if

JHC goes to Georgia and not UF. FSU is a program moving in the right direction, but Georgia has a bit more to offer. The opportunity to play in a 3-4 defense(most NFL teams run 3-4),SEC, excellent college town, SEC, close to home, SEC, hour and a half away from Atlanta, SEC. I am glad to hear that FSU is doing well on official visits, now we just need to start winning at a high level.

Most NFL Teams Don't run a 3-4 defense.

It is much easier to find pass rushing DEs, then is to find pass rushing OLBs, in 3-4 who are also good in pass coverage. JHC is probably going to UGA, but you never know with HS kids.

by Oort Cloud Nole on Jan 22, 2012 3:45 PM EST up reply actions  

Oops

and yeah 3-4 OLB’s don’t exactly grow on trees.

I'm I the only one surprised that we look like we're gonna close strong?!

I shouldn’t be with the track record of this staff but for some reason I expected us not to close as strong as we appear to be doing on the recruiting trail, pulling guys (or at least gaining interest) that I thought we really had no shot at…

From Rivals "free" section (public info)

Top unocmmitted recruits and predictions where they’re going.
Goldman and Darby got all six picks for FSU.
Howard solid to UF, JHG solid to UGA and Peat solid to Nebraska.

That picture of Andrus Peat does not look like someone who would be a 5* OL, or any kind of High School Sr. Football player..

Now take a look at - L.Williams, T.Johnson, or E.Goldman, them are some GAM that look the part.
I guess that just means that A.Peat still has a lot of growing to do, at 6’7" 305lbs, that is really scary. I hope that Man Child ends up in G&G, along with E.Goldman, R.Darby, and L.Williams. Of course I would love to see all of them on that list in G&G, but that isn’t reasonable to even the most optimistic of us. So I will take those 4, with A.Peat as the biggest reach.
