I hope you don't believe that. Lewis informed the coaches and therefore we took Jackson.
 
What a joke they not in his top 5 any then they miss on a guy and come calling. They have 4 db not counting him already signed 3 are rated above him. Goes to show you some guys don't care how hard you recruit them.
 
This recruiting class sure started out strong, but it finished with a whimper.
 
another blow beneath the belt to this staff and the hard work they have put in to have the kid consider them "family"
 
It was obvious that the kid didn't want to come here. The only way he would have ended up here, is if the other three told him no thanks.

Now you say it.....You could also say we picked up two surprise commits, a 2 star with a knee injury & a midget running back!

S.O.
 
Not true.

And now everybody will become suicidal. Woe is us, we missed out on a recruit. Ohz noez!
It's 10:19 AM Eastern right now, we have an entire day ahead of us and we've already had a couple of pleasant surprises. Stop being ungrateful.

Sounds like we ended up with the best situation landing Jackson over him. Thanks for the info
 
Bummer, I can't really blame him. I've been to FSU's campus, WOW, sunny weather and hot bunnies every where!

Let's revisit that sentiment in about three years.

Agreed. Our average star rating is still going to be over 3, which will make it better than pretty much every other class we've had in the past. Sure, the "what might have been" is disappointing, but this is still a very good class.
 
UL just had a cornerback commit dump them for Miami. At his signing day put on a UL hat, then threw it on the ground, had on a U hat underneith.

Redwine, I assume? Don't care what school it is, that is classless.

Justin Forsett

1266 yards 8 TDs

He's a midget too. Except, not nearly as fast.

A 4.38 40 likely makes him the fastest player on the field.

Yep, don't care if it is UL he dumped on that really is classless.
 
I can't believe Lewis did the staff like that. They worked so hard on him for well over a year and FSU comes and 3 days later he signs with them. Glad this class is finally over with.
 
No UL fan but agree Redwines actions were pure classless.

No team or fans deserve that type of behavior

Classless move for a classless coach. Let's not forget who's running that program.

Hmm, I call it karma. How about a school that jerks a kids scholly offer, that had been commited since June, three days before national signing day

Disappointing end to a disappointing recruiting campaign.
This has been a crazy year, and even crazier day in Athens. We had 9 guys flip/decommit over the course of the recruiting season, we have flipped 5 guys towards us. Now today, 3 of those guys who flipped from us have flipped back to us. The LB we wanted so bad committed to UCLA on ESPN, signed the papers but hasn't faxed yet and is having second thoughts, our top signee is there with him and they are talking in a coaches office. Now Van Jefferson who flipped from us to OM, flirted with Mich and Oklahoma is now do OM and us. And we still have a couple of commits who are signing later today. Been following recruitng since early 80's and craziest day, for UGA and quite a few others I can remember.

Its easy to fault the kids for all of this, but if it weren't for clowns like me following it so close no one would ever know they committed. I remember when it use to be a short 2 line note on the sports page of the newspaper. Now there are businesses built solely for recruiting, hours of TV time devoted to recruiting. Is it really all the kids fault?
