"A Hunch"

Living in the Central Florida area, have mentioned more than once that I keep an eye on many of the top players and schools that move on to college football. Believe me, there are a lot of quality young men in this area.

When we were in the "mix" for Orson Charles, most folks in state and out of the area had him solidly in the clutches of UF. Reasonable thoughts and comments, UF was having unprecidented success, and UM was riding high.

I mentioned the fact that Coach Tony Dungy was a close friend with Coach Richt, would not personally rule out OC casting his ballot with UGA. Well . . . . again I have this feeling that some how, some way, Coach Dungy and Coach Richt have joined forces again. Just feel it.

James Wilder, Jr. is truly a great athlete. Works hard, not a loafer, as witnessed by his recent 7 on 7 participation in Oregon. Do not be surprised if JWJ ends up wearing the Red and Black. Would not surprise me at all. Plays both sides of the ball with great skill, however my opinion is that he should be playing linebacker in the 3/4. JWJ is an animal when he puts the cleats on and does amazing things on the gridiron. He has two of his friends wearing our colors now, AM and OC. Never doubt that Coach Dungy had a hand in those two, especially OC.

If UGA had Wilder and Ogletree at outside linebacker, UGA in my opinion would be almost impossible to either run or pass on. Understand that Ogletree says he prefers Safety, that is his choice at this point. Just feel a short time down the road he will be a linebacker.

Again, will cross my fingers on JWJ. JWJ on defense and a certain running back from Columbus would really be incredible pickups for our beloved school.

Go Dawgs. . . . .

Hey Buc, my "guy" says it's between UGA, UF and FSU and some think he will announce before the season starts.

wlayton, really like the fact that UGA is being considered more and more by some of the talented players in Central Florida. Apparently something really registered with JWJ, bringing the family in says a lot for our recruiting efforts. He really has a lot of talent.

Hope we get him. Always trust your judgement on talent...ie. AM and OC !!

Buc/wlayton

just read where he will announce on aug 18th - would be big for uga - might be one of those times where it may help bring in some more big names

getting crowell would be big also - bama is really after him

wlayton, you know that I am in AM's barn. Read a lot about "what if" he gets hurt. My thoughts are "what if" all of the other schools lose their QB. QB getting hurt does not apply to UGA ONLY. This young man has "IT". If UF loses their QB, same thing can be said. If Alabama loses their QB and on and on and on.

Will throw this out there wlayton for what it is worth . . . .
As RabunDog, myself and others have mentioned, Crowell can go to any school that he wants to. Makes me wonder if JWJ and Crowell would both go to the same school. Both want to be "the back", don't think that we can have both in the backfield. Both are studs, no doubt. Would be totally pleased with either young man. JWJ announcing on the 18th of August could be the deciding factor as to where these young men commit. Just a thought from an old fart. JWJ commits to UGA, then I would wager that Crowell commits to UA. Like I said, just an opinion.
