Gonna Love It!!!

Derrick "freakin" Henry COMMITTED TO UGA........are you KIDDING ME!!!!!!!!!!!

I know a lot of things can change between now and then but as a sophomore last year, IC couldn't even come close to comparing to this kid.......he is literally UNSTOPPABLE.

I know this kid Garrett Scantling (6'3", 200 lbs), he just committed to UGA as a decathlete for the UGA Track team and will walk-on the next year as a WR (he was 2nd in the area in receptions last year, missed being #1 by about 3 catches....GREAT athlete. His brother pitches for FSU at 6'8"). Anyway, he also played CB (on a mediocre team) and said when Henry came around the corner, you could NOT stop him........man among boys. I immediately thought of HW.....6'3, 225lbs as a sophomore.....give me a break.

I know things can change but this at least has the possibility of being the best recruit SINCE HW.......TRULY mean that....he's a freak of nature.

BIG.....BIG news on Henry, let's just hope he keeps the committment. Big coup for CMR (if he's around).

Big people....BELIEVE me. (see...5 of em for ya'll)

wlayton, don't know what it is with you and these running backs. Don't care, keep doing whatever it is that you are doing. You said sometime back that Henry was a very special athlete. Did some research and watching him tote the rock, impressive . . . more than impressive, Herschel Walker like. Great, great get.

ogredawg, thanks for the information. John Theus impresses me as much as Henry. With JT commiting, should lead to others wanting to be a part of this program. Friend has to be beside himself. New Oline coach and gets a player that many rating services have at number one in the country.

I am going to say this, not trying to be negative.

We get as many top flight football players as any school in the country. Pretty close anyway. I sincerely hope that we have the coaches that can take this talent and coach them up.

Also have said before, I recognize Richt to be a very good recruiter, and Bobo gets a few himself . . . . . what counts is what they do with the talent they bring on board.

Incredible night in Athens, now let us get greedy and wish for more.

Buc.....this is a huge "coup" for CMR. He may be a top 3 best recruiter in the country.

NOW.....imo.....with this coup along with the seious recruits he's already signed, again, imo.....he may have bought 2-3 more years with McGarity.

McGarity knows that if CMR goes, a lot of these recruits are gone as well. Theus, Henry and Ramsey (btw....he's INCREDIBLE too, great size, speed and strong arm....big time QB) are recruits you just don't find every day......McGarity knows there will be more to come as well especially with recruit's families seeing what's going on today in college football.

Bodes well for the character of CMR.......who wouldn't want their kid to play for him??

With these recruits.......geez, I could coach them to 10-2.

Btw people, do yourself a favor and youtube Derrick Henry......oh..... most of the film he's in, he was a freakin' FRESHMAN.

wlayton, this morning I have been all over youtube. Had watched Derrick Henry back some months ago when you brought his name to the board. Actually, guess it was a year ago, could chase the post down, won't. One that I reviewed again today was a kick off return he made against Bolles. WOW!

Years ago UGA pulled a lot of players from Jax and the surrounding area. Means a lot to see us getting talent from that area again. As you know living there, many call Jax South Georgia. Muschamp is showing up all over this state, working his butt off, these signings by UGA will show some folks that UGA has not rolled over and quit.

Also believe that you are on with Richt and McGarity. Richt needs to hitch his britches and get totally involved with the task at hand. Starts winning games, it could end up that Richt has a lifetime job, he has said that is what he wants. Just do the necessary things, leave personal feeling out of it and win.

If you haven't checked Ramik Wilson out, do the youtube thingy and watch this player. He is an animal. Like you mentioned Walker when you spoke of Henry coming aboard. Ramik Wilson reminds me of number nine, Ogletree. He will probably get special teams right off of the bat, will not be surprised to see him get playing time. He is an animal. I have some connections with USF, they wanted Ramik as badly as they have wanted anyone in the recent past.

One last wish . . . . don't let Theus be the only qualiy offensive lineman we sign this year. I am ready to be surprised again, did not think what happened Friday night could or would happen. Shows what I know.

Watching the British Open, nasty, nasty weather. The war for Independence looks better all the time . . . . . .

I'll start this post by saying I will always bleed Georgia red and will always pull for UGA, no matter what. That said, if Richt doesn't beat UF this year and at least compete until the end, if not win the East, and what you say is true, wlayton, and Richt is retained due to his recruiting ability and not his coaching ability, I won't spend another dime on UGA anything until he's gone. Would that make a difference to anyone? Besides me, probably not, but it's the principle.

Buc, Im watching the Open as well.....too funny your comment about Independence....and accurate

Also watched Wilson.....you are dead on about him......as a hitter, he reminds me of one of my favorites, Thomas Davis (have his jersey). Will take your head "clean off".
