Recruiting 2020 Recruiting Thread: Gervon Dexter gets 5th Star on Rivals

[5-Star Finger]

Probably more accurate.

I laughed.

 

[lizardbreath]

Probably more accurate.

The more stressed he feels, the higher the volume and pitch of the giggling becomes. It's a surprisingly good look for him really.

I'll tell you this. If you ever wanna get pissed, read laws posts in any recruiting thread ever. I've been reading em for years and it still does the trick. Its a gift.

Excellent points all, but then the no need for star WRs in this offense also feeds into evaluating a Mullen class. After all if you are not going to use a star WR very much it is not clear you want to sign one and create a malcontent on your squad.

Mullen has recruited 5 4* receivers 2018-2020, losing Watkins to disciplinary issues and waiting for Henderson. (Per Rivals)

Over that same time, UGA has recruited 1 5* WR and 6 4* .

That looks like a significant gap until you factor in that Mullen also recruited Grimes (5*) and Jefferson (4*) as transfers.

That’s a difference of just 1 4* WR over 3 classes - because of Watkins’ disciplinary issue.

Mullen seems to be recruiting quality WRs well. I agree the trenches are far more important but this idea that he’s only recruiting blocking WRs or that good WRs don’t want to play in his system isn’t accurate.

Since Mullen left MSU and they hired the high octane offensive guru, they’ve recruited just 2 4* WR in 3 classes. Mullen recruited just 3 4* WRs to MSU his whole time there. It’s very different so far at UF.

Sorry.

It's going great again. Diamonds in the rough and stuff. Our kids just didn't camp. Under the radar. 3* whisperin.

Recievers don't really matter in either offense.

Hell, they don't matter in the SEC. There were two 1000 yard receivers in the entire fvkking conference last year on one of the two had 15 games to do it.

The problem with adding in transfers is that we can’t possibly keep track of every team and who they’ve had come in. We see the good and bad at UF because we follow so closely. But other schools are getting pickups in the portal as well. So while I agree with you in theory that Grimes and Jefferson are additions that should be counted, you could easily argue that uga benefited greatly by bringing in Robertson, a consensus 5* from Cal. So how far does that extend their current talent lead? It’s just too complicated.

But I do agree that any judging of what he accomplished at MSU is pointless. He’s done an ok job here so far given all the circumstances, but also needs to step it up because ok isn’t going to cut it.

The whole point of the discussion SD and I were having is that your entire post is irrelevant to ranking a UF recruiting class given the offense UF is running. As of now UF does not use WRs much so having a bunch of good ones is nice I guess but likely to have less impact on the field than many other positions.

It depends on whether or not he’s got a QB that can make the right decisions and throws on a timely basis. Yes, he uses the threat of the QB as a runner to open space for other runners as well as the passing game. But when he’s got a good QB the passing game is good. SOS was of course throw first but that opened up a great running game. And SOS didn’t always have good QBs either.

Mullen’s 3 years at UF, the team’s passing yards exceeded SOS’s at SC. Even in 2011, the year SOS went 11-2, Mullen’s MSU offense had more passing yards (2368) than SC (2339).

Ideally you want quality WRs to take advantage of the openings the run threat offers and a QB who can deliver the ball.

Georgia had the #1 class in the country last year per Rivals (2nd in 247). We were 8th (9th in 247) before we lost Steele, Jones, Black, Hammond, Wilson and Henderson. I know our concern over losing so many players was fake news because Dionte Marks made it in and all, but this showed our 8th spot was based on lesser/riskier prospects (either due to distance, character or grades). Remember that by all accounts Zipperer and Summerall were also grade risks, we were just on the lucky side of those. Hopefully, they don't burn out of school as early transfers as a result.

Accounting for the rapid, mass attrition, we end up about where our spending ends up, the low to mid-teens. Calling BMF or I stoned over this is the ultimate burying your head in the sand reaction. "Recruiting website bias" is not the full explanation for these discrepancies.

He's a homer. That's how all of his posts are. If you aren't pumping sunshine he's not happy. He still has Butters dick taste in his mouth.....

You guys are so narrow minded. Yeah ... I am a homer and a bit of a pumper. But I am also pretty realistic as well as wholistic. Do you even watch college football or do you just stalk high school kids on the interwebz?

3 Loss season?

Im not that impressed with essentially being Georgia under Donnan, and that's what we've been in our best years for the last decade.

And I stalked your mother last night, Trebek.

Who is impressed with a Donnan coached Georgia team? I know this Gator aint. We've sucked throbbing blue-veined donkey schlongs for the past 10 years. Loss to Kensucky and Mizzwho?i last season really stood out as a big ole "You better do better Coach Mullen or you won't be here very long" and I recognize that just as much as the next level headed orange and blue thinker. But for the love of Gawd ... the endless moaning and groaning by the pedofiles here (thats what I am calling them now ... because they lust after 16-18yr old boyz) about how horrible we are gets really freaking old. And to be honest, while most of them have very good insight and make valid points, they just continue to go over the top with it to the point where it undercuts the point they are making.

There is A LOT more going right for the program over the last 1.5 years than wrong. To compare what is going on here to Donnan or ole Yellow Tooth is disingenuous. But I get it ... its a message board ... and this is the pedofile thread. Some here are Sensitive Salleys.

My Mom said you are a Twatwaffle.

EDIT: And for the record, my pumper2dumper timer is getting long toothed ... so I am about to be a dumper until we get another big time commit.

It depends on whether or not he’s got a QB that can make the right decisions and throws on a timely basis.

I think it depends on whether or not he can do anything else. My impression is that he passed a lot with Prescott ONE SEASON not because Prescott was so good, but because his team could not do much else. Maybe I am wrong about that, but if I am right then your argument is moot. Recruiting skilled passing QBs or WRs who can get open even when the rushing game is struggling is season in and season out not important in this system.

We probably will never know for sure on this with Frank though hope springs eternal, but in the future maybe we will see.

I hear you. And we didn’t have great backs - no one could beat out Kestahn Moore - so in comes Tebow as a freshman QB and Harvin as a WR into the backfield to get the production. Leak passed a good deal his senior year. Tebow could do it all and did. I recall Mullen and Meyer both throwing the term “manufacture”. I like that about Mullen.

I’m very curious to see how Franks progresses. He was a highly regarded but “raw” talent, so continued big steps up should be possible IF his head and work ethic are solid. His leadership and protection calls will be important to the OL too.
