This is a legacy uga kid. His father has stated that his son in no way has any pressure at all to go to uga and he expects his kid to make his own way. Here are the comments from Justice Haynes' father, Verron Haynes, after the visit today. His mom went to UF.
I'd be lying if I didn't say that right now, as far as all the whole recruiting goes, they did the best thus far from the standpoint of courting Justice the athlete and courting Justice the person.
The good thing about it is a few people on the staff I actually know personally. I played with three people on the staff, so I got the really real behind the scenes. So these are my brothers that I bled, sweat and teared with. So it was great to know that it wasn't just a facade. They got a text, 'Haynes is on the ground and all hands is on deck.' It was awesome. It was awesome. Definitely you could tell that he was a priority."
They came with it. I mean, went over to the athletics department and you could just tell that the dean knew about it, what major he wanted. So they had a facility over there where they facilitated him, as far as the journalism part of it, and broadcast journalism, but specifically they knew that he wants to do business, so they were able to show him a portfolio and educate him on that side of it.
It's not one detail that they missed.
When we rolled around to it, their film study on exactly the plays that they run, which is exactly what Justice runs- and they showed the cut-ups, so the variations there of how Justice, the dynamic burst that he has and low center of gravity, the physicality he plays with... he was just able to show the system coincides with what he does now. The verbiage may change, but ultimately it does coincide with each other.
A genuine vibe. Sincerity. He, ultimately, we got the fact that he's going to coach him hard. And here's the thing, he's going to have love for the kid, too. For me, what I look for in a coach is, one, the philosophy of how they interact with their players and his method of teaching, which he was open to learning how each one of his players (responds), because everybody's different. So he wants to know, and he's receptive to, how you learn. He's going to figure out whether you're a visual guy or more of an intellectual guy where I have to go up there and write it and draw it on the board, or do you have to see it and walk through it, whatever. So that lets me know he's patient to a degree and he puts in the time.
It still has a process, right? But that's the way that every recruiting visit should go.
