BTW, this makes us #3 on 247, behind Texas and Texas A&M. For the moment.

A beautiful start to the recruiting class, no doubt. Landing legacy guys is good; going to Georgia and landing a highly-sought-after OL (beating out Saban and Boom in the process) is much better.

Now, now- I'm sure that anyone connected with Alabama, Florida, Ohio State, Notre Dame, USC, etc., etc., etc., ad infinitum, would tell you that THEIR respective offers were "non-commitable", whatever the hell that means. :laugh:

You old guys - remember back when a lineman was hit in the eye and injured by an official's flag that brought on a change on how NFL officials could weight down their flags?

That was Orlando Brown, Sr. that got hit in the eye.

Orlando SR. passed away in 2011.  My dad and I were watching the game that day when the flag incident happened.  Not knowing the damage that had been done to his eye...

He has the potential to be a BEAST OT. He will need some time in the S&C room to lose about 40 lbs of bad weight, but the kid has great athleticism for his size.
