Allen Bailey Eliminates Dawgs from Recruiting Process

Bailey is a stud LB/DE prospect, and he has eliminated Georgia from his list. Anyone trying to downplay his abilities now as badly as UGA appeared to want him until 30 minutes ago is nothing more than a Sour Grapes whiner. He's a talented kid, and the Dawgs would've and still would take him in a heartbeat.

All the grumbling about "We wouldn't promise him that he'd play LB. Everyone else lied to him." That's weak. We appear to have gone hard after him, and we got beat.

As for the bitching about our signing class missing out on 2 or 3 kids this week. Are you freaking kidding me? We have 23 commitments. Most are studs. The ones who are more lightly recruited are at positions where we have extreme need and large numbers. Out of all the kids we most desperately appear to have wanted, we lost two alpha studs in Bailey and Eric Berry. It won't be a Top 10 class because we're signing a kicker and we signed 8+ offensive lineman.

AND because we locked up so many players so early, we're off to a ultra fast start for 2008 already.

If I had the success in my dating life that Coach Richt has on the recruiting trail, I sure as hell wouldn't have time to blog.
