Dawgs 13th Commit: Explosive DE

Brandon Burrows committed to the Dawgs yesterday.  The 6'4" 230 lb defensive end had offers from Florida, Oklahoma, Clemson and NC State.  You had me at Florida offer.  The upside -- explosion and work ethic.  The downside -- both knees have been injured, and he's currently rehabbing an ACL. 

Boss Bailey (ACL) and Kedric Golston (Car Accident) were both highly recruited kids who suffered catastrophic injuries early in their SR years.  Both worked out.  My guess is that he redshirts in Year 1 to get bigger and shore up his rehab.  Then we see a 6'4" 250 lb kid at rush end trying to work his way up the depth chart in 2011.

Good luck to Burrows during his rehab.

I could have sworn that ESPNU had him committed to Florida yesterday. It came across the bottomline for over an hour that Brandon Burrows from Marietta committed to Florida.

Did anyone else see this?

I saw that too. Interesting.

Conspiracy, I tells ya. The ESPN conglomerate is pumping Florida up to be their narrative. It's that damn Erin Andrews.

*takes off tinfoil hat*

Must have been a typo. I saw the "other offers" from Florida, et al, they probably just got confused. Either way, he's our verbal commit in real life.

How are we doing on guys we have gone head to head with Florida for?

Maybe guys who commit to you will continue switching to us after they destroy trophies with their arses.

boogers said...

HA! Atleast we are getting tropies!!!!!!When was the last one you won?? Were you born yet? Imagine.... perphaps not a single freshman on your campus was alive the last time you won one.....I would have to say that I am proud to have a trophy to break...or better yet three!

What happened to the "not gonna do recruiting" stuff, huh?


Oh, and I forgot your 40 time.

Tito,

What else am i going to write about? The news flow from the free publications is at an all-time low this summer.

Might as well. Mainly, I'm fascinated that we're signing so many kids that UF is offering.

If you can't beat 'em....get the kids they want. That'll definitely fix it.

RedCrake said...

Fair enough...I walked into that one. Maybe if I work really hard, I can one day hope to represent my fanbase on opposing team blogs with a witty username like "boogers"

boogers said...

lol...the reason i use "boogers" is because we all know how much you Pups like 'em...figure it was a good way to get your attention....

Boogers- you get a trophy for winning an SEC Championship. I graduated in 08 and I've seen the Dogs win 2 of those.
