Recruiting 2017

We cancelled Sanders visit the week before he was to come. Guess we saw something that changed our minds. He is hard to figure out....if you simply go by his 4 star rating. Why were major schools not trying to get him? Steve mentioned that he ran a high 4.6 forty, so that's the only thing I've heard that would hold him back.

Check out his rating on 247 and rivals. He's a mediocre 3-star on 247 and the #84 player in GA on rivals. So I would question that 4-star rating on him before I would question why schools weren't going after him. He's small and a bit slow. Not a good combo.

The hype articles around Couch and Todd will be ridiculous this spring/summer

Define "fine". We have Some decent slot guys and Gray. We have to hope some others work out because they sure haven't proven it yet. If by fine you mean good enough to beat mediocre SEC defenses, then yea. If we are going to scare anyone with a decent defense we will have to have some people step up that have never played before.

I think "fine" means we will have guys on the roster playing the position. That's about it. To be honest, for all the grief that Hevesy gets for not recruiting any OL that have stuck in the NFL, our WR coaches under Mullen have not put any WRs in the NFL either. And its even worse, I mean at least Hevesy coached Gabe Jackson his entire career and he is a good pro but we don't even have that at WR. If Fred Ross gets on a team and sticks he would be the first to do so under Mullen and crew. I'm thinking Ross is 50/50 to make a team and stay in the NFL for a few years. The biggest issue is not coaching at WR though, its just the fact that we don't sign WRs that have the level of talent to play in the NFL.

I remember another guy who could get open and catch the ball who was small and a bit slow.....Jerry Rice, nobody wanted him either.
