Carver Inside Lineman Wants Offer

There were three recruits from Carver High School on the campus of Georgia this past weekend, Gabe Wright, Deion Bonner and Quincy McKinney. McKinney is the only one that is not holding an offer from the Bulldogs at this point, but this does not mean that he doesn't want one. This was the first time that McKinney had been back to Athens since Dawg Night last July and McKinney really liked everything he saw.

McKinney and his teammates were up at 5am on Saturday to see the team perform their matt drills and came away very impressed. After the morning workout McKinney had a chance to catch up with coach Stacey Searels and coach John Lilly and was told that they would be by for his spring practice and spring game. When referring to an offer about Georgia he had this to say to when talking to Kip Adams from UGASports.com "It is Georgia, I live here and that is my home team. I want them to offer me because I think I can bring a lot to them if I were come to Georgia," said McKinney. To read the entire interview click on the link

McKinney currently has offers from Duke, Florida State, Georgia Tech, Maryland, North Carolina and Southern Miss. McKinney has not made anything official in regards to him visiting Athens but he should be back sooner than later.

Gardner most likely gone

David Hale had a really nice post this morning about the potential coaching changes that may happen at Georgia. Here is the link:

The biggest thing about this article that got me going was Rodney Gardner. Gardner seems to me to be more about himself than Georgia Football. If Georgia has offered you a contract and you decide not to sign it then that is your fault. Gardner is always looking for something else every year. Yes, I will admit if we lose Gardner we might take a hit in recruiting this year, but the class we got last year has made a huge impact on our team this year. I would probably say that 90% of those recruits are not going to follow Gardner to another school. Gardner might be able to bring top recruits every year, but he obviously is not a great coach or he would have schools knocking down his door to offer him a position. What is the point of bringing in all these top recruits if we can not coach them to there full potential. If Gardner does decide to leave we should promote John Lilly to recruiting coordinator.

Damon Evans seems to be a little timid in wanting to shell out the cash for a top DC. I hope that he reconsiders this and makes the right decision. Georgia can go two ways right now we can either stay as a 5th or 6th place team every year in the SEC or spend them money and bring in good coaches and get as back in the hunt for the SEC championship and a National Championship.
