    Good news imho, just as it was good that Kelby Collins and family had multiple multi-day visits to UF. But I will ask, is the size of our DB class an issue for him? I see four DB in the class so far. Would Dijon come if McClain does, or would one push the other? Is Dijon conditional on McClain? Is it more likely each knows how many DB we want and each expects the other to be in the class regardless?

    I think they both know where they stand on our board. We take Cormani regardless of who else we have, and I really don’t think he cares who else we have, other than it will make the team better. Cormani is not the type of prospect who is worried about competition. Dijon is also a top flight prospect, but I would see him maybe more concerned about who else is in the class.

    That was a whole series of good questions. I think both will consider the things you outlined but both are Alphas, and both will expect to excel regardless of what the other does. I do think, however, that Johnson could possibly wait too long and get left out if multiple 5-stars jump on board and 2 or 3 other 4-stars are trying to commit at positions of greater need. McClain is a take - no matter what.

    I guess we hope we get one of the two, while obviously both would be incredible.

    I am sensing some weakness in georgia this cycle. Real or imagined?

    There could be a very legitimate reason why he wants to do it that way. He is still considering his options and needs to think about it, but meanwhile people are pressuring him to commit now. Maybe he is just letting people know he needs more time, and will decide later so they leave him alone.

    If someone has two great job offers, and needs some time to think about which to accept, I don't think it is rude for them to say I'll let you know in two weeks. In fact, I would think that is being professional.

    The sooner the better. Let him start recruiting for us.

    Seeing Devon Moore playing last night had to be good. He was playing on the int in the end zone.

    Toney needs to figure out how to cover the TE, especially when playing UGA, and how to stop the interior run when opponents overload the box or insert a 6th OL like Utah did in the 2nd half. How do we react and adjust.

    Seemed like the plan was to keep in front of him, knowing he was going to get his catches just limit yac.

    As soon as the game was over, I thought about jawja’s TEs and how they are going to abuse us.

    That TE for Utah may be an All American,
    he also had an excellent QB targeting him,
    I don't think it was so much coach Toney as it was Utahs game plan and excellent play.

    I heard the commentators says someone compared their TE Brant Kuithe to Cooper Kupp in how he plays. The dude is no slouch though as he's a 3 time all-pac12 TE.

    Yeah, he's pretty slow but he did hurdle that Oregon defender. Man, on a side note. I feel Oregon is severely overrated. They didn't replace the talent the lost, and Cristobal didn't haul in top 5 classes like people had been imagining
