Our recruiting national title is about to be taken from us.

A lot of our guys have dropped in the latest rankings that are about to come out due to the "all star performances" which is a glorified scrimmage and a joke.
I was looking forward to the "2020 recruiting champions" banner to be revealed in Death Valley. Maybe next year we can get one. We've got a long ways to go to catch up to UGA.

Meh. . . let Georgia have it. . . again. And don’t look now, but Bama - who has more recruiting titles than anyone - is dead even with us in Championships (and CFP appearances).
So, does it really matter? Or is it just like the ‘score at halftime’?

They historically do less with more than any other program. Soon, once again, they will be woefully slogging to the music, "and another one bites the dust". It's a tune they know all too well.

It may have something to do with the girls they use to "host" their recruits.

The fix is in. We don't fit their business narrative. Nothing you can do. It's still a great class and Dabo will get the most from this group. I like our chances down the road.

I dont understand it, Kevin Swint was rated as a 4 star at the end of season reranking and didn't compete in any all star games but gets down graded to a 3 star with no more data points.

any drama with Clemson.
We sign guys early and they don't flip and decommit and all that jazz that drives ratings.
Also probably don't like Dabo's values.

coaching staff. And of course all of the responses are going to be all "we don't care about recruiting national titles because we want the actual national title." Well here we are, about to be without either one. It's pretty obvious that we are already feeling the effects of losing Jeff Scott. Hopefully Dabo can get it fixed because college football is very "what have you done for me lately," and another season of these pedestrian results will put him on the hot seat.

is an incredible year. I think some people think you have to win the Natty for it be an incredible season.
So, I'm fine with our current situation of simply "making the playoff". But I do get the concern from certain people who are worried that Dabo recruits really well, but maybe not quite to the level for us to actually win the Natty going forward.

75% of teams lose in the playoff.

That only leaves you a 25% chance to win.
That's like 1 out of 4, basically.

It's better to be like GA: qualify for a lesser bowl so our chances of winning go up to 50%.
Kinda like Auburn. It's working for Kevin Steele.

after winning 2 of the last 4 national championships. At this rate Clemson will never make it back to the playoffs.

Who cares? UGA wins championships BEFORE the season. We win 'em at the END of the season.
