Roquan Smith announcing Friday
February 11th, 2015 at 7:07 PM ^
Just in time for our Friday posbang thread!!
February 11th, 2015 at 7:26 PM ^
Is there still a scholarship available for him when he commits to Blue?
February 11th, 2015 at 9:11 PM ^
So who's going to gut cut/have to take a grey shirt for Michigan to make room for him?
February 11th, 2015 at 9:27 PM ^
Problem solved.
February 11th, 2015 at 10:55 PM ^
Well done. Things like this is why I enjoy this blog.
February 11th, 2015 at 8:51 PM ^
around 12:01 AM.
February 11th, 2015 at 10:08 PM ^
What could go wrong?
February 12th, 2015 at 2:12 AM ^
I think the Friday posbangs now start at 12:01 AM EST.
February 11th, 2015 at 7:07 PM ^
especially given what he's gone through. He seems like a great young man and one whom I'd love to see Go Blue!
February 11th, 2015 at 10:38 PM ^
Would be a great addition to the class. But if Roquan wants to attend Georgia, I support him.
February 11th, 2015 at 7:08 PM ^
The Michigan university
February 11th, 2015 at 7:46 PM ^
U FUKIN WOT M8?
February 12th, 2015 at 2:17 AM ^
Nah... he's got a Fuck Lion.
February 11th, 2015 at 7:10 PM ^
Do we have a realistic shot?
February 11th, 2015 at 7:27 PM ^
He did an interview today and basically said its UCLA or Georgia with a Georgia lean. Said he has talked to Durkin only once or twice

February 11th, 2015 at 7:56 PM ^
had some pretty negative things to say about UCLA, though... they don't even offer an undergraduate business program which is his major of choice
February 11th, 2015 at 8:54 PM ^
It's bc Smith keeps googling contact info for Coach Durkin at Michigan University... and gets no matches found
EDIT: supposed to be a response to East German Judge, but something got messed up
February 12th, 2015 at 1:27 AM ^
If this is a problem now, why wasn't it a problem when he was ready to sign NLI with UCLA?
Seems petty to bring that up now. Just sayin'
February 11th, 2015 at 8:16 PM ^
If he has only spoken to Durkin once or twice, that is very disappointing. Can anyone surmise why we have not shown enought interest in him unless he has told the Michigan University coaches No!
February 11th, 2015 at 9:18 PM ^
Probably because our fight song was written in the late 1800's and any attempt to "update" it gets shunned by the fan base.
February 12th, 2015 at 9:33 AM ^
The article says he's only spoken to Durkin once or twice since signing day. The context is that he has not been speaking to any schools much since signing day.
Not saying we have a great shot, but the suggestion that he has never really talked to Durkin is false.
February 12th, 2015 at 1:07 PM ^
yeah, I can surmise ...Smith likely told Durkin "Coach I'm going to UGA" so Durkin didn't want to waste time on him. Roquan Smith going Blue ain't happening.
February 11th, 2015 at 8:55 PM ^
Well what a surprise. I'm shocked. Gobsmacked even. Nobody could have predicted this.
February 11th, 2015 at 8:08 PM ^
IMO no. He screems warm weather kid to me.
All the schools he has been interested in are warm weather schools... except Michigan. Obviously staying close to home isn't a factor and it's been said that if Durkin stayed at UF the decision would be easy. And to top it off his visit to UM was in the winter.
I hope I am wrong, but my guess is he stays in the south.
February 12th, 2015 at 1:06 AM ^
is a red flag. It just is. Many of the top companies in my chosen field.are in the Northeast. I would be a damn fool (and soft) to eliminate them because of the weather.
In the grand scheme of things, do you aspire for greatness or not?
p.s. The weather gets really shitty outside in New England, Green Bay, New York, Philadelphia, Seattle, Buffalo, Cleveland, Chicago, Cincinnati, Pittsburgh, Baltimore, KC, Denver, and Washington.
That represents nearly 50% of your dream jobs, tough guy.
February 11th, 2015 at 8:07 PM ^
I wouldnt get my hopes up but i said the same thing to James Buster Douglas once
February 11th, 2015 at 8:14 PM ^
+1 because today is the anniversary of that crazy fight.
February 11th, 2015 at 8:57 PM ^
My uncle made us watch. Little did we know we would watch one of the greatest upsets in history.
February 11th, 2015 at 9:40 PM ^
Found a "sucker" who gave me even odds. Lost 2 grand on that fight. <sigh>
February 11th, 2015 at 11:17 PM ^
identify Tyson as the guy with the face tattoo from the Hangover movies.
February 11th, 2015 at 7:11 PM ^
Georgia is in the driver's seat, imo.
February 11th, 2015 at 7:16 PM ^
Snozberries taste like snozberries, imo.
February 11th, 2015 at 7:33 PM ^
The favorite treat of the dingleberry fairy?
February 11th, 2015 at 8:13 PM ^
I am not sure I would call them fairies....
February 11th, 2015 at 8:17 PM ^
how this thing works. But c'mon, let me take you to some bars in NY, LA, Seattle.
February 12th, 2015 at 2:13 AM ^
Not that there is anything wrong with that.
February 11th, 2015 at 7:19 PM ^
his last announcement?
February 11th, 2015 at 7:33 PM ^
And that's the key difference. Again, it's my opinion and I'll be quite happy to write how wrong I was if he picks another team.
February 11th, 2015 at 7:21 PM ^
with Roquan's mom. That could be influential.
February 11th, 2015 at 7:29 PM ^
Seems to be a Smart kid with good size. Would be nice to see.
Glad there is something to look forward to in this slow time in recruting.
February 11th, 2015 at 7:30 PM ^
A) The Liar - UCLA
B) The Tattle Tell - Georgia
C) The Newbee - Texas A&M
D) The Victors - Michigan
Seems like an easy choice, but what a kid will do, a kid will do.
February 12th, 2015 at 1:13 AM ^
How is that NOT oversigning!!!
February 12th, 2015 at 3:25 AM ^
SEC limit of 28 ala Nutt.
It's not oversigning if you... can figure out the additional hoops to jump through.
(and it's still better than the old rules based on what Nutt was able to do).
