Dwayne Allen is a little b*** — Liar! Should have signed with UF, he’d fit right in with Urban Liar.
I’m going to punch him SQUARE in the nose. One day, you’ll see! Square in the nose. Watch them eyes well up with tears. “Waah waah,” he’ll say! I’ll say, “ha ha, take that little liar b***!”

Great class and great job to CMR and staff! We are keeping our boys in-state, now lets make sure they go to class and graduate, CMR! Another year goes by and once again we refuse to really go after an elite QB. Time will tell if the deal CMR made with the Stafford clan (not to recruit any bluechip QB’s) will come back and bite us in the butt. All in all, UGA is the hot school right now. Keep working hard Dawgs!

With the loaded backfield of Moreno, King, Samuels, and Jackson, don’t forget about Carlton Thomas. Scout has him at #15 best RB in the nation and ESPN ranks him at #8. Wow. Why would we ever throw the ball? Oh yeah, there’s A.J. Green and Tavares King.

UGAY recruits and coaches are so stupid that in times of crisis, it is all they can do to keep them selves from reverting to licking their own asses, animal like. Hey stupid UGAY spy, decrypt this “FF UU”.

It was very unfair of Allen to do what he did to the other guys wanting to attend UGA, and to the coaches at UGA. That was self-centered and unfair to wait till the last day to do that.
That said, need to forget about that and focus on all of the amazing positives in this class.
