To Macon Dawg: Luallen completed 60% of his passes for 756 yards and 12 touchdowns with no interceptions. He rushed for 475 yards and 13 touchdowns. He is 6’ 3” and runs a 4.55 40. He also ran the 100 high hurdles and 300 hurdles. He has a 3.5 GPA and remember, he has another year of high school. A perfect fit for Georgia Tech.

Jordan; Congratulations for the hard work you put into getting to this point, both on the playing field and in the classroom. I know your family is proud of your accomplishment, and I also know that means the world to you.

Please do not let any of the negative posts detract you from your goals. I know you have family here in Georgia, and I apologize to them for the rudeness they must endure from many of the so-called fans that belittle another University, it’s players or coaches.

Welcome to the Flats, young man. We are proud to call you one of our own.

No, it is actually the square root of 361 multiplied by the hypotnuse of a right triangle with legs of 112 and 104. Take that number and cube it by the surface area of Joe Hamilton’s jail cell. Add the number of times Reggie Ball beat UGA and divide by number of WR’s that left the GT program over the off season.

I would like to thank all of you Tech fans for welcoming me to the south. I already feel at home. For all of the doubters out there you can rest assured that I will have no problem transfering my skills from an all girl High School football team to GT. I have already seen some of the similarities from my high school team to my future team at GT. My center is about the same size as the center that I will be lining up under on the plains! My current centers name is Andrea and we are best friends. I just hope CPJ is as open to carrying tampons in the first aid kit as my current coach is.

By Think

Wow…Why hasn’t Purdue and ND offered this kid? Well probably because they run pass first offenses and Jordan runs the wing-T. Just maybe?

Yeah dogs…2 of the top ten? One will play…maybe…just like Jordan…maybe. Even if Stafford leaves after this year, there are plenty of QBs between him and your ‘09 guys.

Y’all are so full of crap. If Tech got the top 2 recruits in every position in the nation y’all would just be saying “oh well we didn’t offer them”.

One would think that if UGA’s recruits were so much better than Tech’s…in reality or in recruit rankings…that UGA should have beaten Tech by more than an average of seven and a half points over the last 4 years…

I’m convinced most of the UGA fans don’t actually watch the GT-UGA games. It’s the only way to explain why they think they have actually dominated us.

The past few games have been very, very close, and in the past two years they were literally handed touchdowns (one leading to a victory for UGA) by officials. Last year’s game was very competitive until our o-line fell apart in the last quarter (it happens, we didn’t have the depth we needed). Not to mention we shut down your little golden boy (although could not fully get a handle on Brown, oh well).

There are d-bag fans on either side, but you UGA fans are being absolutely ridiculous. I’m not quite sure how you can actually enjoy football by the way some of you are acting.

i am not a tech fan. in fact, i despise both tech and uga. but paul johnson is one helluva a football coach. he is one of those rare coaches that can beat your team with his team, and then, if he wanted, he could take your players and beat his team. he’s that smart. mark my words. he will win. give him a little bit of talent to work with and he will win alot. i’d be willing to bet he beats uga twice in the next 5 years. at least.

I’d say his stats are pretty TOP NOTCH for a kid that plays for a coach who runs a wing-t offense. If you put Jordan up against Mett or Murray with all other factors being equal (i.e. type of offense and other players) I guarantee he looks better than them. He was Scout.com Army All American All Combine QB, Nike Training Camp All Combine QB (Baton Rouge), Scout.com 7 v. 7 All Combine QB, and Scout.com All Combine QB (Cincinnati). Four All Combine QB MVP awards in a row and he’s 6’4” 210 and runs a 4.55 40 yard dash. Mett was at the Army Combine. He WILL lead Tech to a victory over uga before he graduates.

I have to agree with an earlier post. The numbers are not very impressive for his ranking. About 70 miles north fom Atlanta there is a QB who is an honor graduate this year, ran a spread option offense, ran and passed for over 1000 yards each the last 2 years. CPJ had him up for a visit to Navy last year, and had him near the top of his wish list, but I have seen no interest this year.

Actually, the 3 QB’s we were recruiting were Mettenberger, Murray and Savage.

He is not ranked in the top 10 dual threat qb’s on Rivals.com, is on the watch list only for ESPN. The only service that has him rated highly is Scouts.

Logan Gray will be a sophomore when he starts and Murray and Mettenberger will get RS. So, the first time they are eligible to play, Gray will be a junior. I imagine they will take the same approach DJ took with Greene, or, the approach Stafford took with JT3…Wait for junior years to play or win the job from Gray.

Luallen, glad that you decided to come to GTech. Sorry that I won’t be around to tutor you like I did my homeboys Kelly, Stephon, Reuben and, my favorite QB, Reggie in Dope Smoking 101. You see I recently lost my job as a football coach at age 32 for drinking and smoking weed while driving. You will love it here. This school even created a degree for me so I could claim I got my edumaction from here after 8 years. I was really one of the ineligible athletes that caused GTech to forfeit games. When Coach O’Leary was here, he never made me or my teammates go to class. Instead, he just had the registrar falsify academic records so we could stay eligible. Coach O’Leary had problems with the truth himself cause he lied on his resume about playing college ball. Anyway, we lie, cheat, toke and steal and still can’t beat Georgia. Maybe we will have better luck with you and Jaybo.

Signed, Lil’ Joe

Good job Tech. Just getting started with six top recruits so far. Anyone need to see how deligent these recruiting guys are check out ESPN.com and see who is considering Tech. This kid is suppose to be really good. Tech will need at least 3 qb’s game ready and another 3 in the wings in this offense. Effectiveness in this offense seem to be the key. If we throw 25 times omplete 60% and then score 3 td’s in the air to go with the running game this offense will be explosive.

From ESPN… Luallen is a sleeper quarterback in this class all because he does not have the luxuries of playing in a wide open scheme and developing a ton of stats as many other QB’s in this class have. He has great size, is a wonderful athlete and shows excellent speed and quickness for the position. He is a runner first right now because this scheme, a version of the Wing-T does not afford him the opportunities to develop as a passer, but that will come. He is very creative and he has the makings of an excellent spread QB because he can run it and he is tough and he is familiar with veer and option principles. Rarely gets dropback opportunities in the passing game and is always throwing on the move as a run/pass dual-threat on the perimeter. Is a very good roll-out passer to each side and will square his shoulders and throw with power on the move. Is asked to make some difficult throws as he is often naked off play-action and throwing with people in his face. Shows adequate-to-good arm strength and in time will be capable of making all the necessary college throws. His legs really make him a weapon along with his size. He is well built and deceptively quick and fast. Shows some explosiveness and elusiveness as a runner in the open field and possesses the speed to go the distance if he breaks into the second level. Will lower his shoulder and get the tough yards. Shows good leadership and intangibles. Right now Luallen is behind in terms of the passing game and experience in any type of pro-style scheme as a dropback guy. Will need to catch up in the passing game, but he is heady and competitive and a hard worker and the learning curve should not be too drastic. Delivery is quick, but must develop consistent throwing mechanics. Overall, Luallen is athletic and makes plays and would be getting more attention in a more pass-happy scheme. Good prospectmoke it, mutts…

Quiet frankly, my dear, I don’t give a damn what you think. I do know that you have to win 2 more football games to own the record.

Stephonmarbury, a GED is too easy to get, just look at yourself and the other UGA people I refered to.

Mettenberger SUKS!! Can YOU say OVERRATED!!??!! Can YOU say Overly-Cocky for NO GOOD REASON??? My advice to UGA fans; stop talking about your 2 QB’s - stick to bragging about the one GOOD QB that you got from Florida. :)

There are other great QB’s in Georgia that are getting overlooked by Scout.com due to politics so maybe you should all stop looking at the Scout rankings as the gospel and look the the kids’ overall potential (of which ZM has none…)

And by the way, I am not a UGA or Tech superfan - I like to see both Teams win (more UGA) but being new to the recruiting scene I am feeling the pressure and possibly some hater-ation.

That said, it’s hard to deny these sorry-azz stats: Mettenberger threw 10TD and 9INTs last year to go along with 1300 yards passing. Oh, and by the way, Oconee County is 8-13 over the last two years. Mettenberger SUKS!!

Hey idiot, Mr.Big Daddy(good one)save the fluff! GT sux you know it that’s why all you idiots are getting your feathers ruffled. Say what you want about Mettenberger dumb a** he’s still ranked higher than your China Egg!

Tobigdaddy, even you should understand this,Mettenberger has 5 stars behind his name and also the word “PROSPECT”. So do all the other young men that may or may not play football or basketball for one school or the other. You could be right, this guy could be another Quincey Carter. Guess we will have to wait and see. Mettenberger, sounds German. Didn’t we already kick their a$$ once before?

UGA has two QB’s out of the Top 10.

I wonder which one doesn’t get to play?

On this memorial day weekend, I am so proud that many young men fought to insure that your sorry a$$ would have the freedom to critize anything and everything you choose. Sounding off in the blogs is called “freedom of speech”, but I have serious reservations that this is was our founding fathers ment when they were protecting our rights. At any rate, have a safe holiday and if you must travel, be sure to have a designated driver.

All I have to say is this: show me where Mettenberger EARNED his rank/stars… Show me some great film… what about stats… hey, didn’t he make all-state? NOOO! The kid was given his rank/stars based on who he knows - it is just that obvious!! If he was anybody else in GA with the same stats and a mom that worked anyplace other than UGA he would get no props - and you know it!! That’s why I say stop putting so much stock in the Scout stars.

Again, show me (with facts) why he is so highly ranked and I will shut up… Now the FL QB - that’s a great catch!!

Zach mettenberger—2 offers, UGA & FSU.1333 yd passing-10TDs—NINE INTs.-Mother ran interference for him in UGA FB office. Would be a good catch for Valdosta State, Ga. Southern or West Ga. Going to have to ride the pine behind Logan Gray, Murray at UGA.

It’s crazy to believe that Johnson’s system at Tech won’t attract top notch talent. Why wouldn’t a kid want to play in a system that’s gonna rack up yardage in a major conference? Wicked stats in a major conference = Heismen consideration. I suspect we’ll see a couple of really good running backs in this recruiting class too.
