Caleb King says it’s UGA

Greater Atlanta Christian star running back Caleb King says he’ll attend Georgia.

The Bulldogs are likely to return three veteran running backs next year — Kregg Lumpkin, Danny Ware and Thomas Brown — in addition to redshirt freshman Knowshon Moreno.

Where will King fit in? Should he start? Redshirt? Have your say …

If he starts it will be because he is much better than anyone else. Otherwise he will be redshirted like Moreno. However, I would love to see a GA back with the speed he supposedly has. That is one thing no one this year has.

If King is as good as the media says he is, CMR will find a way to get him on the field. Just look at what CMR has done with Stafford.

Who knows? Who cares? This kid has already shown that he is not a team player and will turn his back on his team in a heartbeat. Remember, national signing day isn’t until February. He will probably change his mind again…..

If he shows up in good shape, and his knee is healthy, I think he’ll start. The current crop of running backs are all rather pedestrian, so Caleb would likely be the best of the lot.

No Caleb will not start! He will be redshirted just like Moreno. He will be our back for 2008 though. As we saw in the Auburn game, you can never have enough runningbacks on the bench.

seriously. let him redshirt, as well as Thomas Brown, due to the injury. we have plenty of depth at RB for next year in Lump, Ware, and Moreno. Not enough carries to go around to a frosh. So, unless he just tears it up, let him recover from his injury and learn the system.

Glad to have Caleb. He will be a playmaker eventually. He will get touches but he will not start as a freshman. He will help in the return game most early in his career and will get roughly 10 touches a game but Kregg Lumpkin should start. The 2008 UGA team really could be special. We need Eric Berry next. Playmaker on both sides of the ball.

Redshirt him. He is coming off of an injury. Keep the senior veterans in next year and give him time to heal that ankle and learn the system. Or hell, throw him in the mix next year and move Lumpkin’s big butt to strong safety. Let him start hitting people.

I don’t see him starting right off. Being from here and all, I’d like to see him reshirt, we’re gonna be hella congested in the backfield next year. And don’t sleep on Moreno, I got a feeling he’ll give Caleb a run for his money, plus he’s coming off an injury, that doesn’t projct well either way. WE REDSHIRTED 18 guys last year, that’ll prolly happen again!!!! GO DAWGS!!!!!

He may not start off hand since he has to learn the system. He will play and will not be redshirted. He will play in the backfield as well as kickoff return. Now where are those people who didn’t listen and said he wasn’t going to Georgia?

King doesn’t have to start at running back. With his speed and ability to catch the ball, he could be a Reggie Bushesque wide receiver/running back hybrid. Good times are ahead for UGA.

Hold on now..Some are mentioning Caleb`s name along with Hershel Walker. (Comparing to their high school rushing status records). I saw Hershel & at 208 lbs. I seriously doubt that Caleb can be discussed in that same category. Red shirt him and work on his size, strength & speed to carry the needed added weight.

Brown, Lumpkin and Ware will finish out as SR’s w/ Moreno sprinkled in some…But Moreno is the best of the bunch right inow and King is coming off an injury…Richt needs to redshirt King and then have King and Moreno for at least 3 years together!!

I’m sure that might be a reason he came to UGA is because he is gonna start… Well, maybe not start but not take a shirt. Thomas Brown will be out all of next year. Kregg Lumpkin is graduating and who knows what he is going to do. So, if you take Kregg out of the equation you have Moreno, King and Ware. I’m not saying he’s going to come in and automatically be a star but he will not take a shirt. I would bet money on that

I think this will make the 15th “next Herschel” the fleabags have signed.

What color Escaladed did you get him?

Good thing he wasn’t smart enough to get into GT, or we would have signed him. We got the 2 best running backs in Georgia committed already. Caleb will be nothing but injured his whole career once he gets out of Hargrove Academy.

Georgia will use Caleb the first year. He will not redshirt because he is a dual threat running back/return man. His weight has nothing to do with him starting. He’s hovering between 200 and 208 and growing. Expect a bigger, stronger, faster Caleb for his freshman year at Georgia.

This “will he start” stuff is very premature. He hasn’t qualified yet. He doesn’t have a qualifying test score and who knows if he has the grades. He might be on his way to Hargrave for all we know. Lets just be happy we got another commitment before we hand him the Heisman let alone the starting job. As someone said earlier, remember Jasper Sanks.

Redshirt him and get him as healthy as he can be for ‘08. We’ll have a four headed monster next year so playing time is going to be an issue anyway. Moreno is apparently the most talented back at Georgia currently and he should see the field more than Danny Ware next year. The running game needs to be built around Lumpkin and maybe let Brown focus on returns. USC and Georgia are the deepest in the nation in running backs and that is certainly a blessing for the program. Too many great backs that could start anywhere in the country is a problem I can live with!

I hate to say it but Danny Ware is delusional if he thinks the NFL draft is a good option right now. He needs one more really good year to even sniff the league. He needs to have a Verron Haynes breakout year next year. I think the most logical choice would be to redshirt king, learn the system, and not regret throwing him away for a year. If he is as good as billed then we need to make sure we don’t waste him at all. Not many players come along like him. I hope the Reggie Bush comparison is accurate. If we could land Eric Berry and Allen Bailey our class would possibly be no. 1. I would love to have too much talent and not enough positions. What a good problem to have. Eric Berry is legit. I saw him play this year and he was unstoppable on both sides of the ball. He is just a flat out athlete. His speed is on a different level. Isn’t this time of year awesome. Can’t wait to see King, Stafford, and A.J. Green on the field together. Scary. GO DAWGS!!!!

I think he will not qualify and have to attend Hargrave for a year. This is not a bad thing for him. The move will get him focused and back into shape. He will not have to be redshirted. He can then come in 2008 and Richt can use he and Moreno in tha backfield and in different sets at the same time. Like Carrol did with Bush and White at SC. Or if he qualifies, he can redshirt, get healthy and back into shape while learning the system.

I know its fun to talk about these kids but lets see them on the field, I want to see Moreno before I say he is the best back at UGA. Based on performance, Lumpkin is by far our best back. Its just like Stafford, yes he is talented, but he needs to continue to play and get better. Mikey was the talk of the town in spring and his season hasn’t been great in my mind. Lets see these kids play before we tought anyone the second coming. Plus a lot can happen before signing day, he may not qualify, he may change his mind. After seeing him play, any comparison to Reggie Bush is ridiculous.

First off he’s got to qualify then sign in February. If he’s the best RB on the practice field, & learns the blocking assignments then he’ll play & eventually start. I doubt he’ll want to redshirt & he might transfer if he’s told that so unless he’s not physically able he’ll play. If his leg needs more time you could see him & Thomas Brown Redshirted next year.

Does anybody know where Cameron Smith ended up? Last I heard he went to a JC but left after a week or two. I hope we don’t offer him again the punk was on TV last year & basically said he’d go to UGA if USC didn’t offer him. I say if UGA isn’t your first choice then go somewhere else because we don’t need you.

King is the real deal, I saw him play last year and even if he has lost a step he still is better than any other back in the south.

Lumpkin was once rated #3 overall in the country. He should be redshirted because we have a hell of a crop. In two years he will fight for the starting job with Moreno and T.Brown. Just pray we get the likes of Vance and some other OLs so we can block. If we have a line next year, and of course our kicker back; UGA will compete once again for the SEC crown.

Actually I think the 2nd coming of Herschel will be Knowshon. Caleb will be the third coming after his redshirt year. He needs a year to heal completely, learn to block in the backfield, read college Ds, and get bigger and stronger to take the pounding any TB gets in the powerhouse of SEC.

Now if he had chosen a team in the Powderpuff Conference (ACC) he could probably start tomorrow, broken leg and all.

Mark Richt will be the dumbest man on the planet if he tries to redshirt King. The kid bolts as fast as he can tie his shoes - left two other high schools.

There’s no way he’ll be there for a senior year - he’ll go pro as soon as he’s old enough. Therefore, Georgia might as well play him as much as they can.

I sincerely hope all of the UGA bloggers out there that made disparaging comments about Caleb changing schools will be big enough to apologize. If he is admitted to UGA it will be because he had the desire to improve himself academically, not athletically.

I think he could see pt at RB/WR/PR/KR. He won’t start, but he can add some needed upgrade at the skill position to the offense. Lump probably goes pro anyway because his stats won’t improve much if at all next season. his stock is as high as it will go.

I’m very glad King chose UGA. Playing in high school, especially a small school doesn’t necessarily mean he will be that good in college. Herschell proved everyone wrong and if he is as good or better than Herschell was he should start. This could be discovered during Spring or early fall practice. Knowing no more than I do right now I would say he is the 4th or 5th running back Georgia has. If he is mostly learning and is redshirted his first year, he will still be outstanding help to Georgia before he graduates and after Lumpkin, Brown and others graduate.

I think the real question is will the dawgs get some offensive lineman to block for him and Stafford. It’s not a glory position but UGA is definitely lacking in run and pass protectors. King is good but has anyone seen video on the kid from Ft. Myers Fl? Noel Devine is way ahead of any other rb recruit in the nation. Too bad he only has the character to attend Miami.

It doesn’t matter if Caleb starts next year or not MR will not run the ball consistently anyway. Out of our three running backs…Lump is the only back with 100 yard games and an avg of 5.3 yards per run. ??? We lost games this year becausue MR will not run the ball or stay with hot running back. Caleb should have sign with Auburn…

Hey, it don’t freekin’ matter. As long as CMR continues with his lame 1 lone running back schemes and no committment to the running game, it won’t matter who we sign or how good they are. Why would a running back want to even come to UGA? I’m glad he signed with us, but if CMR continues to show a lack of offensive brain cells, it will be just another waste of talent!!

“Two people from Georgia who were recently arrested: Ehsanul Islam Sadequee, 19, an American of Bangladeshi descent, and Syed Haris Ahmed a.k.a RAMBLE ON!, 21, a Pakistani-born American.

Law-enforcement officials said the two men had made “casing” videos of various sites in Washington. Officials also have said their case was linked to the arrests of several men in Britain last fall.

RAMBLE ON! really doesn’t understand American football. He doesn’t understand that UGA has beat Tech the last 5 years in a row! So take it easy on our buddy or you might become the next target on his list.

There is speculation that Moreno will transfer because of King. Also I know Berry’s family and he is not going to come to UGA so ya’ll can quit worrying about that.

Let’s be clear, Lump is by far our best back. Danny has lost it, Thomas was supposed to be this years 1,500 yard rusher, and Moreno needs to learn a bit more. Next year it will be Lumpkin starting with Moreno as the backup as ware becomes the next M. Cooper. If Brown comes back next year it will be his mistake. You are never back to 100% in less than a year after tearing the ACL. So 07’ Lumpkin, Moreno/Brown,Ware. King (RS) 08’ Moreno or King…whoever the new recruit is.

Bigg Dawg, Unfortunately Eric Berry is leaning towards Tennessee but Georgia still has a chance to keep him in-state.

Hopefully Caleb’s announcement will make him give Georgia another hard look. He’ll wait to announce his decision on February during national signing day. BTW: Caleb’s last comment during the press conference was “Go Dawgs”. Just music to the ears of the Dawg Nation.

He will have to pass the SAT before he does anything. Why do you think that he transfered to GAC? Because he doesn’t have to pass an exit exam at a private school. Moreno will be the back for the next 3 years - he’s a HOSS! King will have to hit the books next year so, he’ll redshirt.

To you guys that are saying Moreno is the most talented back, slow down. Moreno will be good but give Lump the ball 25 times a game and he is talked about as one of the better backs in the country.

No Caleb will not start. The year Lump came to Georgia we were down talent wise with our Rb’s and that is why he eventually started (plus he was the #2 back in the country).

What kind of car did he get? What job did Richt give his brother? He is not ranked any higher that the stable of mediocre backs already has. All the same things will be said regarding this kid. He will probably never get to letter signing if I had to bet. Please note the word on the street is he does not have the grades and his classroom ethic is very poor. All the transfers he made had a lot more to do with acedemics than football.

Good Luck

By the way “Jim Stafford” and the other high ranked recruits have already fought Bulldog tough and lost to Vandy and Kentucky. I am very impressed.

Ramble On- you’ve never heard of Hargrave Military Academy? They’ve been pumping out quality players to big schools for a while now. That’s probably why you havn’t heard of them. Also, UGA has Herschel, UT has Peyton Manning, the Tide has Bear Bryant, Auburn has Bo Jackson, and Tech has……………..?? Hold on, I’ll think of somebody in a sec……………well anyways I’ll have to get back to you on that one. Ya’ll have Calvin Johnson this year and believe me, when he leaves every quality receiver you guys get will be “the next Calvin Johnson!” It’s just hard for you to understand because you’ve never had a gamechanger like him, like the rest of us.

K.Moreno hasn’t carried the ball in a college game as of yet, but is getting alot of praise. Caleb needs to Redshirt. I think we’re deep enough.

To Ramble On’ and other Jacket posters who consistently spot crap like “Good thing he wasn’t smart enough to get into GT, or we would have signed him”, have you bothered to check the average incoming credentials of your football team over the last few years? It’s only slightly higher on average than UGA (as of last year 8 whole points), and in quite a few years it has been lower.

Also check out the NCAA APR reports in which GaTech’s football academic record ranks in the 60-70th percentile within that sport, while UGA ranks in the 70th to 80th percentile. Oops. Your bad.

OK, so you haven’t had enough. So, you want to say the last 4 classes at GaTech have graduated 48% of football players in 5 years versus 39% for Georgia. No problem, I will give you the fact that your school ‘gives away’ degrees at a better rate. I guess that just goes to show that GaTech isn’t really that tough of a school anyway.

The sad fact is, all schools have some intelligent players and some not so intelligent. Georgia Tech is a prideful school based on tremendous achievements in technology and engineering. We get that. However, Georgia Tech has stooped lower than just about any school out there when it comes to their football program. They claim academic integrity and bash other schools for not having it, yet are among the biggest hypocrits of all.

If you seriously think all of the players Tech signs are capable of earning a degree from a ‘real’ program of study from that institution, you are lying to yourselves and belittling your own school in the process. You should care more about it.

If Tech were everything that the alumni and fans beat their chests about in the area of student athletes, they would be closer to Duke or Harvard in admission scores. Sadly, Tech’s admission standards for football players is right down there with the average SEC school. It’s really sad how you claim all this academic integrity when you have nothing to back it up, and any NCAA research document that comes out denies your statements. (check out some of the research at www.ncaa.org)

Then again, this is a school where you don’t have to be able to count to 5 or form one complete sentence in an interview to remain academically eligible. Ain’t dat wright, Reggie?

Look! The reality is that Caleb King was a selfish, ill advised teenager who took the easiest way out by transferring to GAC to pad his senior year numbers to improve his status as a college recruit. He followed his brother, Andre, to GAC on his advice. Let’s now see how long GAC keeps Andre around now that Caleb will soon be gone. I think Caleb King is looking for the easy way to success and will never be a successful running back for UGA. He should have never left Parkview if he wanted to know how good he REALLY is. At Parkview, he would have been playing at the highest level of competition throughout the state. Time will tell, but I think that by Georgia taking King, that leaves another talented back with “heart” for all the other schools. Thanks UGA!

I don’t believe he will start. Even if he qualifies for admission next year, he is behind (now) 4 quality backs. Ask about Moreno on the scout team and everyone who sees him every day is excited about him running next year. Regardless, the backs that touch the ball will be the ones who perform best in practice, hit the holes, pick up the blitzing safety, and—most importantly—doesn’t lay the ball on the ground. Whoever does those things the best will see the field—regardless of class year.

Also, I’m not getting too excited about him just yet. I live in Columbus and I remember all too well the Parade All American who came out of Columbus and was “the next Herschel Walker.” His name was Jasper Sanks—remember him? Let’s let Caleb King get out of high school and enrolled at UGA before getting too carried away.

Dear Mark, lay off the hair gell, its entering your brain. Here are the facts, GT put up these outstanding nubers against NC:

Ball = 10-24 78 yards Choice 32 carries for 119 yards CJ 3 catches for 13

I have a hard time believing that GT can spank us at our house. I think we have some RAID for the bees.

Hey BBJacket, Next you will be telling us your IQ.

You own and run a company and you are such a loser as to be on a Georgia blog all day…pretty productive? Um yeah right!

You did not go to college, you are unemployed, you live with your mommy, you are 4’ 8” tall, your viens stick out on your head when you cry, you have many zits, your a virgin, your at the libary on thier computer because it’s free, you have no sister but you always wanted one, you gave up your myspace account because no one signed on to be your friend, this blog is the closest thing that comes to commuication with other humans, you come to UGA blogs because you will take the negitive attention over none at all, and your favorite color is magenta. Scary isn’t it? And GA will beat you again this year 0 and 6 and against the Dogs!

By the way I am a girl. I squat when I pee just like you do.

I don’t think he will start next Fall at Georgia. Caleb King is a hell of a back and will do great things. He has three rising seniors who are wonderful in their own right, and a top national recruit coming off his red-shirt. Might as well save him and get him ready to have a long 4 year career at which he can contribute the most.

Get a life, people!

All of you are acting like you have personally accomplished something, or are making crude comments, because a High School student had a press conference stating he wanted to attend UGA.

This stupidity happens every year and it doesn’t matter what any one of you say. Some kids do great, some kids are flops. Some kids flunk out, some kids finish their degrees. At the end of the day, isn’t the only thing that matters is that the kids become productive citizens?

I doubt any of you bloggers have ever suited up for the teams you are bragging about. If you had, you wouldn’t be talking all this trash. I can assure you that, speaking as a football Letterman from a major Southeastern University, we all think you are a bunch of idiots.

Good natured ribbing is fine, but the crude comments are nothing more than a poor reflection on the University you support as well as your family and you personally.

Acting with class doesn’t cost a cent. Invest in yourself or keep your crude comments on a paid site. Children read these blogs.

To: gators rock!

This kid is not special, and he is like every other part of the dogs team - all talk and no game. I have heard from my sources that Coach-of-the-year Meyers told him Florida did not want him and he should go elsewhere. We have enough players and now GA is getting our rejects. You have to be special to put on the beautiful orange and blue, baby! Gators don’t need this chump.

You don’t know what you are talking about, I have a very good friend on the Florida staff that has told me that Meyers and his staff had Caleb rated as the # 2 RB prospect and that is with his injury. The only RB they rated higher was Noel Devine and no one except maybe Miami is willing to take a chance on him. Also thay were actively trying to get him to come Florida and had promised him that he wouldn’t be redshirted.

As for Georgia’s Offensive Line, they redshirted 7 very good to outstanding offensive linemen (OL) this year. Another very good friend of mine who is on the Georgia staff has told me several times that a couple of these guys are being compared to Mike Wilson and that is high praise indeed. He also told me that a couple of outstanding JUCO OL are leaning toward GA as well. I think this may have played in Caleb’s decision to verbally commit to GA.

I have heard people say that Lump, Brown and Ware will finish out as Sr.s, but that Moreno is the best of the bunch…Isn’t that the type of thinking that btought us to where we are today. We are 7-4 PARTLY because we would not put the best players in the game, ie. Stafford v Joe T. I don’t care if those 3 are 5th year seniors…you put the best playersa on the field, period. If they are the best, then put them in. If King and Moreno blow them off the field (not saying they will) then they are the ones who should get PT. Then, pair them up with a great offensive coordinator, add a defensive coordinator who knows what they are doing (AU game does not erase WM ineptitude. A blind squirel finds a nut every once in a while), and BAM, you have a national championship caliber team.Cool, I will take my 2 mil/ yr contract now.

They don’t run the spead…yet. They try a hybrid using Leak, which is appropriate because he’s paid his dues. Next year will be even better, but they could have used Caleb. Instead, he chose to get buried on the bench. Of course, there are other good RBs that want to be Gators. Chris Rainey out of Lakeland is one who’ll suit up next year…

Heard AU cooled on King after his injury and signed a different 4-star back instead who is bigger and faster. King could be great, but CMR has no track record of making successful use of talented backs because a running game isn’t a priority. And as Stafford gets better, Richt will throw it more often; King will be average/good just like Lump, Brown, and Ware b/c he’ll never get enough carries.

I believe the fastest and best runner out of the backfield I have seen play for UGA was a player, who now plays for the Pittsburg Steelers and they still wouldn’t think of getting rid of Hines Ward. He hasn’t looked any better for them, even in last years Super Bowl than he looked for Georgia. He was as fast he helped the team in many different ways. I hope it’s time Georgia got another player like Hines.

Those who think He should start obviously do not remember the accolades Lumpkin came in with. Lumpkin was almost as highly cuveted as King and he didn’t start.

According to the Georgia defensive players he has been very impressive in practice. Lets just wait and see what he can do.

Second I love reading all of these wonderful posts about Tech playing in the ACC championship game. Thats a real powerhouse conference when your playing WAKE FOREST. Get real. Comeback to the SEC and play real schools. Think about this its been 5 years since you last beat Georgia. Win a game and then talk sh*t. Until then keep being the little sister to the only true College football team in this state. I believe the BULLDOG nation may have landed a new King. Just a matter of time before Berry out of creekside gives his verbal to UGA. The only chance Tech has is this year. After that it looks like five more long years for those Biatches from the North Avenue Trade school.

Also by the way we beat you all 4 years I played on the offensive line at Georgia. This series between our schools has always been a series of streaks. Florida happens to be the team that is streaking now. Oh by the way while I always pull for my Dawgs, I do pull for other SEC teams when they are playing out of the conference and will be pulling for the Gators or Razorbacks in the National Championship game if they make it.
