SHOCKING: 4-star WR CJ Wiley Chooses Florida State Over Georgia - Wow 

That’s not the reason they missed out on CJ Wiley though. Receivers improve and get drafted from Georgia all the time. Now other receivers in the past who care about catching 80 balls and 1,000+ yards, yeah Georgia’s not for them. A lot of people, including myself, have been told by people in the know that Georgia sat in a good position throughout the process. That’s the surprising part.

Correct and Bobo been OC for about 15 of them..0-3 in SEC Champ games which is sad that in 15 years his teams only made SEC champ 3 times

😂

😂

​@@cdpridg3998why are you here. Go be a commodore , they need fans like you! Couch coach that's never done crap on a football field .

Were you juggling when you typed this?

@@crazyunclelouno i was slong donging when i typed that

I believe this has more to do with FSU’s pitch, whatever is was, than what Georgia has done with receivers. Georgia has had no problem getting their WRs into the league. And as you know, the recent ones have left Athens with a title or two.

​@dawgpost as long as they strike gold over and over again with 3 stars like Lad and AD, they will be fine. But that's what has to happen. They aren't gonna get their pick of the wr litter like they do wirh LBs and DBs.

​@@dawgpostalso 2nd tier portal WRs like we've been doing.

@@crazyunclelouKirby will Flip this dude

@@crazyunclelouhey I’m with you. It would be easier with the elite 5-star guys, but Georgia’s done fine at WR. You could say the lack of elite WRs cost them the SC game in 2019, but they’ve been fine there since.

He wants awards he mentioned winning some awards in his interview

He wants a nice NIL. That's why they play these games. Money and a shot at titles. FSU ain't getting any of those.

@@thomasblankinship98 agreed

@@cdpridg3998 that’s wild, ‘cause Georgia players get all kinds of awards…

They won’t be as tight end friendly without Brock. They’ll still use and throw to the TEs, more than most teams still, but it won’t be the same. McConkey was an early 2nd round pick. So was Pickens. WRs can absolutely get developed and make big plays on a consistent basis at Georgia. FSU absolutely does a good job with their WRs too though. Not disagreeing with you there. LSU does as well as anyone with receives though. If he’s looking to light up the stat sheet, you could make the case that’s where he shouldn’t gone. Especially with Underwood committed there in this 2025 class.

FSU has been not absolutely terrible for 5 minutes and they will suck again next year 😂

@@fndrr42 FSU has been a better program than UGA since the 90’s

​@@mattperry5789 Thanks, it's always good to laugh in moments like this.

Funny he chose to just date it back to the 90s specifically. Not the 80s or the 2000s for some reasons.

Yeah I mean going to a quitter school. Do we really want this kid? I could understand LSU. But after what those FSU players and coaches did last year it’s just a quitter culture

Really good player and he loved his visit to Georgia. This second I think he ends up elsewhere though.

Can’t get them all.

True. It is what it is. You can win championships without 5-star receivers. Running backs too for that matter. It starts with a great OL and QB play, and Georgia’s certainly had that recently.

Nobody “wants” to, but that’s still the reality at most places. George Pickens, Jermaine Burton and Dillon Bell all made an impact as freshmen at Georgia. Whoever signs with Georgia at WR in the 2025 class has an opportunity to see the field early too. CJ Wiley is good enough to play for early playing time wherever he ends up, even at Georgia.

@@dawgpost what other place then uga

@@letthebigdawgeat6008what do you mean exactly? Just trying to understand exactly what you’re asking.

That's no Kirby's style. He rotates players in and out to keep them fresh and to make the other teams defense scramble to match up with different individuals in different positions. Doing this causes confusion . Confusion opens up bug holes and big plays. Keeping the same players in for longer series allows defenses to lock on good receivers.

63-3

How they still can get Travis smith and a few more. He went to a team Georgia beats there butt

Lol nice one. I already admitted I was wrong! First time ever haha

Travis smith is doubtful to want to place in this Bobo offrnse

Bobo has 18 year track record that can’t be denied. Big time receivers not coming to Athens. Keep looking for the Mconkeys..I’m seeing the crystal balls coming in past couple days for the 2 and 3 star types

​@@cdpridg3998you have a life long track record of never coaching a real game , but you talk like you know exactly what UGA needs as an OC. But it ain't you. Couch coach.

Doubtful..Bolden isn’t a receiver

Wrong. Ladd McConkey Dillon Bell we’re certainly developed. AD Mitchell got a lot better when he got to Athens. George Pickens got better. Jermaine Burton got better as a sophomore. Brock Bowers was a TE but he played the position like a receiver. He also got better year after year. And those are just recent guys.

Georgia cares lol. He’s an outstanding player. No doubt

@@dawgpost we have plenty.

I understand that. But this specific commitment was surprising because a lot of people like myself who cover recruiting weren't expecting it. It just wasn't what we heard from sources. That's why it's surprising. Also, if he's looking to put up giant numbers, you'd think an LSU legacy would choose LSU since they do as well as anyone at developing and allowing their WRs to put up giant numbers. From that standpoint, LSU makes more sense than FSU. Nobody is saying Georgia receivers have lit up the stat sheet in recent years. The numbers are the numbers. But you can absolutely grow, develop, and get drafted as a receiver if you play at Georgia. They're far from "WRU", but it's not like Georgia can't produce receivers.

Bobo is never ever gonna flip the script and change that narrative

@@dawgpost Imo the kid wanna go to FSU but his support system wanted UGA. That's why the Intel leaned UGA. As you could tell it was an awkward silence after he committed because they all were expecting what you were expecting. UGA can still flip but they have to prove it to Wiley on the field before signing day. Trust me I hate these kinds of recruiting situations. In Bama's case Offords wants to come to Bama but his father has issues with the previous staff and the new dbs coach so OSU doesn't see a flip. But it's very very likely by signing day. But I do believe eventually Kirby must move out of his comfort zone and get a real wide receiver coach that commands respect. OSU FSU Texas LSU and Bama have top 5 receivers coach and this wide out class committing to who they know do it best.

@@JMoneyMan86he did have Cortez Hankton who did an excellent job, but his heart was always where he is now. We’ll see if Wiley’s commitment sticks. If it does they landed one hell of a receiver. But you’re right, very awkward silence in the building and in the family’s reaction.

​@@cdpridg3998you have no clue what he's going to do.

How so? It was certainly shocking to people who have covered his recruitment. I wasn’t the only one who thought this would come down to Georgia and LSU. Picking FSU was extremely surprising to most.

Been watching since 1980, count of high-end wide receivers can probably count on one hand with at least one finger left

@@ebransc09that has nothing to do with CJ Wiley though but ok.

I sure thought so earlier today. Georgia won’t give up here that’s for sure.

Lol hold your breath

When I look at Bobo I see the guy who now has the two top-scoring offenses in the history of the program, was a two-time Broyles Award finalist (meaning he was recognized as one of the top five coordinators on either side of the ball in the entire sport), and whose offense carried the program in his first stint opposite defenses that were typically mediocre or worse.

When I see Bobo I see a guy who chokes and doesn’t win big games..the games that matter for championships..20 years running now. He really doesn’t have to be OC at UGA for the rest of our lives on the fact he was a avg qb and obviously great ass kisser

@@cdpridg3998 Yet another fan who wants to burn MIke Bobo in effigy for our defensive short-comings. And yes, I have watched EVERY game with Mike Bobo as our OC. While at UGA for his first stint Bobo's offenses averaged 33 PPG (#27.8 in the country, #4.1 in the SEC). In his final three seasons this was 37.8 PPG (#14.3 nationally, #3 in the SEC, including the #8 scoring offense with 40.2 PPG and was the best in the SEC his final year). The year before he got the job we averaged 23.3 PPG, were #57 in the country and #8 in the SEC. To get a good idea of what he was working with talent-wise, in the same span the Georgia defenses averaged allowing 24 PPG (#41.1 nationally, #5.5 in the SEC, in his final three seasons 24.3 PPG, #39.7 nationally, #5.3 in the SEC). In the four years before Bobo left, the average signing class ranking seems strong - avg. #9.75 nationally, but that was also just fifth in the SEC over that span (2010-2013). For another point of reference, 2010 Auburn is statistically the worst scoring defense to win a championship in the BCS/CFP era - is widely acknowledged as having ridden entirely on its offense - and it allowed the same PPG at 24.1 that the Georgia defenses averaged for Bobo's first stretch as OC. For yet another point of reference, that unstoppable, championship Auburn offense averaged fewer PPG (39.6) than Bobo's last two Georgia offenses, 2014 (41.7) and 2023 (40.14). Not only was his offense often carrying the defense on its back, he had to be really damn careful because a turnover against a competent offense typically had a decent chance of being in the endzone 3-5 plays later, and the same people griping about "conservative play-calling on 3rd down" would instead have been CRUCIFYING him for being careless with the ball and costing us the game with a turnover. Bobo was a great player for us, and his offense 100% carried this program while he was here during his first stint as OC - it's a genuine shame that so many fans do nothing but resent him for it, he deserves so much better.

​@@cdpridg3998when I see your stats , I see a commodore fan who's a bandwagon fan who years down players and coaches. Move in to Vandy. You suck as a DAWG!
