Bama or UGA

My guess is UGA.

It's not Bama unless they turn something around quickly. Right now it's Texas or UGA but there's plenty of time for Bama, tOSU or Clemson to emerge.
 
And for real. Georgia? GTFO. We've had more CBs drafted in the first two rounds of the draft in the past 3 years than Georgia has had drafted in ANY round of the draft in the last FIFTY years.

Georgia has had fucking TWO cornerbacks drafted in the past 50 years. How is that even fucking possible?

Not to mention that Kirby Smart is a fucking idiot that will never top Bama while Saban is around. First, he picked the less talented QB in Fromm. Second, he makes dumb decisions like the fake punt vs. Bama last year to cost his team a CFP berth. FTG, too.

This is a sack of money and a sack of rocks type of decision

The tried and true "what fills up and disappears faster... a sack of money, or a sack of rocks?"

 
Uhh

Uhh they’ve had 12 CBs drafted since my man Champ Bailey in ‘99.

But still...

This is a bitchy emotional response. Georgia is a legit program. They just happen to be in the same conference as bama. They develop both offensive and defensive players. It’s actually a great choice
If you’re an alpha and looking to get paid. They had a corner drafted before Murphy last year for recent history. This all about a mom taking over and running point making sure they get paid. But carry on with your rant.
 
Not my best effort, apparently. Pro Football Reference let me down. Should have known something was up, but check the time stamp. 1:00 a.m. and I was pretty far gone.

I stand by my opinion, though. Choosing Georgia would be like saying it's okay to be somebody's bitch.
 
It is what it is

He (and mom) want the flash ... UW ain’t that

At this point, whatever

It's not about flash it's about money.

Every elite school one way or another has $$$ tied with it ... so that’s a BS reason to me

Plus, if the whole goal was $$$ ... there are some ways I could see some significant $$$ in play

I agree mostly with this sentiment.

Ringo appears to be a smart kid, he knows what's up. It breaks down something like this:

- he understands successful environments. He plays with FSP, trains with FSP even from a longish distance. He has Tracy Ford in his ear ... he understands this at UW while Jimmy Lake is still here.
- he knows he can succeed and perhaps be developed (far) better at UW than programs like the "bluebloods" or places like Texas and Oregon ...
- many of his friends and contemporaries are seriously considering or probably going to UW ...
- he knows that UW is almost there in it's trajectory. Almost. Being a top 10 prospect and with all the competitive and ego trappings that come with it - almost there may not be enough for a guy like him. He may want the validation that an Alabama, Clemson etc can offer. This should not surprise anyone.
- the bags ... this (from what we appears to understand) that UW does not compete at the same bagman level (for better or worse) than other schools. This probably shouldn't surprise many people. It's no surprise that mom is acutely aware of this and has made moves based on this.
- if UW was 3-4 years further down the progress curve and really has had sustained highest-end success against the Alabamas and Clemsons then I can see Ringo choosing UW ... but we're not just there yet.

In the end, a confident and competitive Ringo (and mom) will probably settle for taking the up front bag and also figure that the long-game bag and NFL millions will also be there (barring injury etc). Contrast that with less "bag" from UW but probably better long-game securement and it's a current choice for Ringo for the former.

It is what it is.
