Committed per his Twitter.

The staff has sent out the bat signal twice in the last week which usually means we have two new guys in this class but they have not been announced as far as I can tell. I don't think we've had a staff that's done foreshadowing before.

Are we trying to drain the state of Georgia?

Yes, as did the previous staff and the staff before that. UGA can't take them all.

Wasn't this the sole reason to keep Kerry Coombs on the staff?

I don't think it was the sole reason becuase he's got a ton of experience at this point. I do think this brings up the question, does Kerry still have legit recruiting pull in the city and state after being out of the HS ranks for so long? He knows the region obviously but does he still know the right people at the schools? He's 62 years old. Kerry's a football guy so he'll probably go at it until he can't but it does make you wonder if he's still effective as a recruiter OR whether Satterfield is just going to ignore the tristate area.

Going back to what I posted previously, Satterfield had 3 guys from the entire state of OH on the Louisville roster that I can track and one of them was Luke Kandra who transferred home. There are two Ohio players left on the UofL roster. An OL from Mason and a guy from Perrysburg.

Brohm did recruit Ohio when he was at Purdue. I don't think he was terribly successful at it but guys we were chasing in past classes also got Purdue offers in a lot of instances. I bring this up because you don't want to cede territory to other regional schools in recruiting if you can help it.
