Why do I have the feeling Lane Kiffin is about to offer him?

A 9 year old committing to a high school is totally normal.

“And Georgia fans, don’t be turds. Enjoy this. Soak it up. It’s awesome. If you don’t win this year, it’s still not a failure. It’s a heck of a run. Back-to-back in the Playoff era hasn’t been done. So, to ask for a third I feel like it’s gluttonous. I feel like it’s not OK. But we’ll be in the mix.”-- David Pollack, On3.com, 5/9/23
Like, uh, where does this kid live? Is choosing your high school a thing in Georgia? Without moving to another district?

It’s not unless your parents move or send a kid to private school which makes this whole thing ridiculously stupid.

Maybe his parents decided to move to that HS district? He is 9.

Parents do that all the time to get their kids into a certain program. I don’t recall ever seeing a “Commitment” announcement about it, though. I’m with ee, this is just silly.

Most parents at a certain level have given up on or never had a plan. Just dreams. Their kid gets a look from a scout at 16 and they’re already spending that League money. They’ll move anywhere. It’s tough motivating that type of employee, I know.

This is so stupid. Can’t parents let their kids be kids instead of making them grow up faster and faster?
To the coaches at Grayson, is this a commitable offer?

My 2 year old is slated to commit to his preschool in a few weeks. We’re having a hat ceremony and everything because why not?

Praying there is a nice playground, sandbox and a good napping area in your childs future…

What is the preschool’s dedication to preparing 2 year olds for the Ivy League? You never can start too early.

Well, personally, I was a little miffed at Kirbs when he didn’t show up to sign my grandson when he was born right there in Athens a few years back! He weighed in almost 11 pounds! I guess they aren’t scouting the birth announcements yet.

Pretty soon we will be getting birth announcements or gender reveals (another out of control look at me moment) that include their commitment announcement.

The picture on the original tweet is great. Little dude looks plain fierce, except for having what appears to be a giant head.

That kid has a strong neck because it looks like that helmet weighs more than he does.

I was thinking that as well, but Maxpreps wouldn’t be involved? I’m not familiar enough with twitter to tell if it was a Maxpreps announcement or was sent to them.

it’s getting harder and harder for me to be a fan of middle school football as I watch the players exploited while not being able to profit off of their name, image, or likeness.

All I know is if this kid turns out to be a player, and he doesn’t go to Georgia, people will complain that we didn’t pursue him like Clemson/Auburn/Bama/whoever did.

If he’s going to Grayson, I wouldn’t expect him to end up in Athens. Grayson has become a pipeline for everyone but Georgia.
