If Jamal is anything like his daddy was, then he's one beast we need to sign.
George is my all time favorite running back for UK! I got interested in UK football while he was the #1 back. I used to go to the games with my stepdad as he worked the concession stands for the 101 committee. In those days they had some aluminum bleachers on the sideline (on the field) I got to sit in those seats for all the games and saw some really hard hits up close. George could lay a hit.
Hope his son comes here to play.
In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice; In practice, there is.
The choices we make today, affect the choices we can make tomorrow.
hearing George is close to Joker.

They would have played together at UK back in the 1980's, so that is probably right.Originally Posted by wizard
George Adams was a great running back. He had a great career at UK and was a first round draft pick. A devastating leg injury derailed what could've been a very solid NFL career.
George Adams was Joker Phillips' roommate at UK, Phillips was the best man at Adams' wedding, and Phillips is Jamal Adams' godfather. Florida has offered a scholarship to him.
George Adams was from Lexington originally. I don't know how strong his connections to Kentucky are currently.
George Adams, Mark Higgs, Ivy Joe Hunter and Marc Logan in the backfield, Bill Ransdell at QB, Joker Phillips at WR, Paul Calhoun at both safety and punter, Joey Worley kicking, John Grimlsey, Cam Jacobs, Oliver White, Maurice Douglass...those Claiborne teams in the early to mid 1980s had some really good, really underrated players who are certainly underappreciated today, IMO.
With this list you cannot leave off Dermontti Dawson. I played at Bryan Station with Marc Logan, Cornell Burbage and Dermontti Dawason. To me all 3 real strong UK Players of the 80's.
Theodore Roosevelt: "Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit soft."
Bama offered Elam yesterday.
UK and bama are tied at the top of his list at this point.

FWIW, Pettway flipped from FSU to Auburn.
When can we start offering 2015 kids?

I'm not aware of any limit on how early you can offer. Guess you could off a kid in dippers if you wanted to.
Many 2016 kids have offers now
4* WR Blake Bone has cut his list to 5: South Carolina, UNC, Ole Miss, UT and UK. He is from South Carolina, so they might have the edge, but at least our schools made the final cut!
With the new off. we're going to be running, we sure could use him.

that's a little hard to read with these old eyes.

Surprised we are not hitting Texas harder with the number of our coaches that have spent time down there.
