01-26-2013 Saturday Recruiting Thread (Visit Updates)

We have updates on the four key visitors that are visiting Athens this weekend. Among those visitors are Alvin Kamara, Reuben Foster, Montravius Adams, and Davin Bellamy. All four arrived in Athens last night and spent some time with UGA players. The UGA coaches will take over today and begin their meetings with these players. Here are the updates we have received.

Reuben Foster: Reuben and other visitors filed into Athens late last night. Reuben and his mother will spend today looking at Daycare’s for his daughter and exploring Athens for family activities. Reuben has stated several times that he has to do what is best for his daughter and what ever school provides that is the school he will attend. Foster will later meet with Coach O and after that will spend some one-on-one time with Coach Todd Grantham to try and “Finish The Drill”.  Foster spent Friday Night hanging with his host Tray Matthews and also hung with Swann, Herrera, and Corey Moore for a little while.

Alvin Kamara: Kamara got to Athens early last night and spent most of his night with running backs Todd Gurley and Keith Marshall. There was an on campus concert last night and the trio attended along with a couple other football players. They then spent some time downtown. Kamara will get some one-on-one attention today with Bobo and Richt. Today is make it or break it for Alvin Kamara to come to Athens.

Montravius Adams: Adams arrived in Athens with his mother and a couple others that figure to be family members. Adams has about 3 advisers that are involved in his recruiting process that are pushing him to Georgia. Adams spent some time with Ray Drew and some other UGA Football players. He is expected to have a one-on-one session with Coach Wilson this morning and then Grantham will meet with him this afternoon to show him some film and how he will be used in the defense. This is a big day for Adams.

Davin Bellamy: I have not received an update on Bellamy as of 10:00 am this morning. As soon as I get an update on him, I will update the article.

Come receive live updates of today right here, right now, in the below commenting area. We will provide you with everything we are hearing. Go Dawgs!!

By the way, you ever up in Cartersville?  I'm trying to quickly scan LHB and see you mention something about Cartersville.  My wife is from there and my in-laws still live there.

bigredballer 21718 pts moderator

Been a crazy day and I'm just now getting a chance to check in.  BRB is killing it with these updates!!!!  Sounds like we're hitting grand slams all over the place this weekend!  At this point, I don't care so much about getting the verbals.  Let's close the deal this weekend with these guys but have them give us some national pub by inking with UGA on signing day!!

bigredballer 21718 pts moderator

 natesdawgs I agree big dawg, glad you could make it on

7:00 Update: 

Reuben Foster spent this morning touring daycare's for his little girl with his mother. This afternoon he met with Coach O and also was able to tour his mom around campus. His mom absolutely loves it........and said multiple times throughout the day that this was the best visit she had been to with Reuben. Foster is now hanging out with Matthews, Shaq Wiggins, and a couple more EE's at UGA. Reuben will meet with both Grantham and Richt before returning home tomorrow morning. Grantham is looking to close the deal for Reuben and his mother.

 

Montravius Adams spent a LONG time with Coach Wilson. His mother had the opportunity to get to know Coach Wilson also and Montravius moms feelings have not changed. She feels UGA is the place for her son because of the family and laid back atmosphere that Mark Richt provides in Athens. Montravius will also meet with Grantham and Richt in the morning. UGA has taken the lead for Adams services.

 

Alvin Kamara: Kamara spent the morning with Coach Ball and Coach McClendon eating breakfast then was taken to Sanford Stadium with Coach Bobo. Bobo had a video prepared to play on the big Jumbo Board for Kamara of how he will be used in Athens. Kamara will meet with Richt and Bobo in the morning but UGA has rebounded nicely after Kamara's visit with Alabama. It would not surprise me one bit to see Kamara come to UGA now, and he was the one I was worried about most coming in.

 

Davin Bellamy: Davin spent some time with Coach WIlson this morning also. UGA could very well leave tomorrow as the leader for Bellamy even though he is committed to Florida State. Bellamy has always wanted to be a Georgia Bulldog and now UGA is finally showing Bellamy the love that he has always wanted. He has loved the atmosphere in Athens up to this point. He has spent time with many UGA Football players and we seen downtown having loads of fun last night by many people. Bellamy is once again spending time with UGA players tonight and expected to meet with Grantham and RIcht in the morning. 

 

That's what I got right now.......will update more when I hear

@bigredballer Thanks for the update. The moms seem to be the key. If the Dawgs land Tunsil, Adams, Johnson, and Foster, everything else would be icing on the cake.

bigredballer 21718 pts moderator

bigredballer 21718 pts moderator

@Raddawg @DostaDawg77 @ballparkga We believe so. Have no 100% confirmation on that, but that is the way it seems.
