Welcome Jermaine Burton!
(04-27-2024, 12:55 PM)casear2727 Wrote: I dont necessarily disagree.  But unless there is evidence of poor conduct triggering the transfers I think this is a ton of piling on.

My son attended a private middle school, then went to the corresponding catholic high school, he was accepted to McCallie and tried it out, like an idiot he didnt think it was for him so he came home and wanted to finish at the public high school.  That's 4 schools with zero character issues.

As to the wavering of college commitments he gave a verbal to Miami in his sophomore season, those never stick.  He then switched to LSU after they won the title in his junior season.  He ultimately chose UGA because his entire family is in Atlanta.


Again, the kid has had issues and I think it is a concern, Im just off on the transfer & college commitment stuff.

I think we're on the same page.  The only thing that makes it odd is the talent level.  Zac looked pretty psyched to get him despite all of these things.  That's good, but also a red flag to me.

Coaches go to great lengths to accommodate exceptional talent.  It sounds like at least two coaches with a lot of skins on the wall (Saban, Smart)  didn't love his emotional development.  Smart ran him out of Athens.  If a kid has Burton's alleged first round potential, wouldn't one of those guys have had a bit more tolerance for his antics?  Nick wasn't exactly singing his praises despite keeping him around.  How many coaches actually throw their former players under the bus like that?  I can see it in closed-door consultations, but publicly is a different deal.  

Burton has a strange vibe.  He's young enough to shed his reputation.  Hopefully the team keeps his leash short and gives him the resources he needs to make better decisions.
