“Georgia was my first love, and I will make up my mind at the end,” Bowman told the AJC on Friday night. “I’m still committed to Alabama. But I have to consider all my options … anything could happen.”

Great time (sarcasm) for UGA to start to recruit

I'm not one to worry about recruits changing their mind, most I believe will hold firm, including Trent who everyone seems to worry about.

But this is one I definitely raise a red flag about, I have never been too sure about Bowman. Hopefully he looks at the fact that they wanted nothing to do with him earlier, and we came along and took our chances with him and his grades when his "first love" would not.

He seems to be singing a different tune than when UGA wasn't interested and he committed to Bama. He said he was Bama all the way and wouldn't consider UGA if they did offer him later.
Hey, if he'd that much rather be at UGA that is where he should go. It will leave room for another of the top rated WR's or LB's on our board!!!

In the end I think he'll see that Bama is where he will get his national championship ring.

It'll be interesting to see the UGA fans reaction if he ends up changing his mind and signs with UGA.

When he declared that Bama was his school, UGA fans viewed him as an unintelligent talent who would never qualify and vilified Bama as a team that put a premium on wins over an education for athletes.

My guess is that they'll change their tune if he signs with the Dawgs.

I read this as well.

Bowman was very adamant that was going to Alabama and would not consider Georgia.

Based on things that he has said in the past I think that there is a chance that he goes with UGA, if they make him the right offer. If UGA does make him a decent offer I think that means that they are losing ground on other players. They have very little wiggle room in this years class also.

He has great hands and IMO is underrated. I really hope he stays, I think it is the best decision for him to play at BAMA. But, I agree with you, If he goes to UGA we have another slot for some other quality player and they are standing in line for the opportunity. What a nice position to be in.

RTR!

I think this probably means that UGA must not like their chances with WR Marlon Brown and now they want to pursue Bowman. I doubt he switches after reading his comments since he has been committed to Bama. I think if anything changes with his commitment it would be because too many other top receivers commit to Bama between now and NSD.

I read where UT's new HC (CLK) has already visited Marlon Brown and considers him a MUST GET for UcheaT. Since CLK consider him to be that important the tinisee mafia will probably put the pressure on him to stay in state.

I would be highly surprised if he changed his commitment to UGA. Someone can correct me on this if I am wrong, but his older brother played for OK ST.

Last year or the year before when OK ST. went to Athens to play the family took an unofficial visit so there son (Michael) could really see the game day and UGA is/was his favorite team. So, anyway they showed up and of course Mom and on some things supporting her son who played for OSU. Anyways when all was said and done the parents and especially the Mom were very unhappy with the way they were treated by the recruit host and with the fans that they had to deal with.

There was a big deal made about in the AJC and CMR actually came out and apologized to the parents if I'm not mistaken. But you know how Moms are they never forget anything.

I wouldn't get too worked up just yet. JMO.


RTR!!

We need all the scholarships we can get. If he wants to go to Georgia, we will just have to get some other 4 star to replace him.
