Spurrier Picking Peaches From Georgia's Fields

I was browsing through some of the blogs and news that I follow daily, and came across a piece in the AJC written by Michael Carvel. It was commenting on Steve Spurrier's raid on Georgia, by picking up 11 of his 28 commitments from the Peach State. It was actually a good blog and, while I agree with most of the comments to it about some of the kids not having offers in-state and that Carvell was making it look worse than it was, there were a couple of MORONIC posts on there...thought I'd share one with you. This was from a guy, who appropriately goes by the nickname "worm." 

"Wouldn’t consider that a RAID..South Carolina always has to go out of state because of Clemson and the weak SC high schools..." Worm.

My response was: WORM, do you really believe that comment? Which team in
Georgia would you put on the field against Byrnes? Oh, wait, you guys tried that last season. “Weak?” How’s this for weak…2009: Alshon Jeffrey; 2010: Marcus Lattimore; 2011: Jadaveon Clowney…not to mention the cherry picks you got from South Carolina, like A.J. Green. Give Carvell a break…he’s calling it like he see’s it; and as long as these kids get an education, who cares about them leaving the border.

As for the weak "teams" how could you possibly say that when this state finished with EIGHT teams in the Rivalshigh Top 100 and the Peach State finished with four? Something about anonymity that encourages the spew of moronic - or at the very least, not very well thought out - comments from those who hide behind the security blanket of the screen name.

C'mon guys...do some research before you blow your top.
