This guy is a true beast!!! I hope UGA is able to land him. We need to keep our premiere talent in the state of Georgia.

STANFORD! Great choice, the best combination of academics and athletics in the country. Go Cardinal!

i remember when i meet this guy after his freshman season he would shut up about his 14 sack he got as a freshmen but when u think about it he was a lil freshman

P.S.... GO CARD!!

Smart decision. Go to Stanford, win a national championship, AND get an excellent education. One reason why Stanford has a difficult time recruiting is that even athletes are required to meet their rigorous admissions standards. Kudos to James Vaughn for showing his strength as both an athlete and a student.

i wonder if anyone that is commenting on James choice to go to Stanford actually know him like that. james is an extremely smart person, i would know because i sit next to him in AP Lit., and he picked Stanford because it's not only a good school academic wise, but for football too, quit overanalyzing things

Whoa whoa whoa dude... nobody was throwin insults around.

Dude im just sayin they don't play football as hard, nor do they train as hard. He'll have more time to study there.

My comment was about football, not academics. But just so you know, SEC schools don't "hand out" degrees, they award them. Vaughters chose Stanford because he can't be a star in the SEC if he wants to focus on maintaining a 4.0 too.
