Gunner Stockton: The got-to-know stories about the new Bulldog
What sort of player and person did Georgia just add to the program in the 2022 class? DawgNation has compiled the 2-3 stories you have to know about Stockton with him now on his way to UGA.
Comments
You might want to edit the video...he is no longer a South Carolina commitment.
I'm speechless. This is awesome but how are we going to be able to keep, Brock and Gunner for the two years they are together before Brock turns pro?
Wow, I still can't believe we grabbed him but getting high profile QBs to commit seems to be our forte. There's probably not a more appropriate name for a powerful QB than Gunner.
I love Smart, but... What are the chances both him and Brock are still on the team in 2 years. Honestly, I'd say there's probably a higher percent chance that neither are on the team. Oh well. If that happens, Kirby will just grab some more from the Transfer portal.
I'm still in shock though. Amazing news.
Some of these "how are we going to keep both Vandagriff and Stockton" comments?
Stockton clearly 'according to his own words' has the right attitude, and is seemingly willing to wait his turn, while earning the position.
That was not the attitude of Justin Fields. People seem to forget, or fail to realize that Fields would likely have never transferred had it not been for the NCAA giving him a 'special' transfer waver.
Fields left Ga because he didn't have the patience to learn it, and earn it well enough to beat out Jake Fromm. And because he was handed the starting position by Ohio St and the NCAA.
Even if one of them does eventually transfer, there will be another highly rated QB in line for Georgia. Why not be grateful for the QB room that Ga now has.
Why would anyone just assume that Brock beats out Gunner? I'm glad we have both or should have, if commitments are kept, but if JT starts and plays all year then Brock learns the offense and in that sense could be considered slightly ahead of the mental stuff but that doesn't mean he gets the nod and the other guy "waits his turn." No one told that to Trevor Lawrence, as a matter of fact Clemson already had a guy in the system who had been successful, but Lawrence's talent won out, the other guy transferred, the rest is history.
The 2022 Spring game should be epic! RS Freshman BVG and Freshman Gunner slinging it out!
Brock may be the guy, may be a better leader, he seems to be more outspoken that Gunner, a natural born leader and maybe with his throwing talent and physical strength that translates to winning the job. But for my money , Gunner's passing leaps off the screen in video. HIs arm talent and running ability are better than Brock's. Brocks delivery is a little bit baseballish, (wind-up) IMO.
Gunner has better technique, quicker delivery and if you look at Brock's throws(as in 30-40) you will see times when his passes come out wobbly. I didn't see that one time with Gunner's passes in the tape provided in the first announcement.
Why should Gunner wait 3 years to get "his turn" if he is the better QB? Doesn't make sense. Maybe good for UGA if they were both equal in terms of Brock gets 3 years and Gunner redshirts and he gets 2 years, (that is if Brock leaves in 3 after redshirting in 2021).
What if Brock wants to play his senior year, then Gunner accepts 1 year of starting? LOL! Dream on.
