Sentell’s Intel: What does Georgia football look for in recruits at the EDGE position?

So, in the case of Wilson and M'Pemba, I don't think it was length or explosiveness…..amongst HS competition they had it….so was it physicality or versatility/mentality to embrace that "Jack" requirement…..maybe not, as I think it was all about the lack of that "Georgia Guy" attitude…..you place TEAM first, you work harder and more focused to earn a start and keep that designation and for sure if you get beat out fro the start, you do what it takes to support your team mate while you out perform him to recapture it.
Claude Humphrey and John Zook would be good examples of the "edge" position. Both were great at setting the edge and at rushing the QB.
GtheGreek—very well said. I feel like "Dirty" Dan Jackson personifies this mentality. I'll be forever indebted to him for beating the North Avenue Trade School for Boys!! GO DAWGS
