If KJ Bolden were a 5-star recruit now, would Georgia still land him?

If KJ Bolden were a 5-star recruit now, would Georgia still land him?
ATHENS — KJ Bolden has been everything Kirby Smart wanted.

He is an exception to the rule! 90% of the 5 stars want to $ NIL and a good team. UGA will continue to get the outliers like KJ, but they are are a 1% recruit these days. We live and die on the development hill!
This is where I believe Kirby and his staff do their due diligence in evaluating a recruit. I believe they ask all the right questions beforehand to find out what is in their head. Do they want to get an education for their future. Is it getting coached up in hopes of an NFL career. Many factors, I believe, go into getting a recruits signature. My short answer is yes, UGA will continue to sign blue chip players. I want to believe there are still high quality athletes out there that want to be coached up and realize the money will come later. KJ is a perfect example. Go Dawgs!
Well, that all depends. Let me rephrase this poorly worded headline another way, If KJ Bolden were a 5-star recruit now WITH A DIFFERENT MINDSET THAN THE 5STAR THAT SIGNED A FEW YEARS AGO, would Georgia still land him? Even Captain Obvious can now answer that question.
Who knows or who cares? We got him.
