Trussville (Ala.) Hewitt-Trussville four-star defensive lineman
Eric Taylor is up to 21 offers after adding Georgia Tech, Texas A&M, Virginia Tech to his list last week.He said a long list of schools are recruiting him hard at this time, including Alabama, Auburn, Florida State, Georgia and LSU.
The No. 15 defensive tackle in the 2020 class is starting to set up visits early in 2019 and the first one went to Georgia. He was in Athens for the second time a couple of weeks ago and the Bulldogs impressed.
"I had been to Georgia once before for a practice last spring and it was nice," said Taylor. "I wanted to get back, spend more time with the coaches and get to know them better and I did that this time.
"This was probably one of my favorite visits so far because of all the love I received from the coaches and some of the players. The coaches were saying how excited they were to see me at the university of Georgia. It was great."
He was in Tuscaloosa recently, and it was his second time at Alabama as well.
"I was at Alabama for the Iron Bowl and that was a great visit. This visit was really good too. I really like Alabama's defensive line success and how they always get guys drafted.
The next visit is to LSU. He was at a game in Baton Rouge in the fall, so he has an idea about what the Tigers are all about.
"I like LSU's history. They always have a good defense and I love the atmosphere there. I was there for the Mississippi State game and the crowd was super loud. It was crazy.
"I am visiting them again in February."
It is still early for Taylor, the top 10 prospect in the Yellowhammer State, but by August, he plans to be committed.
"I do think I will be committed before the beginning of the season," said Taylor. I am still open to everybody right now, so I do not have a leader or anything, but I do want to be committed before my senior season.
"I could take at least some of my official visits during the spring. I am not to who yet though.
"All these visits are important to me because I will pick the school I feel I fit in best at. I want to be good in the defensive scheme, be used well at defensive tackle and things like that, so I will be looking at all of that when I am on visits."
His mother will play a big role too. Those two are very close and she is often by his side when on the road.
"I will listen to my mom too," said Taylor. "She is part of the decision. She is always with me on the visits and as soon as we leave, we talk about the visit, the school and things like that.
"She is from Athens, so she likes Georgia a lot, but we talk about all the schools."
Taylor said he will begin to cut his list down in the "coming months".
Schools have taken notice of Cody Brown, a 5-foot-11, 214 pound sophomore running back at Lilburn (Ga.) Parkview.
After running for 1,600 yards and scoring 25 touchdowns in 2018, Brown is starting to pick up some big offers.
Schools like Auburn, LSU, Michigan State, South Carolina and now Georgia have offered the 2021 powerful running back and the new offers are just adding more fuel to the fire.
"It is really exciting to be getting these offers and it is just making me work that much harder," said Brown. "I can't just settle. I have never been that way. I am glad I have the offers, but it is just going to push me that much more."
He had coaches from Auburn and South Carolina working to get him on campus just before signing day, but instead, he stayed home and traveled less than an hour to visit Georgia.
It was at that time that the Bulldogs offered.
"It was my first visit to Georgia as a recruit and it was awesome. I got to see a lot of things there and I really like the Strength and Conditioning program. Those coaches have great energy, they take it very serious and that really stood out.
"I spent a lot of time with coach [Dell] McGee and he is the coach who offered me. He said that I am the perfect fit for what they are looking for and he really likes what he sees in me. Georgia had been by the school a few times, so the offer really wasn't a surprise."
The home-state Bulldogs are high on Brown's list, but a school a little northeast of Athens that just won another National Championship has his attention too, despite not offering yet.
"I grew up a Georgia fan with them being close to home and all that, but as I got older, I really started to like Clemson a lot," said Brown. "I was up there for a game during the season and I will be going back.
"They do not offer guys my age, so I have been talking with coach [Mickey] Conn, my recruiting coach and I know they have a lot of interest in me. Clemson is about greatness and I really like that as well as their tradition and their coaches.
"Clemson and Georgia are two schools I like a lot."
Brown’s next visit is to Auburn (March 2) and he is in the process of scheduling visits to Georgia Tech and South Carolina. He visited Auburn his freshman year and he liked what he saw. He spent time in Atlanta back in the spring, but has not gotten to know the new staff on the Flats much yet.
As he grinds in the off-season preparing for a big junior campaign, Brown could see himself making a decision next year. He is not set on that, but it is a possibility.
"I am looking to see where I fit best right now," said Brown. "I am searching for the school that feels like home. If I find it, I could see myself committing my junior year. That is what I am thinking right now.
"I just have to take more visits and see more places."
LAGRANGE, Ga. – The Georgia Bulldogs and Auburn Tigers are no strangers to recruiting battles.

A little less than a week ago, the Georgia Bulldogs flipped longtime Auburn WR Commit George Pickens on national signing day. UGA staff worked Pickens hard for months and was in home with him every week they could be during the open recruiting periods. It paid off with a five-star flip last Wednesday.
There could be another battle brewing for an elite Auburn WR commit in the 2020 class in Troup County athlete Kobe Hudson.
He told 247Sports on Monday, that Georgia is a team turning up the heat on him.
“Georgia is on me pretty heavy,” Hudson said.”I have been talking to them a lot. I am going back up there in two weeks.”
Dell McGee is the lead recruiter for Georgia and Hudson says that is big factor for the Bulldogs right now.
“We talk all the time man, we have a real good relationship,” he said.
Hudson has been committed to Auburn for 10 months now and he says something big would have to change for him to ultimately not end up on the plains.
“For me not to go to Auburn, Gus (Malzahn) would have to leave honestly,” he said.”I have a real close relationship with him, he is like my second head coach, with coach G (Coach Glisson) here.”
After having a big junior season moving over to play QB , there was some talk of him playing that on the next level, but Hudson says that not the case for him.
“There was some potential for me to play quarterback, but I want to play wide receiver in college,” he said.
Hudson will play his senior season at Troup County and will be an early graduate in December.
I know he is only a freshman and only got to play in one game last year because of an injury, but 2022 athlete Jake Johnson was really good at MVP Camp. His older brother Max is committed to LSU, but I don’t think it will play that much of a role in his decision down the line with the difference in age. Jake is legit, 6-4 and made several plays yesterday that should elite ball skills. He has great hands and will only get better working a lot in the off season.

Who is our QB of the future ?? 2020 recruit or D Mathis ?
I really hope we get more instate guys this year although UGA is a national brand now
Want best available at positions of need. If that means Ga boys, great. If that means kids from Philly, doesn't bother me one bit.
I think that’s the plan for 2020
I believe, at this point, it’s a bit early to say. Both will likely redshirt though and there will be separation between the two.
