16+1+11= 28 and doesn't include names like Herring/Cleveland/Kindley/Robertson/LeCounte/Daniels/Johnson/Beal/Grant
Just because a guy doesn't set the world on fire doesn't mean he won't test the NFL waters as soon as possible. Leaving any of the above names out of a discussion on possible departures from the team would be negligent. Not suggesting that I have any inside info as to whether any of these guys will leave, just saying that they are eligible in addition to the names previously mentioned.
To be honest I’m actually surprised more players behind on the depth chart haven’t been portaled yet. Second and third year players.
100% agree. Speaks to the culture the staff has created where competition has obviously been embraced. I’ve heard mention of ~ 5 names that could test the portal and only one has done so at this point.
Compare that to the mass exodus that has plagued schools such as VT or PSU this year and it’s clear we’re in good hands under Kirby. On pace to be the best HC in program history after he captures the title this year...first of several I hope.
Well, coaches certainly aren't going to push them towards the portal, especially if they're working hard and buying in.
And there are guys who love playing for Georgia and aren't interested in entering the portal.
But in reality we can probably expect 8-10 guys per class to not finish at Georgia - either by transfer, discipline, injury or grades. Just part of it.

I certainly believe that at least 25 scholarships will be vacated before this time next year although I don't think the number of early NFL are going to be anywhere close to the 13 you suggest possible. That's why I have been saying that the class size will be constrained by the 25 annual limit of which we have already used 2. Assuming that Holloman is not replaced, or at least not in a way that further reduces our 2020 signing class, I see us taking 23 positional players and having Zirkel enroll on the first day of fall practice 2020 as the first member of our 2021 class. The only other that I am aware of is Joseph who has already been counted as a 2018 recruit. That is about the only way we get to 25 unless we have another blue shirt such as a a Grad Transfer or someone like Harris who could come in also on first day of fall practice (it may take that long to qualify given the late reclass to 20) and also be a 2021 recruit.
Buying in waiting their turn. You only need one good year to be found by the NFL eyes. Keep building that quality depth.
Oh and almost forgot about Holloman until just mentioned in that last post. What a time to be a dawg when you can lose a star player and forget about it a few weeks later. So much talent on this team it’s unreal.
So do we expect anyone to commit before Kendall Milton in the 29th? I’ll guess that we don’t
SVP ?
Van Pelt seems a little too skinny to hold up against the daily grind of SEC football
Looks like the wrong sort of Guard to me
What about a decommitment before Milton announcement ? Gonna go with a gut feeling JB will be going to LSU
How long can we keep the 25 vs 23 spots debate going? I've only seen one poster state that Cager and Wolf count towards the 20 class. Can anyone else confirm that?
I think we have 30 scholarships to fill by the end of spring practice 2020 (before non-EE 2020 recruits enroll). The 85 number is the only number NCAA really cares about. The 25 number is unrealistic in today’s day of the transfer portal and the ever increasing number of early entrants to the NFL Draft.
The number of commits conversation always lasts until NSD in February. So, only 7 more months, then we start over for how many in the 21' class.
You mean 2021 right 😉
