Georgia football lands wide receiver Dominic Lovett from transfer portal
Georgia has added to its wide receiver room in a big way, as the Bulldogs pulled Missouri wide receiver Dominic Lovett from the transfer portal.

Looks like portal fishing is very good. Lovett gave UGA fits during the season. He should be a strong contender to start next go round. Mizzou's loss. He was their #1 receiver. Welcome!
We're definitely going to have a FULL WR room!
Any word on signing previously committed 4-star wide receiver Raymond Cottrell?? Tomorrow is the last day for early signing.
Regardless of whom the QB1 will be next year, that whole room has to be excited with what they’re getting next year. Go Dawgs!
Welcome to the "G" time to go vertical time to get elite. Christmas came early this year. Go Dawgz, Sic'em.😎
Suffice it to say the Dawgs plan to throw it around the yard quite a bit next year, and I'm here for it. @MontanaDawg it wouldn't surprise me if Cottrell finds a home elsewhere. Maybe he's been told by the coaching staff to wait until after UGA sees what WRs opt to leave after the playoffs, but hard to see him feeling as needed as he may have as recently as two days ago. But what about that O-Lineman, Merriweather? Anyone know what's up with him?
Wow !!! Great Get by Kirby and staff !!! I’ve been dealing with some med stuff and had missed that we also got RaRa Thomas in addition to Lovett !!! With what the guys already in the program, the new guys from HS, and these two veterans Dawgs should have a powerful WR room and we won’t even get into TEs, and RBs capable of catching the ball out of the backfield !!! Let’s win Another Natty and proceed on the journey to a Triple Crown !!! Go Dawgs !!!
UGA fans. there may be some more good news coming in this class for UGA. Stay patient and watch. There may also be some more good news on top of the two WR portal transfers with another high quality defensive transfer to UGA. Things are looking really good. Hope it all works out.
I’m greedy but Cottrell is a fantastic looking receiver if you watch his tape. Nothing wrong with waiting a year(if need be)to strut your stuff. Maybe redshirt and then ball out.
Hope you’re doing okay! I’ve been cooped up with the flu for two days, and although it could be much worse, I wouldn’t wish this on anyone.
Go Dawgs!
Dang, we gained the #4 (Lovett) and #14 (Ra Ra) ranked receivers in the SEC this season. That means next year we will have 4 of the top 14 receivers in the SEC with Ladd and Brock. To put in perspective, Bama’s best receivers were #15 and #19 (Burton). Yikes!!! Go Dawgs!!!
Oh man I’m sorry to hear that my Brother !! Prayers for you a full and speedy recovery. I’ve got a chronic type of leukemia ( yes there is such a thing). It’s called CLL Chronic Lymphocitic Leukemia. It’s mutated immature white blood cells that crowd out healthy white blood cells and red blood cells. The Good news is most people live a long time with it. The Bad news is under current science there is no cure. Now those bad white bloods cells have began to clump and form nodules in my lymph glands of various sizes. So my oncologist told me I now have both CLL and CSCL Chronic Small Cell Lymphoma. So my immune system is weaker than a normal person. So I went yesterday and had a Ton of CT scans with and without contrast dye from my neck just under my skull all the way down to my lower groin. Also ultra sounds on my neck. I have other med issues that aggravate the cancer like Pernicious Anemia. Now I make all this sound terrible, But I have been Super Blessed !!! I mean Blessed to the Extreme !!! There are people Way, Way, Way, worse off than me !! And All in All I’ve done Very Good, ALL Praise to my Lord and Savior Christ Jesus !! And the medical pros He works through. I’m Still doing really well. Just kinda nervous as quite a few of the nodules have grown in size or at least it seems to Me they have. Plus I’m some what disappointed with my previous oncologist ( we recently moved to another location) there were quite a few things he failed to tell me, And he was not even close to being as thorough as this new oncologist has been in my very first visit to her a couple of weeks ago. I’m not mad at him or hold any malice, doctors and med pros are human, there for like All of us they make mistakes. I’m just disappointed. PLEASE keep me in your prayers, I have a follow up visit with her on Jan 25 when she will tell me what all she discovered. Oh and she had more blood drawn on me in my one visit to her so far than he did in about 4-5 visits. She gave me a Very thorough in office exam, where as he would only be a couple of minutes. He’s retired now. As I was typing this I lifted a Prayer to the Lord for you. Please keep me posted as how your doing. Sorry your going through this at Any time, but Especially here at Christmas !! Merry Christmas to You and Family !!!
Would Sure make any of our QBs that are thinking of transferring Stop and think when they consider the WR room now, not to mention the TE room, the RB room ( in This Offense) and what Should be an Excellent O Line !! If I’m one of those QBs and I Believe in myself, I’d want to stay and fight for the best slot I can get !! AND Kirby & Co might not be done with that position yet !! Go Dawgs !!
Prayers for you and your family NavyDawg!
Dang NavyDawg….sorry to hear you are dealing with all those health issues. Hang-in-there pal because we’ve got a lot of BullDawg football to take in…..and now we have the best WR room in the SEC. Stay safe and I hope Santa comes to see you. Go Dawgs!!!
Awesome. The lack of high profile WRs has really been something missing over the years as we would grab top QBs and they'd have no one to throw to. Now, that's rapidly changing and that's going to work amazingly well with Beck, Vandagriff and Stockton. They'd be fools to leave now. Great WRs have always made good Bama QBs seem like superstars. They turn incomplete passes into TDs.
Very exciting!
Now, I will state that it's no surprise that we haven't had any transfers yet. We are in the playoffs. No one wants to jump ship with a shot at being at the NC. We will see where we stand around mid January.
Welcome Aboard!!!
This prompts me to wonder what our WR depth chart will look like next year.
If I had to bet on it, I'd expect McConkey, Rosemy-Jacksaint, maybe Bell, Mitchell, Lovett and Thomas to compete for the first-team (assuming we'd be running with three WRs). That would leave A. Smith, Morrissette, Speer, Mews and the three (or four) freshmen competing for third-team rotations.
This is a good thing.
But I do wonder if that depth -- combined with Bowers & company -- means we'll see one or two WRs transferring out in the spring. I'd hate to see any of the guys in that first group (or, for that matter, Adrian Smith) leave UGA. Each one is a DGD and is capable of developing further.
But any way you cut it, we've now got an embarrassment of riches at WR. Congratulations to Coach McClendon for bolstering this group!
And as of yet , we can’t count out K. Jackson and D. Blaylock. They each have another year of eligibility and could increase their draft stock if they stayed.
That being said, Coach Kirby may have sought out the two portal WRs knowing that those two may be moving on. We’ll see, I suspect.
But In Coach Kirby we [should] trust!
Go Dawgs!
Take care of yourself, my friend!
Will be praying for you and your family!
Have a very Merry Christmas!
