What social media is saying about Georgia recruiting following Nate Frazier, KJ Bolden commitments
Even with Georgia in the midst of fall camp and readying for the 2023 football season, the Bulldogs were still busy on the recruiting trail.
Comments
I for one don't care to read anything on this site about a kid that committed to another school. He made his decision now let's move on from him.
The fretting over Bolden last weekend was way overwrought. Even then, we still had the No. 1 class in the country -- and that was before Frazier committed.
Plus, it's not like we don't have plenty of talent at DB, including at safety. Malaki must stay through '24, and if Bullard leaves, we'll still have Aguero -- who looks to be really special. Plus, per On3, we have a commitment from 2024's No. 4 S (Woodyard) and will likely to get one from the No. 5 S (Heyward) .
At almost all positions -- even at WR -- we're set for a quality roster deep into the depth chart. It would be truly grand to pick up Nwaneri/Houston/Breland at DL, Jordan Ross/KingJoseph Edwards at Edge, Chris Cole at LB, or Kam Mikell at CB. That could give this class records for top 100, top 200 or top 300 recruits ... or even all of those!
The position group that raises concerns for me is the OL. We've got three four-stars tackles coming in and one four-star center/guard. But for the last three years, we haven't been reeling on the big OL 5 stars (with the exception of Freeling who really shot up the charts late in the cycle).
I have the impression the Searles isn't quite as gifted a recruiter as Luke and Pittman were. He seems to be more than making up for that with talent evaluation and development, and this year's line may turn out to be our best yet. But I'd feel a bit more secure about the line for the next few years if Searles could anchor our next class with a couple of gigantic, can't-miss prospects.
Time to Move On from KJ! C 'Ya!
We got the best RBs in the Nation coming!
GO DAWGS!
How much room is left in the class?
Glad to see another top RB commit...we needed that.
CandlerPark, According to 247Sports there's only one Five Star OT in the 2024 class, #1 Brandon Baker at 6-5 / 285 from Mater Dei High School in Santa Ana, California, he hasn't committed yet, but he has Georgia as one of his final picks, so we do have a chance with him, but we do have the #4 at 6-6.5 / 365, #10 at 6-8 / 360, #14 at 6-7 / 335, #17 at 6-5.5 / 335, and #30 at 6-7.5 / 336 OTs in the 2024 Class, and Monroe Freeling was ranked #6 and a 4 star, and we also signed Bo Hughley who was Ranked #10 in the 2023 Class and a 4 star, this is Stacy Searels 3rd year at Georgia, and he's done a great job recruiting this year, so I'm not sure why the concerned with our O-Line, they were the best O-Line in College football the last two years, even though they didn't get the Joe Moore Award.
Dell McGee's tweet sez it all.....when The Dawgs are looking for a running back it's size, speed, CHARACTER, power. When dealing with high school skill position"stars", maturity which is a keystone of character and is an absolute necessity! Very few HS stars possess the maturity required to handle becoming a DAWG. To their credit, Kirby and Company do a great job of extinguishing the glitz and glitter of being a part of a championship program and truthfully express the reality to every recruit what will be required......"eat off the floor" and as someone already said, "it ain't for everybody"! The DAWGS absolutely should always recruit Georgia HS talent! Schools in Gwinnett County/Atlanta area are fortunate to have a large populations to "weed through" to draw from. On the HS level, its easy to find enough skill talent to rule 7-A, but very few of these young men (applies to all male HS grads) are mature enough to make personal decisions based on long range goals as opposed to rewards now and are willing to surrender self for the greater good of a TEAM. If your players don't have CHARACTER, your team will not have a winning CULTURE.
P/S.....If the recruit is consumed with social media, best to move on.
Statistically, it is highly improbably that zero 5-star HS players out of Gwinnett desert their state's flagship university and double national championship football team. Either one or more opinion leaders in the county or else an institution is causing this. So who (or what) is it? I bet the UGA coaches know but will not divulge The Problem...
It is a real shame for all involved.
You are so right 78Dawg...some on here want to keep talking about him. I think moving on is best for all parties involved.
We should be celebrating getting the next stud RB instead DAWGNATION continues to pump out articles about a kid not even committed here. DAWGNATION you can do better supporting your home team!
It’s looking like Nwaneri is going to Mizzou as of todays predictions and Houston to OSU and Breland to LSU, so I’m not counting on them being in this class.
That's exactly what it is...Gwinnett needs to replace some football coaches. That's who usually has the biggest impact. If he's an FSU Alum (whatever) then there's your connection. There used to be a direct line from Valdosta and Wayne Co. High School used to UGA. And, Benedictine to Ga Tech. That's what we need to do in Gwinnett.
I just wonder if Saban's ready to throw in the towel, yet? Yeah...he just signed the #1 Class last year...but...he got most of "Kirby's Rejects". Lol...I think he's just gilding the Lilly for the next coach.
Lol...Smh...Drink keeps gettin' players, but, can't do anything with em. Guess he wasn't listening when Kirby explained the process. It's 50% players...25% Facitities...and 25% "Coaching".
I think we get Breland but that's just a hunch. Maybe it was the Go Dawgs tweet Breland put out on X yesterday and the fact he was in the room with his teammate Nate Frazier. Just a hunch...he's gonna be a DAWG!
