The nine ways how the Ole Miss win amplifies Georgia football recruiting

It is always good to hear such positive things coming off a big win and awesome environment. In an age it is so difficult to win guys bc of nil you still need every advantage you can get. A lot of in state kids are selling out for insane bags more recently than ever, but we still continue to bring in great talent. What is different about georgia is this year we are really inexperienced. Even a lot of the older guys have not played meaningful snaps before this year. We continue to pull out wins in a year that most teams end up dropping these games. Its easy to lose site of reality with our recent run of success, but that type of team building is no longer possible and we were always do for the reset that happens to team every 3-5 years where you just have more positions you have to break in inexperienced players. Continue to fight, maintain your culture, whether the learning curve and continue to win and as each game goes by things will trend better amd better. Happy to hear that kids are still seeing the true upside of Uga.
Playing devils advocate…imagine the dollar figure spent on recruiting only to deal with last minute flips and numerous feel the love but changed my mind 17 year old kids…then imagine that dollar figure spent on TP players who you have had a year or two to evaluate at the college level. Just food for thought…
What concerns me is I'm seeing a lot of 3* Offensive Lineman being recruited. I understand there could be a Jordan Davis story amongst them, but why not shoot for the moon and go after 4 and 5 Star O Linemen? Looks like we're not going to lose our standing as TE U anytime soon.
I realize Jeff just provided a snippet of the conversations with the recruits. But go back and read their responses again. The ones who referred to UGA as “WE” vs “THEY”. I’m guessing the We’s are a lock and the they’s could still be deciding.
Lots of 3 stars in attendance—are we turning into GT?
I don't think I would have written this article with all the three stars. You want to pickup one or two, but the rest should be four star at least. And I second the people below that say we shouldn't be picking up three star Offensive lineman.
Used to be that UGA competed with AL for 5* 's. Now UGA competing with FIU and VA Tech for 3*'s. Especially on the OL it seems. I guess prices have gone way up for HS players. Can't afford as many high end recruits as the pre NIL days. @Gramster brings up an interesting point. How much money to invest in recruiting a mass amount of players that will not attend UGA vs taking that money and just grocery shopping your needs from the TP?
