Georgia’s rivalry with LSU this year may go beyond its Oct. 25 contest with the Tigers in Baton Rouge.
LSU continues to heavily recruit Emanuel County Institute junior defensive end Dexter Moody, who recently committed to the Dogs.
Moody, who is also being recruited by Clemson, Florida and South Carolina, admitted Tuesday night that he’s willing to listen to LSU.
“A coach from LSU called me about a week ago, but I was in class,” Moody said. “My coach talked to them. I haven’t had a chance to call them back, but I probably will.
“I’ll tell them I have committed to Georgia. But if they ask me to come visit, I’ll try to go out there and take a look, if possible.”
Moody, who was forced to skip Saturday’s junior day in Athens due to a scheduling conflict with a basketball game, said he speaks with a member of the Georgia coaching staff on a regular basis.
“It’s usually [defensive ends] coach Jon Fabris, most of the time, that calls me” Moody said.

Northside, Columbus junior defensive tackle John Drew committed to Georgia Tech on Monday.
“I knew when I met the coaches at Georgia Tech that they were some of the best coaches around,” Drew told Scout.com. “I talked to [recruiting coordinator] coach [Giff] Smith a lot. “He showed me how he runs the defensive line and how he prepares for games.
“I really loved his coaching style. Plus, we got along really well. In fact, all of the coaches were great. They are down to earth and make you feel wanted and a part of the team.”
The 6-foot-3, 295-pound Drew, who attended Tech’s junior day earlier this month, is also being recruited by Alabama, Auburn, Boston College, Clemson, Florida, Georgia, LSU, Mississippi State and Wake Forest.
