Georgia a “perfect fit” for Buford lineman

Buford junior defensive tackle Dallas Lee chose Georgia over programs such as Florida, Florida State and Tennessee on Saturday.

But the decision to commit to the Dogs was a difficult one.

“Yeah, it was pretty hard at first,” admitted Lee, who will likely play center or guard. “But Georgia turned out to be a perfect fit. They have everything in a school that I wanted.

“And I really like coach [Mark] Richt and [offensive line] coach [Stacy] Searels.

Lee broke the news of his commitment to Searels.

“I told him I want to play in Athens for the next four years,” Lee said.

Buford coach Jess Simpson is confident the Bulldog Nation will be excited to have Lee as part of its 2009 recruiting class.

“Georgia is getting an extra tough, hardnosed lineman,” Simpson said. “He’s a 6-foot-3, 300-pound kid who moves well and has great knowledge and understanding of the game.”
