Washington High’s Goodwin gets early offer from UGA

Booker T. Washington High’s Branden Smith is one of the nation’s most heavily-recruited cornerbacks. He said his teammate, wide receiver Antonio Goodwin, has just as much potential.

Goodwin, who is a rising junior, is virtually unknown on the recruiting circuit but picked up his first major-college offer from Georgia. The 6-foot-1, 170-pound speedster was offered by Georgia coach Mark Richt following the “Dawg Night” prospect camp.

“I knew [Goodwin] could do it, get the Georgia offer,” said Smith, who rooted on his teammate at the camp as an observer. “He’s a great player, and I think a lot more offers are coming. It’s just a matter of the word getting out about him.”

Forget about it Mutts, unless this kid has a record he will be playing at Tech. Johnson has slammed the door on the Dawgs getting the top talent in Georgia. The Gailey era is over, time for Tech domination to return.

UGA gonna keep getting the top stuff.. but what they don’t get ain’t going to Atlanta. It will go to other SEC schools … a small % will go ACC … and spread about equally between GT, FSU, and Clemson. A good step for PJ and Tech will be to consistently compete in their own conference… not only in games but in recruiting.
