DEL.ICIO.USPacelli junior OL thinks UGA offer may be out of reach

With Georgia’s young offensive line, Pacelli junior Taylor Dodds says an offer may be out of reach.
“UGA’s lineman are so young, I’m not sure if they are looking for any,” he said.
Of the five starters on UGA’s offensive line, three are sophomores (Cordy Glenn, Ben Jones and Justin Anderson). Clint Boling and Ben Jones are juniors.
The 6-foot-6, 240-pound Dodds is waiting patiently for his first offer. He wants to play college football and his dream school is UGA. He plays left tackle and defensive end for Pacelli.
“Coach Stacy Searles is somewhat of my idol,” he said. “I really respect the man and his method of coaching.”
Dodds said he hopes to make a college decision sometime during his senior year.

He should hand in there. His attitude is exactly what UGA is always looking for.

I understand that Tech went ahead and offered him in the third grade.

“Dawg Fan” is not a fan of the English language? Its “hang” in there, not “hand” in there - but not sure what you do with your “hands” (don’t want to know). UGA should sign at least 2 or 3 OL every year, so this is all a bit premature, but the AJC has to report something — inventing news, rather than reporting it.

…he can forget about the OLine in the SEC! Maybe a DE, but, not an O lineman!
