The University of Georgia is on its way to recruiting the best 2018 class to begin Kirby Smart’s third year as head coach.

On Wednesday, the nation’s no. 2 outside linebacker, Quay Walker, made a statement when he chose Georgia over Alabama and Tennessee.

The 4-star prospect from Crisp County, Ga., picked up the orange Tennessee hat and placed it on his head. However, the linebacker picked Georgia.

It’s a signing day video you have to see to believe.

Walker shared photos on his Twitter moments after his decision to continue his football career at UGA.
