It’s time for this week’s Recruiting “Hot Topics” with WSB-TV’s Zach Klein. Among this week’s topics:
How does Stephenson High School have so many kids sign D1 scholarships year after year after year?
How good is UGA commit Kendall Baker of Marist high school? Will he play defensive line or offensive line in college?
And what about UGA defensive lineman commit Dontavius Russell of Carrollton High School? He may be the state’s best prospect that almost nobody is talking about. Why is that? There’s a good theory.
Finally, one of the state’s top uncommitted prospects is Dante Sawyer, the defensive end from North Gwinnett High School. He was rumored to be on the brink of committing to Alabama or UGA last spring, and now some other SEC schools appear to be frontrunners. What’s going on?
Tailback J.J. Green said he can’t say for sure how many times he has heard “you’re one play away from playing” from Georgia offensive coordinator Mike Bobo and running backs coach Bryan McClendon.
Here is a clue that your trip to sunny south Florida may not be a carefree vacation: You’re a football team, and you lose one of your starters during warm-ups.
If nothing else, Georgia has ensured at least one thing about its season. Regardless of where the rest of the schedule takes them, whether its to an SEC championship, a BCS bowl bid or a national title, there will be no claims from outsiders that this team received too many breaks and escaped health issues, no suggestions that the road to success was lined with lollipops and unicorns.
Having been at Georgia four seasons now, soccer coach Steve Holeman doesn’t weird out nearly as much as he once did about playing Ole Miss, where he coached for 15 years.
