UGA QB commit shares his prospect wish list

Hockman has already embraced a "Pied Piper" role hoping to lure other top prospects to Athens. He's not going to be able to rattle off star ratings and class or position rankings by prospects, but he already knows the game. His father Kyle Hockman  is the head coach at McEachern. Bailey has looked at the game from a coach's perspective for quite some time now already.

“I knew what a Cover-2 was when I was six years old,” Hockman said. “I probably knew what all the coverages were when I was six years old.”

He was asked who would he choose if he could add any five Atlanta-area players he’s seen and competed against with him to Athens. The four-star prospect obliged by putting on that “Pied Piper” hat and firing up his flute.

What was the funny part? He couldn’t name just five guys. He rattled off six recruiting targets in 14 seconds.

“I am going to try to build this class and the team,” Hockman said. “Its not about me. Its about Georgia and getting the best players in this class that we can. I see a guy that can play and I’ll be like I want that guy to come play for Georgia, too. Its sort of like P.E. or playing in the park and ‘Oh, I want him to be on my team. He’s really good’ and that’s how I will approach it.

2017 UGA QB COMMIT BAILEY HOCKMAN’S MOST WANTED RECRUITS: 

(in no particular order)

— WR Kyle Davis, Archer (Class of 2016)

Why:  "This guy just might be my favorite," Hockman said. "I just think he's exactly what you want a receiver to look like and play like." (Check out the latest on his recruiting)

— ATH Mecole Hardman, Jr., Elbert County (Class of 2016)

Why: “He can really ball,” Hockman said. “Just put him on the field. He can do everything. What an athlete.”

—  CB DeAngelo Gibbs, Peachtree Ridge (Class of 2017)

Why: "He can just play and he's like my size," Hockman said. "Little bigger. He walks over there and your receiver is not getting off the line. He's a game-changer for sure. You look over there and your guy is on the sideline falling down and you think what do I do with this play now? He just breaks down everything." (Here's the latest recruiting dish with Gibbs)

— CB Jaymest Williams, Archer (Class of 2017)

Why: “Another great cover guy,” he said. “He’s my age. There’s a few Archer guys Georgia needs to sign, for sure. ”

— WR Tyler Simmons, McEachern (Class of 2016)

Why: “He can fly and he’s so strong,” Hockman said. “That’s an awesome combo for any receiver to have. He’s so strong. People don’t notice that about him enough.”

— WR Tyler Smith, McEachern (Class of 2017)

Why: “He has to be the smoothest receiver in and out of his routes that I have ever seen,” Hockman said. “I’ve been playing with him since I was five and receivers don’t do it any better than he does. You can’t cover either of the Tylers we have in our offense.”

Hockman is a quarterback so it was only natural for him to rattle off centers, guards, kickers, linebackers or punters. Cornerbacks and receivers are his world.

He was especially hopeful that the collection of Davis, Hardman and his two receivers at McEachern would wind up wearing red and black one day.

“If Georgia could sign those four guys then it would just be over with at receiver,” Hockman said. “All of those guys can fly. The receivers would be so fast. There would be nothing anybody could do to cover them all.”
