Five-star recruit Isaiah Crowell picks UGA

Five-star running back recruit Isaiah Crowell of Carver-Columbus picks UGA over Alabama.

Running back Isaiah Crowell leads Georgia's Dream Team of incoming recruits. They haven't shown anything on the college field yet, and the group's impact for Georgia is a big unknown entering the season.

Not only did the five-star recruit pick Georgia (while teammate Gabriel Wright chose Auburn)...

Five star recruit Isaiah Crowell (Carver-Columbus) pulled out a real, live bulldog puppy from under the table after making his college pick - the University of Georgia. It was my friend's dog, Crowell explained. I figured it'd be a good idea since he already had a dog.

Georgia coach Mark Richt said that Crowell could play in front of the real Uga in Georgia's first game of 2011 at the Georgia Dome against Boise State. "I wouldn't be shocked to see him running that rock in the Dome against Boise State on the opening play if he does what he's supposed to do, Richt said.

Crowell finished off the University of Georgia's recruiting "Dream Team" as Richt and his staff focused on getting the top in-state players to decide to play in Athens.

Five star recruit Isaiah Crowell announced he was coming to Athens by pulling out a real, live Bulldog Puppy in 2011. That was the moment that set the "Dream Team" into orbit.
