Just got a commit from Devonte Wyatt

Was committed to USCe previously. 2017 Defensive Tackle. Dude is an athlete though.

For Reference...

Really nice pick up in an area of great need.

6-4 300lbs and runs a 40 in 4.6??? Shocked he was not more highly recruited, I'll take it for sure!

Doesn't seem to have been a big "camper". Do like that he came to UGA camp and competed in front of the coaches to get the offer. Looks to be a hell of a raw athlete - leaving it on the coaches to get him fully game ready. With the DTs that are available, I think this is a killer pickup. Particularly, since there are enough DL men from the 16 class that will have game experience, it's not like he'll need to come in to play a ton in year 1.

Jacoby Stevens announces soon(in the next hour). I see LSU or Bama but it'd be really nice to pull him in to the good guys. I won't hold my breath on a UGA pick though. Anyone have an idea on this one?

The LSU crystal balls started rolling in heavily and seemingly out of nowhere. Given the prior commitment thare + the CBs, I'm guessing there until proven wrong. 99% likely it's not us at this time.

His dad got involved with his recruitment over the summer and that's about the time he stopped answering calls from Lecounte and the staff.

Yeah, had heard the same though haven't seen that confirmed anywhere, just some speculation from "insiders". Does not surprise me at all though. I still think for him, it won't be over until February, no matter who he commits to today.

Guessing Stephens goes LSU... and LSU jumps us in the rankings. Hoping jump back over them soon when Swift and Webb decide

He's going to be on the market again if Les gets canned.

Not to be a rain cloud and pile on after Stevens, but lots of CB's over the last 24 hours for AJ Terrell to Clemson.

But solid pickup with Wyatt, had to get a body or two there, so that's good news. Always love seeing a Georgia boy choose to stay home and play ball

UGA has been slipping for Terrell all summer. Not sure why, but we're around 4th or 5th. We have some very good DB's already in the fold, but it looks like the top 2 corners in Georgia will end up in the palmetto state.

Assuming then that you see Gibbs as a safety due to his size?

Terrell I'm sort of whatever on. Williams I want really bad one minute and don't give a shite the next. He's very much so one of those guys that I want UGA to get simply so one of our rivals can't get him and find a way to make us regret not taking him. He is too good in spite of his size to not have a use at the college level. I just don't know what that use is just yet

Gibbs could play either but probably has a higher upside at Safety. Terrell and Williams are both true corners, in my opinion. I'd put Terrell slightly over Williams due to a couple factors (size being the main one), but it's close. Doubt we land either, though.


We really, really need to hang on to Brini now.

Exactly. Has all of the tools, but the recruiting buzz is that he is s very raw technique wise. Gotta give Muschamp credit. The guy does seem to have an eye for diamond in the rough type talent.
