Committed: Blount, Landers, Webb

I think the coaches would really like 4 but if we keep the 3 committed and those 2 targets both want to commit, they're not telling them no.

Not a peep that I've seen. I think you might have asked this one before. Literally no change since then. This is the last time I even saw his name mentioned in the UGA world: LINK / - And nothing regarding UGA interest there.

Wouldn't say no, but either we're not showing interest or he's not returning it as of right now.

I was reading an update last night at work where Solomon said Alabam is making a push and that he likes their business like approach. Article mentioned depth may be a factor in his decision.

No prob. Out of curiosity, how does a Bama guy end up out in Boise? I have a good friend out there who works at the university. Curious what else the heck is out there. Any reason to go visit?

I believe his ankle was actually injured going into the game. He tried to play through it and just re-aggravated it I think.

Not sure if you were linking that to the conversation about Aaron Sterling or just sharing. This would not surprise me at all though. Solomon's by no means a UGA lock. I think we have a good shot but we're going to have to show a lot this year on the field from a development standpoint IMO.

I apologize. I misinterpreted a tweet.

I'm relieved that I'm wrong.

Seems like there is some serious traction to us taking a 5th OL commit, and looking to hit big with it.

-Per 247 a few days ago, 5-star OT Walker Little (Bellaire, TX) will take an OV to UGA.
-About a month-ish ago, 5-star OT Isaiah Wilson (Brooklyn, NY) said he would use an OV to go to UGA.
-Though there really doesn't seem to be a remote chance, I would imagine the staff is still after 5-star OT Jedrick Wills (Lexington, KY) to give us an OV. He visited UGA over the summer, and seemed to enjoy the visit, but everything indicates he's looking harder elsewhere. Again, just a pipe dream, and that's about it.
-And the wildcard is 4-star OT Tony Gray (Loganville, GA/Grayson). Does anybody honestly know what he's thinking? Would think he would still OV to UGA.
-In addition, wouldn't be surprised (in fact it's a virtual certainty) that the staff is going after players committed elsewhere. At one point, there was talks of us trying to get 4-star OT and current Florida commit Kadeem Telfort (Miami, FL) to OV, but haven't seen anything about that recently...

I'd imagine, the order of likelihood (from least to greatest) would be something like

Jedrick Willis
Walker Little
Isaiah Wilson
Tony Gray
No more OL additions
Flip a kid currently committed elsewhere

Prospects really seem to love Sam Pittman, so nothing would surprise me if Pittman can get these guys on campus

We already have two 4-start offensive tackles and 4-star guard as well. All ranked in the top 150 prospects. I hope we get another big time tackle commit that is already a better offensive line haul than the last staff pulled in their last decade and maybe ever.

Aaron Sterling

Just saw he decommitted from you guys. On another board I follow the name came up as a possible UGA and USCe target, though I've seen nothing from anyone that I trust to give that impression yet. Also, if what I read was correct he decommitted after a trip to NC State? Seems odd that they would be a legit player for him if Bama offer wasn't getting pulled.
